And so, after my terrible experience and dramatic expulsion from WordPress.com, which happened on the very day my blog tour post for Endsinger was to go live, I’ve decided to repost my review, start the giveaway over again, and join in the celebration of this AWESOME trilogy! For those of you who missed it the […]
Some of you may have noticed that this blog was shut down for almost a week, and I must say that it’s been somewhat, err, stressful. Here is the chain of events that has brought me to WordPress.org: 1. Last Friday, I breezily logged into my dashboard, thinking of all the posts I needed to […]
Lots has happened in the last week with BB&B, but I think I’m up and running again. I have a post coming out soon explaining my recent experience of being suspended from WordPress.com, but in the meantime I’m checking to see if I can post something new. So, just a test, nothing more!
Endsinger (The Lotus War #3) by Jay Kristoff Genre: Adult Fantasy Publisher: Thomas Dunne Books Release date: November 25 2014 Source: ARC from publisher Pages: 432 The nitty-gritty: A huge finish to a big, beautiful, and tragic series.

I gleefully devoured The Six-Gun Tarot nearly two years ago, and I was chomping at the bit (hey, this is a western, so that metaphor is apt) to read Belcher’s follow-up. I was not […]
I hardly ever do book trailer reveals, but OH HOLY CRAP YOU GUYS!! This is the best book trailer I’ve EVER SEEN! (And I’m not just sayin’ that). If this trailer doesn’t turn you into a Gina Damico fan, I don’t know what will. Gina’s upcoming book, Hellhole, hits shelves in January, but today you […]

Is anyone else surprised that it’s already November? This year is flying by, and with only two more months to fit in books for 2014, I’m going to be reading faster than ever! October was a very dismal reading month for me, not because I didn’t enjoy the books I read, but because I read […]
