Wish me luck as I venture in to the world of contracts and legal rights!

Eighth Grade Bites - Review

Title: Eighth Grade Bites
Author: Heather Brewer
Series: The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod
Rating: 4/5 stars
Review:

Vladimir Tod isn't your normal thirteen-year-old. Instead, he's a half-vampire. Vlad's parents died when he was ten and he has no idea of the extent of his powers. The only people who know his secret are his aunt Nelly and his best friend Henry - whom he bit when they were eight. When one of his teachers mysteriously vanishes and the new substitute begins questioning him a little too much, Vlad begins to fear for his life.

You'd think after all the hype over Twilight, I'd be sick of vampire books. Well, actually I am. Except this one was actually pretty good. It was more of an action novel than a love filled vampire-romance novel. It's a little bit juvenile, but you can't expect a deep, though provoking YA vampire novel. The plot kept me interested and I was curious to see what was going to happen next throughout the novel.

I liked the characters of Vlad and Henry. The two really seemed to go well together and the playful banter and jokes added depth to their relationship. I didn't really like the way Vlad opened up to Otis near the end of the book. It seemed forced and I didn't like how trusting he was.

I can't wait to read the sequel and see what happens next. Brewer did a great job of getting her readers excited for the next book. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys YA vampire novels that don't follow the same romance plot of Twilight. (And hey, at least this one wasn't badly written.)

Have you read this book? What are your opinions on it?

Read an E-Book Week Giveaway Part 6!

Today's ebook is one I had bought from AllRomanceEbooks to giveaway! It's Dancing in the Dark by Jenna Byrnes.

Summary:
Detective Nick D'Amato has always been content with his lack-of-commitment love life. For a gay cop in the don't ask-don't tell N.Y.P.D., free and easy always seemed the least complicated route.
William, the new man in his life, has Nick rethinking his priorities. Will's perspective on life and love is different than anything Nick has ever encountered, making him that much more desirable.
The two men are compatible in every way except one, and it's a huge divider. Both are stubborn, neither willing to compromise, until a serial slasher enters their lives. A growing stack of dead bodies has the police running in circles, sending Nick and Will into a nightmare that could change their lives forever.

Read an E-Book Week Giveaway Part 5!

Read an E-Book Week is almost over! Have you guys read any good ebooks this week?

Today's ebook was donated by Aleksandr Voinov. Aleksandr is offering up his short story Spoils of War. You can read some reviews and an excerpt here.

Summary: When Achilleus, the greatest warrior who ever lived, falls before Troy (or Ilion, as it was known), Ares, God of War, stands ready to take his spirit with him to his palace. There, Ares demands that Achilleus yield to him. But can the embrace of a god and the offer of immortality make Achilleus forget his one true love, Patroklos?

Read an E-Book Week Giveaway Part 4!

Sorry for the late post, I had to have a wisdom tooth pulled today so I'm a little scatter brained. I hope everyone is enjoying Read an E-Book Week! K.P. Kincaid was kind enough to donate a copy of The Next Competitor for me to giveaway today! Unlike the previous three I've given away, this one is YA!

Summary:
It's the all-important Olympic season and eighteen-year-old American figure skater Alex Grady is discovering that there are many obstacles along the way on his quest to win a gold medal. For starters, he has to get through endless hours of practice under the watchful eye of his stern and slightly terrifying Russian coach. Then he has to contend with his all-American rival, Tanner Nielsen. Tanner has the talent, looks, poise and picture-perfect girlfriend that make him the ideal poster boy for United States figure skating. Alex has the talent and his looks aren't bad, but the filter between his brain and his mouth is missing, and he definitely doesn't have a girlfriend. He doesn't have a boyfriend either, although he finds himself thinking far too much about pairs skater Matt Savelli, which is ridiculous, since goody two-shoes Matt is totally not his type. Besides, Alex doesn't have time to worry about dating, not with the Olympics looming, right? Can he find a way to go for the gold and still remain true to himself?

Read an E-Book Week Giveaway Part 3!

Today's book was donated by Mara Ismine! I'll be giving away her story Journey to Compromise.

Note: Book is in PDF format!

Summary:
Mitch has had a bad year: his long term relationship ended, his firm went bust, and he's been drifting since then. His luck hasn’t changed for the better when he gets off the bus in a small town a few days before Christmas hoping to find some work and wait out the holidays before moving on only to find that he has arrived in a werewolf controlled town on the night before full moon. Not the best place for a shape-shifting cougar to be. Finally, against his better judgment, he rescues a young boy being abused by four werewolves in human form…

Mitch is desperate for a change in his luck, but he still has a way to travel before he finds it.

Read an E-Book Week Giveaway Part 2!

Today is the second day of Read an E-Book Week and I have another giveaway to announce! Carol Lynne was kind enough to donate a copy of one of her newer releases, "Hell Hath No Fury" for us to giveaway

Summary:
Mortals call it Hell, Lucifer calls it The City. It’s a land of good and evil, and Lu is the mayor. He didn’t ask for the job, but someone with some sense needs to keep order, and after going against Archangel Law, Lu knows he must pay the price.
Though his crime may have cost him his Heavenly home, when trouble shows up in The City, his brothers send Lu reinforcement in the guise of a good-looking bodyguard named Dominic Ramos.
Used to having any man he wants, Lu isn’t happy when his charms don’t immediately have the desired effect on Dominic. He sets out to seduce the gorgeous man using every weapon in his arsenal. When a night of unbridled passion culminates in a public coupling, Lu’s feelings on random sex are forever changed.
Who says there aren’t Angels in Hell?

Read an E-Book Week Giveaway!

Today is the first day of Read an E-Book Week! Read an E-Book Week is from March 7-13. In order to celebrate, I'm going to be giving away a couple different ebooks each day this week! To find out more about Read an E-Book week you can visit their website. On their site, you'll also find information about different booksellers that are discounting or giving away books this week!

The first giveaway book was donated by Jordan Castillo Price! Ms. Price has offered up a copy of her latest release, Hue, Tint and Shade. Hue, Tint and Shade is the first book in the Petit Morts series that she is writing with fellow author, Josh Lanyon. You can find out more about this book and read an excerpt here.

Summary taken from JCPBooks:
Asking for help can be a challenge for even the best of us, and so it’s doubly intimidating for quiet, introverted Tommy Roth. An online exchange leads to a meeting with a psychic who assures Tommy that his naturally subdued aura is to blame for his timidity. Blue and violet tones are out, and shades of yellow and red are in!
Of course it’s a bunch of baloney, and to make it worse, the intimidating shop clerk overheard the whole conversation.
Just when it seems like Tommy’s life can’t get any more dreary, a colorful character drops out of the sky. Nathan’s so vivid, he seems to good to be true. Is he?
