Tumblr hates me
I wrote up another long review of a new series to go along with the pics below and posted it.
Everything seemed like it was gonna go my way!
But no, of course not.
The whole review is missing, and Iām left with the pics and tags. Geez!
Dude, seriously suffering from a wicked book hangover on this overly sunny Tuesday in Texas... Insert something funny about hoping for no error notifications... yeah right! This will probably be pretty long because it is a 5 books series with 2 tie-in books (and another on the way). The Fae Chronicles by Amelia Hutchins Reading order: Fighting Destiny Taunting Destiny Escaping Destiny Seducing Destiny A Demonās Dark Embrace Playing With Monsters Unraveling Destiny Sleeping with Monsters (ETA TBD) NO SPOILERS As usual, you wonāt find any spoilers on my blog. Itās one of my only rules. If you would like to discuss or ask me questions please, PLEASE send me a DM. Iād love to talk about this series, or any book for that matter! Here goes.... Iām usually pretty skeptical of paranormal/supernatural reads, though skeptical seems to be my constant state of mind lately lol. You just never know what to expect, if itāll be the same old story youāve read a thousand times, or if the author has taken her/his own creative liberties by giving the characters/creatures their own personal, magical, and biological traits. To be honest, the latter makes me more nervous because you never know how it will end up or if it will make sense. Amelia Hutchins took ācreative libertiesā, but in a way you wouldnāt expect. She kept a lot of the traits that we know and love for most of the creatures, but added her own twist to them. I wasnāt too sure about it at first but it seems that she put a lot of careful thought into it so everything came out beautifully and still made sense. A hard feat if you ask me, creating your own world. NOTE TO READERS: This series contains A LOT of explicit hot and steamy scenes and is meant for readers 18+ only. Also she seems to be fond of cliff hangers, as there is one at the end of every book. She does do her best to tie some things up but still leave you reeling for your next fix, in the form of the next book. I finished Fighting Destiny in less than two days. Thatās 400+ pages. I finished all 7 books in 9 days. (Now you see where the name of this particular blog comes from lol) They were so good that I couldnāt put them down and was up until the early morning hours reading, even knowing that I had to be up at 6 to get the boy to school. I originally a downloaded FD because it was FREE and I had just finished a different book that left me wanting.... I donāt regret it for one minute lol The tie-in books give you the chance to explore characters that we already know and love, While also introducing new characters that you will fall in love with. Even if it is a love-hate kind of love. This series has lots of action, mystery, magic, Otherworlds ;), and some catastrophically hot and dirty scenes. If you like your heroines to be warriors with a sassy mouth and quick wit.... this could be for you. If you like tall, dark, and handsome alpha men with a bad boy streak, need for control, and a conscience..... this could be for you. But if you like both... this is DEFINITELY a series you will love! This series will probably wreck you, more than a few times. But only in that āhurts so goodā kind of way lol Grab it, read it, enjoy it. Leave me a note :)
Iām back... again
So yeah, for my āgreat returnā I wrote out a review for a trilogy that I read.... and then it disappeared!
Like, seriously! It was well thought out (and kinda long, cuz ya know, thatās how I do< sorry about that lol) with pictures and everything.... then a message pops up saying āunknown error occurredā AFTER I hit the post button!
I even explained why I was MIA (again), more or less. And now itās gone.
So, Iām back. But my amazing review will have to wait until tomorrow because, ya know, kids and early mornings.... bleh!
Terrible Blogger.... Still
Geez, Iām the worst! Not that there is anyone following me to see that Iām the worst lolā¦
So Iāve read a TON of books since last posting. I finished re-readings the HP Series, re-read the Percy Jackson series (for the 4th time), plus lots of āsexy timesā books. Iām not into the 50 Shades business, but give me a hot and steamy romance/paranormal romance and I am sunk!
Most of those hot and steamy books came from this amazing website called BookBub, where you can get FREE and SUPER DISCOUNTED ebooks to download straight to your phone or tablet. Itās amazing and I love it!
P.S. If you'd like to know the titles of some of these "sexy times" books drop me a note or a DM

Harry Potter and the Cursing Child....
As Iāve mentioned, Iāve been re-reading the Harry Potter series, and I just finished two days ago. Thatās about 2 and a half weeks to read all 7 books. So now of course Iām wondering whether to try reading Fantastic Beasts, or to start The Cursed Child. With all of these thoughts bumbling around in my head I still have to take of the āday jobā (which is kids and cleaning). One of said kids (my youngest) seems to have gotten her mouth from her momma :/ after finishing dinner one night she was asking for more applesauce, to which bother her dad and I told her we donāt have any more and sheāll have to wait until I go to the store. Well, being the perfectly timed smart ass 3 year old that she can be, she replied āoh, dammit!ā. Of course we got on to her and told her that she canāt say things like that, just like we did with our oldest when he was that age. But unlike our oldest, she uses her ācursesā in the perfect way at the perfect time. So of course after her scolding I have to run to the other room to hide my laughter at the perfect title to this blog that popped into my head! Some may say Iām a bad mom, but I did the appropriate thing and my children are both very well taken care of, so I get to laugh. That is my payment for staying home all day with the monster and for neither of my children looking like me. At least they got some of my traits scattered amongst them lol
So back to Harry Potterā¦. Iāve read the reviews on TCC and while a lot of people didnāt like the fact that it was written as a script, I think that Iād be okay with it. Drop me a note and tell me what you thought of it one way or the other.
Iām of to take care of that cursing child of mineā¦. at least she keeps things interesting! :)
Harry Potter and the escape from motherhood?
I just started RE-reading the Harry Potter series for the first time since I was pretty young. I have made it to the 5th book in less than a week. Itās been pretty amazing, the boy was on break from school for the holidays so I really only had my two tiny humans to deal with. He went back to school today and Iāve got both of my nieces back under my roof for the first time in nearly 2 weeks. Of course I have been immersed in these books, (because really, who isnāt?) but today with all the little people around my brain has gone haywire and doesnāt particularly like putting sentences together, much less whole paragraphs and chapters. So here I am, its nap time, and Iām praying that Harry Potter will give me a bit of an escape from motherhood⦠at least until they wake upā¦. but I REALLY should be cleaningā¦
So, I started reading the Summer Lake series (thanks in huge part to BookBub) by SJ McCoy partly because the first 3 were free, and partly because I had just finished reading all 10 books of the Percy Jackson series and wanted a fun read. I'm not usually into romance. From some I've read they are unrealistic and kind of forced. Like I said, I was looking for fun and this definitely met that hope/expectation. The series is advertised as "Sweet & Steamy", and it is. In fact, it's so sweet and funny that I usually find myself smiling like an idiot while reading, and so steamy that I can't tear my eyes from the "page". Yes, it has the mandatory hunky (and usually wealthy) men that you'd expect from a romance novel, but it also shows other sides to those men as well, basically they aren't "all braun and no brain". While the women really vary in looks and background. I am currently on the 7th book and will be very sad when I finish the 10th. Summer Lake is such a fun place to visit I'm not sure that I want to leave ;)
Terrible "blogger"
Goodness! I created this blog months ago and have yet to write anything! I have been reading like mad, just haven't put down my book/tablet long enough to even think about writing. I plan to start writing tonight... A little bit anyways :)
