Recommendations

Hi Everyone.

It's a few weeks ago but I got no inspiration to do something with this blog. I am sooo sorry. It has nothing to do with you guys. Maybe it is because I am very busy the last few weeks.

But now I am here, and with a quistion.
I think I am a spoiled girl/woman when it comes to books. Because the last book that I really really enjoyed was a long time ago :( Don't get me wrong, because the books I read the last couple of weeks where fine. But not Awesome.
Can someone recommend me a book/serie that looks like the books by patricia briggs or darynda jones? Because I really love those authors. They are sooo awesome and there stories are even more awesome. LOl.

I hope someone can help me.

Look what I got :D


My new bookcase! 

I love it. I bought it with my birthday money and one of my neighbours was very excited to come with me to the IKEA to pick this up. I didn't know he never was to the IKEA before so it was a long day. But I got my bookcase!! There are a lot of books at a friends house so it looks like I don't have a lot of books, and some of you got a lot more books than I have. But that's not the point. 
I am sooo happy with my new bookcase and wanted to share this picture with you. 

Hope you al have a great day!!!

STS



Already time for a new STS. This meme is hosted by Tynga  just check out her blog and see what the rules are in this meme. 

I really thought that I still didn't got to show you any books this week. But when I was shopping yesterday with some friends I saw a book outlet!! OMG!! That is such an amazing thing for book lovers! But when I was looking in this store I thought there weren't any books I would read. Lots of books about religion, autobiographics and books for schools. But, when I was almost done I saw one small book shelve with fantasy books. So I was looking for any book that looks good. And I found 2 books. 



So when I saw these books I could not let them stay there. Especially when they where 1 Euro per book. 
Love those prices but I got one baby small problem. The didn't got the first book in this serie. But I already bought it on ebay. So when he arrives I can start reading them. :)

Did you guys got some great books this week? 
Have a nice weekend!

STS


Stacking the Shelves is a meme hosted by Tynga . Just click on her name to learn about this meme. :)

You think I have enough books to read in one lifetime. But just like everybody else that is not true. My to read list is maybe one for one lifetime, but I also doubt that as well.
So the point is. You have never to many books ;) And that's why I gave my self some new one. Also because I wanted the first of a serie. This serie I bought a few weeks ago but I find out that I bought the 2, 3 and 4 of this serie. 



So I bought (second hand) Glasshouses by Rachel Caine. I am not really happy with the condition of this book, but you never know this when you bought it second hands.

Oke, I didn't know that the books that I bought would be so soon at my house so I borrowed a book from a friend of mine. It's a stand alone book so I don't need to read a nother and a nother one before I can start with my own books :) It's Clockwork Heart by Dru Pagliassotti. I hope it is a great book. Do you know this one?

Okay, and now my next two books. I just read Street Magic and find out that I didn't had the sequel. So I just needed it because I want to know if I like this serie ( I don't know yet, the first one sounds great but I was a lot distracted when I was reading it). That's why I bought Demon Bound by Caitlin Kittredge.

And the last one, Succubus Blues by Richelle Mead. Why did I bought this one? Because I am very curious about this book. I heard great things about this one. :) Hope they are true.

What did you got on your shelve this week?
Want to share it with me?

Have a nice weekend!!

Time for another Feature and Follow Friday. This meme is hosted by Parajunkie and Alison can read



Q. What is your preffered reading format? Hardcover, eBooks, Paperback etc?

A: I would prefer books in it's original form, so in papers. And I don't mind if it is a paperback or a hardcover. Just love to collect them and love to put them at my bookshelf. My friends also love it. :) Not that that is the reason that I love the books in this format. But everytime my friends visit me they are looking at my bookshelf and saying that I really nead a big bookcase. And I am saving money to buy a big one from the Ikea. Do you know those big bookcases? Let me show them to you. 

That's the one that wil be in my house when I got the money to buy it. So when the time is there, I will show this bookcase filled with all my books :)


Okay, that is it for me today. If you would like to tell my what format you preffer, you are always welcome to tell me :)

Have a nice friday everyone!

