www Wednesday- May 14

Happy Wednesday! Here's my WWW  for this week.  WWW Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.

  To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?


Anyway, here are my answers for this week:

CURRENTLY READING: 

ALEX (A Rylee Adamson Short Story)

I've been reading the Rylee Adamson series this whole week (Priceless, Immune, Raising Innocence, and mos recently Shadowed Threads..) and everytime I finish a book, I require myself to read the next book immediately because the series is so good!

Yep, I love this Shannon Mayer series, I love Rylee's fast mouth and devil may care attitude. But for now, I have to put a stop on her Tracking and read about her loyal bestfriend werewolf ALEX. I really want to learn more about this 19-year old man trapped inside a werewolf's body, with a mind of a kindergarten. Really!

RECENTLY FINISHED READING:

As I've mentioned above, I've recently read Shadowed Threads, the 4th book of the Rylee Adamson series. Seriously, this book kicks ass, not to mention, Rylee, kicks a lot ofOn butt.. One heck of a story, and I couldn't wait to read the next one!

WILL READ NEXT: 

Once I get my hands on the next Rylee Adamson series, I will definitely read BLIND SALVAGE.

Summary from Amazon:
"My name is Rylee, and I am a Tracker."

When children go missing, and the Humans have no leads, I'm the one they call. I am their last hope in bringing home the lost ones. I salvage what they cannot.

Crossing into Ogre country is dangerous when you're a polite, respectful gal. Which means I already know I'm in for a wild ride, despite the back up I've brought along.

Even when things start to go sideways, and enemies close on us from every side, I still believe we have the upper hand.

How very blind can one person be when it comes to a salvage?


ALTERNATE READ:


Just in case I cannot read the above-mentioned book, I plan to read E.L. Todd's Flight of Life (Essense Series # 1).
I heard good stuffs about this series. Maybe it's time I'll give it a try later. I love the tagline, by the way:

People are good. Sometimes, they do bad things.

The ultimate frat boy, drinking and ending up with a different girl every night.  What would happen when they meet? I wonder what..

Another wonderful story from Felicia Tatum. I enjoyed her White Aura novel, so for sure, this one is going to be another hit!

Happy Wednesday! Here's my WWW  for this week.  WWW Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.

  To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?

Anyway, here are my answers for this week:

Currently Reading: 

White Heaven Woman - by Jessie B. Tyson

The author herself gifted this story to me, so I am very much thankful for trusting me with a review. I hope to finish reading this novel within this week. As a teaser, this is about reincarnation, blue ghosts, reliving past memories and dealing with a not-so-normal life.

Separated by Death, Reunited by Fate…
In the year 1899, in Whitehaven, Cumbria, UK, Lady Constance Witherspoon, only 14 years of age, gives birth to twin girls during a tumultuous storm. Lady Elisa (Beth) is born with a diagnosis of demonic possession, while her twin, Lady Sarah, is crushed and killed when the ceiling collapses in the storm.


Finished Reading:

That would be the next book sensation, Megan Curd's Steel Lily. A very moving tale of love, betrayal, loyalty,
friendship and dedication. I received this book as an advance readers copy from the author herself in exchange of an honest review.

I am telling you, as early as now, that this book deserves a 5 star ***** rating! It is a magnificent steampunk dystopian novel that would literally make your heart skip a beat. :)

A review is on the way. I'll post my thoughts, comments, emotions and everything later. I promise!


Will Read Next...

I am thinking of Tremble by Addison Moore. I really love her writing and I miss her stories so maybe this is going to be the next book I am going to read.

Here's a summary from goodreads.com

TREMBLE is the sequel to ETHEREAL (Celestra Series Book 1)  
Sixteen year-old, Skyla Messenger is determined to bring back the dead. 
For Skyla, being an angel from the coveted Celestra faction hasn't been easy.  
An entire band of wicked angels is after her blood, a Sector is after something far more sinister, and her newfound powers lead her on a quest to save her dead father. 

Skyla and her boyfriend Logan try to piece together a plan to take down the Countenance in order to maintain their relationship, but will Skyla's burgeoning feelings for Gage get in the way?
 
And when Skyla decides to use her powerful blood to change the fate of another deceased soul, just who is going to stop her?

Time flies so fast! It's the middle of the week! Here's my WWW  for this week.  WWW Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.

  To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?


Anyway, here are my answers for this week:
As always, I make sure that my books are organized, may it be on my Kindle or on my wooden shelf. Since it is June, it is the wedding month, and part of my routine is to read based on themes. So most of the books I read have wedding stories.
Currently Reading: A Walk To Remember 
One of my favorite love stories of all time. The title itself means the long walk to the altar, the walk that was meant for Jamie Sullivan, the walk that she and Landon would always remember. 

 Truth is, I have already read this novel more than five years ago. But since this is the wedding month and I kind of missed Nicholas Sparks, I decided to read A Walk to Remember one more time. 

  Recently Finished Reading: 
 Done with the following: 
 A Wedding Story by Dee Tenorio 
Always the Last To Know by Crystal Bowling 
Married By Mistake by Abby Gaines 
 I'm goona write reviews for each of those stories very soon!! 

   
Will Read Next:
  Hmm.. Probably, The Fairy Tale Bride (Once Upon a Wedding #1) by Kelly McClymer  

 So what are your books this Wednesday? Happy Wednesday!

