Monday Note!

So over the weekend I ended up catching a bug.  So now I have been dealing with temps ranging from 99.4 all the way to 102.3  lucky me. 

So I thought well I guess ill get some reading in.  Ya that didn't work.  I had gotten the Selection by Kiera Cass from Edelweiss and ended up reading 1 page 5 times before I understood what was going on.  I did get through it though.  So That book review will be posted soon!  It got 5 Stars by the way!  I can't wait for the next one!

So after finishing up that book yesterday I thought well I have a ton of print books that I need to see if I have in ebook so I can get rid of them.  So that is what I have been doing for the past hour and a half. And I know have two good size boxes to take to the used book store. 

So on with the Update!

What I finished

Skylark- by: Meagan Spooner This one I read half of it and had to put it down. I might pick it back up later to see if it gets better as I hate not finishing a book. 

The Selection - by: Kiera Cass This one was wonderful read it in two days. Cant wait for the next one. 

What I Started

Well right now I'm going to finish going through my print books but I think that the next book I'm going to start is one of mine.  Something I don't have to review and I'm just reading for fun.  (don't worry a review will be posted for the book)  

Except the Queen- by: Jane Yolen this book like so few others is not available as an ebook. So reading it in print. 

TBR

I still have a few things I need to read for review.

Book Description

Publication Date: October 16, 2012

It’s been over six months since the eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano. Alex and Darla have been staying with Alex’s relatives, trying to cope with the new reality of the primitive world so vividly portrayed in Ashfall, the first book in this series. It’s also been six months of waiting for Alex’s parents to return from Iowa. Alex and Darla decide they can wait no longer and must retrace their journey into Iowa to find and bring back Alex’s parents to the tenuous safety of Illinois. But the landscape they cross is even more perilous than before, with life-and-death battles for food and power between the remaining communities. When the unthinkable happens, Alex must find new reserves of strength and determination to survive.

Temptation by: Karen Ann Hopkins

Book Description

Publication Date: June 26, 2012 | Series: A Temptation Novel

Your heart misleads you.  That's what my friends and family say.
But I love Noah.
And he loves me.

Blackwood by: Gwenda Bond

Book Description

Publication Date: September 4, 2012 | Series: Strange Chemistry

On Roanoke Island, the legend of the 114 people who mysteriously vanished from the Lost Colony hundreds of years ago is just an outdoor drama for the tourists, a story people tell. But when the island faces the sudden disappearance of 114 people now, an unlikely pair of 17-year-olds may be the only hope of bringing them back.

Miranda, a misfit girl from the island's most infamous family, and Phillips, an exiled teen criminal who hears the voices of the dead, must dodge everyone from federal agents to long-dead alchemists as they work to uncover the secrets of the new Lost Colony. The one thing they can't dodge is each other.

Blackwood is a dark, witty coming of age story that combines America's oldest mystery with a thoroughly contemporary romance.
