Take a Breath...Watch a Vid

This is a meme that I have created.  Sometimes you just have to take a break from all the reading and how about watching a vid during that break.  

Today I'm sharing the newest and final Catching Fire Trailer.  This one is stunning and I love it!!!

Waiting on Wednesday #28

Teaser Tuesday: #36

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teaser. 

Okay I know the rules say 2 teasers, but this is going to be more than a few lines.  I can't help it, this part is my favorite and I laughed so hard even though I knew it was coming. 

 

Aria's mouth went instantly dry. Standing in front of the classroom was Ezra from the bar. Ezra, the recipient of her haiku. Her Ezra, looking lanky and adorable in a Rosewood jacket and tie, his hair combed, his buttons buttoned correctly, and a leather-bound lesson planner under his left arm. Standing at the blackboard and writing...Mr. Fitz, AP English. He stared at her, his face draining of color. "Holy shit." The entire class turned around to see who he was looking at. Aria didn't want to stare back at them, so she looked down at her text message. Aria: Suprise! I wonder what your pig puppet will have to say about this...-A Holy shit, indeed.

To Be Read List (Week of 10/21/2013)

 

So you read the title of this post correct, I am revamping my To Be Read List posts.  I've been thinking of this for a long time and I really want to combine some of my favorite posts and make them mine.  So what I want to do is combine my weekly updates, my weekly reading posts, and Showcase Sunday posts all together.  So this is what I have come up with.  My To Be Read Lists will be a weekly post with all these combined.  This post is my first week of doing this.  I got some of this idea by checking out several of my favorite blogs, I have combined their ideas into one and now this is my To Be Read List Weekly Posts.

So this past week I got a few great books.  Check out the great image below and the links to each book on Goodreads are under the image.   This week I got a few books from Scholastic and I want to say Thank you so much for these.  I also got a few books from a used bookstore to add to my collection and a book convention.

Review: Infinite Betrayal (Blood Fued #1)by Gayle Donnelly and Robyn Mackenzie

Title: Infinite Betrayal

Authors: Gayle Donnelly and Robyn Mackenzie

Publisher: Ellora's Cave

Format: Ebook

Book one in the Blood Feud series. Mina Roarke has always been told she is special. In what way, she’s never fully understood…until circumstances lead her down a path of adrenaline-charged danger and blazing sexual heat, and introduce her to a world she never knew existed. Mathias, a warrior for a secret shifter race known as the Coteri, has been ordered to protect Mina at all costs. Although his oath to protect her is paramount, can he rein in his animal instincts long enough to avoid claiming the one person he’s forbidden to have? Reader Advisory: This book contains brief scenes of torture with explicit sexual overtones that some readers might find offensive.
