I recently realized how much work and organization is needed to successfully run a blog. I didn’t assume it would be easy but I never guessed what it really took. I thought my legal pads and various sticky notes, would be enough to make everything run smoothly. Of course all that did was bury my work desk, my […]
I went into “Valkyrie Rising” with absolutely NO knowledge of what a Valkyrie even was. In fact the most I know about Norway is that it’s cold most of the time (strike one in my eyes). However I’m a sucker for a pretty cover and a nice blurb and “Valkyrie Rising” had both. Now don’t you go judging me. I […]

Nobody by Jennifer Lynn Barnes To be published January 22nd, 2013 There are people in this world who are Nobody. No one sees them. No one notices them. […]
Stacking the Shelves and Showcase Sunday are two separate weekly meme’s with similar ideas. They are both here to help us book bloggers showoff showcase what new books we have added to our collection this week. I know what you’re thinking. “Octavia why participate in two weekly meme’s with the same themes”? I will tell you why…Because I am awesome […]

So I have a small confession to make. I added this book to my TBR shelf on Goodreads just because of the cover. Yes, it’s true. I, the awesomeness behind Read, Sleep, Repeat, am a cover whore. To be completely honest birds of all kinds really freak me out, so when I saw this cover […]
I originally gave “Sanctum” four stars and after thinking about it I have decided I must have been delusional. “Sanctum” is the story of Lela, who literally goes to hell to free her best friend Nadia who committed suicide. That right there put the book at a disadvantage for me. It may sound selfish but […]
Before I go all “balls to the wall” on this review let me explain something really quick. This is my first introduction to the world of Ms. Andrea Nash. Keep that in mind now. Moving on. Gunmetal Magic was the kind of book that hit the ground running, right through a brick wall. I get […]
Before you start with all the cussing and yelling at me for giving this book a low rating please hear me out. Unspoken was a book I literally counted down the days to. I wanted this book almost as bad as Onyx (and believe me I had an actual timer on my phones home screen for that one) […]
Apparently I am one of the few people who have not read Gena’s Lords of the Underworld series, and after reading Wicked Nights I can see that I have completely deprived myself of here genius. Zacharel was one of those creamsicle popsicles I use to love as a kid. Hard and cold on the outside but soft and […]
