Merry Christmas

I know I have been absent for the last couple of weeks but I will be back in the new year ready to read and review.
Till then...


Be well, drive safe and all the rest of it!

Happy Blog Hop Friday!

For this blog hop I was intending to have a review of Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead ready to post along with it... BUT
I don't want Vampire Academy to end! I know there is going to be a spin off type series but it wont be the same.
So you will have to wait until next week for that because I am reading 100 pages at a time to make it last just that little bit longer.

Any who... Lets get on with the hopping madness



As usual Miss Parajunkee has a feature blogger for us to all check out, Another Book Junkie does some good reviews and I have enjoyed checking out her blog today.
The question for this week is

Do you have an under-noticed author that you think we should all know about?


I still think Parker Blue is pretty cool. Only has two books out that I know of but they are great reads and I cant wait for the third to come out!
Check them out here Demon Underground series

December 7, 2010

And the winner is....

Jessica Rabbit!

Using Random.org Jessica was picked as the winner of Richelle Mead's final book in the Vampire academy series, Last Sacrifice!!

December 4, 2010

Giveaway time!

Okay I am so thrilled to see that Richelle Mead's Last Sacrifice novel is nearly out, I have decided to give a copy of it away!




The astonishing final novel in Richelle Mead's epic series! Murder. Love. Jealousy. And the ultimate sacrifice. Now, with Rose on trial for her life and Lissa first in line for the Royal Throne, nothing will ever be the same between them.









All you have to do is be a follower of my blog and leave a comment here. Too easy!!

I will pick the winner at random on Tuesday the 7th of December as that is the official release day.

The giveaway is international... So long as Book Depository delivers to you, you are eligible to enter.

Hippity Hoppity Hop!

I missed last weeks hop due to every day life taking over, so I am back this week and ready to hop again!

I have already hopped on over to Parajunkee's View and checked out her feature blog for the week and am going to answer her question below.

This week we are being asked

What do you do besides reading / reviewing as a hobby??

To that I laugh and and then wonder what it is I really do with my life. 

Seriously though, I spend time with my kids, lots of time at the beach, and at the moment renovating my house takes up more than it;s fair share of my time!

 Book Blogger Hop

As soon as it is up I will also answer this weeks question from Crazy for Books as well.

Here it is...

 "What very popular and hyped book in the blogosphere did you NOT enjoy and how did you feel about posting your review?"

 The second book in Jeaniene Frost's Night Huntress series was the one that really sticks out to me (One foot in the grave). It has had nothing but good reviews from everyone, and apparently chapter 32 was a must read. But I will be honest and say that when I saw someone mention chapter 32 I had to go back and see what they were on about. It wasn't what I expected from reading the first book and if/when I go on to read the third I really hope it blows me out of the water for giving it only 1.5 out of 5.

Happy blogging and reading book bloggers!

December 2, 2010

Waiting on Wednesday...

I have neglected my little blog for far too long. There is too much going on in my life right now but I am determined not to let that stop me posting.
I don't normally do the Wednesday meme simply because I read so many e-books that I generally don't have anything I am waiting on. But since it is coming up to Christmas I am now waiting on a bunch of things, mostly kids books but hell they count too!

First for my daughter...


 


She has some other books too, but only these that I am waiting on.

Then for my son...

 This is one that he borrowed from the library and loved so I figured it was a safe bet under the Christmas tree.

I saw this one in our local book store and it looked really fun (although a bit over priced at the shop, so I ordered online)
 Both of my kids LOVE this show! So I expect lots of messy fun times with this one.
 











There are 4 of these underpants books as far as I can tell, the first two are in the boot of my car waiting to be wrapped (it's my only hiding place from the kids.)

And just for me...

 I don't know if I should read it or create a shrine for it. I think I will just have to make sure the cover is plastic covered for fear of any drooling that might happen near it.
It's just a very pretty looking book :P










other things I am waiting on are replacement personalised Christmas baubles for the ones my dogs ate, and my NuSkin Vitality vitamins (not yet officially on the market, but come Jan-Feb I reckon everyone should at least try them! They do wonders for your energy levels.)

I will play around with my blog format tomorrow and try to get some new stuff up and posted over the next couple of days. Until then, happy blogging bloggers!

Happy Blog Hop Friday!

This is my first Friday blog hop where I get to show off my new blog!

