Snow Kissed by Laura Florand
This
is one of the best marriage-in-crisis stories I've read. Heartbreaking
and beautiful, sensual and passionate! It brought out so many emotions
in just 122 pages!
Saving Francesca & The Piper's Son by Melina Marchetta
I adored Saving Francesca but I absolutely LOVED the sequel, The Piper's Son. Melina Marchetta can have you laughing your head off one minute and crying the next, but she always makes you FEEL! She is just a phenomenal writer!
These were just a few of my favorites that I'm thankful I've read. What about you, what books are you thankful to have read?

I still need to read something by Laura Florand Rachel! Can you believe I haven't? Reader fail. I really enjoyed Saving Francesca as well but still need to get to The Piper's Son. Thanks so much for the giveaway!!!!
Happy Halloween:)
I'm so grateful for the Harry Potter series. I've always been a huge reader but I think it's amazing how much it opened reading to people of all ages.
Oh girl, I totally agree about Marchetta's books. All of them! I'm so grateful for them and I really hope there will be much more. But also I'm grateful for many others that I could hardly list them all here. Thank you for the amazing giveaway :)
Eeek! I love this post. <3 Thank you so much for sharing. And the giveaway is aaaawesome. <3 I would so love to win an amazon gift card. You are awesome :) Anyway. YAY for Melina M books. <3 She is awesome. And these books are pretty amazing too :) The book I'm grateful to have read.. hmm. That must be my favorite book of them all, Graceling. <3 Because it means the most to my heart. And I'm just so glad that I've read it :)

I'm grateful I discovered YA.
I'm grateful to have read the Shade series by Jeri Smith-Ready.
Marchetta is my top favourite author, I am so happy that I found her books. But these days I've been obsessing over the books in the Starbound series by Amie Kaufman & Meagan Spooner, I can't take them out of my head. And before that there was the Unwind series which blew my mind - they are so damn great, in a creepy kind of way.
I also agree with Mary Preston, I am simply grateful for discovering YA.
I am grateful for having read the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. This is the series that made me love YA genre.

This Lullaby: For introducing me to Sarah Dessen and young adult contemporary books
Wonder: For being so profound
Harry Potter series: Obvious reasons
Graffiti Moon: The protagonist is from the same place and at the same stage I was when reading. Makes it so much more special. I also read this book in a day it was so amazing.
Vampire Academy: For giving me all the feelings, and then directing me to the Bloodline series which again, more feelings.
I'd have to say the Harper Hall Trilogy by Ann McCaffery. That sparked my love of reading when I was 12 and I've been blazing trails ever since :) Thank for sharing!
Josh Sundquist's Just Don't Fall (Inspirational with a good balance between sad and funny moments) and Chinese Cinderella by Adeline Yen Mah (subtitled as "The True Story of an Unwanted Daughter.")
I love that you're a Laura Florand and Melina Marchetta fan too just like me! :) I loved Jellicoe Road and The Piper's Son so much, they're two of my best reads this year. My favorite from Laura Florand this year is The Chocolate Temptation, although Sun-Kissed comes in second. :)
