This weeks pick is my most recent additions to my wishlist.

So without further ado lets see what books i've recently added to my library wishlist.Innocent Darkness by Suzanne Lazear

How To Lead A Life Of Crime by Kirsten Miller

exclusive school in New York City has been training young criminals for
over a century. Only the most ruthless students are allowed to graduate.
The rest disappear.
Flick, a teenage pickpocket, has risen to the top of his class. But then Mandel recruits a fierce new competitor who also happens to be Flick’s old flame. They’ve been told only one of them will make it out of the Mandel Academy. Will they find a way to save each other—or will the school destroy them both?

Two Lies and A Spy by Kat Carlton
Synopsis:
When sixteen-year-old
Kari’s dad sends her an unexpected text, she and her brother immediately
go into hiding. Because when your parents are superspies and your dad
declares a Code Black, it can only mean something bad. Very bad. Kari
soon discovers that her parents have been disavowed and declared
traitors, and she’s determined to clear their names. Breaking into the
Agency seems like a reasonable plan, especially with the help of a team
that includes her longtime crush, Luke, as well as her two best
friends—an expert hacker with attitude and a master martial artist—and
Luke’s popular, vindictive twin sister. Oh, and a new guy, who’s as cute
as he is complicated.
Little Black Dress, Little White Lies by Laura Stampler
Synopsis:Harper Anderson always believed she belonged somewhere more glamorous than her sleepy Northern California suburb. After all, how many water polo matches and lame parties in Bobby McKittrick's backyard can one girl take? That's why Harper is beyond ecstatic when she lands her dream internship as a dating blogger at the elite teen magazine Shift. Getting to spend the summer in New York City to live her dream of becoming a writer? Harper's totally in.
Wow Daniel Half Human: And the Good Nazi sounds really interesting! I'm adding it to my TBR pile for sure!
ReplyDeleteYes, as soon as I read the synopsis I knew I had to read it. Hopefully I'll get to it soon.
DeleteLittle Black Dress one was released yesterday, right? I saw it on Instagram. It looks really good.
ReplyDeleteThe Chotjewitz book sounds amazing, and so unlike anything I've read before set in the same era. Thanks for sharing! Little Black Dress, Little White Lies is also a book that has recently caught my eye. For some strange reason, the synopsis reminds me a lot of the Devil Wears Prada- but writing, instead of fashion. It just sounds like such a wonderful, entertaining read!
