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.

Enne's offer of compensatio...

The Secret

Review: Breaking Beautiful by Jennifer Shaw Wolf

  Title: Breaking Beautiful   Author: Jennifer Shaw Wolf   Published: April 24, 2012  Publisher: Walker Childrens   Source: Loan from Aunt     My only question when I finished the book was to the Goodreads community- why the heck would you rate this book any less than 5 stars? It is unaccountably amazing. Riveting read. And I was stunned to see that Jennifer was a *gasp* debut. Authors who have wrote 40 books aren't near as a gifted writer as Jennifer. She had me drawn in since page one. I read the first page and I was bawling. By middle way, I had to go get my comfort food- ice cream- out of the freezer. By the end I was crying to my dad about how I planned on building a shrine around the book- I am completely serious about this part. Jennifer, if you ever read this review. You are my newly found idol. Breaking Beautiful- I am in love. I need to stop ranting about this book but ...

Blog Tour: Fall For You

Title: Fall For You Series: A Jane Austen Academy Novel Author: Cecilia Gray The last thing that the girls at the elite all-girls Jane Austen Academy need is hot guys to flirt with. But over the summer the school has been sold, and like it or not, the guys are coming. And it's about to turn the Academy--and the lives of its students--totally upside down... To say Lizzie and Dante are polar opposites is the understatement of the century. He's a snooty Exeter transfer with more money than Google. She's a driven study-a-holic barely keeping up with tuition. It's obvious that Dante thinks he's way too good for Lizzie. And Lizzie knows Dante is a snob with a gift for pushing her buttons. But things are changing fast this year at the Academy. And when Lizzie's quest to stop those changes blows up in her face, taking her oldest friendship with it, she has nowhere else to turn but to Dante, with his killer blue eyes, his crazy-sexy smile, and his secrets... ...

While I Was Gone

I didn't just disappear on you all, my bookish loves.  I was gone to Beautiful Feet Ministries in Fort Worth, Texas.  In other words I found a closer relationship with God and I learned that I am the church and the church isn't just bound to pews.  It was amazing and emotional and I met life long friends.  Here are some pictures of Team Mississippi: Three of the most amazing men I know. Momma and I Faith, Future Plastic Surgeon #1, Isaac, and Future Plastic Surgeon #2 Amazing Service Does that shirt look familar? ;P That is what our Youth Minister does for fun. I am going to be as tall as Cousin dear one day....... Amazing time. Amazing people. All clothed in Amazing Grace.                              

So Want Saturday- 4

Title: While it Lasts Series: Sea Breeze #3 Author: Abbi Glines Release Date: July 31, 2012   Maybe driving home after a few (or more) shots of tequila had been a bad idea, but hell, he did it all the time. The cops had to have been freaking bored to have pulled him over. He wasn’t even swerving! That’s Cage York’s story and he’s sticking to it. Unfortunately, his baseball coach isn’t buying it. Cage has a free ride to the local junior college for baseball -- or he did, until he’d gotten a DUI. Now, Cage has to decide: does he drop out and give up his dream of getting noticed by a college in the SEC, and possibly making it into the Major Leagues -- or does he give in to his coach’s demands and spend his summer bailing hay? Eva Brooks planned out her life step by step when she was eight years old. Not once over the years had she lost sight of her goals. Josh Beasley, her next door neighbor, had been the center of those goals. He’d been her first boyfriend at ...

Giveaway: Tie Dye Shirt from Callum and Harper

                   Since I didn't get to see any of Tom's Tye Dye he left in New York back in the day.  I thought I would have a little fun and make a Tye Dye shirt like in Callum and Harper.  I was thinking about making Tye Dye boxers ,but I think a shirt would be the better to receive in mail. You know, just in case someone asks why did you get Tye Dye undies.  I wish I could personally just order Tom and have him shipped right to my door.  I will settle into making two Tye Dye Shirts.  One of me since I want one, and then one for you, whoever wins this competition.      I'll make the shirts from an adult small to extra large.  If you need bigger or smaller just let me know.  It may cost me a buck or more to buy it ,but for my blogging friends I will do it.  And just to add- they are going to be Tye Dyed by me personally so if I ever post a ...

Review: Thomas & January

Title: Thomas & January  Series: Sleepless #2 Author:  Fisher Amelie Published: June 15, 2012 Publisher: Indie   Thomas Eriksson thinks he has it all figured out. "People crossed the street when they saw me. I’m not really sure why that was. I mean, okay, I might have looked a bit intimidating if I was being truthful with you. I’d changed since New York. New York represented a life that wasn’t real, not truthfully, anyway. No, New York was the “young, immature, in love, idiot" side of Tom. The “Tie-Dye Tom of New York City” didn’t exist anymore. Tie-Dye Tom was dead." January Mac Lochlainn thinks she’s her own worst enemy. "I quit Berkeley. Threw away a full scholarship. Plans, you ask? What plans?" But they’re both wrong.         I think I am going to do a picture review on the cover because this is pretty much how I felt about the cover.     When I first saw the cover-           Thirty minutes l...

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.
