GET ME OFF THE SHELF
Get Me Off The Shelf! is inspired by *From the Review Pile from*Stepping Out of the Page* hosted by Stephanie. The aim of this meme is to showcase books that you own, but just haven't got around to reviewing or read yet. It could be a book you bought yesterday or years ago. Maybe you even have a few books on your eReader just waiting to be swiped to open the pages. It will also give the book some extra publicity!

Publisher: Philomel
Synopsis:A thrilling debut story of death, love, destiny and danger
Lenzi hears voices and has visions - gravestones, floods, a boy with steel gray eyes. Her boyfriend, Zak, can't help, and everything keeps getting louder and more intense. Then Lenzi meets Alden, the boy from her dreams, who reveals that she's a reincarnated Speaker - someone who can talk to and help lost souls - and that he has been her Protector for centuries.
Now Lenzi must choose between her life with Zak and the life she is destined to lead with Alden. But time is running out: a malevolent spirit is out to destroy Lenzi, and he will kill her if she doesn't make a decision soon.
Why haven't I read this yet?
I have not a clue. As I'm swiping through my Kindle, I keep seeing this beautiful cover. I want to read it, but I'm never one to stop what I'm currently reading and then read another book. Well unless it's a terrible story that I can't get through. And so far I haven't had that happen. Sooo . . . Like I always say ... I'll get to it one day ... maybe.

Synopsis:For seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams is getting old. Especially the falling dreams, the naked-but-nobody-notices dreams, and the sex-crazed dreams. Janie's seen enough fantasy booty to last her a lifetime.
She can't tell anybody about what she does they'd never believe her, or worse, they'd think she's a freak. So Janie lives on the fringe, cursed with an ability she doesn't want and can’t control.
Then she falls into a gruesome nightmare, one that chills her to the bone. For the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. She is a participant

When sixteen-year-old Jensen Meadows finds herself caught in the middle of an ancient faerie war, she soon learns that faeries aren't made of sparkly goodness. They're vicious.

Okay, this was one of my,"It's so pretty, I've got to buy it." And I did, so it's been sitting on my Kindle list of books, waiting for me to swipe it open. It's seems to be a great story!

This week's 'Get Me Off the Shelf' book is on my Kindle:A Stolen Life
a memoir
By Jaycee Dugard
Hardcover
Pages: 273
Published: July 12, 2011
Publisher: Simon & Schuster
Synopsis via Goodreads:
In the summer of 1991 I was a normal kid. I did normal things. I had friends and a mother who loved me. I was just like you. Until the day my life was stolen.
For eighteen years I was a prisoner. I was an object for someone to use and abuse.
For eighteen years I was not allowed to speak my own name. I became a mother and was forced to be a sister. For eighteen years I survived an impossible situation.
On August 26, 2009, I took my name back. My name is Jaycee Lee Dugard. I don’t think of myself as a victim. I survived.
A Stolen Life is my story—in my own words, in my own way, exactly as I remember it.
MY THOUGHTS:
This is not one of the genres that I usually buy or read. I remembered all the news that the media was giving about her and I really felt so bad for her parent's loss (I was about 20 years old at that time). And then when I heard she was found(18 years later) and the story behind it interest me.
So a year ago when this memoir came out I thought, yes I'm going to buy and read this miraculous story of this one girl's kidnapping, what she went through with her kidnappers, and her rescue.
Well a year later it is still on my bookshelf. I just can't seem to open this memoir and read it. I'm not sure if it's because I know this will be an emotional read for me. Maybe one day I'll get up the courage to.
Like I always say ... I'll get to it one day ... maybe.

Need(Need#1)
By Carrie Jones
Paperback
Pages: 306
Published: December 8, 2009
Publisher: by Bloomsbury USA
Synopsis via Goodreads:
Zara collects phobias the way other girls collect Facebook friends. Little wonder, since life’s been pretty rough so far. Her father left, her stepfather just died, and her mother’s pretty much checked out. Now Zara’s living with her grandmother in sleepy, cold Maine so that she stays “safe.” Zara doesn’t think she’s in danger; she thinks her mother can’t deal.
Wrong. Turns out that guy she sees everywhere, the one leaving trails of gold glitter, isn’t a figment of her imagination. He’s a pixie—and not the cute, lovable kind with wings. He’s the kind who has dreadful, uncontrollable needs. And he’s trailing Zara.
With suspense, romance, and paranormal themes, this exciting breakout novel has readers rapidly turning the pages
A few years ago, I had went to my area bookstore(at that time it was Borders), and started chatting with a younger girl who swore I should get this book. So I did, because I have a book buying problem :) I was already to read it, but for some reason just did not. I can't remember exactly why, but I would bet all the pennies I have that it was because I had decided to read another book that I had purchased the same day.Like I always say ... Oh well, I'll get to it one day ... maybe.

Blue Moon
(The immortals, book 2)

Paperback
(The immortals, book 2)
By Alyson Noel
Paperback
Pages: 289
Published: July 7th 2009
Published: July 7th 2009
Publisher: by St. Martin's Press
Synopsis via Goodreads:
Alyson’s Noël’s bestselling Immortals series has been hailed as “addictive” “beautiful” “haunting” and “mesmerizing.” In the second installment, Ever can bring her family back from the dead—but only if she’s willing to sacrifice the guy she loves more than life itself.
Just as Ever is learning everything she can about her new abilities as an immortal, initiated into the dark, seductive world by her beloved Damen, something terrible is happening to him. As Ever’s powers are increasing, Damen’s are fading—stricken by a mysterious illness that threatens his memory, his identity, his life.
Desperate to save him, Ever travels to the mystical dimension of Summerland, uncovering not only the secrets of Damen’s past—the brutal, tortured history he hoped to keep hidden—but also an ancient text revealing the workings of time. With the approaching blue moon heralding her only window for travel, Ever is forced to decide between turning back the clock and saving her family from the accident that claimed them—or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows weaker each day...

MY THOUGHTS:
I liked the first book in the series, Evermore. I had to get the second book, but then I went astray and started reading Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse series.
Oh well, I'll get to it one day ... maybe.
