The Romance Bookie

***WARNING!!! THIS BOOK MAY CONTAIN SUBJECT MATTERS NOT SUITABLE FOR ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 17!!!!*** Today I'm so excited to be a part of the Beautiful Oblivion  Blog Tour for Jamie McGuire's latest release...which gives us more insight on those sexy Maddox brothers!! ;) Description of Beautiful Oblivion  by Jamie McGuire, the first book in the Maddox Brothers Series: Fiercely independent Camille "Cami" Camlin gladly moved on from her childhood before it was over.  She has held down a job since before she could drive, and moved into her own apartment after her freshman year of college.  Now tending bar at The Red Door, Cami doesn't have time for much else besides work and classes, until a trip to see her boyfriend is cancelled, leaving her with a first weekend off in almost a year. Trenton Maddox was the king of Eastern State University, dating co-eds before he even graduated high school.  His friends wanted to be him, and women wanted to tame him,...

Happy Mother's Day to all the fabulous Mother's out there in the world!! I know my brother and I are trying everything today to spoil our mom! :) I've been a fan of Jamie McGuire's since I read Beautiful Disaster in October of 2011, when it was actually still a self-published novel!  I just absolutely devoured that book!! So when I found out Jamie McGuire was publishing a new novella series, in the contemporary world, I knew I had to read it! Happenstance  by Jamie McGuire is the first of three in this new novella series, which hit online stores Friday (May 9th, 2014)! From Goodreads : Such a gorgeous cover! #1 New York Times Bestseller Jamie McGuire returns to self-publishing with this page-turning YA account of Erin Easter, one of three Erins in the small senior class of rural Blackwell High School who not only share a first name, but also their birthday. Erin Easter, raised by a neglectful single mom, keeps to herself and admires Weston Gates from afar...

Hey Everyone!! So Jamie McGuire made a super awesome announcement a couple of weeks ago, that had me squealing like a serious fan-girl! Fans of Travis Maddox, from the Beautiful Disaster  series will be thrilled to know that on December 10th (next Tuesday! One Week from today!!), the story of Abby and Travis's wedding will be revealed when Beautiful Wedding is released! Well, thanks to the wonderful publishers at Atria I was lucky enough to get an advanced finished copy of the book last week, so of course, me being the squealing fan-girl started to devour it right away! From Goodreads: You know that Abby Abernathy unexpectedly became Mrs. Maddox. But what do you really know? Why did Abby pop the question? What secrets were shared before the ceremony? Where did they spend their wedding night? Who else knew about it . . . and didn’t tell? Everything about Abby and Travis’s elopement was top-secret . . . until now. Fans of Beautiful Disaster and Walking Disaster will get...

So let me just begin by saying I'm sooooooooo darn excited right now!!! Why?? Well, I'm a stop on the Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire Blog Tour!!!!!!!! Yay!!! So I received Walking Disaster a few weeks ago in the mail, and wow!  I seriously pretty much ate that book alive! From Goodreads : Finally, the highly anticipated follow-up to the New York Times bestseller Beautiful Disaster. Can you love someone too much? Travis Maddox learned two things from his mother before she died: Love hard. Fight harder. In Walking Disaster, the life of Travis is full of fast women, underground gambling, and violence. But just when he thinks he is invincible, Abby Abernathy brings him to his knees. Every story has two sides. In Beautiful Disaster, Abby had her say. Now it’s time to see the story through Travis’s eyes. My Thoughts: So first off, it's been almost two years since I read Beautiful Disaster (if you don't believe me, go HERE! )!  I read it when it was st...

Hey Everyone!!! Last IMM for 2013!!!! This past month, I only got 2 news hard copies (REALLY AWESOME ONES!!!!), and a TON of ebooks!  But it's a good thing, because next year I am going to start going by this motto: From Facebook Yes, next year my best friend will the Library for new books!! I will only be (or attempting to) buy books from my favorite authors and my favorite series! It will be tough, but I think I can do it!! Anyway, so here's my haul for this month!!

Remember everyone, this is a MONTHLY IMM, not weekly!! So I got once again some totally awesome books!! This was actually also a super great month in great deals on E-books! I have this policy where I refuse to spend anything over $2.99 on an ebook, why?  Well, because most of the time if the book is over that than it's between $7.99 and $9.99, and once in a while even up to $12.99!  When that's the case, well, I look up how much the hard copy costs on Barnes And Noble online, and usually it's around $10...so instead of paying $7.99 or $9.99 for an ecopy that I will never enjoy looking at the cover, I buy the hard copy that gives me the opportunity to a...
