Friday Book Blogger Hop, Follow & Tag Along! (11/26)




This week's Follow Friday from Parajunkie: HAPPY FRIDAY!

Book Blogger Hop & Crazy-for-Books question comes from Sarah who blogs at Writer, Reader, Dreamer"What is your favorite book cover?" 
Right now I am loving the cover of Juliana Stone's latest release, His Darkest Embrace

The 18+ Tag Along is hosted by Laurie over at Bitten by Paranormal Romance. This week Laurie asks; Do you have a recent hot m/f/m read? If not just tell us another hot read.
I haven't read one recently but I think the last one was a Lora Leigh, I believe one from her Bound Hearts series. 

I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving and you all have a wonderful weekend. I actually was able to do some Black Friday shopping this morning and it wasn't that bad, didn't have to tackle a singe person. LoL But now I have to sneak in the toys. 
Thank you for stopping by and happy reading! If you want to leave a comment make sure to leave a link to your own blog and I'll comment back. And if you like what you see and decide to follow let me know and I'll be sure to return the love. XOXO

Happy Thanksgiving and Giveaway!

Gobble Gobble everyone! I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving for those of you who celebrate it and for those who don't, a wonderful Friday-eve. 


Today (and tomorrow since I'm posting this a wee bit early) I am thankful for a lot of things but right now I am thankful for half naked Native Americans. Man, where was this guy at all the pow wows I attended growing up? Take me to your wigwam please! 

I am also thankful for all the fabulous authors out there that take the time to create such wonderful worlds for me to fall into and my fellow book blogger/reading addict freaks like me who'd rather be buried in a book then in turkey, mash potatoes and gravy. Which just doesn't compare to kick-ass heroines and sexy alpha-male heroes; less fattening too. =)

And of course I am thankful for all you followers out there who saw something you liked; whether it be reviews, off the wall ramblings or the half naked men, and decided to stick around for more. 
Just for you, my lovely followers, I have a on-the-whim giveaway for the Thanksgiving weekend; 
Fill Out This Form (Giveaway is now closed)
for a chance to win your choice of (1) book from The Book Depository, up to $10.00. Open to wherever The Book Depository ships to. 
Ends at 11:59 on Sunday, November 28th. Comments don't count, you must fill out the form, but are always appreciated. =) 


OH! I am also thankful for never having to cook a Thanksgiving dinner, yet, because we have family who live close by who do. Though I have offered up to cook my yummy caramel pecan pumpkin pie. Speaking of which I must get that started, I hope everyone has a fabulous day. Be positive, be thankful and of course; Happy Reading!

"Waiting On" Wednesday (6): Pale Demon by Kim Harrison


Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. 



Pale Demon

The Hollows Series
by Kim Harrison
Release Date: 02/22/2011


Banned from the flight lists, Rachel teams up with tycoon Trent Kalamack, headed for the West Coast for his own mysterious business. Can a witch, an elf, a living vampire, and a pixy in one car survive for over 2,300 miles?
And that’s not counting the assassin on their tail.

Find out more about the Hollows series & books at Kim's website HERE

I must say, with this summary from Kim's website I'm not sure what's going on but I am excited to see what Rachel's next adventure will be.
