Happy Friday readers! Another week flown by – thanks to the Bank Holiday Monday – and I managed to cram in two books this week: the Readarama Book of the Week, Rick Yancey’s The 5th Wave, and Marian Keyes’ The Mystery of Mercy Close as it’s been sitting on my to-read pile for a good few months!

I don’t know about you, but I’ve loved this week of reading! Legend has been a thrilling read from start to finish & I even managed to sneak in a couple of hundred pages of the sequel, Prodigy, before moving onto John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars today.
