15 Day Book Blogging Challenge ( Day 4 )


4. What's the last book you flung across the room?

I've never really been a thrower. Oh I have imagined it many a time, but I could never actually do it! 

Here are some of the different ways I react to books ( When I am not happy ) 

A. Dissapointment: When A book is simply letting me down and not living up to it's potential I close the book ( or the cover on my nook ) , set my hand on top of it, and shake my head sadly. 



D. The Lover's cry: When a couple should be together, but isn't. Or Shouldn't be, but is. I Hold my hands out and just sob a little.. * why... why.... WHY?* 



C. Heartbroken: Now we are near the top of my wrung. When the author does something to their characters that is just... devastating.  Kiera Cass was the last one to do this to me. A Scene in The Elite with one of my favorite characters. I just... I couldn't believe what was happening. 

The Book Sits in my hands, still open. I stare at my walls, trying to understand... what...just...happened. I'm Broken. 

( Seriously guys... this is sad David Tennant standing in the rain... 
FEEL MY PAIN ) 

D. The Rage: I read something that cannot possibly be true. A character has done something so despicable - or the author had someone do something to a MC- So heinous. I grip the book tightly, it cuts into my hand as I raise it high * cue dramatic music getting louder and louder * I imagine it soaring through the air! Heating the satisfying * CRACK* as it hits the wall and then falls to it's doom!

But it never leaves my hands. If anything, the worst I have done is toss it to the end of my bed, cross my arms while seething, and stare it down. Then I give in. Pick it back up, and read until it makes me happy again.

Bond Genre: YA Fantasy Editor: Stacy Sanford/ The Girl with the Red Pen Cover Designer: Melissa Stevens/ The Illustrated Author Design Services Publication Date: March 13 th , 2020 Hosted by: Lady Amber’s PR Blurb: Spirit and Stone. Song and Sky. Fate and Future all align. On my seventeenth birthday, I finally heard Fate’s voice. He whispered to me again and again, insisting I find the Omen of Stones. Having never heard of such lore, I thought I could ignore his pleas. The Summer Solstice proved otherwise. Being surrounded by fellow witches worked my magic up into a powerful swell that crashed and churned within me. As the energy crackled through my veins, I shunned my royal duties to follow the call of my heart. Venturing beyond the safety of the Kingdom’s borders, I felt Fate nudging me toward a destiny I was eager to claim. Confidence in my craft blinded me from the ominous clouds of danger that roiled on the horizon. Captured by purists de...

The Vicious Deep

The Vicious Deep written by Zoraida Cordova I haven't read any other mermaid YA novels, although I hear there's a relatively new-ish trend towards the mermaid trope.  After reading this one, I'm really not sure I want to seek out any more mermaid books.  I tried to be open-minded and read the whole book, but really, though, this was not a good book for me.  Just in terms of the writing style, basic sentence variation goes a long way to counter awkward writing.  It's something I personally struggle with, but then, I'm not looking to be a published writer either.  Beyond that though, the story itself...Tristan is the obnoxious popular kid you can't stand at school.  He's full of himself, you can't relate to him, despite his role as the main character , he's shallow, sexist, unlikable...the list of adjectives goes on.  He's a caricature of hotheaded teenage arrogance.  Guys, the sentence "I'm not rippling with the muscles of the other bros,...
