Moving and Things

I miss my blog! I miss writing reviews and being in the world of book blogging. I am going to try to be here from time to time, we'll see how it goes.

We are going to be moving in a few weeks, and then I have three classes starting up this summer. So I'm not sure how well it will go. I know I've lost a lot of my readers because of my busy schedule causing a lot of issues with posting here. To those of you that have stuck around, thank you!

School

I hate to come back here and say this, but I really think I am going to have a hard time keeping up with this blog. I have a few reviews that need to be posted, but other than those I'm not sure how much I'll be here. Probably not much.

I just started up a Pharmacology class, and it is going to be killer. I probably won't even get through 1 book a week, it will probably be like every 2 weeks.

Stacking the Shelves {4}

Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews where everyone gets to share what books they've acquired over the last week!

Well it's been a bit since I've done one of these! Classes have kept me very busy, and will continue to do so starting again on Monday. I'm going to try my hardest to keep up with reviews, I may only be able to handle one a week until this class ends in 7 weeks.

Here's what I got!

Teaser Tuesday: A Howl For A Highlander



Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

•Grab your current read
•Open to a random page
•Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!




"Did he even know how to swim? Well, sure. He was a wolf." 
- pg. 49 of A Howl for A Highlander

Needing A Break

I really hate to say this, because everyone is doing this lately. I really need to take a break from the book blog. I have very hard classes this semester, and it's just absorbing. I don't plan on stopping blogging, but I really need to stop worrying about it so much.

With that being said, I still will post my reviews for a few books that I have scheduled to post for. I'm not sure how long this break will be for, but my guess is until the end of February when my classes end. I will still have my reviews up for tours that I'm on, and for authors that I promised reviews to.

Thanks for sticking around, if you don't I totally understand that too!

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Synopsis:

"Three levels. Two loves. One choice. Debut novelist, Lenore Appelhans has written a thrilling otherworldly young adult novel about a place that exists between our world (Level 1) and what comes after life (Level 2).

'I pause to look around the hive - all the podlike chambers are lit up as the drones shoot up on memories ... I've wanted to get out of here before, but now the tight quarters start to choke me. There has to be more to death than this.'

Felicia Ward is dead. Trapped in a stark white afterlife limbo, she spends endless days replaying memories, of her family, friends, boyfriend ... and of the guy who broke her heart. The guy who has just broken into Level 2 to find her.

Felicia learns that a rebellion is brewing, and it seems she is the key. Suspended between heaven and earth, she must make a choice. Between two worlds, two lives and two loves." -from Goodreads.com
