Top 10 Books I'm Looking Forward to in 2013

 

 

For me, Dashley, it's actually going to be Top 12 haha! Oops, can't help myself!

 

 

TheRules (Project Paper Doll #1) by Stacey Kade- Omg, I just adore and have a special shelf in my heart for this author. Her debut series into the YA world, The Ghost & The Goth, has left a foot print in my soul and I just can not wait to read her new YA series! *squeal* haha

Throughthe Ever Night (Under the Never Sky #2) by Veronica Rossi- The first book was soooo refreshing. I mean, it was like no other dystopians out there that I have read. *squeal* It was breath taking and sitting on your edge, however I was soooo thankfully there was now cliff hangers from the first. But I'm dying for this authors story telling and for these amazing characters! Yee! 

Etiquette& Espionage (Finishing School #1) by Gail Carriger- I have adored Ally Carters spy books and what not, so being a book out there with that them but in an era that women are supposed to have pose, I can't freaking wait. And that cover for Ms. Carriger book, it's just sooo freaking gorgeous, it just adds onto the anticipation.

The Program (Program #1) by Suzanne Young- This one sounds interesting and I really want to see how this one will go, since it's a tough subject in the first place.

Everbound (Everneath #2) by Brodi Ashton- This series was the first time I've ever read about the Persephone myth and it made me fall head over heels for it. The words flowed smoothly and the details and world Mrs. Ashton created, I just can't wait to fall back into!

Perfect Scoundrels (Heist Society #3) by Ally Carter- This series is just so much fun! The heist and the family feel from the team they've put together is just so amazing and you just get sucked in that I just can't wait to be lost in this world once more. ^_^

Impostor (Slide #2) by Jill Hathaway- Slide was interesting and I was hooked. Even though there wasn't much mystery I still very much enjoyed the book, so of course I'm going to continued this series!

Star Cursed (The Cahill Witch Chronicles #2) by Jessica Spotswood- I just couldn't get enough for Born Wicked, just wow! So, of course I'm excited for this one. For the magic, the sisters, the romance, and for everything else. And of course for Mrs. Spotswood's amazing story telling. ^_^ However, I really hope they change the cover for it. It's pretty, yes. But it it's the same charm as the first book.

Towering by Alex Flinn- I have enjoyed a few of Alex Flinn novels before and this plot sounds amazing. Plus, it's freaking Rapunzel! A re-telling of Rapunzel, I've been wondering, hoping, and looking for one since Tangled. Cause, hello, it was freaking adorable, haha! ^_^

Taken(Taken #1) by Erin Bowman- This one intrigues me. Boys are disappearing when they turn eighteen for no reason, hum. *taps chin* haha.

Splintered by A.G. Howard- That cover let alone causes me to go pick it up. I love finding re-tellings and this one of Alice sounds really good and I can't wait for it to come out!

Spirit(Elemental #3) by Brigid Kemmerer- I have just adored this series. All the books have grabbed me one way or another, and this one I'm excited for! Though, I'm afraid for who the main character is. However, he's slowly warming up to me, haha.


So, there you go readers. I hope you found something new here! And I just can't wait to dive into all of these, yee! haha.

What books are you anticipating? I would love to know!


Happy Reading Everybody!

Top 10 of 2012 is hosted by Two Chicks On Books!

 

It's the fourth day and the topis is:

 

Top 10 Best Boyfriends of 2012

 

Now I know the rules for this one: must be from a book released in 2012 and from a book you've read in 2012!

 

These Boyfriends are all from books me and Tasha have read. However, not all from this year. See, we aren't so good at reading books from the actually year we are in haha!

 

Most are from this year, yes! But there are some that are not from this year. So, sorry rules!

 



 

 

Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stepnanie Perkins- Cricket, cricket....what a charming young man and he doesn't even know it. He seriously is just the sweetest, the perfect boy next door!

 

Spark (Elemental #2) by Brigid Kemmerer- Gabriel is a bad boy but only cause that's all he knows. He is sweet, protective, a hero, and can be a hot head but when he's in love all readers hearts will be melted *swoon* <3

 

Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood- Finn, my oh my, I loved him and his shy ways. I loved him most for getting Kate out of her comfort zone and loved it when she was able to talk books with him. That scene was very charming, just like Finn!

