Review: Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody

Release date: April 10, 2018 Author info: Website | Twitter Publisher: Harlequin Teen Pages: 416 Format: Egalley Source: Publisher provided for review through Netgalley Buy the book: Barnes & Noble | Amazon | The Book Depository Welcome to the City of Sin, where casino families reign, gangs infest the streets… and secrets hide in every shadow. Enne Salta was raised as a proper young lady, and no lady would willingly visit New Reynes, the so-called City of Sin. But when her mother goes missing, Enne must leave her finishing school—and her reputation—behind to follow her mother’s trail to the city where no one survives uncorrupted. Frightened and alone, her only lead is a name: Levi Glaisyer. Unfortunately, Levi is not the gentleman she expected—he’s a street lord and a con man. Levi is also only one payment away from cleaning up a rapidly unraveling investment scam, so he doesn't have time to investigate a woman leading a dangerous double life.

Review: Emergency Contact by Mary H.K. Choi

Release date: March 27, 2018 Author info: Website | Twitter | Facebook Publisher: Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers Pages: 391 Format: ARC Source: Publisher provided for review Buy the book: Barnes & Noble | Amazon | The Book Depository For Penny Lee high school was a total nonevent. Her friends were okay, her grades were fine, and while she somehow managed to land a boyfriend, he doesn’t actually know anything about her. When Penny heads to college in Austin, Texas, to learn how to become a writer, it’s seventy-nine miles and a zillion light years away from everything she can’t wait to leave behind. Sam’s stuck. Literally, figuratively, emotionally, financially. He works at a café and sleeps there too, on a mattress on the floor of an empty storage room upstairs. He knows that this is the god-awful chapter of his life that will serve as inspiration for when he’s a famous movie director but right this second the seventeen bucks in his checking account and his dying l...

Review: To Kill a Kingdom by Alexandra Christo

Release date: March 6, 2018 Author info: Website | Twitter | Facebook Publisher: Feiwel & Friends Pages: 342 Format: ARC Source: Publisher provided for review Buy the book: Barnes & Noble | Amazon | The Book Depository Princess Lira is siren royalty and the most lethal of them all. With the hearts of seventeen princes in her collection, she is revered across the sea. Until a twist of fate forces her to kill one of her own. To punish her daughter, the Sea Queen transforms Lira into the one thing they loathe most—a human. Robbed of her song, Lira has until the winter solstice to deliver Prince Elian’s heart to the Sea Queen or remain a human forever. The ocean is the only place Prince Elian calls home, even though he is heir to the most powerful kingdom in the world. Hunting sirens is more than an unsavory hobby—it’s his calling. When he rescues a drowning woman in the ocean, she’s more than what she appears. She promises to help him find the key to destroying all of sirenkin...

Where Have I Been?

Surprise! It's me! Thought you might never see me again, didn't you? Weeell, that's not the case. Where have I been? The same place, honestly. Life's been just the same, I've just been lazy--I think. The more I think about it the less that feels right to say, though. I looked at my last post, and I remember where I was at the time. My niece was due any day, I'd just started working as receiving manager, and school was kicking my butt a little. To update all of that:  My niece was born October 11th and is literally the cutest baby in the world. I will not be taking arguments on that. It's a fact. On the right was her on Easter... School isn't kicking my butt much this semester, but I am down to my last two semesters after this one! I just signed up for classes and am both really excited and more than a little freaked out. It feels a lot like it did when I was finishing up undergrad and have this kind of precipice coming toward me. I've got some time, ...

September Recap

Well... Oops? August and September just kind of molded into one month and I never recapped August. When I realized, it was too late, so I just didn't. I guess part of that is because it coincided with A LOT going on and I didn't have time! I think that's the trend of the last month... And likely the months to come. What books did I get? The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo One Dark Throne by Kendare Blake Warcross by Marie Lu Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco Flame in the Mist by Renee Ahdieh All my purchases, all signed! That's the approach I'm taking to buying books right now, because I need not to be spending so much money. Either I've read the book and adored it, or it's by someone I love!  The Hunting Accident by David L. Carlson, illustrated by Landis Blair To Kill a Kingdom by Alexandra Christo Winner Take All by Laurie Devore I Stop Somewhere by T.E. Carter Don't Forget Me by Victor...

Blog Tour: Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco {Playlist + Giveaway}

Y'all, I am over the moon excited to be kicking off the blog tour for Hunting Prince Dracula , hosted by the Knights of Whitechapel! If I haven't spouted my love of Stalking Jack the Ripper to you in the last year, I probably simply haven't seen you. Lucky little me has already read Hunting Prince Dracula  (literally dropped everything to reread SJtR really quickly and leap into HPD!), and it's seriously wonderful. Everything you loved in Kerri's first book is there again, but with higher stakes (stakes, get it?), an even more gothic, dramatic setting, and even more romance. This is one you're going to need to pick up as soon as you can.

July Recap

Can y'all believe July is over?? I feel like I just did the June recap (maybe that's because I didn't post too much in between, though...) What books did I get? The Epic Crush of Genie Lo by F.C. Yee Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart Hunted   by Meagan Spooner Flame in the Mist by Renee Ahdieh Gunslinger Girl by Lyndsay Ely Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake Dream a Little Dream by Kerstin Gier Dream On by Kerstin Gier Roseblood by A.G. Howard Reign of Shadows by Sophie Jordan Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia Once and For All by Sarah Dessen Again, I'm proud of myself because I only bought two books!

Nearly everything else, except for The Epic Crush of Genie Lo and Genuine Fraud , are all from trades. And I'm pleased as punch with my trades! What did I post? June Recap Best of 2017...

Blog Tour: Worlds of Ink and Shadow by Lena Coakley {Review + Giveaway}

Release date: January 5, 2016 Author info: Website | Twitter | Facebook Publisher: Amulet Pages: 352 Format: Egalley Source: Publisher provided for review Buy the book: Barnes & Noble | Amazon | The Book Depository Charlotte, Branwell, Emily, and Anne. The Brontë siblings have always been inseparable. After all, nothing can bond four siblings quite like life in an isolated parsonage out on the moors. Their vivid imaginations lend them escape from their strict upbringing, actually transporting them into their created worlds: the glittering Verdopolis and the romantic and melancholy Gondal. But at what price? As Branwell begins to slip into madness and the sisters feel their real lives slipping away, they must weigh the cost of their powerful imaginations, even as their characters—the brooding Rogue and dashing Duke of Zamorna—refuse to let them go. Gorgeously written and based on the Brontës’ juvenilia, Worlds of Ink & Shadow brings to life one of history’s most celebrated ...