So much has been happening lately I have neglected my blog a bit, only having time on Fridays to join in the blog hops.
There are some major changes happening in my life which will hopefully have my blog black on track and getting at least a review a week up. I have some planned for December so please keep an eye out. I may even do a giveaway for Christmas so keep an eye out on my giveaway page.
Since I don't have a review I will do something a little unrelated just because I am so happy with how life is turning at the moment I need to show it off a little :)

My week so far....
I waited for 3 days for my new dining table to be delivered, the couriers kept calling to say it would come on certain days then it wouldn't. Very annoying but once it finally got here my kids were so delighted that my son and I picked out place mats and he set the table once we came home (he is 5 and I didn't even know he knew how to set a table.)
The significance of the dining table is that we haven't had one that we sat at for dinner since my son was born. Now that he is heading off to school next year I want us to all sit and eat together properly which seems to be working well so far.

I got myself a new job! I work in a high stress environment at the moment so I have applied for a million and one things (I would have been happy to scrub dishes at this point, just to lower my stress levels) So in early December I will be working for Maccas! I know it may sound strange to be excited by that, but it's a job where I don't have to deal with as much crap as I do now and I can be trained to move up in the food chain without it taking over my entire life like me current job has. My son has already asked if he can come to work with me though, and my husband says he wants free food :/ I think I will just be banning Maccas food all together once I work there.

Other than that we are getting into the spirit of Christmas and have been making a glittery mess all over the place. We have also invested in new Christmas decorations this year.

That's enough of my rambling, on to the blog hop madness that is Fridays!








Parajunkee hosts the ever popular Follow My Book Blog Friday. Her featured blogger this week is Ginger at GReads
The question of the week is How long have you been book blogging?

I would say around 5-6 months. So I am not as established as most but I keep plugging away and trying to get this blog of mine going.


Book Blogger Hop

Crazy For Books hosts the one and only weekend long book blog hop. The question of the week over that way is
Since Thanksgiving is coming up next week, let's use this week's Hop to share what we are most thankful for and what our holiday traditions are!

I am an Aussie, so don't follow any traditions due to not celebrating Thanksgiving. But I am always thankful for good friends, family and being able to spend time with both.


Happy blog hop bloggers!

A massive thank you!

As some of you may have noticed my blog has had a pretty big face lift over the last 24 hours.

I am totally rapt with how it has turned out and wanted to give a big thank you to Danny from Dreamy Blog Designs!
She has done an amazing job and I can't praise her enough for her efforts in getting my blog to the state that I wanted it.

So once again a huge thanks!

Happy Blog Hop Friday!

TGIF!
Once again it's stalking *ahem*, I mean following time.

If you want to join the follow on fun you need to visit;







Parajunkee hosts the ever popular Follow My Book Blog Friday. Her featured blogger this week is Jackie at Insane Hussein
The question of the week is What us your usual monthly book budget??

HA! That's too funny. I have no budget, although at the moment I am on a book buying ban (self imposed) due to my TBR pile being so high (that is in the physical sense, I fear it may avalanche on one of the children :P)
I normally buy a book a week. Nothing too exxy mostly only things that are under $15 unless it's a new release that I absolutely can't live without.


Book Blogger Hop

Crazy For Books hosts the one and only weekend long book blog hop. The question of the week over that way is If you find a book that looks interesting but is part of a series, do you always start with the first title?

Absolutely yes! There is nothing worse than walking in mid conversation and I feel the same way about books. I would rather be there from the beginning.

Happy blog hop bloggers!

Check it out Tuesday

I propose a new kind of book blog hop.
I am all for pimping myself out and jumping on the book blog hops, I wont stop doing it either. I just think it would be nice if we had a hop where you could recommend other peoples blogs.

So the rules of this hop are as follows:
Recommend one blog and add them to the linky list.
Go check out the the blogs that were recommended.
That's it get hoppin!

I'll even go first and recommend you go visit Jessica Rabbit (although be warned her blog is for 18 or over)

Weekend Question



Liz at Cleverly Inked hosts a weekend question for us all to answer each week. It's always book related for all the book obsessed bloggers like me.

This weeks question is;
Do you prefer a male or female protagonist?

I personally don't mind. I actually love getting into the head of a male protagonist so long as it is written well. I obviously find it easier to relate to a female though.
When writing I always write as a female because I have yet to master writing a male lead.

So what's your preference?

November 5, 2010

Hippity Hoppity Hop!

