Lack of posts. Again.

Guys, I'm sorry! Things are crazy here, with my tutoring classes and my tests, so I don't have enough time to post any review. I'll try to fix it until the end of this week! I promise!


Thanks for your patience! :D

My Book Boyfriend (7)

Well, the blog can't stop, even if my cute design isn't here because of photobucket maintence. I'm going to do a backup when I get my images back. My Book Boyfriend is hosted by The Unread Reader, in which we show to our readers, characters that we're drooling for! This week, I'll talk about my love of the week:

Zsadist

• Books that he's in: All the books in Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R Ward

• Appearance: 
As I think about him, I picture his face and the scar that intersects it. I see his glossy all-black eyes. His skull trimmed hair. His pierced nipples. The tattooed blood slave bands around his throat and wrists... I can almost feel the anger and the erotic threat he throws off... God, it’s as if he’s known hell on earth and carries the place around with him.
• Zsadist is the most scarier brother.
• He was a blood slave.

• He's Phury's twin brother.
• He's mated with Bella
• He has a little daughter, named Nalla.  
• Why he's my book Boyfriend?  Well, he can be scary, but he's a sweet guy deep inside. When he's isn't fighting of course. And he's a great alpha male! hohoho Ok, I've to stop to swoon over the Brotherhood.
• Who is my perfect Zsadist: Wentworth Miller. He's just like Z! Of course without the scars or the pierced nipples... XD

• Scene that made me swoon:

What a flipping nightmare. Technically the Brotherhood should be running his ass out of town. Instead Z was looking to mate into the guy's family. God, did Bella even know what her brother was? And not just the drug-dealer part…

Z glanced at her.Probably not , his instincts told him. On both accounts.

"Rehvenge, this is… Zsadist," she said.

Z looked at the male again. The pair of deep purples staring back at him were unwavering, but beneath the calm there was a flicker of the same kind of holy hell that Z was feeling.Man … exactly how was all this going to play out?

"Rehv?" Bella murmured. "Um… Zsadist?"

The Reverend smiled coolly. "So, are you going to mate my sister now that you've knocked her up? Or is this just a social call?"

The two females let out gasps, and Zsadist felt his eyes flash black. As he pointedly drew Bella to his side, he itched to bare his fangs. He was going to do his best not to embarrass anyone, but if flyboy with the mouth peeled off any more one-liners like that, Z was going to drag Bella's brother outside and beat an apology out of him for upsetting the ladies.

He was damn proud of himself when he only hissed a little. "Yeah, I am going to mate her. You drop the tough act, civilian, and we might invite you to the ceremony. Otherwise you're off the list."

The Reverend's eyes flared. But then he abruptly laughed. "Easy, there, brother. Just want to make sure my sister is taken care of."

The male put his hand out. Zsadist met the big palm halfway.

"That's brother-in-law, to you. And she will be, don't you worry about that."

So who's your book boyfriend this week? :)

P.S: Yeah, next week we won't have a Brother in MMB. I've to stop with them XDDD

Lack of posts

Hey guys!


Sorry for not posting anything for almost 2 weeks, but I got a week filled with tests, and I didn't have much time to log in the blog and write something decent. I hope that until the end of the month I can put some reviews and memes up, to apologize for a time without nothing here XD


Sorry again! >_<'

Review: Bright Young Things (Bright Young Things #1) by Anna Godbersen

The year is 1929. New York is ruled by the Bright Young Things: flappers and socialites seeking thrills and chasing dreams in the anything-goes era of the Roaring Twenties.

Letty Larkspur and Cordelia Grey escaped their small Midwestern town for New York's glittering metropolis. All Letty wants is to see her name in lights, but she quickly discovers Manhattan is filled with pretty girls who will do anything to be a star…

Cordelia is searching for the father she's never known, a man as infamous for his wild parties as he is for his shadowy schemes. Overnight, she enters a world more thrilling and glamorous than she ever could have imagined—and more dangerous. It's a life anyone would kill for . . . and someone will.

The only person Cordelia can trust is Astrid Donal, a flapper who seems to have it all: money, looks, and the love of Cordelia's brother, Charlie. But Astrid's perfect veneer hides a score of family secrets.

