Happy Easter and Happy Sunday! I hope you guys have had a lovely weekend so far. This past week was a little crazy and a bit fun as it's been my first time co-hosting a Scholastic Book Fair. Wow, it's a lot of work, but so much fun. I seriously admire those who have to do it on their own, because it is seriously time consuming, but so worth it. I'm already looking forward to doing this again after the fair ends on Wednesday. Luckily this was a slow book week for me, well not counting the books I bought for my kiddos. Here's some of the goodies that arrived in my mailbox this week:

Clary glanced up as Sebastian drew his hand away from her back. Light blazed around them. Jace had taken out his witchlight runestone. He grinned at her, his face all angles and shadows in the harsh, focused light. 
“Easy is the descent,” he said.

Some how I missed this COLS teaser......


“He’d burn the whole world down til he could dig you out of the ashes.” - Alec to Clary, City of Lost Souls




Enjoy this lovely COLS book trailer picture teaser:














Of these stills Cassie said: A collage of stills from the City of Lost Souls book trailer. They’re still mixing the sound but it should be released in the next two weeks. I’ve seen a few clips and I think it’ll be cool. :)