My own Mr. Darcy cover reveal













After being dragged to the 2005 movie Pride and Prejudice by her mother, sixteen-year-old Elizabeth’s life changes when Matthew Macfadyen’s Mr. Darcy appears on the screen. Lizzie falls hard and makes a promise to herself that she will settle for nothing less than her own Mr. Darcy. This ill-advised pledge threatens to ruin any chance of finding true love. During the six intervening years, she has refused to give any interested suitors a chance. They weren’t Mr. Darcy enough.



Coerced by her roommate, Elizabeth agrees to give the next interested guy ten dates before she dumps him. That guy is Chad, a kind and thoughtful science teacher and swim coach. While she’s dating Chad, her dream comes true in the form of a wealthy bookstore owner named Matt Dawson, who looks and acts like her Mr. Darcy. Of course she has to follow her dream. But as Elizabeth simultaneously dates a regular guy and the dazzling Mr. Dawson, she’s forced to re-evaluate what it was she loved about Mr. Darcy in the first place.

Excerpt 1

Janessa folded her arms and looked at me for so long I started to
squirm. “What?”

“I wish you’d look at yourself. You’re ruining your life with this stupid
obsession.”
“I’m not obsessed.” I stood up quickly, nearly tipping my chair over. I
rinsed my plate and put it in the dishwasher. I could feel Janessa’s eyes on me
the entire time, but I refused to look at her. “And just because I’m not
interested in this guy doesn’t mean my life is ruined.”
“Let me guess. Was he blond?”
“Knock it off.”
“Too short?”
“He wasn’t short. I’ve got to go.” I left the kitchen with Janessa on my
heels.
“Was he too cheerful?”
“Oh brother. I’m not having this conversation with you.”
Janessa grabbed my arm and turned me toward her. “Yes, you are.”
“I’m going to be late for work.”
“Then we’d better talk fast.”
“I don’t have anything to say,” I said.
“Then I’ll talk. You listen. You have to start giving these guys a
chance.”
I folded my arms tightly. “I give them a chance.”
“You give them one date, two at the most. But you’re not really giving
them a chance because your mind’s already made up before you even go out.”
I was getting annoyed. “I don’t have time for this conversation again.”
Janessa was practically reciting word for word what she’d said after my last
date. And the one before that.
“Lizzie. If you don’t want to have the same conversation, do something
different. Shake things up a little.” She smiled and did a little shimmy. I
refused to smile no matter how silly she looked.
“How do you suggest I do that?”
“If this guy… What’s his name?”
“Chad.”
“If Chad calls you back, go out with him again.”
“I don’t see the point.”
“Did you get a serial killer vibe from him?”
“No, I got a nice-guy-that-doesn’t-deserve-to-be-led-on vibe from him.”
“Nice guys are good. So you’ll say yes, right?”
“If I’m not interested, it wouldn’t be fair to say yes.”
“Oh knock off the baloney. You haven’t been fair to a guy since high
school. You’re just afraid if you get to know a guy, you might like him. And
wouldn’t that be awful? Was Chad funny?”
“Yes, he was funny.”
“Handsome?”
I sighed. “I don’t know if I’d call him handsome, but he was cute.”
“Cute is good. Especially if he was funny. So go out with him again.”
“You act like it’s all up to me.” I walked to the closet and collected
my purse. Like a tiger leaping on her prey, Janessa pounced at the bowl on the
entry table and grabbed my car keys. “This isn’t funny, Janessa. I’m going to
be late for work.”
“Then let’s make a deal. You agree to go out with him ten times before
you toss him aside and I’ll give you your keys.”
“Ten times? No way.”
“That’ll give you time to get to know him.”
“You’ve got to be kidding.”
“I’m serious, Lizzie. Ten is a good number. In that amount of time, you
can make a real decision. Instead of one based on a stupid movie.”
Now Janessa was skipping through a minefield. “It’s not a stupid movie
and I’ve got to go.”
“It’s the stupidest movie in the world if it ruins your life.”
“Nothing’s ruining my life and I’m going to be late. Give me my keys and
we’ll talk about this later.” A little tussle ensued as I tried to rescue my
keys from her clutches. I almost had them when she darted to the bathroom and
shut the door hard and fast, locking it behind her. “This is real mature.”
“I don’t care about mature. You’re my best friend, Lizzie.  I love
you and I’m trying to save you from yourself.”
I banged on the door. “Give me the keys. Now.” My voice had become
shrieky.
“I’ll give you the keys as soon as you promise you’ll go out with him
ten times.”
“I doubt he’ll ask me out again.”
“Why? Were you a jerk?”
“No.”
“Are you sure?”
I hesitated, knowing I hadn’t been very good company. “I’m pretty sure.”
“If he doesn’t ask you out, you have to ask him.”
“No way am I asking out a guy ten times. No way!”
“You just have to ask him out once. If he doesn’t return the favor you
can move on. But you have to be nice to him and give him a reason to want to
ask you out again.”
“This is the dumbest idea you’ve ever had.”
“Listen Liz, I’m doing this for you. Give a guy a chance before you give
him the old heave-ho.”
I leaned my head on the door. “Just give me the keys. Please.” Now I was
whining.
“You’re the one keeping yourself from your keys. And probably true
love.”
I looked at my watch. Now I’d have to risk a speeding ticket or get to
work five minutes late. I wasn’t sure which was worse—a ticket from a police
officer or a tongue-lashing from Delia.
“Fine. I’ll go out with him again if he asks me.”
“And?”
“If he doesn’t ask me, I’ll ask him?”
“Right. And how many times will you go out with him?”
“Way too many,” I said under my breath.
“I can’t hear you.”
“Ten times. If he asks me.”
The door cracked open. “And you’ll be nice to him?”
“Whatever you say. Now give me the keys.”
Janessa emerged from the bathroom and triumphantly dropped my keys into
my outstretched hand.
“You’re an idiot,” I said.
“An idiot that loves you and wants you to be happy,” she said. She
turned and headed down the hall. “Someday you’ll thank me,” she sang.
“If I don’t kill you first.” I slammed the door behind me.



