Review: Wildcat

Wildcat by J.P. Harker
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

*I received a copy from the author for review. This in no way effect on my review.*

Rhianwyn of the Caderyn is conflicted about giving up a warrior’s life to become a wife and mother, but her love for her new husband is enough to at least make her consider it. However, with the conquering Gaians moving ever closer to her homeland a peaceful life may no longer be an option, for Rhia or for any of her people. With rival tribes, old suitors, and the dangerous General Lepidus to contend with, Rhia soon finds her new family in unprecedented danger, and her choices now must be about more than just herself...

Wildcat takes place in a fantasy land inspired by Iron Age Britain and follows Rhianwyn's story as she encounters a civilization unlike any she could imagine, and is constantly forced to learn and adapt through trial after deadly trial.

Surrounded by the sea, Ruka starts to see glimpses of the past that help her understand how Umi, Sora, Jim and Anglade all came to be connected.

The TBR Book Tag

How do you keep track of your TBR pile?

Goodreads is where I list all the books I plan to read...and those that I want to read if I ever get time XD I also keep a stack of books by my bed, and a list on my kindle for books I plan to read next. Because I read a lot of library books, I also try to read them in the order I get them, so that is another way I keep up with what to read next.

Is your TBR pile mostly print or e-book?

Ah...haha well I have a TON of both to read, but I'm sure I have twice the number of ebooks, since I get so many from authors and on sale.

A book that’s been on your TBR the longest?

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis. I read all the other Narnia books, but haven't gotten around to reading this one yet. When I started, I just read the ones without movies, and so skipped this one. Since Narnia was the first book/series ever on my TBR I really need to read this XD

A book you recently added to your TBR pile?

My latest TBR add was this one. I found it scrolling through my Goodreads updates. The cover is stunning, and the blurb sounds really good!

Bartender Jason Bishop's world is shattered when his estranged father Daniel seemingly commits suicide, but the greater shock comes when he learns his father was a secret agent in the employ of the Invisible Hand; an ancient society of spies wielding magic in a centuries-spanning war. Now the Golden Dawn; the shadowy cabal of witches and warlocks responsible for Daniel Bishop's murder, and the death of Jason's mother years before, have Jason in their sights. His survival will depend on mastering his own dormant magic abilities; provided he makes it through the training.

From New York, to Paris, to worlds between worlds, Jason's journey through the realm of magic will be fraught with peril. But with enemies and allies on both sides of this war, whom can he trust? The Invisible Hand, who've been more of a family than his own family ever was? The Golden Dawn, who may know the secrets behind his mysterious lineage? For Jason Bishop, only one thing is for certain; the magic he has slowly been mastering is telling him not to trust anybody.

A book in your TBR pile strictly because of its beautiful cover?

While maybe not beautiful, I love this amazing cover! It was a total cover buy, and while I haven't gotten around to reading it, I am excited to see how it is!

A book on your TBR pile that you plan on never reading?

I...don't think I have any. I remove books off my TBR if I don't want to ever read them, as that defeats the purpose of a TBR for me. I only add books I would like to eventually read, and while there are some I'm in no hurry to read, I still plan to read them one day.

One that was on my TBR that I no longer have any desire to read are Cassandra Clair's Shadow Hunter books. I'll read her other works, but have no desire to read any of her main works.

An unpublished book on your TBR you’re excited for?

Tower of Dawn by Sarah J. Maas. Yes, I know—I'm a minority but I'm just excited to get that much more time in the ToG universe! While I wasn't crazy with Chaol after CoM he has since redeemed himself in my eyes, and I look forward to seeing him and other characters from this amazing world!

A book on your TBR pile that everyone’s read but you?

Yes I know, the shame! I was only ever banned from reading two books/series growing up. Twilight and Harry Potter. Odd, since it was for religious reasons, and my mom knew I loved mythology and fantasy (so magic!) but these two were on her "No-no" list. I was talked into reading Twilight by some people I hung out with, but never got around to HP. That's something I hope to fix soon, now that I'm out of their house.

A book on your TBR everyone recommends to you?

Most of my YA choices? XD But to pick one...




As I said, I have quite a few YA and fantasy titles that I hear about all the time, but this is one that I hear about a lot, and am really excited about!

A book on your TBR you’re dying to read?

All of them? (Well most at least! XD) I'm pretty excited about Harry Potter, and Shatter Me, but other books...



I only realized one of my favorite movies was first a book earlier this year, and I can't wait to read it! I love Howl's Moving Castle, and it's my favorite Studio Ghibli movie. (Spirited Away is my second favorite.)

How many books are on your Goodreads TBR shelf?

Don't go there... haha Right now? 5,284

How many books are on your TBR pile?

Physical books? 236 plus whatever is on my Kindle.

