Spotted! (Week 21-27 February)

Howdy!
 
Let's see what happened this past week around the blogosphere:
(warning: this is very long post)

Last week, a few amazing blogs hosted a chapter hunt for the first chapter of City of Fallen Angels (The Mortal Instruments #4) by Cassandra Clare. On Monday, Cassie revealed the entire chapter and a few extra pages on her blog. Check it out! :)
You can order a SIGNED copy of CoFA @ Barnes&Noble.Com!* (Thank you Mundie Moms for the tip!)
For my Romanian fellows: The Mortal Instruments is finally being published in Romania (hallelujah!), and you can pre-order the first book (hardcover) here.* It's a must have!
