Very Merry UnBirthday (4)

Happy Happy Birthday!!!!

Today is a spectacular day!!! It is the birthday of City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare and I am so excited!!! I pre-ordered mine and will have to wait for it to get here, which is no fun. I have other books to occupy my time while I wait though. I'm about 65% done with Tempestuous by Lesley Livingston. Should be done by tomorrow and then I'll be on my way to start Afterlife by Claudia Gray until my copy of CoFA gets here. ^_^ .

Now, some Hunger Games news, which a lot of you may already know. Peeta and Gale have officially been casted as of yesterday. Just thought I'd share.

Gale

Peeta

Peeta, being played by Josh Hutcherson (Journey to the Center of the Earth, The Kids are Alright). Personally I'd have maybe picked him for Gale and  and Liam Hemsworth(The Last Song) is playing Gale, who I'd have picked for Peeta. But, what do I know!

This week's noteworthy UnBirthdays are The Gathering by Kelley Armstrong (can't wait!!) and My Unfair Godmother (My Fair Godmother #2) by Janette Rallison. 

My Unfair Godmother Synopsis from Goodread: 

Tansy Miller has always felt that her divorced father has never had enough time for her. But mistakenly getting caught on the wrong side of the law wasn't exactly how she wanted to get his attention. Enter Chrysanthemum "Chrissy" Everstar, Tansy's fairy in shining, er, high heels. Chrissy is only a fair godmother, of course, so Tansy's three wishes don't exactly go according to plan. And if bringing Robin Hood to the twenty-first century isn't bad enough for Tansy, being transported back to the Middle Ages to deal with Rumpelstiltskin certainly is. She'll need the help of her blended family, her wits, and especially the cute police chief 's son to stop the gold-spinning story from spinning wildly out of control. Janette Rallison pulls out all the stops in this fresh, fun-filled follow-up to the popular My Fair Godmother. 

Many of you have read Kelley Armstrong's Darkest Powers series, it's amazing if you haven't picked up the first book Summoning yet, go get it! This book, The Gathering, is the first in the Darkness Rising series, sure to be excellent as well.

The Gathering Synopsis from Goodread: 

Strange things are happening in Maya's tiny Vancouver Island town. First, her friend Serena, the captain of the swim team, drowns mysteriously in the middle of a calm lake. Then, one year later, mountain lions are spotted rather frequently around Maya's home—and her reactions to them are somewhat . . . unexpected. Her best friend, Daniel, has also been experiencing unexplainable premonitions about certain people and situations.

It doesn't help that the new bad boy in town, Rafe, has a dangerous secret, and he's interested in one special part of Maya's anatomy—her paw-print birthmark.

Both are due to release next Tuesday, April 12th!
