Favorite Book Cover

Weekly I will be posting a book cover that I happen to come across and that I thought was really cool. It is very sad but I am a cover judger! These books will be ones that couught my attention. This week it is:

Entwined by Heather Dixon



Description: Confined to their dreary castle while mourning their mother's death, Princess Azalea and her eleven sisters join The Keeper, who is trapped in a magic passageway, in a nightly dance that soon becomes nightmarish.

Isn't it beautiful!? I love it!!

Waiting on Wednesday

Waiting on Wednesday was started by Jill over at Breaking The Spine. It's a feature for bloggers to swoon over upcoming releases they can't wait to get their hands on.

CRESCENDO


Synopsis:
Nora should have known her life was far from perfect. Despite starting a relationship with her guardian angel, Patch (who, title aside, can be described as anything but angelic), and surviving an attempt on her life, things are not looking up. Patch is starting to pull away and Nora can't figure out if it's for her best interest or if his interest has shifted to her arch-enemy, Marcie Millar. Not to mention that Nora is haunted by images of her father and she becomes obsessed with finding out what really happened to him that night he left for Portland and never came home.

The further Nora delves into the mystery of her father's death, the more she comes to question if her Nephilim bloodline has something to do with it as well as why she seems to be in danger more than the average girl. Since Patch isn't answering her questions and seems to be standing in her way, she has to start finding the answers on her own. Relying too heavily on the fact that she has a guardian angel puts Nora at risk again and again. But can she really count on Patch or is he hiding secrets darker than she can even imagine?


My thoughts:
I really enjoyed reading Hush, Hush. I also love the cover of these books! I mean wow they are awesome!! The plot for Hush, Hush was very good so I'm thinking this book will be very good too! I am REALLY excited to read this book!! :)

Review- Stargazer


Stargazer by Claudia Gray

Reading level: Young Adult

Hardcover: 336 pages

The vampire in me was closer to the surface . . .

Bianca, born to two vampires, has always been told her destiny is to become one. But she has fallen in love with Lucas, a vampire hunter who infiltrated Evernight Academy, the exclusive vampire boarding school she attends. Bianca will do anything to be with Lucas, even if it means lying to the powerful vampires of Evernight.

Her deceit leads her to dig deep into the mysteries of the school, and Bianca discovers that even those she trusts the most have their own dark secrets. When a ghostly force begins attacking Evernight—and targeting Bianca—she learns a shocking truth about her past that will forever change her future.

My Thoughts:
This book was pretty good. I will say that I liked Evernight (the first book in the series) more. I was not expecting for a book about vampires to have ghosts. I don't think the problem didn't evolved more in this book like it should have. I still like the characters but am now torn between Lucas and Balthazar!! Over all it was a good story and I would recommend it :)
