The Wait Game Feels

Am I the only one who feels like all the books I'm waiting on either come out in August or are on a TBA release date?

If not, what are you reading?

Help a fellow bookie/ bibliophile out!

August is like a month and some days away.

Any suggestions to get me through if not….

this will be me by mid July.



AND I DONT EVEN SMOKE!!!

help me stay a non smoker. 


LOL. 

ok but seriously, I am definitely open to old book, new book, arc book, blue books suggestions…. well no, I'm not open to blue books, they bring back nightmares from last semester. . . but you get me!

Good night my fellow Bookies and Biblios.

The Greek Billionaire and I ~ Marian Tee Review

The Greek Billionaire and I
by: Marian Tee


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Warning: I may be a bit biased because I love her books. Read them all, except two.

This book was awesome. 

I literally laughed out loud a few times. 

I almost shed a tear. 

Needless to say the feels were way to real. 

Read it. Enjoy it. Its worth it. 

Will I reread it. 

Yes, probably sometime in the very near future. 



These Broken Stars ~ Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner Review

These Broken Stars 
by: Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner



⭐⭐⭐⭐

So, if you haven't noticed yet, at times I can be a bit of a sic-fi nerd. Ok, honesty hour, I am a sic-fi nerd. The point is, new sic-fi series always excite me and causes me to be cautious. 

This book was no exception. 

Before I began I was like please don't let this be awful and a complete waste of my time.

And my pleading was answered. 

These Broken Stars tells a wonderful story with powerful themes. 

I'd recommend it, and not because of my nerd status, but because it was truly a good story. The plot development was awesome. 

Will I reread this again? 

Maybe. 

ok probably yes. 

It's been a while...

So I've been missing in action for a few weeks.

Sorry.

I was having some personal problems and long story short, I'm just now starting to bounce back.

But enough about my sob story.

This past week I read two books. One's been out the other is fairly new to the bookie scene.

First up, something old:




It's a night like any other on board the Icarus. Then, catastrophe strikes: the massive luxury spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux and Tarver Merendsen survive. And they seem to be alone. 

Lilac is the daughter of the richest man in the universe. Tarver comes from nothing, a young war hero who learned long ago that girls like Lilac are more trouble than they’re worth. But with only each other to rely on, Lilac and Tarver must work together, making a tortuous journey across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help. 

Then, against all odds, Lilac and Tarver find a strange blessing in the tragedy that has thrown them into each other’s arms. Without the hope of a future together in their own world, they begin to wonder—would they be better off staying here forever?

Everything changes when they uncover the truth behind the chilling whispers that haunt their every step. Lilac and Tarver may find a way off this planet. But they won’t be the same people who landed on it.



And now something fairly new:





When the powerful, sexy, and gorgeous Greek billionaire Mykolas Sallis finds a misplaced cellphone and reads its messages, he becomes intrigued with its owner, a woman who seems to possess the rare combination of beauty, wit, and lots of snappy comebacks.

13:15 How about going for a movie tomorrow night?

13:16 Thomas, you're a good guy, so I'm going to tell you the truth once and for all.

13:17 What is it?

13:18 I'm a lesbian. I want your d*ck - but not for the reasons you're hoping for.

When curvy 24-year-old schoolteacher Velvet Lambert speaks with the Greek billionaire the first time, she knows right away she's out of her league. She does her snarky best to resist, but in the end she still finds herself saying 'yes' to a marriage of convenience, pretending she isn't head over heels with him, and trying not to lose hope even if she knows Mykolas only sees her as a prized possession.

Sentinel ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout Review

Sentinel 
by: Jennifer L. Armentrout



⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


I always find myself completely in my feelings when I finish this book and therefore this series. 

As a reader I've gone through this long exciting and emotional journey with these characters and every thing goes down so fast. I don't know about others but for the majority of this book i was in the "no this can't be right and that can't be right" state and in the end it was but it was for the better. 


The Covenant series shows lessons of immaturity to maturity, knowing vs. understanding , want vs need , love vs in love.

This series never gets old. 

It kicks daimons butt every single time. 

So to sum it up with a sentence and a gif: 

Sentinel had me all in my emotions but its such a great book!

Apollyon ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout Review

Apollyon 
by: Jennifer L. Armentrout


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The way the plot thickens and progresses in Apollyon is beautiful. 

Our main character can't really catch a break. 

i'm always left with a sense of anxiety for her at the end of this book. 

Many things happen in this book that mess with your emotions and deepens your investment in the be all end all ending. 

The way this book ends…. I am angry. For Alex. 

What I absolutely love about this book is the way the reader experiences deeper and/or different sides of the main three characters.

Elixir ~ Jennifer L. Amrentrout Review

Elixir
by: Jennifer L. Armentrout


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Holy
Mother
of
Pearls.

Team Aiden! Legitimately for the rest of the series. 

I think I've fallen in love with him a bit myself. 

Aiden . . . sheesh I can hardly review it. 

It's was great to be inside his head and see his thought process and what he is truly feeling! 

This book FTW! 

Wish there was more of his POV.