Across the vast lawns of Long Island, in the illicit speakeasies of Manhattan, and on the blindingly lit stages of Broadway, the three girls' fortunes will rise and fall—together and apart. From the New York Times bestselling author of The Luxe comes an epic new series set in the dizzying last summer of the Jazz Age. (From Goodreads)

I never read The Luxe series, what I still regret until today, because the story seems to be amazing (and I read some spoilers on Amazon) and the covers are gorgeous, so when I got Bright Young Things on my hands, I couldn't wait to start. And the worst day was when it was over. 
On the first pages the prologue already say to us, how to story is going to finish: Some are going to be happy. Some are going to be sad. And some are going to be dead.
The story starts with Cordelia and Letty, two country girls on the day of Cordelia's unplanned wedding. They don't want to live in that small town of the whole lives, doing the same things every day. They want to go to the big city, to achieve their own dreams. Cordelia wants to find the father that she never knew, because of the dead of her mother and Letty wants to be a super star, just like her mother could be, if she didn't give up on everything to marry her father. They plan to run away, even if that means to leave Cordelia's recent husband behind. And they do. On the night train, they go to London to never look back.
In the book we now about Cordelia, Letty and Astrid's fears, days and most important: boys. Everything is around boys, but like in the other books of Anna Godbersen, we don't know since the the first moment who is going to end up with who, because we have many plot twists, so we always have new surprises along the way. And of course, it's impossible don't identify with some characters along the way. You feel that could be you in their skins and doing the same things that they are doing. I'm excited for the second book of this series that is going to be released in September 20th and it's going to be called Beautiful Days. So to end this review, I'll show you a little piece of the prologue:

I can t remember very many now—although there are three, from that last incandescent summer, whom I resist forgetting. They were all marching toward their own secret fates, and long before the next decade

rolled around, each would escape in her own way—one would be famous, one would be married, and one would be dead.

That is what I want to tell you about: the girls with their short skirts and bright eyes and big-city dreams.

The girls of 1929.

So, in you do you bet? Who is going to be married? Who is going to be famous? And who is going to be dead?

In the end, I give to this book:

I LOVED this book!

My Book Boyfriend (6)

This week, despise all the things that I've to study for my next week's tests, I'm happy. Yesterday (March 29th) was the release of Lover Unleashed, the 9th book of Black Dagger Brotherhood, by J.R Ward and the day before (March 28th), Make It Or Break It, one of my favorite shows, was aired again, with new episodes! So, yes, this is a great week! And since yesterday was Lover Unleashed release, why not do a MBB for BDB? 

My Book Boyfriend is hosted by The Unread Reader, in which we show to our readers, characters that we're drooling for! This week, I'll talk about my love of the week:

Rhage

• Books that he's in: All the books of Black Dagger Brotherhood
• Appearance:

"Rhage and I meet a week later in brotherhood’s mansion. And not surprisingly, it’s in the kitchen. When Fritz brings me to him, Rhage is over the stove, cooking himself French toast. Well, a whole loaf of French toast. He’s wearing a black muscle shirt and a worn pair of Levi’s that are frayed at the waist, cuffs, and back pockets. I stare. His physical beauty is so... compelling, I measure it once and then again and again. The striking planes and angles of his face, the utter perfection of his big body, those astounding blue/green eyes... it’s all an anomaly, as unnatural a combination as that which equates to true ugliness." (from J.R Ward's site)

• Rhage is considered the most beautiful of the Brotherhood.
• He's called Hollywood by his friends.
• Despite his appearance, he's a lethal warrior.
• He's mated with Mary, a imortal human.
• He can transform in a dragon, because of a curse that Scribe Virgin put on him. When he's in this form he destroy everything in his way, except Mary.  
• Why he's my Book Boyfriend: Probably you don't want to date Rhage, but admit to yourself, at the least you want to sleep with him. And he's a good guy, when he isn't in a bad mood.
• My perfect Rhage: Jason Lewis. I need to explain? XD
• Scene that made me swoon:

"Your name?"

"Mary. She named me after the Virgin Mary."

Rhage's breath caught. And then he laughed softly.

