Feature and Follow Friday is sponsored by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. The purpose of this event is to learn about the two featured bloggers each week, as well as to increase your own blog following by joining in on the fun! Here is this week’s question: Q: What is your guilty pleasure as far as reading? Is […]
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases that we’re eagerly awaiting. This week I’ve chosen a book that is in keeping with the current zombie trend/obsession of mine. I got an ARC of the first book last summer at BEA 2012, and read it last […]
(Sponsored by The Broke and the Bookish) Do you ever buy a book the minute it comes out, or you walk into a store and see it and have to have it, but then it is a long time, sometimes even years before you actually read it? Well, I was glad to see that I […]
I’d heard of the Hatfields’ and McCoys’ feud. As the author states in the note at the end, the names are a pop culture/historical reference, but many people don’t know the actual story. Which was mostly true for me. At least it was until last summer when the History Channel did their mini-series on the […]
I’m extremely excited that my first time participating in an Xpresso Book Tour is for an author I’ve actually met! As I mentioned when I reviewed the first two books in the series, Remembrance, and Vengeance, I stood in line at the BEA 2012 Bloggers Day. Unfortunately I didn’t get my picture with her, or […]
I started this book clear back in April of 2008, so it’s been almost 5 years that it has taken me to finish it. Yes it is a big book, but that’s not why. The book is exactly what it says, it is the blog or diary entries of Kevin Smith. And so, as it […]
I was doing so well this month with basically one post a day, then, Sunday, and I got sick. So sick that I didn’t even want to read, and anyone who knows me knows that means I am REALLY sick. But normally I’m only sick for a day, then am doing better the next day. […]
As usual I will begin my review with thanks to both Netgalley as well as Bloomsbury USA Children’s Books for allowing me to read this as an e-galley. I was unsure on whether to give this book a 4 or 5 on Goodreads, but I ended up rounding up, as this book had so many […]
I will start by thanking Netgalley and Flux Books for allowing me to read an e-galley of this. I also got to read the first in the series, Ripper, as an e-galley. I was very into the first book because it was supposedly about Jack the Ripper which is a subject that has always fascinated […]
Oops, remember how I said I was only going to do one giveaway hop a month? Guess I signed up for this and forgot about it! Oh well, it’s kind of a fun one, but since I did $20 on the last one, and then one of my giveaways before I’m still waiting for the […]