Excerpt 2

It was a busy Monday morning.
I was looking out at the line of waiting customers when he walked in. I gasped,
shut my thumb in my cash drawer, and then tried not to cry while Mr. Sandoval
from a hearing aid store asked me if I was okay.
When I finished Mr. Sandoval’s
transaction, I looked at him again. He was taller than anyone in the room. Of
course. His hair was dark and a little disheveled. It was hard to see from
where I was, but his eyes looked like they were blue. And best of all, he
didn’t smile. He looked gorgeously unpleasant and impatient. He looked around
the room and his eyes met mine. Still he didn’t smile. My heart was racing. He
looked perfect.
I did my best to time it so I’d be
his teller. I went a little too fast with one customer and accidentally shorted
her a twenty dollar bill. I tried to concentrate as I corrected the
transaction. I slowed way down on the next customer, but just when I thought I
was finished and would be able to help him next, my customer asked me to break
a ten into change. He walked up to Courtney’s window while I counted out
nickels and dimes. Furious, I stomped my foot. Not too loudly but enough to
release a little of my frustration.
I listened closely as Courtney helped
him to see if I could learn anything, but he hardly spoke. He gave a terse nod
when Courtney thanked him for coming in and turned on his heel and left. He had
excellent posture and a nice, confident stride.
I finished with my customer, and then
before anyone else could step forward, I picked up the phone and dialed
Courtney’s extension. She glanced at her phone’s display and looked over at me
curiously.

