Day 2 of Armchair BEA!! Okay, I’m going to do my best to answer the two questions below, then I hope you’ll chime in to the comments and let me know your thoughts as well. What Do Readers Want?: What makes or breaks a book? How do we rate the books, or determine if it […]
Book info: Title: The Raven King Author: Maggie Stiefvater Series: The Raven Cycle #4 Genre: YA Fantasy/Adventure Published: April 26th, 2016 Source: Purchased myself This is a book that I am going to have a really hard time reviewing.

If we are friends on Facebook, or you follow me on Twitter, you have seen the depth of my obsession with this series. It all started when I noticed the 2nd and 3rd books in the series were available as Bargain books at the Barnes and Noble where I work part time. I decided that […]
Back in August I was contacted by Lauren from Shooting Stars Mag and asked if I might be interested in doing a promo for his new book. It’s not necessarily my normal type of book, since it’s really NA as opposed to YA, but the story sounded interesting because it does have to do with […]

Continuing in the 3 year Blogoversary celebration, I’m using an idea I saw on Red House Books blog when they had their blogoversary last month. Mine is a little different, I think hers was about her least favorite things about blogging. And maybe I’ll do something like that later this month. But here are my […]
