“Waiting” on Wednesday #5

Oct 30, 2013
 
“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spin, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.
 This Week my Waiting on Wednesday is Fates by Lanie Bross
 
 
Expected Publication: February 11th 2014
Publisher: Delacorte Press – Random House
Format: Hardcover (336 Pages)
Series: Fates #1
Genre: Fantasy, Romance, Science Fiction
ISBN13: 9780385742825
 

One moment. One foolish desire. One mistake. And Corinthe lost everything.

She fell from her tranquil life in Pyralis Terra and found herself exiled to the human world. Her punishment? To make sure people’s fates unfold according to plan. Now, years later, Corinthe has one last assignment: kill Lucas Kaller. His death will be her ticket home.

But for the first time, Corinthe feels a tingle of doubt. It begins as a lump in her throat, then grows toward her heart, and suddenly she feels like she is falling all over again–this time for a boy she knows she can never have. Because it is written: one of them must live, and one of them must die. In a universe where every moment, every second, every fate has already been decided, where does love fit in?

This book sounds really interesting and different from what I have read. I love fantasy so I really home I enjoy this book. The cover is gorgeous as well. I really hope I enjoy this when it’s time to read it.

 
This is what I am waiting for this Wednesday. What are you waiting on?

Top Ten Scariest Looking Book Covfile:///C:/Users/angel/Downloads/03b7f9c0da575e9aa6b5fbe079c71dfb.jpgers

Oct 29, 2013
 
 
Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that one of the bloggers at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. All Bloogers are then welcomed to join. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Scariest Looking Book Covers 
This week was kind of hard in a way, as I don’t think I have ever read ‘scary’ books with ‘scary’ covers. Not that I don’t like them or that I am not into them, I just have never picked one of them up. So this list consist of, covers that I do, find scary in one way or another.
 
1. Fallen by Lauren Kate – this cover in a sense is not scary, scary, but I do find the dark colours very gothic like and dark, which in some cases I do find scarier.

 

2. The House of Dead Maids by Clare B. Dunkle –  This cover is just creepy, scary and just plain eerie.

3. The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff – This cover is scary, anything to do with harming babies is scary to me but. The colours used, the weapons hanging on an old tree, above a babies pram. With all the low clouds/smoke very scary.
4. Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna #1) by Kendare Blake – I hate old house, they just creep me out so much, so having the old house in the background is enough already, but then the black, whites and greys with only the title, the bottom of her dress and what seems to be leaves or the shreds of material in red, makes it that much more creep. The fact that we only see her back, with her black hair going to one side with the wind, just creepy.

5. Asylum by Madeleine Roux – First of all the title of the book already, freaks me out, but the way it’s written is creepy as. Also the depiction of the figure of the girl and now it’s not full made out, how her face is somewhat not there makes it that much more scary. And how there is little light.

6. Sleepless by Thomas Fahy  –  the way that the title is written on the sleeping mask in like a cut, the blood dripping her face, makes it look really scary.

 

7. Drought by Pam Bachorz –The girls face is transparent and you can see right through her and see the creepy, old woods is pretty scary to me.


8. Time of the Witches by Anna Myers– don’t need to say much about this cover, it speaks for its self.

9. Malice by Griffin Hayes– This cover is scary, come on a red eye, with skin that’s not the colour of normal skin.

 

10. Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (Miss Peregrine #1) by Ransom Riggs– This is just a creepy cover. Like you wound not think it’s scary but it is. I think anything with kids like this is scary.

 
Sorry that, if it looks really wired, I’m not sure what has happened. What do you think of the books I’ve chosen? Do you think they are scary? What books are on your list?

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
…

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
