It is Monday, whatcha Reading? (2)

Solstice by P.J. Hoover was recently released and I just ordered my copy for my Kindle app. I have a massive car ride ahead of me later this week and I am loading my devices up for the night ride.
The more that I have been hearing about this book, the more I am anticipating reading it. The premise of the book is right up my I Heart Dystopian FanGirl alley and the characters are described so richly that I feel I am in their world too from the first chapters that I have read online.

So if you are looking for a fantastic e-read, snap Solstice while it is in sale. For $2.99, less than a mocha you can read something that is going to be utterly amazing.

BLURB:

My world is dying. Global warming will kill every living thing on Earth. I endure the endless summer, and do what I can to help. Until one day…

I open a box, and everything changes.

I discover a world of mythology parallel to my own. A world where gods battle for control, and monsters feed in the rivers of the Underworld. This dark world pulls me in and tells me I belong.

I meet Shayne, who keeps secrets from me. And Reese, who makes me feel alive. But I almost lose my best friend and my life. I don't want to leave this new world. But can I choose the life I want, without sacrificing the people I love?

SOLSTICE is P.J. Hoover’s debut YA novel and is the first front-list novel to be independently published by an Andrea Brown Literary Agency author.



Here is also their great trailer:

Forever


I have to say it: I love the wolves. When Shiver was released it captivated me as a reader since it brought in a whole new perspective in so far as the saga of shifters go. Linger gave me tears and Forever gives me hope and apprehension.
I enjoyed the changing POV in the story and the characters sucked me into their existence. So I love the trailer that came out for the book by Maggie, it ttoally feels like the book to me, and can you see all of those lovely spines from the series around the world in the background! That is some extra special sauce here for me.

Friday Video

My husband said, " This is true. Put some action in your chick flicks and I may be more prone to watch them."
This was while I was cracking up and chocking on my coffee this morning.
Happy Friday everyone!

Blood Bound Covers Released

Blood Bound
Rachel Vincent
Expected publication: August 23rd 2011 by Mira

Rachel Vincent just put up the cover flats of her soon to be released novel Blood Bound and they look awesome.

Personally I heart the UK cover because the cover and the sprawling looks is fantastic and I love the art on the spine also. But what do you think? I know I cannot wait for this release. The Shifter series left me wanting more Vincent.

US COVER UK COVER


Here is the blurb:
Olivia Warren owes her friend Anne a favor. Anne needs someone found and brought to a very quick, private justice.

The catch? Olivia must work with Cam Caballero to complete this favor. The problem? Cam is Olivia's ex—the man prophesied to either kill her or die by her hand. It's a tense reunion, at best.

As Olivia and Cam chase their target through public streets, private lives, and a dangerous criminal underworld, everything they thought they knew comes into question. In the end, they can only be sure of three things…

"No one can be trusted.

Everyone’s lying.

And someone’s going to pay."
