Feature and Follow Friday #2, I am a Featured Blog!!

Image
The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts,  Parajunkee  of Parajunkee’s View  and  Alison  of Alison Can Read .  I am so excited that this Friday my blog will be featured!, The other blog that is being featured this week is  A thousand words, A million books.  So make sure to check her blog out if you haven't already. This week's question is: Q: What books would you give to newbies in your favorite genre? (Ex. I'm a newbie to high fantasy and EVERYONE said to ease into it with the Throne of Glass series!) - Suggested by   Take Me Away... A: I am going to choose Young Adult, and Paranormal, since a lot of my favorite series and trilogies are from those two genre's. 1. Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead . ~ I can't say it enough, I love this series, it is my favorite series ever, and I have read it over 6 times and haven't gotten sick of it and I know I never will. If we have talked and you've asked me to recommend you a book, this series wo

Hey everyone!, I am currently reading a few books at once, I have a few books I am reading for school and a few books I am reading for fun, so I wanted to share with you one of the books I am currently reading. 1. Winter Wonderland by Belinda Jones Goodreads Synopsis:   Imagine waking up in a snow globe... That’s how travel journalist Krista feels when she arrives in magical Quebec to report on Canada's glittering Winter Carnival. Over ten sub-zero days Krista's formerly frozen heart begins to melt as she discovers an enchanting world of ice palaces, husky dog-sledding and maple-syrup treats galore. And then she meets Jacques, a man as handsome and rugged as he is mysterious… The two share a secret that could bond them forever, but can they find a way to break through the protective layers around their hearts to warm up this winter wonderland? …let the snow-spangled adventure begin --------------- I know it's still October (well for 2 more days), but I am in suc

The Collector by Victoria Scott (Dante Walker trilogy) ~Book Review

Image
Book Title:  The Collector Author:  Victoria Scott Series:  Dante Walker #1 Genres:  Young Adult, Paranormal, Fantasy... Published:  April 2nd 2013 by Entangled teen Synopsis :   Dante Walker is flippin’ awesome, and he knows it. His good looks, killer charm, and stellar confidence has made him one of Hell’s best — a soul collector. His job is simple, weed through humanity and label those round rears with a big red good or bad stamp. Old Saint Nick gets the good guys, and he gets the fun ones. Bag-and-tag. Sealing souls is nothing personal. Dante’s an equal opportunity collector and doesn’t want it any other way. But he’ll have to adjust, because Boss Man has given him a new assignment: Collect Charlie Cooper’s soul within 10 days. Dante doesn’t know why Boss Man wants Charlie, nor does he care. This assignment means only one thing to him, and that’s a permanent ticket out of Hell. But after Dante meets the quirky, Nerd Alert chick he’s come to collect—he realises this assignment wi

The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, ×   Parajunkee  of Parajunkee’s View and ×   Alison  of Alison Can Read . Each host will have their own ×  Blog  and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs! This weeks Question is: Characters, sometimes our favorites, die during books. If you’d get to choose, who would you bring back? If you haven't read Divergent, The Fault in our stars, Harry Potter, and If I stay then please be careful not to get spoiled. 1. Divergent - Tris, I actually didn't read Allegiant because I was spoiled on what would happen and I got pretty pissed off and I didn't want to continue reading it and I don't think I'll ever pick it up, unless somehow the author magically brings back Tris lol. 2. The Fault in Our Stars - Augustus Waters ~ I cried like I don't even know what when he passed away, before I read the book I was spoiled and knew he would die, and for a while I didn't want to read the book, but the

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine , that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. Book Title: The Return (Titan #1) Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout Expected Publication: February 17th 2015 Goodreads:   HERE Synopsis:   The Fates are cackling their bony asses off… It’s been a year since Seth made the deal with the gods that pledged his life to them. And so far, the jobs they’ve given him have been violent and bloody–which is kind of all right with him. But now Apollo has something else in mind for Seth. He’s got to play protector while keeping his hands and fingers off, and for someone who really has a problem with restraint, this new assignment might be the most challenging yet. Josie has no idea what this crazy hot guy’s deal might be, but it’s a good bet that his arrival means the new life she started after leaving home is about to be thrown into an Olympian-sized blender turned up to pure

The Book Blogger Tag

Picture is not mine. Hey everyone, I saw this tag over at  waterpainteddreams  and it seemed fun, so I decided to do this tag too!, I hope you enjoy it! :) Which book most recently did you not finish? I usually always finish the books I am reading, so I haven't not finished a book in a long time and that book is Raw by Aurora Belle, I thought I would enjoy it but it just wasn't working for me and I decided to read a few spoilers on what happens and I was glad that I decided to stop reading. Which book is your guilty pleasure? I don't have one book, but my guilty pleasure is definitely cheesy romance books, sometimes the books are so cheesy that I just can't handle them but I keep reading them because they make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside haha. Which book do you love to hate? Definitely Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire, honestly it is the worst book I have ever read, or well worst book I didn't finish, I couldn't even get half way
