Time for a weekly wrap up from me! This week I wasn't reading as much as usual. I was so busy I really didn't get as much done as I would have liked. I did manage to finish two books (reviews to come tomorrow). So here's what my week looked like:
My friend and author B.C. Morin sent me an ecopy ARC of her newest novel to be released next week. I have finished it and will be putting up my review on Sunday :)
Title: Blood of the Sorcerer (The Kingdom Chronicles #2)
Author: B.C. Morin
Expected Publication Date: October 31, 2012
Love will be tested, great powers will emerge, and hearts will break over a death no one saw coming….
Princess Alannah hoped that upon her arrival in Anrad, things would begin to look up. But she comes to find that the warrior fae that she has fallen in love with is truly the Prince of Anrad and has been betrothed to another by his dying father. Isibeal, his betrothed, is beautiful, strong, and hiding a secret that Alannah is determined to reveal.
Adding to her worries, her sister Evyette has set off on a journey to uncover her increasingly mysterious past. Finally discovering who she is and where she came from, Evyette will find that some things are better left unknown. As Tristan and Kaleb help Eveytte through this discovery, she is yanked from their clutches by Samil who has volunteered her as the final sacrifice for him to remain in this realm.
Will Alannah succeed in her training at the hands of Master Jadoc, the Elder Faerie and still make it in time to join Tristan and Kaleb in stopping Samil? Will Brennus go against his dying father's last request and follow his heart?

I started this series in the hopes to get them all read before the release of The Lost Prince, but that didn't happen. I'm about 1/2 way through this one, expecting to finish this weekend.
Title: Iron Queen (Iron Fey #3)
Author: Julie Kagawa
Publication Date: January 25, 2011
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
My name is Meghan Chase.
I thought it was over. That my time with the fey, the impossible choices I had to make, the sacrifices of those I loved, was behind me. But a storm is approaching, an army of Iron fey that will drag me back, kicking and screaming. Drag me away from the banished prince who's sworn to stand by my side. Drag me into the core of conflict so powerful, I'm not sure anyone can survive it.
This time, there will be no turning back.

I started this book today on the extreme request of some of my fellow book lovers and moderators over at Never Too Old for YA Books. So far it's cute. This author will be featured on The Cover Contessa and also on Never Too Old For YA Books in November.

My best friend (the only person alive now that knows my secret) has a new boyfriend; and he has a friend. Shane Maxton: bad boy, tattooed rock god, eye candy extraordinaire. He is also New York City's most arrogant, self-serving, son of a, well, a definite one-night stand kind of a guy.
But, it doesn't matter to me because I've spent my existence looking for the love of my life, my angel. And, there is nothing that Shane Maxton can do to change that.

Finally, I am about to start this book for review and interview of the author for November. Looks like an awesome read!
Title: Blackbrooke (Part I)
Author: Emma Silver
Publication Date: July 19, 2012
Publisher: Crooked Cat Publishing
I live in Blackbrooke and you would have had to be living under a rock to never have heard of it before now. This town is different to most others…Humans aren’t the only residents…”
The residents of Blackbrooke share their town with the Creatures, or Crits as they are known. Grotesque, roaming the streets at night looking for food, their presence means humans have to live by the Rules, keeping them indoors and forbidding them of basic desires.
The most important Rule?
Don’t be a ‘walk out’!
Straight-A student, Liberty Connor, hates the Crits and the endless Rules she and her tight knit group of friends have to live by.
Planning her new life on the Outside with her boyfriend, Gabriel, Liberty whiles away her days waiting to turn 18, so they can leave and be free. That is, until the world she thinks she knows begins to unravel…
Her friends start to walk out. So she’s told. However, something’s not right. Things don’t add up.
Liberty faces a race against time to discover what’s going on with the Creatures of Blackbrooke.
Is it them she has to fear, or something much closer to home?
Blackbrooke is a Young Adult horror novel that has you on the edge of your seat
