STILL ON MY MIND: A DEEP DARK SECRET

Thursday, July 26, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

'Still on my Mind' is a meme inspired by Haley at YA-Aholic

Every Thursday you will feature a book that you read months or even YEARS ago that was so good (or so scary/unique/funny..etc) that it is 'Still on my (your) Mind!'

Please include in your post:

1. The summary of the book (off of goodreads or amazon or whatever!)

2. Make sure you tell us why it is still on your mind, was it super amazing? Super Unique? Super Scary?

A Deep Dark Secret
by Kimberla Lawson Roby
Hardcover, 192 pages
Published: September 29, 2009

Publisher: William Morrow & Company

*image and Synopsis via Goodreads*

On the outside, twelve-year-old Jillian Maxwell is the perfect child. She's helpful with chores around the house, gets straight As in school, has plans for college, and stays out of trouble. She seems to have everything a girl could want: a big, beautiful new home, an adoring little sister, a mother who cares about her, and an attentive stepfather.

But inside, Jillian harbors a terrible secret.

Too frightened to tell, convinced that her friends and loved ones, especially her mother, won't understand—and worse, will blame her—Jillian endures her pain in silence, believing that things will get better. However, as time passes and her dilemma intensifies, the bright, hardworking girl becomes sullen and disinterested in her studies. Then, just when it seems she's on the verge of losing everything, Jillian discovers she has more strength than she ever imagined…and the power to change her fate.

With sensitivity and grace, Kimberla Lawson Roby addresses a very real and serious issue, while delivering the inspiring tale of one family's mission to shed light into the darkest corner of their lives.

MY THOUGHTS:
This story will always be on my mind. Even though this is a work of fiction, I'm sure that this is something that happens everyday in the lives of some children everywhere in the world. Kimberla Lawson Roby did a very good job of writing this sensitive topic.

GET ME OFF THE SHELF!

Thursday, July 26, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

Get Me Off The Shelf! is inspired by *From the Review Pile from*Stepping Out of the Page*hosted by Stephanie. This will be a weekly meme on Thursdays.

The aim of this meme is to showcase books that you own, but just haven't got around to reading 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.

1. Give a synopsis of the book with image.
2. Tell us why you haven't read the book yet, including when you got the book (if you remember).
3. Link the post in the linky below.
4. Visit other blogs and post!

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.

So share what's you need to 'Get off your shelf', or floor, or box . . . I love comments! And if you don't, I'll stalk you :)

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY

Wednesday, July 25, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

This meme Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by *Breaking the Spine* "Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

I'm anticipating the following upcoming books!!!

Touching Smoke(Touch Series #1)
by Airicka Phoenix

Paperback, 320 pages
Expected Publication: July 31, 2012
Publisher: ?

“What am I?”

“Mine… always!”

This summer… their love will annihilate the world!

For sixteen-year-old FALLON BRAEDEN, being haunted was just another day in the life of a gypsy, like being on the run had always been a closely guarded secret her mother would have happily taken to the grave… if her past hadn’t caught with them.

But when Fallon is stalked by fire-throwing demons, nearly killed by rebel mutants and finds a soul mate she can never have, even her normally unusual life is thrown into a tangled web of love, lies and betrayal.

As worlds collide, secrets unfold and blood is spilt, Fallon comes to several unsettling revelations: she’s not entirely human, her creator has a bounty on her head and the only one who can save her is the one person she has to keep at arm’s length or risk destroying the world for.

MY THOUGHTS:
Lots of conflict with twists and turns, seems like this book has it all. I love it!!! And always those forbidden love interests get me every time.

Pushing the Limits

by Katie McGarry
Hardcover, 384 pages
Expected publication: July 31st 2012

Publisher: Harlequin Teen

"I won't tell anyone, Echo. I promise." Noah tucked a curl behind my ear. It had been so long since someone touched me like he did. Why did it have to be Noah Hutchins? His dark brown eyes shifted to my covered arms. "You didn't do that-did you? It was done to you?" No one ever asked that question. They stared. They whispered. They laughed. But they never asked.
So wrong for each other...and yet so right.

No one knows what happened the night Echo Emerson went from popular girl with jock boyfriend to gossiped-about outsider with "freaky" scars on her arms. Even Echo can't remember the whole truth of that horrible night. All she knows is that she wants everything to go back to normal. But when Noah Hutchins, the smoking-hot, girl-using loner in the black leather jacket, explodes into her life with his tough attitude and surprising understanding, Echo's world shifts in ways she could never have imagined. They should have nothing in common. And with the secrets they both keep, being together is pretty much impossible.Yet the crazy attraction between them refuses to go away. And Echo has to ask herself just how far they can push the limits and what she'll risk for the one guy who might teach her how to love again.

