At the bottom it says, "Perfect for fans of Ally Carter...and Gail Carriger..." along with the above summary and I am thinking "I'M IN!!!" WOW! Plus, that cover is fantastic! AND, it's by Zink who wrote THIS WICKED GAME which I thought was great!
What are you waiting on this week?
I don't know that either of these are my kind of books, but the titles are very interesting!
