So today’s challenge is to come up with our dream cast for Hopeless/Losing Hope.
She’s so quirky and sweet, and I really think that she could do a wonderful job emboding Sky, and really getting her character right.
ignore his hunger games thing, I really think he’d be a wonderful Holder
Don’t forget to check of Tiffany’s Book Hangover to see her picks! 🙂
This is a set of millionaire romances.. it seems like that’s the trend in popular romance novels right now.
I’ve only read two, so here they are! 🙂
Â
Don’t forget to check out Tiffany’s Book Hangover for her Millionaires! 🙂
I’ve read so many wonderful good this year, and this was definitely the year of the Indies for me, because I had never really focused on indie books before, because I never really looked into it!
I have so many books, the firsts in series, that I have loved this year, and have mentioned in previous posts. If only one of them had a second book out already, I could pick them. Â But alas, I was going to pick a book that at least had two in a series!
    
    
These retellings of Persephone myth became a favorite of mine this year. I flew through them all this year, and love every minute of reading them. It’s an interesting twist, a wonderful set of characters, and a handsome, well meaning man, with a dark past, and a darker job.
Pierce becomes the consort of the Underworld, and she now needs to watch her back, because there are a lot of people who aren’t too happy about it.
If you like greek myths, and retellings, this is a book for you. If you like a handsome guy with a mysterious past, and a tortured soul, this is for you. Â Just wonderful!
Check out Tiffany’s Book Hangover to see her favorite series! I bet she’s got a lovely indie one! 🙂
So, today… a wonderful post! 🙂
Random number 9, for day 10, but oh well, let’s go for it! 🙂 This will be a mix of indie books and popular books! These are in no particular order.. I love all of them equally!
So those are my book boyfriends… who are yours?  Check out Tiffany’s Book Hangover to see what book boyfriends she has! 🙂
Well, today’s challenge is one that I will completely fail, as I’ve never read a biker boy romance! As I said, I’m not much of a romance reader! 😦
But in lieu of having a favorite, here’s some hot guys on bikes (or  close enough)
    
  
Here’s some Biker Romance books that have great reviews!
   
  
What’s your favorite biker romance?
I bet Tiffany Book Hangover has a good biker romance today, check it out 🙂
As I’ve said, I don’t read many romances.. but one romance spin off I loved that featured a rock star was…
I have an incredible weakness for Pride & Prejudice spin off, or re-imaginings, and this one was one of my favorites. The author really kept the personalities true to the character but transported them to the 21st century and let them act just like anyone else. It’s a little sexy, a whole lot interesting, and probably my favorite rock star romance! 🙂
As always the photo links to the amazon page, so if you’re interested in this book, and if you love hot guys, rock stars, and Pride & Prejudice, then check this one out because I promise, it’s amazing and I wish there was more! 🙂
Head on over to Tiffany’s Book Hangover to see what she picked today.. I bet she picked a good one! 🙂
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this.. do you have a favorite re-imagining? Do you like P&P? What’s your rockstar romance?
So, in line with our theme for August, I’m starting Day 1! Let’s dive right into it! 🙂
This is tough, as I’ve done so much reading in the last year, both mainstream and indie writers!
(You can click the photos to head to their websites!)
In no particular order…
  
  
These books are basically your favorite romantic comedy, put into book form ,which you can take with you and read throughout your day! 🙂 I went on a big kick earlier this year, reading all of Meg Cabot’s adult and YA books. I wanted to prove I could do it, and I always wanted to reach my goal of reading 300 books this year (Though I think I’ve got more than that on my Kindle currently!) I loved these books, Meg has a sassy, comedic style in her adult writing, and just the right amount of smart humor. Her leading ladies have real jobs and aren’t looking for a man to take them away. They love their careers, and the are just living life. I highly suggest this series to any women out there, because they are funny, smart, and cute, and just the perfect summer fun read 🙂
So technically, this will be a series.. the second one is coming! They have promised me. I adored this book, which you can read about here.
This dystopian novel falls in a long line of similarly set novel, futures too disturbed or shocking to be real, but where society has degraded to. Abi & Missy do an amazing, wonderful, outstanding job of creating a horrible future, and making it so real and so raw and enticing. The plot centers around the 7 Deadly Sins, the way the society now convicts their criminals. In the current society, if you were accused of one of the 7 sins, you were branded, and thrown in the prison camp, The Hole. Lexi, accused of lust, has been thrown in the hole, with her personal guard Cole. This story about overcoming your reality and finding grace and hope. Lexi is a stunning character, and a real triumph of human spirit and hope. You need to start this series now so you won’t be left out when book two has us all talking! 🙂
     
Not only do these books have the most wonderfully intricate covers, but the story is incredible. Don’t get me started on the whole vampire/ human thing, but this story, which has a witch/vampire love story involved. The first book is a bit slow, and has more descriptions of food then are completely needed. (Always talking about food, wine, food, wine) It’s set in Oxford, which is the most perfectly beautiful setting to imagine. But it’s the second book that really made me love this series and eagerly wait for the third one! History buffs, pay attention, they travel in time! They go and visit Queen Elizabeth I!! This for me made the book. I am a lover of Elizabethan fiction and non-fiction and enjoy seeing Elizabeth portrayed in books. This book has her cast as the jealous, vain queen that by some accounts she really was. But Matthew (vampire) and Diana (witch) really develop as characters in this second book, and give the readers waiting pains for the third one!! 🙂

Love to see your thoughts in the comments as well! What are your three top series!? This one was hard, as I love so many, Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings, Hunger Games, so so many! 🙂