"An edgy romance that pulls you in and never lets go. I was hooked!"-Gena Showalter, New York Times bestselling author of the Intertwined series.

MY THOUGHTS:
I'm already liking Noah just from the synopsis. Loving myself some bad boy, who you can't help but fall for. Six more days ... six more days...

Share your WoW! I love comments and if you don't, I'll stalk you :P

Thanks for reading <3

TUESDAY TEASERS

Tuesday, July 24, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

Teaser Tuesday is a meme hosted by MizB
of *Should Be Reading*

Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a random page
3. Share two (2) "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn't give too much away. You don't want to ruin the book for others)
4. Share the title & amp, author too, so that other Tuesday Teaser participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teaser.

I know, I know, I know, I still haven't finished Predestined. I swear this book is good. No lie. I've had other obligations (I can't believe I'm saying this) the past couple of days that is more important than my reading. I only have a little more ways to go, and then I'm finished. So without further ado, here's the book from last week, but with a different teaser.

Predestined by Abbi Glines
Kindle Edition
Published March 29th 2012

You would think after helping save her boyfriend from an eternity in Hell that things would go back to normal. Well, as normal as life can be when you can see souls and your boyfriend is Death. But for Pagan Moore, things are just getting weirder.

The high school quarterback and reigning heartthrob, Leif Montgomery, is missing. While the town is in a frenzy of worry, Pagan is a nervous wreck for other reasons. Apparently good ‘ol Leif isn’t your average teenage boy. He isn’t even human. According to Death, Leif doesn’t have a soul. The quarterback may have skipped town but he’s still showing up in Pagan’s dreams... uninvited.

Dank has known from the beginning Leif wasn’t human. But he hadn’t worried about a simple soulless creature. Now, he realizes he made a grave mistake. Pagan’s soul has been marked since birth as a restitution, to a spirit so dark not even Death walks near it. Dank knows saving Pagan’s soul won’t be easy but Pagan is his. And he’s already proven he’ll defy Heaven to keep her. If Hell wants a piece of him too, then bring it on.

Here's my teasers! :

"I didn't take his soul Pagan, my father did."

"He makes decisions that please him and he overindulges in anyting pleausrable and corrupts enjoyable pursuits, making things that should be good and satisfying into depraved behaviors."

Kindle Edition, Location 3472, 75%

I love comments! Please share your teasers . . .

CRAZY ABOUT COVERS!

Monday, July 23, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

My meme, Crazy about Covers, was inspired by The Bookworms 'Cover Crazy'.

Each week I will reveal a book(s) that I put on my TBR List just because I was Craazzy about the Cover or Title! It can be creepy, beautiful, or a title that was odd or funny . I know that a lot of book lovers may have already seen or heard about some of these books. But I'm just giving my opinions on books that I have come across. Hope you join in!!!

My cover pick(s) this week is:

Exiled (The Never Chronicles #1)

by J.R. Wagner Paperback, 288 pages
Published: June 5, 2012

Publisher: Live Oak Book Group

*Synopsis via Goodreads*

James has never known an ordinary life. As long as he can remember, he and his family have been on the run—moving from place to place, never settling down, never growing roots. Now, just when he’s on the brink of manhood, the very thing his family has been trying to prevent tears him from all he has ever known and thrusts him into a place where he is powerless and alone.
Bent on finding a way back, James must brave a place reserved for the worst of his kind. He quickly learns that the land itself poses a greater threat than its inhabitants and if he is to have any chance of returning, he must work with the very people he’s been raised to fear.

James has known magic since just after he was born. As a sorcerer, his skills are exceptional yet when he wakes in The Never, his abilities are gone. Armed with nothing but determination and the will to survive, he braves a land wrought with dangers, mysteries and temptations meant to ensnare both body and mind and prevent escape forever.

I never read this book,but when I came across it on Goodreads, the first thing I thought was: this cover is creepy! The dark cover can only mean something deadly or evil lurks.

So tell me, did you pick some books this week that was solely based on it's cover or title,whether pretty or scary?

Please share, I love comments!

