Welcome to Link Salad! I know lots of bloggers do roundup posts with links to interesting internet content, and I’ve been coming across so much relevant information lately, that I wanted to start my own roundup of sorts. I’m not sure how often Link Salad will appear, but I’m hoping to make this a weekly […]
Today’s Top Ten Tuesday (hosted by The Broke and the Bookish) is definitely my favorite of the year! And what a hard Top Ten to narrow down…I read so many wonderful books this year. Every book on my list received a five-star review, but many of my five-star reviews aren’t on this list. Cutting the […]
I’m hoping I got you with the word “free.” Did it work? Alma Katsu, author of The Taker and The Reckoning has written a story based on two of her characters, and that story is free to download from Amazon today and tomorrow only, August 7th & 8th. If you are familiar with Jonathan and […]
(Caution: This review contains spoilers for The Taker, the first book in The Taker Trilogy) Alma Katsu is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I loved her first book, The Taker (you can read my review here), and I was lucky enough to get an advanced reader’s copy of the second book in the […]

Includes a paperback copy of The Taker, a proof of the paperback cover (pretty cool item, I’ve never actually seen one of these), sticky notes, a pen, bookmarks, and a “faux” wine label that refers […]
Welcome to another In My Mailbox, hosted by The Story Siren. I wasn’t really expecting anything this week, but I did actually receive something in my mailbox, as well as an e-book and a bookstore purchase. So here we go: The Reckoning by Alma Katsu. Release date: June 19, 2012. The sequel to the wonderfully […]
The Taker has been on my to-read list since it came out last September, but I only recently found time to fit it into my reading schedule. I’m so glad I did, because this is a book that should not be missed. Although the cover design is lovely, it didn’t really prepare me for the […]
It’s a sad truth: there is never enough time to read everything I want to. But look! You can see from the above photo that I own all ten books. It’s not like I couldn’t find them at the library! Kids, husband, dogs, life…they all try to pull me away from reading. They want […]
