New Blog Title

  Since it is my bloggoversery.  I am so excited to announce that Courtney's Book Nook is no longer going to be called Courtney's Book Nook.  I  have noticed Courtney's Book Nook title just does have any Bang to it.  So I thought of an intresting title when I was discussing Easy by Tamara Weber with some author friends.   I was teasing how I wanted to lock the main character- Landon- in my virtual basement and keep him there forever.  Then I came up with an amazing title- or atleast it is awesome to me.  Locked In My Basement.  What do you people think?  Should I change my blog title to that or just leave plain old boring Courtney's Book Nook!  I need your help!!!

Review: The Fairytale Keeper: Avenging the Queen

Title: The Fairytale Keeper Series:  The Fairytale Keeper (??) Author:  Andrea Cefalo  Publisher: Scarlet Primrose Press Published: June 1, 2012 Rating: 4  ereaders!! Buy:  Amazon   Official Website for author: http://andreacefalo.com/ Snow White was a pet name her mother had given her, but her mother’s dead now. Adelaide hates that name anyway. A rampant fever claimed Adelaide’s mother just like a thousand others in Cologne where the people die without Last Rites and the dead are dumped in a large pit outside of the city walls. Adelaide’s father is determined to obtain a funeral for his wife, but that requires bribing the parish priest, Father Soren. When Soren commits an unforgivable atrocity, he pushes Adelaide to her breaking point, but if she seeks justice against the cruel priest, she risks sacrificing everything: her father, her friends, her first love, and maybe even her life.    Since I read this a few weeks ago, and ha...

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.
