    This is entirely off topic, but I wanted to let you know that I redesigned The Christmas Spirit again (I know you didn't like the last design & I decided to change it again...I'm really quite pleased with it). Also, I changed the url, in case you weren't aware (http://truexmasspirit.blogspot.com/). So, there is a new button. I also changed The True Book Addict design and there's a new button for it as well. There are grab codes and you can change the size in the code. I know you like larger blog buttons.

  67. I think I'd choose The Immortal Rules (though it was a tough choice). I love this particular author, and have been enjoying the dystopian genre immensely. Also, this is the first in the series.
