The Good The Bad and the Are-You-Kidding-Me?

Today we have some highly anticipated novels and their covers in tow. After religiously stalking author websites, we were so excited about some of them that we just had to bring them up to your attention. The ohhhhhing, awwwwing and squeeing unnerved most of the people around us so we had to find another outlet. 😉 It’s a varied mix of genres but well you know how these book addictions work. So take a drink and join the discussion.

Caro: Alright so I read the Mortal Instruments series a few years back and I have to admit I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t relate the books if I read them now. But I can’t help but want to read City of Lost Souls. I mean come ON!!! Jace and Clary embracing on the cover? YAY They both look AWESOME! It looks romantic. *sigh*.
Same thing with The Taken. I have been traumatized by …

We Love Your Comments Giveaway Winner & new Start

This winner of our We Love Your Comments Giveaway for Decemberis……

Christine

who commented on our post: ‘Romance and Me: Holiday Romances“‘

“Sure, some of them can be too sickeningly sweet and cheesy, but somehow around the holidays cheesiness is tolerated a bit more, don’t you think?”

YES!!! I feel the same way!

I started reading Christmas themed books–and Christmas romances, in particular about two years ago and this third year has pretty much set this new tradition of mine into stone. It really helps awaken the Christmas spirit in me as I start to read these types of stories in December. I can’t imagine NOT reading at least one Christmas romance this time of year anymore!

Congrats hon! I just sent you an email. Please email us back in the in the next 72 hours to claim your price.

We will now start counting for January. Here …

He’s exactly what she’s always wanted. And she unleases him like a force of nature…

Lucy was once the beloved Goddess of the Moon, and she could have any man she wanted. But these days, the goddesses of the Etruscan pantheon are all but forgotten. The only rituals she enjoys now are the local hockey games, whereone ferociously handsome player still inflames her divine blood…
