Welcome to my monthly giveaway, where I recap all the books I reviewed the previous month, and offer one reader the chance to win one of them. OK, so September was a TERRIBLE month for me review-wise. Not in the quality of books I read, but in the QUANTITY. I had too much real life […]
Welcome to my stop on the Spooktacular Giveaway Hop 2015, hosted by I Am a Reader, Not a Writer. Over 200 blogs are participating this year, so check out all the links below and try your luck at some other blogs! For my stop, I’ve chosen three books that are at the top of my […]
The nitty-gritty: A mind-blowing presentation of an exciting space adventure, and one of the most unique books I’ve ever read! I was lucky enough to land one of the nifty hardcover ARCs of Illuminae, and that made all the difference in my reading experience. This is definitely a book you’ll want to read in physical […]
![Over-Booked [36] – A Book Haul Post](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/over-booked-new.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Over-Booked is my every-other-week book haul post, where I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves and The Sunday Post. I love to share the new books that make their way into my home, and I’d love to know if you plan on reading them too. Once again, Skyhorse Publishing has been very generous in the last […]
Bat Out of Hell was one of those books that ended up in a much different place than it started, at least for me. The story gets off to a strong start as we witness a horrific outbreak of an Ebola-like virus in Indonesia, a virus that kills 100% of people who contract it only hours […]
Happy Fall, everyone! Unfortunately for those of us in California (and no doubt other western states), Fall has yet to make an appearance. A quick check of the temps this week shows highs in the 90s! All I want is to be able to wear jeans and a hoodie, I mean really, is that too […]
The nitty-gritty: A sprawling adventure story filled with airships, magic crystals, military maneuvers and talking cats. Yes, I said talking cats! Despite the fact that it took me two weeks to read The Aeronaut’s Windlass, I had so much fun. This was my first Jim Butcher book, and I can see why he’s so popular. […]
The nitty-gritty: A poignant and magical tale of feuding families and forbidden love, perfectly written. Embers clung to the edges, dense as a band of stars. The fabric burned and thinned. It glowed translucent, and then crumbled to ash. The thin wood of the porcelain vines released the scent of their blue berries, and the […]
The nitty-gritty: And we’re off! The story starts to take shape, we get to know the characters better. You can read my review of Badge, Book, and Candle (Bookburners #1) here. The walls of the room were hair and plaster. No. Splinters and sinew. No. The policeman didn’t know what the walls were. And, within […]
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the Broke and the Bookish, where they have a new top ten theme each week. Head on over and join in yourself, it’s fun! This week we’re taking a look at our Top Ten Fall 2015 books, and the way I interpret this is to list the books coming […]
