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: Gilt VS Cold Kiss

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 The Immortal Rules and Vampire Shift.

The Winner:
The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa!


Gilt VS Cold Kiss

  1. Hmm. While I think the content for Gilt is more interesting, I don't like the way you look up the cover model's nostrils. Sort of like the black holes of now return. So I'll go with Cold Kiss. Overall, I think it looks a bit more professionally done.

  2. This one's tough... I love the font for both, but I think GILT's font is more attractive. As for the cover model, I prefer COLD KISS over GILT, just because her face is less distracting and I like the frosted effect. Plus, the colors work well together.

    If my vote was going just by font, GILT would win.
    Since this is the cover in its entirety, I'd have to say COLD KISS. It's more telling.

  3. Cold Kiss for me. I don't like seeing up people's nostrils xD

  4. Cold Kiss please, I don't like looking into noses.

  5. I agree with Tori and want to add that I would like to know what lipstick the Gilt model is wearing! But overall composition? COLD KISS, hands down.

  6. I really like the font for Gilt as well but I can't get over looking up her nose. So I vote for Cold Kiss..

  7. I can see why the nostrils might not be popular, but to me, the font's more important. In addition, I like seeing more of the face. The lips on GILT look more realistic - and yes, like jessicacorra, I love that lipstick! So my vote's for GILT.