FOREVER MAN TOUR STOP: Book Excerpt

Thursday, July 19, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

Hi! I'm so excited today that I have the pleasure of promoting Author January Bain's, Forever Man. A paranormal romance, published by Champagne Books. This tour runs from July 14th to August 14th.

About the Author

January Bain hails from Ashern, Manitoba, Canada. Married to the love of her life, her husband Don, she has combined her love of romance with her interest in the paranormal and vampires to produce the FOREVER SERIES of books. She teaches English and Computer courses during the day, and writes at night and in very spare moment she has. She hopes to touch your heart with this first book in the series, Forever Man and would very much enjoy hearing from her readers. www.januarybain.ca

Synopsis

What if you had been given the gift of healing and could save those you loved? And furthermore, discovered you could save the one you love from a vampire’s kiss. There is a catch; of course, the cost of such a healing could mean your own death…

Ellie Hightower is discovering such gifts in the novel, Forever Man by January Bain. She is telepathic, young and bright and has been running from these new found gifts all the way to Nome, Alaska where she encounters the man of her dreams, Mike Stone and an ancient evil force out to take him away from her. Will having goodness and light on her side be enough to save them from Katrianna, a newly resurrected vampire that looks to enslave Mike in her nefarious web?

To find out the truth you will need to read, Forever Man, the first in the FOREVER SERIES by January Bain.

BOOK EXCERPT:

While I waited for her to return I looked out the window, admiring the view of snow-peaked mountains when I heard the screeching of brakes and a thud, then realized someone had hit a dog with a half ton truck right in front of the restaurant. The driver, a young woman in obvious distress, jumped out and cradled the animal’s head in her lap. In an instant I turned and rushed for the stairs, taking them two at a time.

As I reached the woman she looked up at me with stark pleading in her eyes. “I didn’t see him! Please, I need help!”

Crouching down beside them, I carefully laid my hands on the whimpering dog. It looked like a husky, probably a sled dog. He or she was still breathing, but it was labored and loud. I could also see blood on its soft white fur. My heart instantly melted and reached out to the poor creature with its pain-filled, whiskey-brown eyes that seemed to beg me to do something. Despite the gut-wrenching plea, I felt helpless, sheer happenstance had brought this poor animal to this end and I had no power to save it from its fate.

Hesitantly, I reached my hands out and laid them on the poor dog’s head and its eyes seemed to tell me that it knew its fate. Tears flowed and the image of the dog blurred. I felt its pain as my own as I closed my eyes in sheer anguish.

Please God, let this beautiful creature be okay. Suddenly, something came alive inside me like a dam bursting its banks, and a great tidal wave of energy flowed through me from my very core. It was so strong it made me shake and my legs, cramping in the crouch, almost gave way.

A surge of pure power seemed to drive through my hands into the dog as I concentrated my thoughts on it and then all I could see and feel was hot, white light surrounding me for a few brief incredibly thrilling seconds. The light blinded me, its power as strong as the noonday sun. A sense of pure aliveness electrified me, as if I was at the pinnacle of my strength and could rise up and fill the world with goodness and healing. Then, just as suddenly, the floodgates in my mind closed and the white hot energy retreated back into my hands that began to shake violently with the excess energy.

The sensation left as abruptly as it had come and I fell back exhausted from the effort. The dog whimpered, shook itself and sat up. It looked at the two of us as if nothing had happened, its brown eyes shining and its tail wagging as if it didn’t even remember the last few minutes of its life.

The woman, her eyes huge in her round face, looked at me with complete wonder. “How could this be? One minute I thought it was dying, then you came along and now it’s up and fine? It doesn’t make any sense.” The woman shook her head, unwilling to believe her own eyes.

I knew exactly what she meant. Under the sense of complete exhaustion I was now aware of lurked the feeling that the world had slid sideways and then realigned itself in a new configuration.

Standing up, I felt immediately light-headed and woozy and stumbled forward from severe vertigo, catching myself from falling just in time.

“I don’t know—I guess it wasn’t—as hurt as you thought—it must have just been stunned.” I tried to put a sensible spin on recent events, my tongue feeling wooden and clumsy in my mouth. My slurred words made me sound drunk or slow I realized from a muddled distance, my voice echoing in my head.

“But didn’t you see the bright light just before the dog got up?” The woman was not to be deterred from her new sense of wonder.

I knew I had to get away, but an overwhelming sense of fatigue was slowing down my reaction time and was it was like being forced to move in deep, heavy water.

“Who are you?” The woman asked, her tone blunted by suspicion now.

