Thriller Thursday (#1)

Because it is October and the only interesting thing this month is Halloween, I'd like to start Thriller Thursday. No, I'm not someone who watches horror movies or reads "scary" books, but I do read a fair amount of thriller/adrenaline novels. So in that case this week's Thriller Thursday will be three books that I think have the Thriller aspect down pat. Because you know three thriller novels on Thriller Thursday is what you do in October.



1) Divergent by Veronica Roth

Divergent is the only book that has kept my heart racing and my hands shaking the whole way through. So that was about two and a half days straight. I know Divergent is huge in the ya world, and you probably have read it before, but you should read it again this October.

If you want to know more of my thoughts on Divergent, here's my review.




2)The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson


If you didn't know about TNotS already, it's a ripper book. Oh so your interested?? YES!!! Because you should be and the fact that it's coming out in paperback soon is enough. Nevertheless, read it, tell me your thoughts, did you get chills from ghosts haunting you? Good. Very good.

3) Nevermore by Kelly Creagh

By the title you might guess that it is has something to do with Edgar Allan Poe. Don't mind the cover of the novel, I don't like it much either, but Nevermore will blow your mind. I give it the seal of approval, if you trust my word, which I doubt you do. Poe is known for the dark poetry, so why not on Thriller Thursday?! Yeah!

Giveaway to come!!!

Hi, guys. I've been blogging for almost a year coming up this holiday season, and I wanted to give back. I'm not sure of what things to giveaway, but they are book/writing related. I'll have another post with all the specific info, but for now all I'm saying is that the giveaway is international. You can live anywhere, as long as the US Postal service can get to you.

What I'm thinking about is one book, a journal, and a gift card. That is one prize out of the three of them. All three of them will have one book, a journal, and a gift card, to be clear.

The giveaway will end sometime in December, and you may enter by commenting below. I will allow people to pre-enter on this post here, but be aware that I have not chosen what to giveaway yet, and there might be somethings you won't like.

I NEED YOUR HELP!!

All I ask is for you to comment below on the book you want, or is on your wish list. I won't be giving out ebook copies, because that is too difficult. If you do that one thing, then technically you're helping yourself, because more than likely I will be putting that in the giveaway.

Please spread the word around about this giveaway!! I will be posting the official Giveaway post in October. 

To-be Read (reviewed) List

I'm currently reading this novel, and am loving it so far. I might have the review up by next week.
















I've recently, like a few days ago recieved this novel. I am hoping to have one of those sit down and read for the whole day next weekend, and get this book reviewed next week as well.















I bought this book for school because I don't have an ereader I can bring to school, but that will be changing soon in the next two-three weeks. I have read Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly and have reviewed the novel and you can check it out when you click on the Book Reviewed section of the blog.













I'm involved in a book tour for this novel and have a specific date that I'm supposed to post my review on. So far, not very far really, I love the writing and expansive world the author has created.
