[spacer] Beautiful, imaginative, seductive, addictive. [spacer] This story always leaves me breathless and begging for more. Aaaaarh, such a wonderful frustration! I must confess that this series is killing me slowly, because how in the world am I going to wait for god-knows-how-long until the last one comes out? It’s not like this is a … Read more
[spacer] I do believe in magic: the magic of words. [spacer] And Laini Taylor might as well have pure magic on the tip of her fingers, as that’s how enchanted I am by her story. This series is just too wonderful for words, absolutely mesmerising! And I could never recommend it enough. “Once upon a time,an … Read more
In a mood for something new… I usually feature on the blog books about which I know at least a tiny bit. This is not the case – as only one of my book-friends has ever heard about this series. So let’s take the chance and find, together, what this story is about. Below, … Read more
Today is the release day of the lovely “He+She” by Michelle Warren. I’ve been shouting my excitement for this story all over the internet lately and now I am happy that other people will be able to read it and fall in love with it like I did. Oh, I’ve never been more happy to … Read more
[spacer] Achingly beautiful and incredibly moving! [spacer] Some stories are just like that and they reach deep into the core of my soul and they fill me with so much happiness. They break my heart a bit and then wash away each tear with their intensity. … Flat-Out Celeste is one of a kind. You … Read more
Some covers are dreamy!… And just look at this one!
“Marguerite Caine’s physicist parents are known for their radical scientific achievements. Their most astonishing invention: the Firebird, which allows users to jump into parallel universes, some vastly altered from our own. But when Marguerite’s father is murdered, the killer—her parent’s handsome and enigmatic assistant Paul—escapes into another dimension before the law can touch him.
Marguerite can’t let the man who destroyed her family go free, and she races after Paul through different universes, where their lives entangle in increasingly familiar ways. With each encounter she begins to question Paul’s guilt—and her own heart. Soon she discovers the truth behind her father’s death is more sinister than she ever could have imagined.
“
Some covers are stylish… And just look at this one! “The second installment in the epic Starbound trilogy by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner introduces a new pair of star-crossed lovers on two sides of a bloody war.
Jubilee Chase and Flynn Cormac should never have met.
Lee is captain of the forces sent to Avon to crush the terraformed planet’s rebellious colonists, but she has her own reasons for hating the insurgents.
Rebellion is in Flynn’s blood. Terraforming corporations make their fortune by recruiting colonists to make the inhospitable planets livable, with the promise of a better life for their children. But they never fulfilled their promise on Avon, and decades later, Flynn is leading the rebellion.”
Some covers are to die for!… And just look at this one.
“There is danger in dreaming. But there is even more danger in waking up.
Blue Sargent has found things. For the first time in her life, she has friends she can trust, a group to which she can belong. The Raven Boys have taken her in as one of their own. Their problems have become hers, and her problems have become theirs.
The trick with found things though, is how easily they can be lost.
Friends can betray.
Mothers can disappear.
Visions can mislead.
Certainties can unravel.”
