So jealous over Wither! I want to read it so much.
I'm reading Unearthly this week and can't wait to get to it!
Time Of The Witches sounds interesting! That's a new title to me!
What a good week! I love the cover for Unearthly, I totally need to read it just because of that :)

We have completely differing tastes I think. I have not read any of these but will read the reviews as I enjoy finding new books. Have a fabulous week reading.
My Monday: http://www.rundpinne.com/2010/11/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-15.html
Can't wait to read Vixen thinking I may get to it this week. Also I hope you enjoy The Replacement. Loved it. Have a great week!
I hope they're all good reads. Kick looks interesting.
enjoy your new books; they look great.
The Replacement should be a good one - I love the cover! Happy reading!
The cover on the Replacement gives me the creeps - don't know why but it does. I hope you enjoy your new books.
I haven't read any of these books but will check out your reviews to see if I will like them.
My week can be found here.
I've had my eye on The Replacement for awhile...I'm eager to hear what you think of it.

The Replacement has been on my TBR pile WAY too long! Now you have me thinking of it again. This meme has me fast becoming Amazon's best customer LOL Thanks and you can find my mailbox here: http://blog.juliealindsey.com/
Great mailbox!
Here is my Monday: Mailbox/Whereabouts post!
I received for review Season of Seduction by Jennifer Haymore from The Book Tree.
Although the widowed Lady Rebecca has sworn off marriage, men are another matter. London's cold winter nights have her dreaming of warmer pursuits-like finding a lover to satisfy her hungry heart. Someone handsome, discreet, and most importantly as uninterested in marriage as she is. Someone like Jack Fulton.
A known adventurer and playboy, Jack seems like the perfect choice. There's just one problem: Jack isn't interested in an affair. He needs the beautiful, mysterious Lady Rebecca to be his wife. And he doesn't have much time to persuade her. A secret from Jack's past is about to surface, and by Christmas Day he'll be either married to Rebecca or dead.

I received for review A Very Simple Crime by Grant Jerkins from Berkley Trade.
A twisting debut novel of murder and dark family secrets from a riveting new voice in crime fiction.
A murdered woman. A grieving husband. And their son-a mentally handicapped adult with a history of violent outbursts. A very simple case. Or is it?
Leo Hewitt, an Assistant DA once blamed for setting free a notorious child-killer, is eager to redeem himself with this intimate and grisly crime. As he digs below the surface he discovers more than he ever anticipated-including an emotionally disturbed wife, a husband who'd do anything to escape his disastrous marriage, and an accused young man with no apparent means of defense. But with each shocking new revelation, Leo is only led deeper and deeper into the darkness-an inescapable trap of blood bonds and twisted family secrets.
The Replacement sounds really good. Happy reading!
I find the cover of The Replacement intriguing. Would like to see what you think of this book.
I have posted my own Mailbox and would appreciate a visit very much.
I've been looking forward to Secret Society! I'll have to check it out soon! Hope you have a great week!
Here's what I'm reading this week! Also, if you're interested, check out my latest giveaway
I haven't started Three Seconds yet but need to. I hope it is as good as it sounds.
Wow! You have been busy. You gor some great books, and got three done. I wish I could get through books like that. :)Happy reading to you and hope all starts to iron out for you all.
Blackbringer sounds really interesting; I put it on my list for Not-So-Bebe-Girl Autumn. Three Seconds has been receiving some rave reviews, and of course The Replacements is on my own to-buy list! Great week in books! I've been seeing Wither here and there too; it seems like a good YA novel.
Enjoy!
I really want to read The Replacement. I hope they are all as good as they look. Happy reading!
