Rachel Vincent has a new Teen/young adult series coming out August 1st called Soul Screamers and it sounds really cool.


She doesn't see dead people, but…

She senses when someone near her is about to die. And when that happens, a force beyond her control compels her to scream bloody murder. Literally.

Kaylee just wants to enjoy having caught the attention of the hottest guy in school. But a normal date is hard to come by when Nash seems to know more about her need to scream than she does. And when classmates start dropping dead for no apparent reason, only Kaylee knows who'll be next…

You can download the prequel to it called My Soul to Lose here.

The Library Lizard Lounge is having a contest for a signed copy of My Soul to Take here. Go check it out.

Angels' Blood Review


Plot: 10/10
Originality: 10/10
Characters: 9.5/10
Writing: 8.5/10
Romance/Passion: 8/10
Cover(bonus): 4/5
Score: 46/50 +4= 50

Plot:
The story started a little slow but got a lot stronger as it went along. Even though most of the action was toward the end of the book I was still glued to the pages wanting to hear more about the characters. I LOVED the ending and totally did not see it coming. This story line has so much potential and I can't wait to see which way she takes it.

Originality:
This story line was very different than what I have read before. I was so intrigued by stories behind the Angels and the Guild Hunters. I just love the world that Nalini has created and I can't wait to see what she has in store for us.

Characters:
The characters in this book where great. Elena was strong and stubborn. But she was sometimes too stubborn and I wanted to smack some sense into her. Raphael was a dark, sensual, kick-butt hero but was also kind hearted deep down. Not to mention he was hotness with wings..lol.

Writing:
This was my first Nalini Singh's book but I was overall happy with the writing. Sometimes I got frustrated with the little hints she inserted about their past that would through me off. I would have loved a little more from the love scenes but they were still steamy.

Cover:
The cover was what made me pick up this book. The platinum blond with the innocent looking face caught my attention and I loved how she was looking up into the sky.

Look at all my goodies!!

I checked my mail yesterday and I was sooooo excited to see 3 packages with books in them.In one box was my signed copy of "A Rush of Wings" by Adrian Phoenix that I won from her yahoo group. The next was my copy of "In the Blood" also by Adrian Phoenix that I bought. The last one was a signed ARC of "Bad to the Bone" by Jeri Smith-Ready that I won in her spread the word contest along with a $50 GC to the book store of my choice. You talk about excited. I rarely win anything so to win 2 contest within a few weeks was cool. I will be sinking my teeth into these soon so look for the reviews. I just finished "Angels' Blood" by Nilini Singh and will post a review tomorrow.

Night Embrace Review


Name: Night Embrace (Dark-Hunter, #4)

Date: July 13th 2006 by St. Martin's Paperbacks
Author: Sherrilyn Kenyon
Pages: 408 pages


Dear Reader,

Life is great for me. I have my chicory coffee, my warm beignets, and my best friend on the cell phone. Once the sun goes down, I am the baddest thing prowling the night: I command the elements, and I know no fear. For centuries, I've protected the innocent and watched over the mankind, making sure they are safe in a world where nothing is ever certain. All I want in return is a hot babe in a red dress, who wants nothing more from me then one night.

Instead, I get a runaway Mardi Gras float that tries to turn me into roadkill and a beautiful woman who saves my life but can't remember where she put my pants. Flamboyant and extravagant, Sunshine Runningwolf should be the perfect woman for me. She wants nothing past tonight, no ties, no long-term commitments.

But every time I look at her, I start yearning for dreams that I buried centuries ago. With her unconventional ways and ability to baffle me, Sunshine is the one person I find myself needing. But for me to love her would mean her death. I am cursed never to know peace or happiness-not so long as my enemy waits in the night to destroy us both.

Talon of the Morriganes


Plot: 4.5/5
