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.

Well hey there! Again! Whew, I'm trying to get myself back on the horse. It's not that I'm not reading, because I totally am, but blogging is the hard part. What I'm reading, though, is largely historical romance. I fell into that pool big, but I'm looooving it! So those are probably what you'll be seeing here quite a bit more than before. :) People who know me are actually tired of hearing me tell them about my romance novels. I will change them, though! :D And Happy Easter to all who celebrate!

The Winner's Kiss by Marie Rutkoski

So that's been my week! Well, I was trying not to get new books, but that kind of failed? I went to our local used bookstore, though, and got most of the romance books using credit we have there--that makes it better, right? But hey! I have jury duty tomorrow, so I'm desperately hoping to do so much reading, especially since I can't have any electronics with me.

Ooh, fun story! I've, obviously, been dying for The Winner's Kiss, and had been hoping it'd come in early at work. I'd even told my receiving manager multiple times what the book was, so I'd know ASAP. I'd been checking the carts several times a day for at least a week already when, Thursday, she comes over the intercom and says, "Your book is here!" Y'all. I ran and snatched it up in my hungry little hands and basically didn't put it down for the rest of my shift. If my coworkers didn't already think I'm crazy, they do now. :) 

Have a lovely Sunday and a fabulous week!

Review: The Love That Split the World by Emily Henry

Release date: January 26, 2016 Author info: Twitter | Facebook Publisher: Razorbill Pages: 400 Format: ARC Source: Gifted Buy the book: Barnes & Noble | Amazon | The Book Depository Natalie Cleary must risk her future and leap blindly into a vast unknown for the chance to build a new world with the boy she loves.  Natalie’s last summer in her small Kentucky hometown is off to a magical start…until she starts seeing the “wrong things.” They’re just momentary glimpses at first—her front door is red instead of its usual green, there’s a pre-school where the garden store should be. But then her whole town disappears for hours, fading away into rolling hills and grazing buffalo, and Nat knows something isn’t right. That’s when she gets a visit from the kind but mysterious apparition she calls “Grandmother,” who tells her: “You have three months to save him.” The next night, under the stadium lights of the high school football field, she meets a beautiful boy named Beau, and it’s ...

Nothing much exciting going on for me this week, just the holiday meeting at work this morning. I used my last bit of vacation and visited my best friend this week, and we spent too much money. Oops. :) ANYWAY, on to the books! Purchased: Like a River Glorious by Rae Carson (signed! YAY!) Scandalous Desires by Elizabeth Hoyt Notorious Pleasures by Elizabeth Hoyt Traded: The Dark Days Pact by Alison Goodman I am more than a little bit excited to have this in my hands, y'all. I LOVED the first book. But I'm pretty sad about the new cover direction. I wish they'd stop doing this. I also got this super fun promotional package from Swoon Reads! I did a happy dance when I saw what it was. I love that tote! Books I read this week: The Sun Is Also a Star   by Nicola Yoon I'm currently reading: Notorious Pleasures b...