I Think I Love You


So there's some bad blood and bruised egos among the Metcalf sisters. At least they're reuniting. A cause to celebrate? Not for Justine, Regina, and Mica. Their parents are splitting up and the family business is going on the auction block--just a little reminder of how much they really have in common...

Take the local bad boy who proposed to Justine, seduced Regina, and ran off with Mica. Add the unsolved murder they witnessed when they were young girls, and their vow to keep it a secret. Toss in their knack for being drawn to shady men, and there's only one thing left for them to do--put the bonds of family loyalty to the test.

But it takes courage to outsmart a murderer, know-how to avenge the cad who betrayed them, and patience to bring their parent back together. Three talents. Three sisters. And who knows? Maybe even three new chances to fall in love when Justine, Regina, and Mica discover how much they're willing to risk--and forgive--in the name of sisterhood...

In Deep Voodoo


START WITH BAD MOJO...
There's something strange afoot in the small town of Mojo, Louisiana. Yet even as the annual voodoo festival gets underway, Penny Francisco, who runs a health food business, refuses to believe in black magic. Her mind is on celebrating her divorce from her lying, cheating husband Deke.

ADD A PINPRICK OF REVENGE...
Fueled by run-ins with her ex-mother-in-law and Deke's busty mistress, Penny is eager for the "emancipation party" her friends plan. When she receives a Deke voodoo doll as a gag gift, she sticks it with a pin as a joke. But when Deke winds up fatally stabbed, the police aren't laughing.

AND WATCH THINGS BOIL OVER...
A junk-food junkie P.I. offers his services, and although Penny is wary of the sexy Cajun's motives (and his diet), she's desperate. Dodging a media sideshow and a looming murder rap, Penny realizes that somehow she's landed herself In Deep Voodoo.

Voodoo or Die


You always find your mojo in the last place you look for it…

Gloria Dalton was forced into the witness protection program as a teenager and ripped away from her first love. She’s spent her entire life looking over her shoulder. Now 30, she decides to move to the small town of Mojo, Louisiana to take over the practice of a dead lawyer and to start her life over, hopefully for the last time. But a welcome gift on her first day of work turns out to be a voodoo doll, and then a horrible death occurs that's too close for comfort. To top her surreal day, the new Chief of Police arrives on the scene and it’s her first love, Zane Riley.

During the investigation, Gloria can’t ignore the attraction between her and Zane, but is guilt ridden because he doesn’t know who she really is. When another voodoo doll appears and the body count rises, Gloria begins to suspect her past life and the recent murders are connected. Suddenly her quest to find her mojo turns into a quest to stay alive in Mojo! Gloria learns that when it comes to solving a murder, it’s VOODOO OR DIE.

The Emperor's Edge by Lindsay Buroker


Imperial law enforcer Amaranthe Lokdon is good at her job: she can deter thieves and pacify thugs, if not with a blade, then by toppling an eight-foot pile of coffee canisters onto their heads. But when ravaged bodies show up on the waterfront, an arson covers up human sacrifices, and a powerful business coalition plots to kill the emperor, she feels a tad overwhelmed.
Worse, Sicarius, the empire's most notorious assassin, is in town. He's tied in with the chaos somehow, but Amaranthe would be a fool to cross his path. Unfortunately, her superiors order her to hunt him down. Either they have an unprecedented belief in her skills... or someone wants her dead.




Recently Finished Reading:

The Light of Asteria (Kailmeyra's Last Hope)

by Elizabeth Isaacs

I'm not sure I liked the story because I was agitated with the long-winding tale of extreme love-at-first-sight (Nora and Gavin of the Frey). I was just a little bored because I felt that certain scenes were a bit too long for my liking. There's a bit similarity with the composition of characters - being a part of a family who live with their mates, having mental powers like reading one's thoughts, super-duper protection given to the female lead - but no, the lead stars are not vampires but they were Elves..

Hmmm.. Surprisingly though, I finished reading it and i'm looking forward to reading the sequel. For now, I'll settle for a 3-star rating.


Better Off Dead by Matthew Rowe

Hilariously funny & witty! I really enjoyed reading this. Check out my book review here: Better Off Dead

Along the way, she encounters Gabe Willoughby—the mysterious drifter with eyes like the sea and a knowing smile. Getting to know Gabe raises questions about her past. But no secret can be buried forever, and Ashton soon finds herself in a world where water is air and myth becomes reality.
Just as Ashton comes to accept her newfound heritage, she’s summoned to fulfill a treaty laid down centuries before — a treaty that will divide her love and test her loyalty. In the end, her future isn’t her biggest concern, her humanity is. To run may mean war, but is she strong enough to stay?

The Frozen Trail by Lisa Dayley


I'm not a Mormon but I just happened to come upon this story about an incredible journey of a family to find a new home. I thought the story was good; lots of lessons to be learned. Here's a simple summary from amazon.

In 1856 the Mormon pioneers trekked across the Great Plains in wagon trains and pulling handcarts, to find a new home safe from persecution. This is the story of one 18-year-old young woman, Emma Girdlestone, of the Willie Handcart Company, who faced starvation, frostbite, and death so she and her family could join their fellow Latter-day Saints in the Salt Lake Valley.
