Freak of Nature (IFICS #1) by Julia Crane - Blog Stop + Giveaway

So I rarely do a blog tour for many reasons. Mostly because I don't like to be tied down to a book and made to feel like I absolutely have to read it by a certain time. One thing I really love about blogging is that I get to set my own pace and work on my own schedule. When I read about Freak of Nature, I decided to take a chance and read the book for the tour and I'm really glad I did.

Updates from a busy blogger

As you've probably noticed, I've been a little M.I.A. recently. The reason being that there is a lot going on in my personal and professional life at the moment. Of course all of the goings on are good and exciting, but super, crazy, fantastically and unimaginably busy. After some time to reflect, I've decided to officially take some time off of blogging. Not indefinitely, but a little hiatus until I can get things straightened out.

Nightshade (Nightshade, #1) by Andrea Cremer - Review

I've been reading a lot of contemporary romances lately. I think that's mostly because I have been in what feels like controlled chaos at work and have had to travel and work late hours. I feel like I want to pull my hair out with stress for the past few weeks. Stressful ranting aside, it took me a long time to get through Nightshade amid my work schedule and recent addiction to romance, but I'm so happy I read it. Nightshade pulled me head first back into the world of YA fiction and I'm excited for all of the awesome books coming out this year.

Breathe (Sea Breeze, #1) by Abbi Glines - Reivew

I was just thinking about how hard it is for me to write New Adult book sometimes reviews. I’m very rarely blown out of the water, but for the most part enjoy even the books that weren’t very well written. I’m a sucker for a good romance and so of course, I ended up really loving Breathe’s story. It was different, the concept was unique and the characters were easy to fall for.

Waiting on Wednesday (15): Red by Alison Cherry

 

Happy Wednesday... thank god we're almost to Friday. It's been one of those weeks! As most of you know, this weekly meme is hosted by Breaking the Spine to showcase those books that aren't released yet and you can't wait to get your hands on!

The Perfect Game (The Perfect Game, #1) by J. Sterling - Reveiw

I read The Perfect Game on a whim. It was a football Sunday and I didn’t want to sit and pretend that I was interested in what was going on, so I boycotted and bought myself a book. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I really enjoyed The Perfect Game!

Everbound (Everneath, #2) by Brodi Ashton - Review

I have been waiting for this book ever since I read Everneath last year. I’m a huge fan of Greek myth retellings, especially the Persephone myth. I’ve been on a roll lately having just finished The Goddess Inheritance and I’m itching to start Josephine Angelini’s Dreamless soon as well. While it seemed like an endless wait, it was well worth it for Everbound.
