Ten exciting looking new book releases, including one that I’m reading as we speak!!! Plus, there’s a few book-bargain finds that are too good to skip. So I made us a list, and I checked it twice! 😉 *snort* Okay I couldn’t help being a little holiday-corny. LOL!

- Hate Story by Nicole Williams <— LIVE!!! NICOLE WILLIAMS ALERT!!! FAKE MARRIAGE ARRANGEMENT BUT… they have both been stung in the past so they don’t want to get attached. “Three years. A million dollars. A solution to both of their problems. They planned it all, from the story of their first meeting to the date of their divorce. Nothing could go wrong. But what they didn’t consider was chemistry, and Nina and Max have no shortage of it. After too many near-kisses, Nina convinces herself that hating Max is better than loving him, and the more she gets to know this soon-to-be-husband of hers, the more she discovers just how very much she truly, madly, and deeply . . . hates him. This isn’t a love story. This is the other kind.” <— YIKES!!! I LOVE the sound of that!!! :D!!!!

There are a couple of these that I almost forgot I was wanting, I need the reminder thank you. I have been trying to read over the Christmas break, The Guide of Time by Cinzia de Santis, I love it, I need to buckle down and just finish it!!
YAY!! I’m so thrilled, Julia.
Now I have to look up the one you’re reading. 😀
Finishing up a Christmas novella, then maybe The Snow fang Bride, One Fell Sweep, or In Barren Ground.
Having a hard time making up my mind.
Maryse, have you read Scarlett Stone by Jewel E. Ann yet? That book! I can’t stop thinking about it. It was a jaw dropping, angsty tear jerky book. Everything we love!! You gotta read it, it had major feels.
I haven’t yet, Robyn (I did just finish Only Trick) and I want to read this new one BAD!!! Thank you for the feedback on it!!! 😀
Just read Tell Me Three Things by Julie Buxbaum. It was NA I guess. MC is 16. It was really good. Didn’t really feel like high school.
Can we gush about Bad Mommy? I don’t usually write reviews on Amazon/Goodreads (there’s a reason I read books and not write them!) but I had to for this one. I won’t repeat it here lol but I will say this… A fascinating, intoxicating read. Brave and honest.
And I loved playing detective – little comments from the book I remember from Facebook/Instagram etc. WOWZERS.
Just finished CD Reiss’s Shuttergirl and it was a page-turner. Really smart writing, good storyline, and satisfying characters. A Paparazzi Photographer/Movie Star, second-time romance, set in LA. Lots of Hollywood twists and turns through both the superficial and gritty sides of the city, that take it back and forth from passionate reconnection to the sadness of impossible circumstances. Definitely recommend it!
All The Ugly and Wonderful Things price dropped to 2.99!!
Beard Science by Penny Reid has dropped to $1.99 too (normally $5.99 and book one in that series, Truth or Beard, is free at the moment!).
Oh more! The Problem with Forever by Jennifer L. Armentrout has dropped to $2.99 (was $7.99) and A Thousand Boy Kisses by Tillie Cole has dropped to $1.99 (was $2.99).
I’m finally reading Dark Matter and just kicking myself for having waited so long to get to it. @10% I have no doubt it’ll be my December favorite.
Just got The Bird and the Sword for $1.99!! And Empire of Storms for $3.99!! 🙂
I am absolutely relishing Bad Mommy. RELISHING!!!!! I love being in the heads of TF’s characters while they are becoming (or already are) unhinged.
TF is one of those authors I want to hug just for the simple fact that they chose to write in this life. 😉
OH!!! A Torch Against the Night by Sabaa Tahir is 2.99!!
I read the first one and it was GREAT! Another spot-on rec from bev. 😉
I really want to read The Bird and the Sword all over again! I absolutely LOVED that book! It’s so different and I LOVE DIFFERENT
I keep seeing y’all mention The Bird and the Sword all over the place, so I finally looked it up. I had marked it on GR but had completely forgotten what it was about. Wow! It sounds awesome! So do the S. Tahir books.
I just wish there were more books like this that weren’t YA. I can read a YA book and enjoy it, and maybe even love it every once in a while, but I just prefer older characters. I’m even ok with 19-21. Do y’all know of any good fantasy romance books like these that have older main characters? Or better yet, would either of these be considered new adult??
Fabi–I’m trying to decide if Dark Matter or Wolfsong is going to be my February challenge book. IF I can wait that long to read either one of them!
lol Nay, they’re kinda different.
btw, I just finished listening to The Bird and the Sword. The h is 20 y.o. and the H several years older. I wouldn’t call it YA. But it doesn’t have any graphic sex scenes so it could be read by a younger audience. It’s really a beautiful fantasy romance, although, I can’t really recommend the narration.
Yep…Bad Mommy, Thoughtless, FSoG, EIT, and (I believe) Mud Vein all take place in Seattle. So does Marrow, and it evens takes place in Lacey where I frequently have to go. 😀
I had to work out of Seattle yesterday which was what brought on all the thoughts of having y’all there with me. 😉