Promo Blitz: Taking Chances

Welcome to my stop on the Taking Chances blitz hosted by RABT Book Tours!

Contemporary Romance

Date Published: 20 June, 2017

Publisher: Carolina Blue Publishing

Katie Fitzgerald learned the hard way about love. She vowed to never get involved with a doctor at work, and when she did, he broke her heart. Older and wiser, Katie is serious about never getting hurt again. Dr. Flynn Reynolds, staff cardiologist at Windsor Falls Memorial, just might be the man to change her mind. Attraction explodes between the two from their very first meeting. But Katie is determined to protect her heart. Will Flynn 

convince her to take another chance?

 Excerpt

Katie's fair skin flamed. "I do not like him. I'd have sex with him in a heartbeat, but I don’t like him."

"Interesting. I'm not sure whether to be insulted or turned on."

Katie closed her eyes again. She wished the earth would open and swallow her whole. But even in her alcohol induced haze, she knew she wouldn't be that lucky.

"What makes you think we were talking about you? You're not the only man here." Still no sign of the floor shifting. Drat! She could use a little help from the universe about now.

“Well, you were sitting between Quinn and me. I had a fifty-fifty shot."

Katie opened her eyes and glared at Flynn. A devilish grin lit up his handsome face. The worst part was that everything she had said was true. But Flynn didn’t need to know that.

Mustering as much dignity as she could, Katie stood up. She wobbled a bit but didn’t fall. "Whatever. I'm assuming you've looked in a mirror, Flynn. You know you’re hot. Every woman at Windsor Falls Regional has a crush on you for goodness sake."

"I never noticed."

She scoffed. “Right. I must have imagined the flirting with everyone with a pulse then.” After smoothing a hand down her dress, Katie grabbed her purse. "I think I'll be heading upstairs now. I need a nap." She walked away, head held high and thankful for a graceful exit. Which was a great plan until she stumbled on her flip flops. She would have sprawled on the ground if Flynn hadn’t been there to catch her. With one strong arm around her waist, he scooped her up and tossed her over his shoulder in a fireman lift.

Kimberley O’Malley is a recent transplant to Charlotte, North Carolina from the frozen North. She is learning to say y’all but draws the line at sweet tea. Sarcasm is an art form in her world. When not writing, she is a full-time nurse and part-time soccer Mom, but not necessarily in that order. She shares her life with an amazing husband of more than twenty years, two teenagers, and one very sweet Shetland Sheepdog, Molly.

My Monday #8

Well, I only went to the library twice last week, and only managed to finish one book this weekend. I spent the weekend with my mom and family, so I didn't get much done, but I was glad spend some much needed time with her and my little brother and sister. My stepdad was also in a good mood, so I had a good time.

I just got home today, so I also missed posting my Sunday's Spotlight, but will make it up next week 😉

I had a great visit with my new dr. (who I was glad to find out is both a woman, and Christian,) so I think I'm going to stick with her! She changed one of my meds, and I already feel a lot better, and she is talking about using a food supplement in place of my other med to avoid some health risks, so I'm looking forward to getting that worked out.

I also got a reply from my penpal, and will mail out my reply tomorrow, as well as going to the library since I didn't go today.

I also have ideas for two new candles that I hope to get started on when I get paid again, so if you are interested in any of my candles, and shop updates, feel free to follow my Instagram @tangentadventures

Blog Tour: The Last Gambit

Welcome to my stop on the Last Gambit blog tour, hosted by YA Bound Book Tours

The Last Gambi
by Om Swami
Genre: YA Coming of Age
Release Date: February 2017
Harper Element (Harper Collins)

Summary:

Success by design is infinitely better than a win by chance. Vasu Bhatt is fourteen years old when a mysterious old man spots him at a chess tournament and offers to coach him, on two simple but strange conditions: he would not accompany his student to tournaments, and there was to be no digging into his past. Initially resentful, Vasu begins to gradually understand his master’s mettle.

Over eight years, master and student come to love and respect each other, but the two conditions remain unbroken – until Vasu confronts and provokes the old man. Meanwhile, their hard work and strategy pay off: Vasu qualifies for the world chess championship. But can he make it all the way without his master by his side?

Inspiring, moving and mercurial, The Last Gambit is a beautiful coming of age tale in a uniquely Indian context.

Review: A wonderful story about mentor and student. When Vasu qualifies for the biggest chess competition, he learns things about himself, his mentor, and chess! Well written, this story is a great read!

 The Dragons of Nova (Loom Saga #2)
by Elise Kova
Publication Date:  July 11, 2017
Publisher:  Keymaster Press

Cvareh returns home to his sky world of Nova with the genius crafter Arianna as his temperamental guest. The mercurial inventor possesses all the Xin family needs to turn the tides of a centuries-old power struggle, but the secrets she harbors must be earned with trust — hard to come by for Ari, especially when it comes to Dragons. On Nova, Ari finds herself closer to exacting vengeance against the traitor who killed everything — and everyone – she once loved. But before Ari can complete her campaign of revenge, the Crimson Court exposes her shadowed past and reveals something even more dangerous sparking between her and Cvareh.

