Saturday Synopsis

Another week gone by and now we're almost into December! I can't believe it! So here is what I've been reading this week!

I have finished with this little ARC ditty and will be posting my review soon, for the blog tour coming up, so stay tuned!

Title: Miss Fortune Cookie

Author: Lauren Bjorkman

Publication Date: November 13, 2012

Publisher: Henry Holt and Co.

Meet Erin. Smart student, great daughter, better friend. Secretly the mastermind behind the popular advice blog Miss Fortune Cookie. Totally unaware that her carefully constructed life is about to get crazy.
It all begins when her ex-best friend sends a letter to her blog—and then acts on her advice. Erin’s efforts to undo the mess will plunge her into adventure, minor felonies, and possibly her very first romance.
What’s a likely fortune for someone no longer completely in control of her fate? Hopefully nothing like: You will become a crispy noodle in the salad of life

I read this one last Saturday when Marissa Meyer put it up on Tor. I really enjoyed it and realized how much I can't wait for Scarlet to be published! I posted my review last Sunday.

Title: The Queen's Army (Lunar Chronicles #1.5)

Author: Marissa Meyer

Publication Date: November 20, 2012

Publisher: Tor

It is time. The boy must leave his family to serve in the Queen’s army. To be chosen is an honor. To decline is impossible. The boy is modified. He is trained for several years, and learns to fight to the death. He proves to the Queen -- and to himself -- that he is capable of evil. He is just the kind of soldier the Queen wants: the alpha of his pack.

I started a beta read for my friend Chris Sorenson's novel Maiden. So far it's totally awesome! I hope to have most of it read and finished by the end of the weekend. And I'm also helping my friend D'vora edit and revise her novel; giving her pointers and suggestions. Definitely too early for a beta read, but trying to be helpful.

Finally, I got my first book send to me by Harper Collins. Ok, so it's a Children's book, but you gotta start somewhere, right? It's due for release in January and there's no cover up on Goodreads yet, so I'll just post the blurb:

Title: Nancy Clancy: Secret Admirer

Author: Jane O'Conneor

Expected Publication Date: January 2, 2013

Publisher: Harper Collins Children

Love is in the air, and Nancy Clancy is sure to make the most of it!
Nancy Clancy and her best friend, Bree, have love on the brain-after all, they're learning about the human heart in science class! Nancy is determined to work out the mysteries of the heart. Doesn't a touch of romance make everything better? But when Nancy and Bree decide to take love into their own hands, it isn't quite as easy as they thought it would be. Will love conquer all?

That's about it from here. Hope you are all having a terrific weekend.
