I was planning on doing weekly recaps at least every couple weeks or so, but getting a post prepped for the weekend is a challenge! So I usually just use a review (I normally have some back ups ready, but I do my middle grade and children's reviews on Sunday's usually). This time I reviewed my middle grade book yesterday so I freed up today.
I have some news, I reached over 2,000 likes on facebook! I've had the page less than a year (yeah, it took me awhile to put one up) so it's not too bad. But if you aren't 'liking' me there yet, I hope you do so soon!
Also, I've decided (I'm pretty sure) that I'll move to wordpress. I don't think it's going to happen immediately but we're starting to plan the designs and stuff. I'll be having my business and my blog on separate sites (blogs) so it'll be easier to navigate. It'll be October at the earliest before I move (I think).
First up for news stuff, I have a new tour sign-up posted. It's for a YA fantasy called Rook. I only read a sample (though a pretty large sample) and I really liked it, so I hope you sign up and give it a shot! You can find the sign ups HERE.
My week according to instagram:
I read The Warrior & the Flower by Camille Picott and WOW, it was AMAZING! Review will go up this week. :)
I also read My Life Next Door, and it was amazing TOO! Two amazing books in one week. WIN!
Note: I read two others too, but they were not as amazing.
However... the end of last week (a week ago almost exactly) I read this book and it was also AMAZING. So yeah, I guess I've had some winners lately. YAY!
I did a gift exchange on facebook and my person sent me these goodies all the way from Germany! Of course my kids claimed most of it... but the book sounds great! Have you read it? It has a male POV, I love male POV...
So I'm hosting the tour for Dreamscape (starts August 12th actually) and Christie sent me a gorgeous paperback copy! It's signed with a very sweet message as well. I love it! Thank you Christie!
I won Tidal at Always YA at Heart and it was provided by the publisher. Thank you Ellen and the publisher, I've heard it's great! And I got The Deepest Night for review. I'm SO excited to read this (I'm actually reading it now, though I may be finished by the time this post goes up). It's the second book in The Sweetest Dark series.
Here's the cover:
It was my lucky week cause I also won Starglass by Phoebe North. I won a giveaway from her tour and she sent me a signed finished copy. I was really excited because this book sounds amazing! I think I'll actually read it really soon.
She even signed it to me, so it's even more beautiful! Thank you so much Phoebe North!
It may seem like I win a lot, but actually this is the first week in awhile that I've won anything, so it's extra special!
That's pretty much it for my week! How was yours?
OH! Before I leave, remember to sign up for The Last Hurrah Giveaway Hop HERE.
AND Something Wicked Returns! This time around we're including a giveaway hop. Check it all out HERE.
I think that's it, but before I go I have to remind you all to check out the tour page and see if there are any tours you haven't yet signed up for that you don't want to miss out on. You can find the list HERE. I've been filling up the fall schedule, there's lots of good ones folks!

Oh my gosh! So many wonderful books! But I think my favorite is the swap. Wow, I never thought you can do that! :) That's a great way to be friends with another bookworm! :)

Love posts like these! That's awesome you did a swap with someone from Germany. Looks like you got some great goodies. I love swapping things with people. :)
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine read and loved My Life Next Door (and I've read many great reviews) so I should really read it ASAP.
If you have any questions about the switch to Wordpress let me know. I'll do my best to help you. I love that I moved. I'm happy with it.
ReplyDeleteYou got some great books and goodies. I hope yo enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteYum for that German candy-I am not familiar with the book but I love male POV too so I'm excited to learn more about it! Happy reading :)
