Hey guys! Welcome to another issue of the Galaxy Gazette! :) GG is inspired by Sophie's Monday News and the In My Mailbox meme by Kristi. Even though I'm not participating in IMM anymore, a few bloggers pointed out it's only right to credit Kristi since many of these new memes are all IMM inspired. (Including mine!)

I won DCTW in a Twitter contest last night! I'm super duper excited to read it. :) I also found some treasures of my own (Bloodlines and Finnikin!) If you know me, you know I've been craving a good YA epic/high fantasy book and Finnikin definitely fits my needs! ♥ CUTB was on sale for about $2.99 and one of my Twitter friends highly recommended it, and it was just $3 so what was I going to lose?
As you all may have noticed, I got an extra ARC (paperback) of One Moment. I'm not sure if I'll be giving it away or trading it. For all you excited contemporary fans who want to read this book at any cost, fill out the trade form below and maybe we can work something out! :)

What's Happening Across the Blogger Galaxy?
- Book Brats have a discussion on sex in YA literature. I really liked reading their discussion (which is called Talking Points) and it was insightful. It's probably not meant for those sixteen and under, because of the language they use. Also, fans of Halo, it's recommended you don't read this.
- Cindy, my forever awesome bloggy friend, is having three giveaways to celebrate her blogoversary! You can win one of three amazing prize packs: the romance prize pack (ooh la la~), paranormal prize pack, and the foreseen prize pack (which has THIS IS NOT A TEST!!) Go enter guys! :D
- Hilda at Catch the Lune is having a giveaway of her own! It's called The Red String of Fate giveaway, and you can win awesome prizes like TIR, Sweet Evil, Insurgent, and more! Get at her giveaway, people! ;D
- The Book Barbies got an absolutely adorable makeover!
