I got four books this week:

2. The Woman In Black by Susan Hill
-
-
3. The Language Of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh
4. The Particular Sadness Of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender

I've been walking past The Night Circus for weeks now and every time I do I pick it up but then put it back down again. I eventually caved though and realised I just had to let by curiosity takes its course. I've heard great things about it! I also picked up The Woman In Black this week; mainly becasue of the upcoming Daniel Radcliffe film based on the book which looks awesome and creepy. I've also decided that this is the book I'm going to read for Halloween this year. The Language of Flowers and The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake are books I've been drawn to for weeks as well and I finally picked them up. Not only that but one of my favourite youtubers (CuriosityRocks) gave great reviews on them :) What di you get this week?

I've read a lot about the Night Circus and The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake but I have not heard of the other two. I haven't seen movie trailers for Woman in Black. Maybe I'm not watching the right stations. But I'm sufficiently intrigued by the titles of The Woman in Black and The Language of Flowers to look them up! Thanks for some potential new reads! Just what I need, more books! LOL

A lot of you seem to have enjoyed The Night Circus or think it looks like a great read which makes me even more excited to read it :)

@Buried in books - you should definitely look into the Woman In Black trailer. It looks awesome! You can never have too many books :P

@Alison - I love the cover too. The bright blue and yellows make it stand out and make me want to eat a lemon meringue pie :)