            “Who was
that?” I whispered when she picked up the receiver.
“Elizabeth, look how many customers
there are.”
“I know. Just tell me who that was.”
I watched as Courtney picked up her last transaction slip.
“His name is Matt Dawson.”
“Is he married?”
“I have no idea,” Courtney said.
“Was he wearing a ring?”
“I didn’t look. What’s going on,
Lizzie?”
“I just need to know about him.”
“Well, I don’t know anything about
him and Delia’s watching us. I’ve gotta go.”
Matt Dawson. Matt. Matthew. Like
Matthew Macfadyen. Dawson. It was pretty close to Darcy. The only way it could
be better is if his name was Fitzwilliam but I’d never met a Fitzwilliam in my
life.
Matt Dawson.
This had to be a sign.

Top Ten Tuesday #2

Hi everyone!!

Today I stay at home because I am really sick (hate this summer a week ago it was 33 degrees and now it is 14 degrees), so I am trying to make a blogpost because I hate staying in bed for to long, even when I am sick.
So I saw this meme Top Ten Tuesday and I thought, why wouldn't I participate in this. It's my second time I am participating in this meme.

Okay, this weeks list is:

Top Ten Books I've Read So Far In 2013

1
Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet by Darinda Jones
Welcome to the world of grim reaper extraordinaire, Charley Davidson. Try as she might, there's no avoiding her destiny.

Sometimes being the grim reaper really is, well, "grim." And since Charley's last case went so awry, she has taken a couple of months off to wallow in the wonders of self-pity. But when a woman shows up on her doorstep convinced someone is trying to kill her, Charley has to force herself to rise above . . . or at least get dressed. It becomes clear something is amiss when everyone the woman knows swears she's insane. But the more they refute the woman's story, the more Charley believes it.

In the meantime, the sexy, sultry son of Satan, Reyes Farrow, is out of prison and out of Charley's life, as per her wishes and several perfectly timed death threats. But his absence has put a serious crimp in her sex life. While there are other things to consider, like the fact that the city of Albuquerque has been taken hostage by an arsonist, Charley is having a difficult time staying away. Especially when it looks like Reyes may be involved.

Just when life was returning to normal, Charley is thrust back into the world of crime, punishment, and the devil in blue jeans in this hilarious fourth installment in the "New York Times "bestselling series from Darynda Jones.

City of Ghosts by Stacia Kane
IT’S A THIN LINE BETWEEN ALIVE AND UNDEAD.

Chess Putnam has a lot on her plate. Mangled human corpses have started to show up on the streets of Downside, and Chess’s bosses at the Church of Real Truth have ordered her to team up with the ultra-powerful Black Squad agency to crack the grisly case.

Chess is under a binding spell that threatens death if she talks about the investigation, but the city’s most notorious crime boss—and Chess’s drug dealer—gets wind of her new assignment and insists on being kept informed. If that isn’t bad enough, a sinister street vendor appears to have information Chess needs. Only he’s not telling what he knows, or what it all has to do with the vast underground City of Eternity.

Now Chess will have to navigate killer wraiths, First Elders, and a lot of seriously nasty magic—all while coping with some not-so-small issues of her own. And the only man Chess can trust to help her through it all has every reason to want her dead.

Mortmain needs only one last item to complete his plan. He needs Tessa. And Jem and Will, the boys who lay equal claim to Tessa's heart, will do anything to save her.

Magic Slays by Ilona Andrews
Plagued by a war between magic and technology, Atlanta has never been so deadly. Good thing Kate Daniels is on the job.

Kate Daniels may have quit the Order of Merciful Aid, but she’s still knee-deep in paranormal problems. Or she would be if she could get someone to hire her. Starting her own business has been more challenging than she thought it would be—now that the Order is disparaging her good name, and many potential clients are afraid of getting on the bad side of the Beast Lord, who just happens to be Kate’s mate.

So when Atlanta’s premier Master of the Dead calls to ask for help with a vampire on the loose, Kate leaps at the chance of some paying work. Turns out this is not an isolated incident, and Kate needs to get to the bottom of it—fast, or the city and everyone dear to her might pay the ultimate price . . .

6
Insurgent by Veronica Roth
One choice can transform you, or destroy you. Every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves, and herself, while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.