GET ME OFF THE SHELF

Thursday, July 19, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

Get Me Off The Shelf! is inspired by *From the Review Pile from*Stepping Out of the Page*hosted by Stephanie. This will be a weekly meme on Thursdays.

This week I'm spotlighting:
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.

So share what's you need to 'Get off your shelf', or floor, or box . . . I love comments! And if you don't, I'll stalk you :)

STILL ON MY MIND: SLEEPLESS

Wednesday, July 18, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

'Still on my Mind' is a meme inspired by Haley at YA-Aholic

Every Thursday you will feature a book that you read months or even YEARS ago that was so good (or so scary/unique/funny..etc) that it is 'Still on my (your) Mind!'

Please include in your post:

1. The summary of the book (off of goodreads or amazon or whatever!)

2. Make sure you tell us why it is still on your mind, was it super amazing? Super Unique? Super Scary?

Sleepless by Cyn Balog
Hardcover, 215 pages
Published July 13th 2010

Publisher: by Delacorte Books for Young Readers

*image and Synopsis via Goodreads*

Eron DeMarchelle isn't supposed to feel this connection. He is a Sandman, a supernatural being whose purpose is to seduce his human charges to sleep. Though he can communicate with his charges in their dreams, he isn't encouraged to do so. After all, becoming too involved in one human's life could prevent him from helping others get their needed rest.

But he can't deny that he feels something for Julia, a lonely girl with fiery red hair and sad dreams. Just weeks ago, her boyfriend died in a car accident, and Eron can tell that she feels more alone than ever. Eron was human once too, many years ago, and he remembers how it felt to lose the one he loved. In the past, Eron has broken rules to protect Julia, but now, when she seems to need him more than ever, he can't reach her. Eron's time as a Sandman is coming to a close, and his replacement doesn't seem to care about his charges. Worse, Julia is facing dangers she doesn't recognize, and Eron, as he transitions back to being human, may be the only one who can save her. . . .

Even once they've become human again, Sandmen are forbidden to communicate with their charges. But Eron knows he won't be able to forget Julia. Will he risk everything for a chance to be with the girl he loves?

I fell in love with the Sandman.This was a nice quick story. It was almost like a Fairy Tale type story. I wouldn't mind reading again.

WAITING, WAITING, WAITING ON: WAKE

Wednesday, July 18, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

This meme Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by *Breaking the Spine* "Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

I'm anticipating the following upcoming books!!!

Wake (Watersong, #1)by Amanda Hocking

Hardcover, 320 pages
Published: August 7, 2012
Publisher: St. Martin's Press

Gemma seems to have it all—she’s carefree, pretty, and falling in love with Alex, the boy next door. He’s always been just a friend, but this summer they’ve taken their relationship to the next level, and now there’s no going back. Then one night, Gemma’s ordinary life changes forever. She’s taking a late night swim under the stars when she finds Penn, Lexi and Thea partying on the cove. They invite her to join them, and the next morning she wakes up on the beach feeling groggy and sick, knowing something is different.

Suddenly Gemma is stronger, faster, and more beautiful than ever. But her new powers come with a terrifying price. And as she uncovers the truth, she’s is forced to choose between staying with those she loves—or entering a new world brimming with dark hungers and unimaginable secrets.

This will be my first time reading Amanda Hocking's novels. I've heard so much about her due to her self-published success. And since I'm currently in the baby stages of writing my first novel (clapping), this success has got my adrenaline going! Write Sherri, write!

Anyway, back to this awesome book. I always fall in love with paranormal romance genres and from the synopsis, it seems a good fit for me. And the cover is beautiful! Hocking's other books seem to have good ratings, and I'll get to those eventually. My freakin' TBR List just keeps growing! I need to go to a support group to help me to stop buying books even when I know I can't read it at that moment.

Share your WoW! I love comments and if you don't, I'll stalk you. Wait, that may be in your favor if I do that :)

Thanks for reading <3

MUSING MONDAY

Monday, July 16, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

MUSING MONDAYS… is a weekly meme hosted by MizB from I Should Be Reading, she will ask a book/reading-related question, and you answer with your own thoughts on the topic.

This week’s musing asks…

What are you currently reading? Is it any good? Would you recommend it?

I'm currently reading Predestined by Abbi Glines. It's the second book in the series of Existence. Very good story line! Nothing like a mix of suspense, mystery, and of course forbidden romance. Oh, and a lot of hot characters! I would recommend it to everyone because of the hot guys! Did I mention the hot guys?! Ha!