It's that time of the week again and I am ready to bounce around the internet finding new book blogs to stalk *ahem* follow.

If you want to join the follow on fun you need to visit two blogs;





Parajunkee hosts the ever popular Follow My Book Blog Friday. Her featured blogger this week is Monica at Bibliophilic Book Blog who I am pleased to say I was already following :)
The question of the week is Who are your favourite authors??
I could be here all night trying to make lists, but I will say the top three are Richelle Mead, J R Ward and Claudia Gray.

Book Blogger Hop

Crazy For Books hosts the one and only weekend long book blog hop. The question of the week over that way is What are your feelings on losing followers? Have you ever stopped following a blog?

I do admit that when I first figured out the whole following thing I followed a few blogs that I really wasn't that interested in so I culled a few. I didn't feel too bad though because they were not following me and they had many many many followers. 
I have had one person stop following me. It was a really odd guy who got pissed off when I didn't follow back or accept a Facebook friend invite straight away. He found my personal FB account not the one I use for my blog so I was actually glad he unfollowed me (hmmm is unfollowed a word?)
At the end of the day, I appreciate people taking the time to read my blog and follow on but I wont be offended if people do drop off the list because I will assume they have their reasons for doing so.

Happy blog hop bloggers!

Okay, so here is the situation. I have managed to obtain an extra copy of Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick, I haven't even read the copy I have yet so I really have no need for two. If you want to read the synopsis then click the pic above.

So this is an instant giveaway which means I have no date for you to enter by, it is purely first one to comment gets the book!

The conditions... I will post to people internationally, BUT I will do it the cheapest way possible which means the post time will probably take up to a month.

Weekend Question

Weekend Question is hosted by Liz at Cleverly Inked. I thought I would give it a whirl this week as I have enjoyed seeing some other posts from this weekly meme.

Do you judge a book by it's cover? If so which is your favorite?

I am terribly judgmental. I understand why publishers think book covers are so important, I will skim right by book if the cover doesn't catch my attention.
 
One cover that has caught my attention this weekend is 

I'm not afraid to say I think this cover is totally hot! I would buy this book just to stare at it while I had something tangible to hold at the time. I have tried to read a Gene Showalter book previously without much inclination to continue reading but this cover alone makes me want to give her another chance.

Light speed reviews

I totally stole this concept from Bella over at the (for now discontinued) blog Obsessed. Her 70 word reviews are a crack up so I am having a go at it myself.
This week I am revisiting old friends and doing 50 word reviews of 3 Gregory Maguire books which I found in a box the other day (not enough shelf space in my house.)

So here we go...




Wicked -
This book is apparently hated by the masses. Everyone loves the musical but I am the only one on the planet who fell in love with the book!
It’s been years since I read it, but I still feel overwhelming compassion towards Elphaba every time I think of this book.




 Confessions of an Ugly Step Sister -
While I didn’t feel as drawn to this story as I did Wicked (I do have a minor obsession with anything Oz) the characters were probably better developed throughout this book. Not a must read, but readable all the same if your inclined to the tale of Cinderella.


Mirror Mirror -
Snow White? Snow White? Where for art thou Snow White? This was particularly hard to read. Characters seemed to lack motivation in their actions and this retelling didn’t keep me interested the way the other two did.You wont find me snuggling with this one in bed any time soon.







Phhhew, that was harder than it looks. Until next time... Happy reading bloggers!

Happy Blog Hop Friday!

Now for the blog hops!
My fave part of Fridays is the book blog hops. My TBR pile is huge because of them and my husband may well not fit in our bed anymore if I continue to hop around like I do. But alas I will continue to explore the realm of book blogs and pick up new books as I go.

This week's question is:
If you have, or would have a daughter, what book would you want your daughter to read?
I have no idea! At the moment I just encourage her to read anything she likes. She is only 20 months old so she loves the Little Princess books. 
I think and easier question would be what wouldn't I want her to read... There are plenty of titles I could add to that list!

October Obsessions Give Away Week 4

Alrighty, the last 3 weeks have seen some of my favorite books sent out to fellow bloggers in the hopes that they love them as much as I do and this week wont be any different.

In the last week of my October Obsessions give away I want to share what was probably my first real look at the more adult style of paranormal books. I have always read classics and YA stuff but J R Ward had me a bit flustered after reading the first of her Black Dagger Brotherhood Series of books.
This week I am giving one lucky person the box set which holds the first 6 books of the Black Dagger Brotherhood Series by J R Ward.

