Stacking the Shelves #31

 

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. If you’re anything like me, you are probably hoarding books and even though you are excited about your latest book arrival, it might be a while before you get to review it. Just so you know it started over @ Tynga's Reviews.

Synopsis:

My name is Lily Gilmore, and I was supposed to be getting married today. That was until I found my fiancé having sex with my sister in the church moments before I was supposed to walk down the aisle. I grew up with a father who was a womanizer and cheated on my mother every moment he had the chance. He would even stoop as low as to take me and my sister with him on his trysts when we were younger. Cheating was all I grew up with, and I vowed never to live the life my mother did. After finding my fiancé and my sister together, I moved from Seattle to Santa Monica to start a new life of independence and to focus on my passion for photography, man-free.

My name is Luke Matthews. About a year ago, I lost the love of my life, my fiancé, in a tragic car accident. There are no words that can describe how I’ve felt the past year. My life and all my dreams had died with her in the accident. I exist, and I play my guitar to try and ease the pain. My love was taken away, and I will never get that back.

What happens when the lives of two people who no longer believe in love are suddenly changed by fate?

Waiting on Wednesday #31

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, started @ Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

 

 

 

Synopsis:

 

One kiss could be the last.

Seventeen-year-old Layla just wants to be normal. But with a kiss that kills anything with a soul, she's anything but normal. Half demon, half gargoyle, Layla has abilities no one else possesses.

Raised among the Wardens—a race of gargoyles tasked with hunting demons and keeping humanity safe—Layla tries to fit in, but that means hiding her own dark side from those she loves the most. Especially Zayne, the swoon-worthy, incredibly gorgeous and completely off-limits Warden she's crushed on since forever.

Then she meets Roth—a tattooed, sinfully hot demon who claims to know all her secrets. Layla knows she should stay away, but she's not sure she wants to—especially when that whole no-kissing thing isn't an issue, considering Roth has no soul.

But when Layla discovers she's the reason for the violent demon uprising, trusting Roth could not only ruin her chances with Zayne…it could brand her a traitor to her family. Worse yet, it could become a one-way ticket to the end of the world.

 

That's what I can't wait for. Now what are you waiting for? Have you guys entered my Origin giveaway? No? Well seriously, what are you waiting for? Shoo! Go enter so I can spend money on you. Bye-bye. Au revoir. Adios. You gone yet?

The Tables Have Turned

Okay, so yesterday I was checking Twitter and I saw a tweet from @ReadersDotCom. They had tagged me in a tweet saying

What's on Your Nightstand? We asked @KaciiEpicness and she told us: ow.ly/oBe7L

 Now a couple of months ago someone from Readers.com asked me to do a spotlight for them. I thought, sure, why not? And I had fun doing it. But I had no idea when they were going to put the spotlight on their blog (part of their overall website). So on September 4th they posted the spotlight on their blog and on the 5th they Tweeted to me about it.

You can imagine how psyched I am. I mean, I've done author spotlights, but that was me focusing on the author. This spotlight was about ME. And my book picks for the summer. I thought that was so exciting. Here's some examples of how I'm feeling, and (knowing me) what I look like right now.

 

 

I think it's a really cool idea to ask people who love books so incredibly to pick a few and share why their so amazing. You can ask anyone in the world about books, and I'm sure you'll get a variety of answers. But asking someone who loves books to pieces is awesome. And I'm not the only one who has been in the spotlight with this. Check out the Readers.com blog and look for What's on My Nightstand.

Never stop reading,


Kacii
