Wishlist Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted at Pen to Paper Blog, in which feature a book we can’t wait to get off of our wish list and onto our shelves! I normally participate in Waiting on Wednesday sponsored by Jill at Breaking the Spine, but she doesn’t seem to have one posted for this […]
You know how sometimes I’ve talked about how the 2nd book in a series is slow and hard to get through? Not true in any way, shape, or form for this book!! I was sucked right back in! I just love Gabrielle Zevin’s writing style I guess! And of course, if you haven’t read the […]
Can I just say, WOW? Why in the world have I waited so long to read yet another ARC that was sitting on my shelf since before it was published? I mean this came out in September 2011, so I got the ARC before then, and it sat on my shelf. I’d only wanted it […]
When I first heard about this book through the Shelf Awareness email newsletter, I was instantly intrigued. As someone who has worked in a bookstore since 2000, I had often talked with other booksellers about the crazy things our customers did and said. Some annoying, some just way out there. So I had to buy […]
I finally got around to reading this!! It’s been so long since I read Divergent, in fact it’s been since April of 2011!! I tried so hard last year to win an ARC, because I’d gotten to read Divergent as an ARC. And then I didn’t get to meet the author at BEA, and I […]
Again, thanks to Scholastic and Netgalley for letting me read this egalley in the fall of 2012. I have to say I really liked this one! I’m not always sure about books that are about witches. Sometimes it is too hokey or I just can’t get into the story. But this book was really good! […]
So I think I’m going to try to participate in one hop a month that is sponsored by Kathy at I Am a Reader, Not a Writer. And the co-sponsor of this hop is Jinky is Reading. And this month I’ve chosen the Leap Into Books giveaway, because as a teacher, I like the idea […]
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 the sequel to a book I just reviewed on Monday. I so loved The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa, that I’m very excited to know that the sequel, The Eternity Cure, […]
This is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s top ten them is “auto-buy” authors. Which means authors that you always buy their books when they come out because you know that you’ll enjoy it no matter what, if it’s in a series you’ve read, or not. My first few were at one […]
Okay, once again I have been totally wowed and am asking myself why in the world I waited so long to read a book by this author. Now, I must admit the other series by this author, is about Fey, and I’m not really into the fairies that much. Not that I haven’t read any […]