The story of Wrath and Beth
The story of Rhage and Mary

The story of Zsadist and Bella
The story of Butch and Marissa


The story of Vishous and Jane
The story of Phury and Cormia

J R Ward does an fantastic job of introducing us to these amazingly strong, fearless, reckless brotherhood vampire males in each of her books. With each book one of the brothers are taken apart piece by piece and then built back up again as they find their bonded mates.
In my opinion these books tread a fine line between between romance, urban fantasy and even erotic fiction. 

Why you should read this series:
There is never a dull moment. The perspective frequently changes. which would normally do my head in, but Ward does it seamlessly and makes it work.
The brothers are totally hot! No, I haven't reverted to my teen self, they really are hot. Each and every one of them!
I have seen people say that J R Ward writes crack... well it's true. I was hooked from the first book and read right through the series up to book 7 in one go.

Reasons not to read:
The only one I can think of is the idea of these uber cool characters all listening to hip-hop and rap music. Maybe Ward was trying to appeal to a young (early 20's) audience, or who knows she could totally be into hard core rap music? Either way, this was the one thing that I didn't like about it.

How many stars would I give these books? 
Good question, I wont lie, I would not give all of them a 5 star rating. I have my favorite (Love Awakened) and I do have one that I was loving until the end of the book (Lover Unbound) but as an overall rating for the series of books I would give them 5/5. The series as a whole is great. I can't recommend it enough.


Give away details:

For commenting on this post you will receive 1 entry
If you put my grab button on your blog you will get 2 additional entries.
So you can get 3 entries in total.

This is open internationally.
I will be ordering the books for the winner, so can only deliver to countries that Bookdepository or Amazon ship to.

So now that is all out of the way please enter away!!

P.S. Remember that if you are seeing this post from my main page the link to comment is at the top under the title of the post.

October Obsessions Give Away Week 3

This weeks give away has one upped last weeks by a book. This week I want to give one lucky reader all three books in Claudia Gray's Evernight Series!



By: Claudia Gray
Pages: 336, 329 and 352
Published: 2009-2010
Publisher: Harper Collins Publishers Inc

As per my last give away I will not be posting the synopsis for every book right here. It will just make the post miles longer than necessary. If you click on the link in the titles it will take you to the right place to read them all. I am also refusing to give away ANY spoilers to these books. Which makes reviewing them all little tedious because the whole point of the story comes out about half way into the first book. So bare with my rushed generalized review and please just believe me when I say you NEED to read these books!

The Evernight Series is aimed at young adults. It has the usual teen outcast and angst with a twist, which I'm not going to tell you about, so ner.
Our main character Bianca is hauled off to boarding school. Not because she is a bad kid, but because her parents take teaching jobs there. Bianca is none too impressed with this but really it's for her own good (still not telling you why though :P)
She attempts to run away on her first day of school. It's a really lame attempt, but the point is she meets a certain young chap on her little travels... Lucas. Lucas warns her to stay away from him, you know, all of that "I'm bad for you" stuff that normally makes teenage girls just swoon even more. 
Though Bianca is an outcast (not cool enough for the well traveled rich kids but not uncool enough for the social rejects) she does manage to find a couple of stragglers to call friends. Upon hearing about Lucas they warn Bianca to stay away from him too (gee isn't that like shoving a horses head in water to make it drink?)
But little does everyone know, there are secrets that will actually bring them together anyway. Plus teen lust kinda over takes most opinions on people.

Reasons to read this book...Because I said so!

What? Not a vaild enough reason for you?
Fine, read it because although this is a young adult novel it doesn't center it's entire time line around the school structure. The high school setting feels more incedental that integral.

Gray has some fresh new takes on an old genre. She manages to entwine her ideas with old ideas nicely.

The teenagers in the novel don't seem to be horny little angst dwellers like most YA fiction. There is a bit of the expected lust and woe is me, but it doesn't make me wince or give me stabbing pains in my head due to me wanting to beat sense into the characters.

So there you have it, my review that doesn't seem like much of a review because I so don't want to give anything away before you have read the book.

Give away details:

For commenting on this post you will recieve 1 entry
If you put my grab button on your blog you will get 2 additional entries.
So you can get 3 entries in total.

