This is a weekly MEME hosted @ Book Date where we can share what you have been, and are about to be reading over the week plus whatever else comes to mind, you may as well just add to the post. This is also a way to add to your growing TBR list 🤩 if you find anything you like.

What I finished recently:

This week I have finished only one book even though I have been on vacation from work for the past week. Though I did not read much the previous week as I was just being lazy by catching up on some of my TV Series. I have also been updating my list of all the e-books I have on my laptop, which will take me quite a long time but I also need to organize the books as I don’t have all the books saved in the correct folders. Please go check out the review of the book that I have finished recently.

What am I reading?

So I am currently reading two books. One is a eARC and the other is just a lot of short stories about Haunted Hospitals. I am also listening to some 9-1-1 (TV Series) fanfiction while at work as I cant read the books at work sadly. I don’t like the quite when I am working and sometimes I am just not in the mood for music.

Up Next:

I know I will read Market for Murder next as I am currently reading the first book of the series. I am not sure which ones will be next between the other two books below. Choice could also be changed and I might be in the mood to read a cozy mystery on kindle. We shall see what my mood will be like when I need to start a new book.

Though I am looking forward to read the below books!!

SO NOW I WANT TO KNOW WHAT ARE YOU READING??? COMMENT BELOW AND LET ME KNOW.

First Line Friday, Book Blogger Hop & Friday 56 – 08 March 2024

Published on March 8, 2024 by Ryna @ Echos Of Books3 Comments

Happy Friday & welcome to the First Line Friday meme. Hosted @ Reading Is My Superpower. Basically you pick a book, open to the first page and share a few lines of the book. Today I’m featuring Wait for you by Jennifer L. Armentrout. I have been making a list of what books I have and I have just listed this book. This is one of the books that made Jennifer my favorite authors

And the first line is….

There were two things in life that scared the ever-loving crap out of me.

Welcome to the Book Blogger Hop!

This is hosted @ Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer

Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end on Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question.

Do you use a book’s synopsis for your review?

Mmm…. Yes I usually try to use the synopsis in my reviews. I always look back at the synopsis before I start typing out the reviews.

Welcome to Friday 56…

The Friday 56 is hosted by Anne @ My Head is Full of Books while Freda @ Freda’s Voice is on hiatus.
Description: Grab a book, any book. Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader. Find any sentence, (or few, just don’t spoil it) that grabs you. Post it. And share your link. It’s that simple.

Now this weeks featured book:

“Now we’re done mapping stars.”
I sucked in a sharp breath. Our faces were inches apart and he was way too close. My gaze fell to his lips.

About the book

Some things are worth waiting for…

Traveling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago—an event that forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any attention to herself, and maybe—please God—make a few friends, because surely that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn’t need and never planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the precarious future she’s building for herself.

Some things are worth experiencing…

Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn dimple that’s just so… so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew existed.

Some things should never be kept quiet…

But when Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants silenced, she’s has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?

And some things are worth fighting for…

I am happy to say I finished three books this weekend. Which currently is a miracle with how crazy busy my life is. I also had the time to add the reviews to the blog so you should go check it out if you haven’t.

BOOK REVIEW – A Game Of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

Right now I am only reading one book because I don’t want to jump between others. I also have a busy schedule so I only have time for one book at the the time. Until I know when I can have my week of vacation I will only be able to read one book at the time.

♥ What do you think you’ll read next?

That is one hard question. I have my eye on 4 other books currently. They all look like something I would enjoy. All four are thriller so I can’t wait to read these.

Welcome to the Book Blogger Hop!

Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end on Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question.

Do you enjoy reading memoirs?

Mmm…. I normally only read fiction books. I cant think of any memoirs that I have read lately. Memoirs fall under non-fiction in my eyes and I normally only read non-fiction if I want to study a certain subject or the subject interest me. So yeah I haven’t read any Memoirs. Though if you leave a comment about good memoirs then I will go check it out and see if I like them.

Welcome to Friday 56…

Now this weeks featured book:

Daemon eyed me from a few feet away, his cheeks above the waterline and his breath blowing the occasional bubble to break the surface tension. Something in his gaze beckoned me closer.
pg. 56

Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout. One of my favorite authors and also one of the first books I have read from JLA. JLA is always one of my go to authors when I need a great book to read.

About the book

A USA Today and New York Times Bestselling Series

STARTING OVER SUCKS

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring…. until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.

AND THEN HE OPENED HIS MOUTH

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something…unexpected happens.

THE HOT ALIEN LIVING NEXT DOOR MARKS ME

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades.

IF I DON’T KILL HIM FIRST, THAT IS
