Review: Eleanor and Grey by Brittainy C. Cherry

Eleanor & Grey, an all-new beautiful and emotional standalone from Brittainy C. Cherry is available now! Greyson East left his mark on me. As the young girl who first fell for him, I didn’t know much about life. I did know about his smiles, though, and his laughs, and the strange way my stomach flipped when he was near. Life was perfect…until it wasn’t, and when we were forced to go our separate ways, I held on to our memories, let go of my first crush, and wished for the day I’d find him again. When my wish came true, it was nothing like I imagined. I couldn’t have known when I took the nanny position that it would be his children I looked after, that my new boss would be that boy I used to know, that boy who was now a man—a cold, lonely, detached man. The smile and laugh I had loved so much were gone, now distant memories. Every part of him was covered in a fresh pain. When he realized who I was, he made me promise to do my job and my job only. He made me promise not to try to ge...

The Secret

Scholastic Warehouse Haul (97 books!)


*The Scholastic Warehouse sale is a bi-yearly sale that occurs (quite obviously) at the warehouses of Scholastic across the country. The books are sold at half price or more the face value of the book and these sales are open to teachers, librarians, and other school volunteers...on a personal note, I've been going for years.*

So last week I went back to the Scholastic Warehouse, where I had volunteered at the end of November, to use my vouchers that I had earned while volunteering. While volunteering you earn $20 in book vouchers per hour and I worked 17 hours so I got $340 in vouchers, and as you can tell by the title of this haul...I went overboard and got 52 books. For the non-volunteers the books are discounted but as a volunteer we must pay the full sticker price (however they are free from the vouchers so it all works out).

Anyways, once I got to the sale the first section I came upon before going directly in to the warehouse was the $25 a box section. Basically, you try to fit as many books as you can in one box and the whole thing is only $25! Usually, I pass these sections up at the book sales because they books aren't very good but this time there was a few titles that I decided to grab. I ended up filling up a whole box so here's what I got in that one:

Virals by Kathy Reichs

Blog Tour: Come Alive Review and Giveaway

Come Alive (Experiment in Terror #7) by Karina Halle ★★★★★ Release Date: June 23, 2013 Age: Adult, 17+ Genre: Horror, Suspense, Romance, Paranormal Romance Format: ebook Source: The Book Asylum & Reading Books Like a Boss Buy it: Amazon | Smashwords It’s one thing to bring the woman you love back into your life. It’s another to try and keep her there. For Dex Foray, convincing Perry Palomino to open herself to their burgeoning relationship has been more challenging than hunting ghosts, battling demons and stalking Sasquatch combined. Add in the fact that the only way they can keep their Experiment in Terror show running is to take on a third partner in the form of the mysterious Maximus Jacobs — all while investigating a sinister voodoo sect in New Orleans — and you’ve got the perfect Southern storm and a recipe for disaster. Luckily, Dex has never been one to back down, even when his life –and heart — are on the line.

Come Alive is told from Dex’s POV. Waiting, for what felt l...
