Get Maryse’s Book Blog updates delivered by email (you’ll get one daily email that will have each post from that day consolidated on it).
Good morning everyone!!!! 😉
WAIT. I just realized I was first to comment!! * throws confetti*
Yay Cheryl! 😉
Good morning all! My head is spinning with so many good looking books.
I NEED MORE READING TIME!!
*wishes more of this confetti was edible*
😉
Good morning guys!!! 😀
Happy Eclipse Monday to my N.A. Friends! *opens boxes of Moonpies, Cosmic brownies and StarClusters*.
Well I’m in the 90% path and they’re saying around 11:47 am.
Oh, did I not say this was candy confetti?!! :->
2:44PM here and we have our eclipse glasses and eclipse doughnuts from Krispy Kreme!!!
Apparently around 93% here a bit after 10. Honestly the sky is just so Smokey not sure you can see much of anything, lol.
Stupid smoke! Lol only 75%here. My luck, those puffy clouds will prevent me from seeing anything.
Maryse. Frayed Silk by Ella Fields. It’s gutting me marmy style. It’s not TJR’s writing style, but it has the same feel her books have–the way your stomach rises in your throat and just sits there. Ugh the angst. It’s awesome. I’m at 55% but so far, I think it’s right up your alley.
Oh R!!! I an looking that up RIGHT NOW!!!!!!! YES PLEASE!!!
Oh, for my birthday book buy, I finally decided to buy two books ending a series. Thief and All the Stars in the Sky. Now I just need the right mood. :/
OMG – Thief was the best of the series is you are referring to the Opportunist/Dirty Red/Thief series. My favorite by far!
Marsye, Cora Brent – Strike went live. Gentry boys spinoff
I’m adding that to today’s big Tuesday new release list, Theresa!! THANK YOU!!!
We are suppose to be at 80% …we will see! The heat has been horrible the past few weeks.. 96..whew!
We are suppose to be at 80% …we will see! The heat has been horrible the past few weeks.. 96..whew!
Lisa, yep. That series. 😀 Right now, I’m reading a PNR, the Unlikable Demon Slayer: Need. It’s one I was waiting to become available so it’s making me happy.
Hey all… did a last minute purchase. Kohl’s was having a sale until 1 pm EST… I legit placed my online order at 1259… hey, I was saving 35%, it was a good deal, LOL!
I’m in a rut. I need a 5 star BADDDD! I may have to drag out the list. But a couple of those up there look promising. If Ever and Half of Me…
Grey…
Dominic.
Bully Book!!
Dominic by LA Casey?
I was debating on Slammed…
The Air He Breathes by Brittainy C Cherry is FREE right now on Amazon! Wrecking Ball is on sale for .99 cents!!! (Whaaaaa!!?!?!?!!!) I LOVED both of these books! Highly recommend them. Wrecking Ball has the same feel as The Wall of Winnipeg and Me. And The Air He Breathes is just amazing – all the feels!
*squeeee* Thank you Ashley! I just one-clicked!!!
Cue up the Avette Brothers if you go for Slammed.
https://youtu.be/T0eSpAgqrWo
Well, we were supposed to feel about 90% of the effect here and…I was less than impressed. I was hoping for some darkness, and there was a clear sky but it was more like an overcast day. Unfortunately I was on my way to work and they wouldn’t allow stopping on the freeway for eclipse viewing. Can you believe that? *scoffs*
But oh WOW! What a few nice surprises up there! 😀
R…any and all of my reading challenges are out the window this month, so I’ve been eyeing Frayed Silk as my next potential read after Wish You Were Here (which I still have yet to start…ahem). You used catnip words!
My eclipse was not great. Sunny the whole time… *sigh* I wanted NIGHT during the day. Even if it was a short night. 😉 LOL!
Slammed was good. Just make sure you also read Dominic. 😀
Oh Grey…Slammed. Colleen Hoover’s first and the reason why I fell in love with her writing. 😉
Amy I’m in the bubble bath ugly crying right this second if that helps. Please send Manny in a life jacket. And drinks. Lots of drinks.
Holy. Sh!t.
I may just have to skip straight to Silk and then just wish I was there.
*kisses Manny bye-bye and hands him to R*
I’ll give him back soon I promise!
Wrecking Ball was GOOD! Had that Wall of Winnipeg feel, but it was still its own book. Bit of a slow burn but really enjoyable. Get it while it’s a bargain! And I see that a second book in the series will be out in a few weeks – Sledgehammer. The author warns that the h has a potty mouth, though. :-/ That’s not usually my fav – either in h or H. Oh well, I’ll keep an open mind cos Wrecking Ball was so good. We’ll see! *rubs hands together in anticipation*
Slammed….*happy sigh*
Will Cooper…*swoon*
I butterflying love that book!! Seriously, it is a must read for all.
R., Frayed Silk sounds really good; although the ugly cry makes me nervous. Reminds me of another book I read, where the h’s husband changed and she didn’t know why and assumed it was another woman. Going to check my kindle…
Ok, I’m back. It’s Love In Rewind, which incidentally is free right now.
LOVED Slammed. *sigh*
Manny is a manager!
Way to offend his pride,R.
Cheryl, I don’t know what to tell you. It makes me think of After I Do a tiny bit. It was a hard cry but it didn’t last long. I’m worried it’s not done with me yet though…
I just finished The Butterfly Project and had a little cry at the sweet ending.
Started Drunk Dial this morning and loving it already! I love this author!
I have it!! I’m debating on whether I want to jump into that one tonight, or go right into my angsty “Something in the Way” trilogy book #2… Gah!! Decisions decisions…
