  6. My most anticipated read is Strange The Dreamer bu Laini Taylor. I read Daughter of Smoke And Bone about a week ago, and I seriously fell in love with her writing. It's so freaking different, quirky, and out of this world. I can't wait to finish the rest of the trilogy, as well as get my hands on STD! (The abbreviation for this is hilarious lol) Thank you so much for this giveaway girl!