Expected publication: October 21st 2014
[spacer] Oh, how I loved this book, how it melted my heart! [spacer] Beautiful. Heartwarming. Funny. Romantic. Crazily cute. Emotional. Perfect. That’s all He+She is… and more. If I could put it in a bowl and eat it with a spoon, I would endlessly savour it and enjoy it as much as I do with the mocca-creme … Read more
You know how it goes, you’ve been there … Disappointed, holding on to something that meant the world to you.. Or so you thought. But you know what you didn’t know back then? That in love and war everything is possible and the tides will turn when you least expect it. “Sobs force their way … Read more
[spacer] This story was pretty intense [spacer] There was so much action, plenty of ‘take my breath away’ kind of moments, also there were many turnarounds that I barely got to wrap my head around. It was just as insane as the first one and the need to switch between dual POVs just as strong … Read more
You know what I really love? Besides reading that is, I love beginnings. All kinds of beginnings, in different colours and shapes. And they follow me everywhere, even in my secret reading world. I love it when a favourite author of mine brings out a new story, with new characters and new adventures to … Read more
I have this theory, that a person could like any book in the world – if the mood is right. I wonder how differently I could have seen this story; if maybe on another time I would have found it just as entertaining as other book-friends had. I really love reading and I always want … Read more
Give me now! I don’t usually find the time to follow weekly memes (to read some yes; to write a post not so much), but today I received by email this post from a book friend and I started to think about all the amazing bookish things I’d like in my life. So let’s see.. … Read more
[spacer] I didn’t know I was into retellings [spacer] Well… stop that thought right there, because if I think better about it, I am actually not. As what I liked the most about this book is that it has almost nothing in common with the original story. It feels incredibly fresh, it stands out on … Read more
I am not sure why it took me this long to review this book. Lately I’ve been struggling to find my words. And it is even harder with books that have tons of reviews already – what can I tell you that no one has before? We started this thing together. That’s how we’re going … Read more
What can I say, I am expanding my reading universe these days and this is taking me on an incredibly crazy ride all over the fantastic world, meeting all kinds of strange creatures that normally I wouldn’t even dream of reading about (not to mention love them). And reading about trolls would have been probably … Read more
This is not a post about books. This is not even about reading.. But if my words can reach you, then there is a connection formed already. And if that is the case, I’ll take the liberty of asking you to think about what you see/hear next and to decide very well where to … Read more
[spacer] Such a wonderful ending to an amazing series! [spacer] Such a rush, such a tremendously touching carousel of emotions. This story has.. everything: edge gripping action, mind-blowing turnarounds, laughing out-loud humour and a bit of a heartbreak every now and then. What more can one expect from a book, huh? Saying goodbye to these characters … Read more
[spacer] Simply as beautiful as the cover [spacer] …Which actually takes my breath away! Isn’t it refreshing to read something that doesn’t resemble anything (or ‘everything’) you’ve read before? To meet characters that seem new in many ways, but as close to you as your best friends; to witness action that keeps you on the edge … Read more
Today we celebrate ‘Dragobete’, the equivalent of ‘Love Day’ (of if you want, your Valentine’s Day).
‘Dragobete’ is a traditional Romanian holiday originating from Dacian times and celebrated on February, the 24th. On this day, considered locally the first day of spring, boys and girls gather vernal flowers and sing together. It is a common belief in some parts of Romania that, during this celebration, if you step over your partner’s foot, you will have the dominant role in your relationship.
I was lucky to receive this book, a thing that made me really happy, as I’ve had my eyes on it for a while based on my tiny crush on the gorgeous cover. I started reading it the very moment I got my hands on it (or well, on my kindle, but who needs so … Read more
I have a really hard time explaining you just how much I love this series, how incredibly great it is (from the beautiful writing, to the amazing pack of characters, the laughing-out-loud kind of humour and the fascinating world and the too-awesome-to-be true plot-line)
This being said.. Where’s the next book?!
To talk about this book.. Well I could write another novel about it, to be honest, as there are so many things to speak of – all of them great, be assured. It was just as beautiful as the first one! The world as dangerous, the characters just as fleshed out, also it felt like there … Read more
That’s it, I found a book I want to live in!
For me this book was perfect: perfectly-awesome dynamics, perfectly-sweet romance and just a perfectly-bit of sadness to make up for the perfectly-amazing ‘giggleness’.
Yes, I am a also a ‘perfect’ dork in love with romantic stories, but what can I say? I just loved this story so very much!
Hi, guys! I am pleased to have Cara Rosalie Olsen on the blog today, talking about writing, ideas that come and go & her book “Awakening Foster Kelly”. I didn’t get the chance to read that story but if you did I can’t wait to find out what you think of it. Happy reading and … Read more
I really don’t know why it took me so long to get to this wonderful story. It’s incredible: unique, with fleshed out characters, with a confusing intrigue that only gets more interesting with each page, and a world built so wonderfully – half fantasy, half dystopia, a great mix that left me in awe. Well..
