May Recap




Saving London by: Taylor Dawn





















Run (NOLA Zombie #1) by: Gillian Zane























You'll Be Thinking of Me by: Densie Webb























Book of the Month:




Zombies are on the loose in New Orleans and of all the End of the World scenarios, Alexis Winter wasn’t prepared for this one. But, an apocalypse is an apocalypse and she should have this covered. She has been “prepping” for the last three years. The problem is location and timing. She’s stuck downtown and she has to get to her house on the outskirts of the city so she can get her supplies and bug-in (for the “non-preppers” this means hole up and stay safe).

Agreeing to work on a Saturday is now coming back to bite her on the ass big time. Hopefully, it won’t be a literal bite by the walking dead.

Luck favors the prepared, and as luck would have it, it comes in the form of the ridiculously hot Blake Miller. Former military man, current mercenary, Blake Miller, the man with the plan, his goal: steal a boat and trek up the Mississippi until they find safety. Alexis thinks this is a great plan and she decides to team up with Blake. The two team up in unexpected ways as they find they can’t keep their hands off of each other even when the world is falling down around them.

Can Alexis and Blake survive the end of the world, and if they do make it through the night, find a place that is safe and secure? Can their newfound attraction lead them down the road to love or heartbreak?

Zombies, sex, romance and carnage…you can’t get any better than this.

We are Watching by: M. Stephen Stewart
The 13th: Destiny Awaits by: Ela Lond

April Recap





This month it has been a little difficult for me to get much reading done. Life threw me a curve ball and bunch of stuff has had to take up the majority of my time. Three books is probably an all time low for me and that bums me out because I love the different fantasy lands I get to visit through out my reading. So for the month of May, with things getting somewhat better, I promise to try harder to bring you more book reviews.

Shiver by: Maggie Stiefvater 














Linger by: Maggie Stiefvater













Dare to Dream by: Carys Jones















Book of the Month:

 


" The world was going to end. Of that, Maggie Trafford was certain."

Fourteen year old Maggie Trafford leads a normal life. Well, as normal as being crammed in a three-bedroom house with four siblings and a single parent, can be, anyway. But despite being somewhat ignored at home, Maggie excels, earning top grades, a best friend who would do anything for her, and stole looks from a boy in Maths.

It's not until the dreams start that Maggie realizes ''normal'' is the least of her problems. Every night, she lives the same nightmare-red lightning, shattered glass, destruction. But nightmares are just that, right? No one believes her when she says it's an omen. At least, not until the mysterious pillars of Stonehenge start falling.

No longer alone in her fear, Maggie and the world watch with bated breath as one after another, the historic stones tumble, like a clock  counting down. But only Maggie knows what it means: when the last stone falls, destruction will reign. And when the world ends, there's only one option left-survive. 

Horrifying and raw, Dare to Dream is equal parts tragedy and hope, detailing the aftermath of apocalyptic catastrophe, the quest for survival, and the importance of belief.

March Book Recap




I wasn't able to read as many books as I would have liked this month. Life just kind of got in the way, between coaching my son's basketball games, birthdays, cooking and house cleaning (three guys in the house equals tons of messes), I didn't really have a lot of time for my stuff. I'm hoping that changes this month and I get a little bit more me time.