"What's so funny?"

His eyes were a bright, shining teal blue. "Just that V… well, Vishous is never wrong. Oh, Mary, my beautiful virgin, will you let me love you for as long as I live? And when I go unto the Fade, will you come with me?"

"Yes." She stroked his cheek. "But does it bother you that I can't have your children?"

"Not in the slightest. I have you, that's all that matters."

"You know," she murmured, "there's always adoption. Do vampires ever adopt?"

"Just ask Tohrment and Wellsie. I can already tell they think of John as their

own." Rhage smiled. "You want a baby, I'll get you one. And you know, I might be okay as a dad."

"I think you'll be more than okay."

When she bent down to kiss him, he stopped her. "Ah, there's just one other thing."

"What?"

"Well, we're stuck with the beast. I kind of bargained with the Scribe Virgin—"

Mary pulled back. "You bargained?"

"I had to do something to save you."

She stared at him, stunned, and then closed her eyes. He had set the wheels in motion; he had saved her.

"Mary, I had to trade something—"

She kissed him hard. "Oh, God, I love you," she breathed.

"Even if it means you're going to have to live with the beast? Because the curse is perpetual now. Set in stone. Forever."

"I told you, that's fine with me." She smiled. "I mean, come on. He's kind of cute, in a Godzilla sort of way. And I'll look at it as a two-for-one kind of deal."

Rhage's eyes flashed white as he rolled her over and put his mouth on the side of her neck.

"I'm glad you like him," he murmured, his hands tugging up her shirt. "Because the two of us are yours. For as long as you'll have us."

"That would be eternally," she said as she let herself go.

And reveled in all the love.

So, who is you book boyfriend of the week? :)

She Smells the Dead (Spirit Guide #1) by E.J Stevens

It's the beginning of senior year and Yuki's psychic awareness of ghostly spirits is threatening to ruin her life. Her ability to sense spirits of the dead isn't glamorous like the ghost hunting on television.  

SHE SMELLS THE DEAD. 

The smell impressions are becoming stronger. Yuki is being visited in her dreams, and she suspects that her friend Calvin is involved in something strange. To make matters worse her crush on Garrett is going unrequited, Yuki's friend Emma is on a rampage against bee oppression, and annoying Calvin Miller mysteriously disappears. Will Yuki be able to focus her powers in time to save the lost soul who is haunting her? Meanwhile, who will save Yuki from following the spirits into the light?

Spirit Storm (Spirit Guide #2) by E.J Stevens

"Let the spirits guide you, but never let them take you."  

Spirits of the Dead are coming...  

Yuki is about to face an army of lost souls on Samhain, the night of Halloween, when the spirits of the dead roam free. Yuki will need all the help she can get from her friends, but will Calvin be there for her when she needs him the most?

I won the Spirit Guide Novels in a contest hosted by Bitten by Books, where they made a interview with E.J, but this was in February, and until two weeks ago, the first book (which was ordered by Book Depository) wasn't arrived in my mailbox. We are worried over this, but thank god, the book arrived safely! XD

Pegasus and The Flame by Kate O'Hearn

When Pegasus, the majestic winged-stallion, crashes on to her roof in the middle of a storm that blacks-out New York City, 13-year-old Emily's life becomes that of legend: epic battles with gruesome monsters, desperate chases from a corrupt governmental agency, captivating flights astride the beautiful winged-stallion, and one heroic quest to save Olympus before the Olympic flame burns out ...A must for fans of Percy Jackson!

If the story sucks, at the least this cover will look great in my bookshelf! hahahahah 

For Review

Michael Carven is a man who has left a difficult past behind him, and now works at his dream job raising horses under the Montana sky. But he knows that the past has a way of coming back to him, and soon enough, it does. A wave of violence hits the nearby small town of Riverside, nestled deep in the mountains, as a cunning serial killer preys on the population. Against his will, Michael finds himself both drawn into the case and coming to care for his independent new trainer. And if having a killer on the loose wasn't enough, his two worlds collide when Jessica becomes the only material witness in the case. Before it is over, Michael and Jessica will put everything they know and hold dear on the line to catch a vicious, cunning killer - and to protect each other as well.