While Nova is embroiled in blood sport and political games, the rebels on Loom prepare for an all-out assault on their Dragon oppressors. Florence unexpectedly finds herself at the forefront of change, as her unique blend of skills — and quick-shooting accuracy — makes her a force to be reckoned with. For the future of her world, she vows vengeance against the Dragons.
Before the rebellion can rise, though, the Guilds must fall.

Review: So good! I loved the first book, but this one it just as good! I loved the characters and the world, and the writing style grabbed me from the start! I can't get enough of this series, am excited to see what happens next! This series has to much potential, and keeps getting better! The plot and characters are both well written, and the action keeps things interesting!

Elise Kova has always had a profound love of fantastical worlds. Somehow, she managed to focus on the real world long enough to graduate with a Master’s in Business Administration before crawling back under her favorite writing blanket to conceptualize her next magic system. She currently lives in St. Petersburg, Florida, and when she is not writing can be found playing video games, watching anime, or talking with readers on social media. She is the USA Today bestselling author of the Air Awakens Series as well as the Loom Saga.

Review: Children of the Sea, Volume 2

Children of the Sea, Volume 2 by Daisuke Igarashi
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The sea has a story to tell you, one you’ve never heard before… Umi and Sora are not alone in their strange connection to the sea. Forty years ago, Jim met another young boy with the same powers. As penance for letting the boy die, Jim has been searching the world for other children with those same ties to the ocean. Anglade, a wunderkind who was once Jim's research partner, lures Sora away with the promise of answers. This leaves Umi severely depressed, and it is up to Ruka to help her new friend find his brother. But time is quickly running out... When Ruka was younger, she saw a ghost in the water at the aquarium where her dad works. Now she feels drawn toward the aquarium and the two mysterious boys she meets there, Umi and Sora. They were raised by dugongs and hear the same strange calls from the sea that she does. Ruka’s dad and the other adults who work at the aquarium are only distantly aware of what the children are experiencing as they get caught up in the mystery of the worldwide disappearance of the ocean’s fish.

My Monday #7

I already want this week to be over...but here goes.

I went to the library today and picked up some manga XD So I should have some reviews coming up soon! I also have a few library books from before that I am working my way though.

I do to my new psychiatrist tomorrow, which I dread, but I'm hoping he listens and is able to help me, since my meds haven't been working as well as they should be...ugh. But I have had a few good days, so here's hoping that I get to feeling better soon!

I also got my order from BookOutlet, and a few books for review! (Yay! #bookmail!)

That's really all that's happened in the last week. I get to see my mom tomorrow, and it's been a few weeks, so I'm happy about that, otherwise it's a pretty slow week.

Oh! I did get approved for an ARC of Girls Made of Snow and Glass which I'm excited about, along with some books from Penguin's First to Read <3

And I got my first letter from my Litsy Penpal! It's so much fun, and I signed up for a few more, and a bookish gift exchange so I'll have to share more about that as time goes on! 

Thank you again for reading, hopefully I'll have more fun stuff to share next week!

Seven o’clock on a Monday morning, five hundred years after the end of the world, and goblins had been at the cellar again. . . . Not that anyone would admit it was goblins. In Maddy Smith’s world, order rules. Chaos, old gods, fairies, goblins, magic, glamours–all of these were supposedly vanquished centuries ago. But Maddy knows that a small bit of magic has survived. The “ruinmark” she was born with on her palm proves it–and makes the other villagers fearful that she is a witch (though helpful in dealing with the goblins-in-the-cellar problem). But the mysterious traveler One-Eye sees Maddy’s mark not as a defect, but as a destiny. And Maddy will need every scrap of forbidden magic One-Eye can teach her if she is to survive that destiny.

Review: Gregor the Overlander

Gregor the Overlander by Suzanne Collins
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This world is on the brink of war, and Gregor's arrival is no accident. A prophecy foretells that Gregor has a role to play in the Underland's uncertain future. Gregor wants no part of it -- until he realizes it's the only way to solve the mystery of his father's disappearance.

Review: The Tavern

The Tavern by Burbuqe Raufi
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I received an ecopy from the author in exchange for my honest, unbiased review.

The story of Nina and Eddy is taking place on a single day, in the tavern. They share the same truth and they both make an important decision which leads Nina into a great danger.

This was an interesting read, and unlike the books I normally read. Dealing with death, loss, and suffering, it's a heavy read. Though it's short, it is an intense and thought provoking read. While I don't agree with the idea of 'nothingness', I did enjoy seeing someone else's opinions on the matter.