This is open internationally. Although there are restrictions.
This week I will be ordering the books from Amazon for the overseas readers. Book Depository does not have Hourglass in stock so I won't be ordering with them.
For any Aussie readers I can order from Booktopia.
As per last week, I am more than happy to purchase a gift card on Amazon so that you can have the books on Kindle instead if you so choose.

So now that is all out of the way please enter away!!

P.S. Remember that if you are seeing this post from my main page the link to comment is at the top under the title of the post.


Happy Blog Hop Friday!

Once again it is time from the Friday book blog hops, my absolute favorite time of the week I must say.

Sorry about that guys 

Chazz 

This is the third time I have tried to post this now, so here goes...

Starting today we are taking entries for the second week of my give away. I am a bit early as it is Thursday night here, but I was so excited I just couldn't wait! I will announce the winner of week one once I am home from work tomorrow (yes you still have about 18 hours to enter!)

So this week I will be giving away 




  
By Richelle Mead
Published in Aug 2008 & 2009
Publisher: Zebra
 Paperback Pages: 374 & 384
ISBN 13: 9781420100969 
ISBN 10: 1420100963 
ISBN 13: 9781420100976
ISBN 10: 1420100971

 Because this is a series I won't post the synopsis for each because I feel like reading the synopsis for the second book if you haven't read the first actually spoils it a little. I will just give a brief review of my reaction to the books instead. If you want to read the synopsis you can click in the link above.

After finishing the 4th Vampire Academy book I was lost. No idea what to read or where to turn. I went to the House of Night series and it just wasn't the same. I needed more VA but where could I get it? Light bulb moment hit... Maybe I could see if Richelle Mead had written any other books... Yeah I know, pretty stupid revelation really. So I looked her up and found she indeed had 2 other series of books. I was a bit dubious about them. There were no vampires so I wasn't sure they would fulfill my reading needs. 
The Succubus series looked like a goer until for some reason I couldn't get a preview on my Kindle app. I really had no interest in the Dark Swan series at all but was desperate and Kindle was allowing me a preivew so I loaded it up and started to read.

BOY OH BOY was my face red! Not only did it fulfill my reading wants and desires, it exceeded them. I thought there were some steamy scenes in VA but Storm Born kicked those scenes arses. I read the preview in record time and purchased the book as soon as the app gave me that "Want to see more?" message. I think the total time to read this one was about 2 days. I just couldn't stop reading.

Eugenie Markham is like Buffy without the vampires and I imagine her to be tougher (after all Eugenie doesn't have side kicks.) She does have some allies who know who she is, I particularly love the "receptionist" who has never actually met Eugenie but knows what she needs when she needs it anyway. 

There is the typical Mead love triangle as per her other books. I did enjoy this one much more than the others I must say. I usually roll my eyes a bit when there is 2 guys to pick but with this one I found myself begging Eugenie to pick the other guy. 

I don't want to give anything away, but I will say my favorite thing in any book is when you have characters who you know should just be black and white bad, there shouldn't be any gray area. You know who is good and who isn't. But, and this is a big but, you find the gray area and fall in love (or lust) with them anyway. The character I am talking about is Dorian, if you haven't read the book, it will be worth reading just for him. I think if he were real I could very well be his groupie jumping up and down in front of him saying "Pick me! Pick me!" or maybe I would just slap Eugenie out of the way and jump him myself *sigh*, oh to dream.

All in all I give this book 5/5 I loved it, I still love it, and I would kick my husband out of our bed to make room for the book if the three of us wouldn't fit together (my poor husband is lucky books are so compact)

Anyway, on to the give away finer details...

You need to post a comment on this post to enter. 
I honestly can't be bothered with the whole adding up points thing (tried it last week and seemed to make this very uneven) so I will give each person who comments on this post one entry.
If you choose to do a post or grab my button I will give you two additional entries. But you must post the links in your comment here. My grab button is to the right ---->
So you can have 3 entries in total. Remember to comment on this post go to the top of this post for the comment link.

If you entered last week you have to re-enter on this post for this week.

If books depository delivers to you you are eligible to enter, this is an international give away.
If you want instant satisfaction, I will be happy to send it to you on Kindle as another option.

Entries for this one close next Friday on the 15th. I will post when it is closed as I am in Australia so time zones can get a little confusing.

If you want to know what is happening for next week click here.

Not wanting to make this post too many miles longer, don't forget it is nearly time for the Friday book blog hops!
I will make my official posts on them after work tomorrow, but here are the buttons to go check out the host blogs
