Halloween Quote And Giveaway!!

So this morning I was scouring goodreads, looking for some great books to add to my TBR pile that is getting bigger by the day. With Halloween right around the corner, and the fact that I write vampire books I found this quote fabulous!

Book of the week and Beautiful Darkness giveaway!!!

This week I've been a little behind on my blog posts.. Due to the success of my last giveaway I've decided to host another one. This time, I'll be giving away a copy of the much anticipated sequel of Beautiful Creatures, Beautiful Darkness. So stay tuned for a chance to enter.

This week's book of the week is The Hollow by Jessica Verday. I heard about this book from Jenn @bookcrazy. She had been tweeting about it and I was instantly intrigued. I was beyond delighted to discover that The Hollow has a sequel, The Haunted. There is nothing that excites me more than a book that I hear is fabulous! If you haven't added The Hollow yet, be sure to do so. I can't wait to read it! I hear it is fantastic!

Book Of The Week and YA BOOK GIVEAWAY..

The book of the week this week is Origins:(The Vampire Diaries, Stefan's Diaries Book # 1) by:L.J Smith, Kevin Williamson, and Julie Plec. Now I have to say, I read the original series by L.J Smith and absolutely loved it! When I found out they were coming out with a book that had to do with the show, and not so much the original series, I was kind of sceptical. But, I'm always the type of person who will give books a shot, then form my own opinion. So Origins is the next book on my TBR. Keep watch, next week I'll let you know what I think.

In the meantime, the YA book giveaway is still going on and there are only two days left to enter... Three winners will be picked!!!!
