Grl2Grl by Julie Anne Peters: It’s totally Amanda’s fault that I’m reading Julie Anne Peters stuff, so the fact that I picked this one up after spotting in my local bookshop this week.

Bad Blogger’s point to Nymeth then!

This one spent a long time hanging [...]

It’s Steampunk!
It’s got great illustrations!

Ever since I first saw this one on Beth’s site, I just knew it  was [...]
