Liebster Award Nomination

I got nominated for an award! This is the first time my blog got nominated. I got nominated by Orisi from the blog Orisi’s blah blah blah. So I already made the draft for this post, but never got around to finishing it, until I got nominated a second time by Julie from JA Belfields blog. So I am going to answer both of their series questions. The Liebster blog award is an award for blogs with fewer than 200 followers. It’s a way of showcasing different blogs and more importantly discover new ones! And I totally copied this description […]

Review: Caged (Holloway Pack #3) by JA Belfield

Caged (Holloway Pack #3) by JA Belfield I got an ARC in exchange for an honest review Blurb from Goodreads: If the meek can become deadly, the strongest can be weak. For Ethan Holloway, his mission to find a missing werewolf should be simple. Crack a few heads, bust a few chops and the solution always reveals itself. Always. Not this time. Ethan’s reputation precedes him, and because it does, someone is ready. Waiting. Unbeknownst to Ethan, he’s about to go down. Hard. Against a foe he never suspected and in a world he never imagined could be real. What […]

Review: Phoenix Watching (Camp Myth #1) by Chris Lewis Carter

Phoenix Watching (Camp Myth #1) by Chris Lewis Carter I got a copy in exchange for an honest review Blurb from Goodreads: Welcome to Camp Myth, the only summer camp built exclusively for young mythological creatures. Forget canoe rides and knot tying lessons – these kids are more likely to fish for a Kraken, or learn the proper way to train a Chimera! Join Felix, a rebellious Fae forced to attend camp as punishment for his obsession with humans; Argee, the first (and only) nerdy Cyclops; and Moxie, a Kitsune who would rather smart-mouth than shape-shift. Can these three mythic […]

About Me: Pre-orders

Today I want to talk about pre-orders. I love pre-ordering books, so at any time I usually have between 5-10 books on pre-order. I only pre-order paperbacks, because pre-ordering e-books usually require a credit card, which I don’t have. And because I buy almost all my paperbacks on The Bookdepository, that’s also the place where I place all my pre-orders. Why do I pre-order books? I think part of the reason why I pre-order books is, because it’s easy. I am now thinking about a book that isn’t releashed, decide I want it, I pre-order it and then I don’t […]