7
The Girl in the Clockwork Collar by Kady Cross
In New York City, 1897, life has never been more thrilling-or dangerous Finley Jayne and her "straynge band of mysfits" have journeyed from London to America to rescue their friend Jasper from the clutches of a devious criminal demanding a trade-the dangerous device Jasper stole from him...for the life of the girl Jasper loves.

From the rough streets of lower Manhattan to elegant Fifth Avenue, the motley crew of teens follows Jasper's elusive trail. And they're about to discover how far they'll go for friendship. More than ever, Finley must rely on powerful English duke Griffin King to balance her dark magic with her good side. Yet Griffin is at war with himself over his secret attraction to Finley...and will risk his life and reputation to save her. Now, to help those she's come to care for so deeply, Finley must infiltrate the criminal gang. Only problem is, she might like the dark side a little too much...

8
Fire Study by Maria V. Snyder
The apprenticeship is over—now the real test has begun.

When word that Yelena is a Soulfinder—able to capture and release souls—spreads like wildfire, people grow uneasy. Already Yelena's unusual abilities and past have set her apart. As the Council debates Yelena's fate, she receives a disturbing message: a plot is rising against her homeland, led by a murderous sorcerer she has defeated before....

Honor sets Yelena on a path that will test the limits of her skills, and the hope of reuniting with her beloved spurs her onward. Her journey is fraught with allies, enemies, lovers and would-be assassins, each of questionable loyalty. Yelena will have but one chance to prove herself—and save the land she holds dear.

9
Biting Cold by Chloe Neill
Turned into a vampire against her will, twenty-eight-year-old Merit found her way into the dark circle of Chicago’s vampire underground, where she learned there was more to supernaturals than met the eye—and more supernaturals than the public ever imagined.And not all the secrets she learned were for sharing—among humans or inhumans. Now Merit is on the hunt, charging across the stark American Midwest, tailing a rogue supernatural intent on stealing an ancient artifact that could unleash catastrophic evil on the world. But Merit is also the prey. An enemy of Chicagoland is hunting her, and he’ll stop at nothing to get the book for himself. No mercy allowed.

No rules apply. No lives spared. The race is on.



10
Daemon's Mark by Caitlin Kittredge
When the Dubois investigation turns up an unexpected connection to the Russian mob, Luna finds herself heading down a terrifying path of no return. Soon she is held captive by the very evil she hunts—one that reaches far across the borders of Nocturne City to the seedy brothels of Europe and beyond. Now, with street smarts, seduction, and a sixth-sense for danger as her only weapons, Luna will enlist the help of her former lover Dmitri—who has his own reasons for bringing down this crime ring—and risk it all in the ultimate showdown.

My first....(STS)

*Sorry for this long post*


....Book festival!!! And I loved it :) From the moment Stephanie told me about it I couldn't wait anymore. So I was preparing my self and was looking on goodreads which books I really want and so I was making my self some lists. Let me show it to you:








So...those lists where finished and I got more than 21 days to wait, or was it a month? Oh my god, it was toooo long. And today was the day. A very good friend of mine was joining me on this book festival:

Me and my friend Melanie impatiently waiting till it opens and whe can go shopping!! LOL. Really, two woman, 28 and 37 and we where just as happy as two kids in a kids store. I am very happy that we are living some where else because whe where a little bit to enthusiastic. It could help that we both got adhd. But I think it also could be the preparing and the talking about it and everything.

And when we where inside it wasn't what I expected :( Maybe I was making my self to enthusiastic because I saw al those awesome pictures of your book events in america and everywhere. But it was a little bit small and al those books where laying everywhere. Mr. Darcy and some fantasy book next to each other. And when I was looking for a book in a serie the other book was on the other side of the building. And not one of my books on my wishlist where there. That was a shock. But I got some very nice books. And it was fun, looking true great books but it wasn't what I expected.

Here some photo's of the books I got today
I also want to show these books on STS this meme is hosted by Tynga:














And because I didn't get to buy any of my series I really love to read I think I would treat my self on 1 of those. :) Hope you got your self some great books as well this week. Want to show them to me?
