Blogger Interview Saturday: Epic Chocolate Fantasy

From now on Blogger Interview Saturday will have it’s own banner!

Review: Ethan (Brightest Kind of Darkness #0.5) by P.T. Michelle

Ethan (Brightest Kind of Darkness #0.5) by P.T. Michelle I got a copy for review from the author Blurb from Goodreads: Ethan Harris never thought monsters and darkness would consume his daily thoughts, but every night the same visions repeat in his dreams. He’s careful to project a semblance of normalcy, keeping the suffocating darkness locked inside. As much as he wishes he could focus on girls, sports, and cars like other seventeen-year-olds; nothing distracts him from his own demons or shines through. Until Nara Collins crosses his path. The blonde fascinates and intrigues him, giving him a measure of […]

Cover Reveal: Fire Country (Country series #1) by David Estes

I am so excited to be part of the cover reveal for David Estes newest book. I am really thankful that I already got the chance to read this book, so I will also share my review with you. Here is the cover for Fire Country: I think the cover really fits the story and it is really stunning! I like the fact that even though there is a cover model on the cover we don’t get to see her face. The background really looks awesome and it fits my impression of how the world looks perfectly. A bit more […]

Blog Hop: Girly Book Blog Hop Locations

I am so excited to be part of this blog hop! The blog hop is hosted by Libby Mercer. This blog hop is a bit different than what I normally participate in.

The different locations book take you and well everyone who participates writes a post about that subject. Where am I going to blog about?I am not going to choose one book or place to […]

Review: Daughter of Smoke and Bone (Daughter of Smoke and Bone #1) by Laini Taylor

Daughter of Smoke and Bone (Daughter of Smoke and Bone #1) by Laini Taylor I got this book from Kay @K-Books for my birthday Blurb from Goodreads: “Errand requiring immediate attention. Come. The note was on vellum, pierced by the talons of the almost-crow that delivered it. Karou read the message. ‘He never says please’, she sighed, but she gathered up her things. When Brimstone called, she always came.” In general, Karou has managed to keep her two lives in balance. On the one hand, she’s a seventeen-year-old art student in Prague; on the other, errand-girl to a monstrous creature […]

About Me # 2: Writing Reviews

Those of you who follow me for some time already, probably know a bit about how I write my reviews. In this post I’ll explain how and why I write my reviews. I also explain how I started writing reviews. Why and how I started writing reviewsI wrote my first reviews on a dutch site where you can buy books and write reviews of them, called bol.com. These reviews were just a few sentences of what I thought about the book. I thought it was nice to help other people decide whether this was a book for them or not. […]
