Hey Everyone! So today I'm a part of the Inhale, Exhale  Blog Tour!!! :) I am doing a review on the ARC edition!  The came was released officially on the seventh, so if it's something that might sound interesting to you, you can find the buy links below! :) From  Goodreads : Jillian had a plan: celebrate the end of her first year of college with an amazing summer full of beaches, barbeques, and bonfires. When her mom insists she needs a summer job, and her boyfriend spends more time with his band than with her, Jillian’s plans go down the drain. Grant had a plan: finish his Masters, get a great job at Google, and get the hell out of Georgia. He might be giving up some of the fun of his youth, but he knows his all work and no play method would be worth it when his dreams came true. But things never go according to plan. When temptation brings them together and tragedy tears them apart, Jillian and Grant will be forced to choose: fight for their dreams, or f...

Guilty Pleasures (#1 in Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter Series) by Laurell K. Hamilton

Aside from the friends I've made blogging, I don't have very many friends who enjoy reading.  In fact, none of them read like I do.  So, when one of these friends recommends a book to me, I simply must check it out! One of my good friend, lent me her copy of Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter novels.  The first one, which is called Guilty Pleasures. From Amazon (because Goodreads had an awful description): Anita Blake may be small and young, but vampires call her the Executioner.

The city's most powerful vampire, Nikolaos, is 1,000 years old and looks like a 10-year-old girl. The second most powerful va...

Delirium

Love. We all know of it.  We all have either experienced it, or imagine it. But what we all have in common is: We all want it. But can you also imagine a world without it?? Well, that's Lauren Oliver's world in Delirium .  Love is a disease, aka amor deliria nervosa.  Nobody wants it, in fact nobody wants to be near it. Lena can't wait to get the procedure that everyone gets at the age of 18 to become immune to amor deliria nervosa, or love.  She's counting down the days...that is until she meets Alex. Alex, who has the scars that indicate he actually had the procedure done, acts very different than the other adults who've gone through the process.  He breaks the rules, and even seems to flirt with Lena whenever they run across each other. Lena doesn't quite know how to handle the feelings inside of her. However, Alex changes Lena.  She starts realizing that maybe the life she learned was the acceptable life, isn't.  Maybe love isn't this ...