 

Everneath by Brodi Ashton- What Jack did at the end, wow, if that isn't great boyfriend material than I don't know what is! 

 

Forgive My Fins by Tera Lynn Childs- Quince, I loved him since he first came into the picture. He may have been annoying to her at first but what this young man goes through and goes through for her, he is seriously amazing in my opinion. Can't wait to buy the second book Monday! :D

 

Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin- Owen I really adored him and his growing love with Liz. He really knew how to make me swoon along wih this sweet romance! <3

City of Lost Souls (The Mortal Instruments #5) by Cassandra Clare -Simon has no clue about women, but he sure is sweet, heartfelt, and funny.

Destined (Wings #4) by Aprilynne Pike -Tam's whole life is pretty much about Laurel.

Infamous (Chronicles of Nick #3) by Sherilyn Kenyon -Nick is so in love with Kody, you can't help but love him.

The Mark of Athena (Heroes of Olympus #3) by Rick Riordan -I love finally seeing Percy as a boyfriend. He's an idiot about it, but I still love him.

Happy Reading Everybody!

Drink, Slay, Love by Sarah Beth Durst- Pearl is sexy, confident, and a girl without filter sometimes but knows how to kick ass!

 

Spark (Elemental #2) by Bigid Kemmerer- I freaking adore Gabriel but the one that I felt shined in this book was Layne. A shy girl turned confident because the right guy showed her everything that is beautiful about her, story of my life. Amazing!

 

Dead Is Not An Option by Marlene Perez- Daisy serious became the person I wanted her to be but still in touch with her light heartiness. I really enjoyed this one!

 

Body & Soul by Stacey Kade- Omg, Alona seriously had to grow in this one which made me love her character even more. God this series, because of these two characters (and of course cause of Stacey's writing) have their own little shelf in my heart.

 

Six Moon Summer by S.M Reine- Seriously, first female werewolf and was totally kick ass! 

 

Forgive My Fins by Tera Lynn Childs- I love mermaids and she is a great mermaid, haha. Her character is strong, stubborn, but helps keep this story with you.

 

My Soul To Take by Rachel Vincent- For a character that has to scream a throat ripping scream, she really knows how to not go insane. She's tough and I enjoyed living in her shoes for a while.

 

Super Zombie Juice Mega Bomb by MJ Ware- What a fun character, he has sense of humor, he's tough and I enjoyed this character immensely!

 

Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin- Dying and then finding yourself on a cruise to pretty much heaven, Liz really knew how to handle it. So she took control and lived her backwards life amazingly while finding love up there. A breathtaking read that I feel I need to go back to!

 

Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead- Rose is kick ass, strong, and knows how to make the pages steamy with a certain male character haha.

 

 

There you go, I hope you like and found a new fun read!

 

Happy Reading Everybody!

 

 

 

 

The Help by Kathryn Stockett -I love Skeeter. She's a strong woman not afraid to take a chance or to make a difference.

Destined (Wings #4) by Aprilynne Pike -Laurel is smart, brave, and definitely an awesome character.

The Last Guardian (Artemis Fowl #8) by Eoin Colfer -I'm picking to characters from this book. I couldn't pick between them. First, Artemis Fowl. He is way too smart for his own good. And than there is Holly Short. She is every kind of bad ass.

 

Divergent (Divergent #1) by Veronica Roth -Tris is coming into her own for most of the book and when she gets there, she's great.

 

Infamous (Chronicles of Nick #3) by Sherrilyn Kenyon -Nick is sweet, nice, and totally brave. And not afraid to kick some ass.

The second I made up my mind to begin to turn back into my regular self, the creature raced up, belched a cloud of donut-scented gas in my face, and, with a distinct note of mischief, said, "Catch me if you can, Alien Hunter!"

 

-from page 144, Daniel X: Game Over

 

 

 

 

I hunkered down nearby as two strangers retrieved Daniel. They said nothing. just loaded him onto a streacher and carried him away.
