Glass Houses

Rachel Caine

Penguin Group

$6.99 U.S.

Synopsis:

College freshman Claire Danvers has had enough of her nightmarish dorm situation. When Claire heads off-campus, the imposing old house where she finds a room may not be much better. Her new roommates don't show many signs of life, but they'll have Claire's back when the town's deepest secrets come crawling out, hungry for fresh blood.

Why?

I really have no idea why I have yet to start this series... It looks amazing and is about a character closer to my age! I will have to start reading these soon, because after reading the synopsis again I cannot wait to start them!

My Soul To Keep

My Soul To Keep

Rachel Vincent

Harlequin

$9.99 U.S.

FTC: I purchased this book

Synopsis:

Kaylee has one addiction: her very hot, very popular boyfriend, Nash. A banshee like Kaylee, Nash understands her like no one else. Nothing can come between them.

Until something does.

Demon breath. No, not the toothpaste-challenged kind. The Netherworld kind. The kind that really can kill you. Somehow the super-addictive substance has made its way to the human world. But how? Kaylee and Nash have to cut off the source and protect their friends—one of whom is already hooked.

And so is someone else…

My Thoughts:

I think that this series deserves more attention! I absolutely love Rachel Vincent's Soul Screamers books. Kaylee and Nash are the perfect couple and I find myself rooting for them. I love that this is a paranormal book, but it is different from a lot of the other popular books out there right now. My Soul To Keep was my favorite of the series thus far. I found the first two books to be a little more predictable, and I really had no idea what was going to happen in My Soul To Keep until the very end, and then I was completely flabergasted. Rachel Vincent strung me along and then threw in a complete shocker at the end, and now I am stuck waiting for the next book to come out! What am I supposed to do???? I am dying to know where Vincent will take Kaylee and Nash next. While I was disappointed in one major outcome of this book, the writing was fantastic and the plot fulfilling. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment of the Soul Screamers series.

Recommendations:

Anyone looking for a good paranormal romance.

Night Star

Alyson Noel

St. Martin's Press

Release Date: November 2010

Synopsis: None Just Yet...

Why?

I have been up and down with this series, I loved it then hated it, and just cannot make up my mind. I still have the desire to finish the series so I cannot wait for Night Star to come out, I hope Ever will have gained some common sense by then

Florida....

So here is the scoop.... I leave for Florida tomorrow night at around 10ish. I am diligently working to make sure that I will have reviews and fun things for all of you to read while I am gone. I am still trying to reach 100 followers so I can do my major contest, so if you know of any fellow bloggers who arenot followers yet encourage them to stop by since I will be missing two blog hops and follow fridays. I wish you all the best the next couple weeks, especially if you are starting school. So happy reading, and happy blogging! When I return I hope to be tan and to have read at least a couple more books!!

Ramona and Beezus

So today I went with my mom to see Ramona and Beezus. I remember reading these books when I was a kid, and absolutely loving them. And now as a 20 something adult I loved the movie! I even cried a little...


If you have not read the books, I would completely suggest them. I would also suggest seeing the movie even if you think you are to old. It is a great mother-daughter movie, or sister-sister movie!

The Queen Geek Social Club

The Queen Geek Social Club

Laura Preble

Penguin Group

$9.99 U.S.

Synopsis:

It's chic to be geek!

If you're somebody like Shelby Chappelle, a smart, witty, pretty geek army of one, you can't just put a poster up at school and advertise for somebody to be your best friend. But now freakishly tall Becca Gallagher has moved to town, with her dragon tattoo and wild ideas. Suddenly Shelby's madscientist father and their robot, Euphoria, seem normal. They become best friends instantly. But Becca wants to shake things up at school and look for "others of our kind"...and decides to form the Queen Geek Social Club.

The thing is, this guy Fletcher Berkowitz keeps nosing around, asking lots of questions about the Club. He's cute, and interesting, and possibly likes Shelby. Therefore, she must torture him. One good thing about being a loner: no one can break your heart.

Why?

Well there are not a whole lot of books that start with the letter Q, but I think this books sounds adorable! I myself was a geek in high school, I was in band and science club president! This book seems like it would be cute and fun, and I look forward to picking it up sometime in the future!

Blog Hop and Follow Friday

How in the world is it Friday already???? Sorry for the lack of reviews last week everyone I was busy... reading! No worries, I am planning on getting everything squared away before I go on vacation so there will be reviews and other posts. For all my new followers this week, I am planning on having a week long contest when I reach 100 followers, so tell your friends and hop on over and follow my blog!


The Blog Hop is hosted by Jennifer at http://www.crazy-for-books.com/ The question for this week is...

Do you judge a book by its cover?

Don't we all? I do judge books by their covers but not in a bad way. If I am trying to decide between two books that look good, I will always pick the one with the best cover. I have also come across some great books because of their covers.



You can't have a blog hop without Follow Friday! Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee by http://www.parajunkee.com/
