That's all, folks!

3/20/13

For the past year, I have been struggling with both my new passion in nutrition and with attempts to rekindle my old passion in book reviewing. I still love these books and genres, but after three years, reading transformed from a hobby to a job that stressed me out. It didn't help that the community changed and I fell out of the loop.

I will still maintain my twitter account. If you want to chat with me, or if you want to talk books (because let's face it, I'll never STOP reading!), then feel free to follow me on there if you haven't already. Let's tweet!

I thank everyone who has supported me and this blog over the years. Specifically: Alice, Amanda, Book Dragon, and Binah for guest reviewing.

For those of you who are still interested in my thoughts regarding books, I WILL be keeping my GoodReads account active. I will be updating that. So I guess you can say I'm not completely gone :)

So that's all, folks! It's been a fun and amazing journey, and I thank you all for listening to my thoughts about books. I hope we all can keep in touch elsewhere :)

xoxo

Cover Wars: Something Strange and Deadly VS Sweet Evil

Cover Wars
(inspired by Kate's Throwdown Thursday at The Neverending Shelf)

Cover Wars is a weekly post occurring every Monday at Book Faery.
Two covers will have a "face off," and it will be up to the readers to
decide who is the victor and who is the loser.  This is a great way for
readers to have their voice be heard, while also promoting new/old books
in the process.

Last week we had a showdown between Vengeance Moon by Lee Roland and Royal Street by Suzanne Johnson.

The Winner:
Royal Street by Suzanne Johnson!!



Something Strange and Deadly VS Sweet Evil




The beautiful dresses seem to be a trend in YA that shows no signs of slowing down. Which cover gets your vote?

  1. Oh shoot. They are both gorgeous! :) But I think I like Something Strange the most, because the guy on Sweet Evil looks kind of creepy (A) lol :)

  2. Strange & Deadly. I love love LOVE the color red, however, the other cover doesn't appeal to me as much.

  3. Choosing is hard! I like them both. I like how Strange & Deadly is darker in colors but Sweet Evil gives off a darker feeling (I especially love how one side is light and the right side is foreboding). But I still couldn't choose.

  4. I'm liking Something Strange and Deadly. Her dress, her expression, the background... very eye-catching and intriguing. XD

  5. Ditto what Tori said! I lvoe the red, but the Strange & Deadly cover grabs my attention more.... I like the idea of a strong woman on the cover WITHOUT needing a man ;-)

  6. I like Strange and Deadly too. The other cover looks like it's trying too hard to be sexy.
