Throne of Glass Book 3

Anyone ever heard of these books? They look just a tad bit creepy, don't they? Believe me, they are pretty damn scary books. When I first picked up Throne of Glass, I was thinking it would be your average supernatural YA kind of thing. Three words. OH HELL NO. Seriously. When I was done I was about to have nightmares! Those descriptions, just, ye gads it was terrifying! Picked up Crown of Midnight a couple months later. This time I thought it might be less creepy, because people usually say the second book never matches up to the first. Look at the three cap locked words up there. Same reaction second time around. I couldn't tear my eyes away from the book for a second. Not a dang second until I was done. Let me tell you something very important. Did it scare me out of my mind? Yes. Did it almost make my heart pound in fear in excitement? Absolutely. But did I love every second of it? You bet I did. By the time I was done the second, that ending? I just had to have the third. Just... oh my gosh. But few people have actually heard about the third. Do you wanna know? Do you? Do you? Of course you do!

Well, whether or not you want it, here it is! Heir of Fire is set to come out near September this year! Can you wait for it? I most certainly can't! But for now... I have to... *sniffles* it's so sad. I WANT IT NOW!!! But I can't have it...

So, to tide you all over - and me too - until the book comes out, I bring you book trailers!

How can you not love these, like seriously? I'm kinda freaked out just looking at them.

But for now, that's all I got, so, until next time!

Much love,

Another Little Piece by Kate Karyus Quinn

DESCRIPTION: 

On a cool autumn night, Annaliese Rose Gordon stumbled out of the woods and into a high school party. She was screaming. Drenched in blood. Then she vanished.

A year later, Annaliese is found wandering down a road hundreds of miles away. She doesn't know who she is. She doesn't know how she got there. She only knows one thing: She is not the real Annaliese Rose Gordon.

Now Annaliese is haunted by strange visions and broken memories. Memories of a reckless, desperate wish . . . a bloody razor . . . and the faces of other girls who disappeared. Piece by piece, Annaliese's fractured memories come together to reveal a violent, endless cycle that she will never escape—unless she can unlock the twisted secrets of her past.

When I had first read the summary, I only read up to the second paragraph. I expected it to be a good mystery with some romance (look at that cover... lone girl, looking far off to the distance- pretty much set for a contemporary romance!)

So at first it was alright the beginning, ok gotta set the book... and then it was Ok, dead... a boy that sees the future... some creepy stalker guy..

yeap... but as I continued reading about Anna/Annaliese I was slowly sucked into the story. However, THIS IS NOT A BOOK TO READ QUICKLY!!! I had to reread so many parts as I had rushed through parts wanting to get to the next section! do no, do not, do not do that! 

As we continued to learn more about the story and how this all came to be, it was quite confusing. Poems in between situations are a nice touch... but really although there are some great reviews about this book out there, it really isn't my cup of tea. The story was much to slow for my liking and I find the characters to be thoroughly confusing. I thought that there would be so much more action and mystery... and there was a lot of mystery. Quinn continued to pile on the questions for us and then she tied most of the answers in a nice little bow in the ending. However, there is not enough action! I thought there would be so much more after learning about the past lives of Anna, instead I just see more confusing memories and the confusion on Annaliese. 

I spent a majority of the book waiting and waiting for something to happen.. and it didn't until the end when Anna just showed them 

and just kicked all the bad guys asses.

I think personally the ending was what really ruined me.. it was told in a third person's point of view and it was just completely lame... in my opinion... hey ... at least I finished the book..

I think I would recommend this to those who have tons of patience, personally I think it could've been better... and maybe if I had realized it was a paranormal book I would have had much more time to enjoy it... especially since I am  currently in a romance stage...

All in all: 

OH AND THEY HAVE A TRAILER!!! HOPEFULLY THIS WILL INTEREST YOU! I have higher hopes for this book... may reread someday when I'm in the mood for a little mystery

Be With Me - J. Lynn Chapter 5 Is Up!

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Wait for You

Do Teresa and Jase have a real shot at getting together or will life get in the way?

Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year—she's in love with her big brother's best friend, but he hasn't spoken to her since they shared a truly amazing, mind-blowing, life-changing kiss. Then she got out of a terrible relationship. Now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good. It's time for plan B: college. And maybe she'll have a chance to convince Jase that what they have together is real.

Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he's not telling anyone—especially not his best friend's incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must take priority. He certainly doesn't have time for a relationship. But it doesn't help that all he can think about is kissing the one girl who could ruin everything for him.

As they're thrown together more and more, Jase and Teresa can't keep denying their feelings for each other. But a familiar danger looms and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must decide what they're willing to risk to be together and what they're willing to lose if they're not. . . .

Arya: Now, let me tell you a little bit about these chapters. I read them, of course, and first thing I thought was "well, this might be a bit awkward, reading about Cam's sister..." Turns out it wasn't - thank heavens! Three words: hot. Hot. HOT. Damn, the chemistry between those two and when he showed up at her dorm? Just... oh my gosh. I couldn't even breathe. It was adorable. But I'm done with my spew now; this is what you really want!
