Thanks to Kathy at I Am a Reader, and Mary at Bookhounds for hosting this blog hop. Since I have a display up for Banned Book Weeks in my library, I felt it would be good to participate in this as well. Banned Books Week is something the American Library Association (ALA) began to raise […]
I was so pleased to get to be a part of the blog tour for this book, so thanks to I Am a Reader for allowing me to participate. I hadn’t read many of what I call “chick lit” books in awhile, and this seemed like a cute one to read. The main character is […]
Well, I could have saved my review of The Dream Thieves for today and posted a Waiting on Wednesday yesterday, but I was ready to post my review. So, here we go for my second time of Booking Through Thursday: Connected to last week’s—it’s one of the ways writing has changed. Books from a century or […]
Wow, just almost don’t know how to start this review. Once again I really loved a book by this author. It was the one book that I really wish I’d had the money to go to BEA last summer just to get. But I didn’t. And so I spent all summer entering every contest I […]
So I still have 100 pages left to read of my ARC of The Dream Thieves, so I’m not going to be ready to write the review till tomorrow. Now normally I can get through 100 pages really quickly, but even the fact that Maggie Stiefvater’s writing hooks me and doesn’t want to let me go […]
Once again I find myself with a day that I’m not ready to post a review, so I’ll be joining in to this meme that is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey. For this we are supposed to spotlight the books we are reading, planning on reading, or just finished reading. So here is my plan […]
Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. This week was a smaller haul, but that’s okay as I’ve said before it’s not like I’m hurting for things to read at the moment, or probably ever will be. Purchased for others: […]
Once again I must ask myself why I waited so long to read this book! Kagawa’s writing is the kind I really like. It draws me in and makes it hard for me to put the book down. This is a much different story than the Blood of Eden series, obviously as this one is about […]
I am never good at picking out what actors should play characters in books, so once again I’m going to pass on Feature and Follow this week, and participate in The Friday 56, sponsored by Freda’s Voice. Here is what you do: Rules:*Grab a book, any book.*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader *Find any […]
I finally got to read the first book in this series, The Selection, back in May, around the time I got to meet the author. And as I expected, I fell in love with it. I’d heard some bad things about the sequel, and while one of them I can see why people said it, […]
