Review: Someone Else, Somewhere Else by Jenelle Jack Pierre


IN A GLANCE:Cute story, wish it was longer

Date Published: February 15th 2012

Buy This: Amazon


“Though we were four years younger than Ariya, we’d watched teenagers before at an older cousin’s house. They talked on the phone, they texted their boyfriends, they watched movies on DVDs. Sometimes, they tidied up the house by wiping the table with a damp sponge after feeding us, removing the crumbs and ring spots from the bottom of our glasses. But we’d never seen any of them work like Ariya did.”

Twin sisters. Stepdaughters. Neighbours. In this short fiction, the lives of the twins are forever changed when their mother remarries and they move next door to a family unlike their own. Could their lives have been different with a flip of a coin?



Author Interview: Jenelle Pierre



It's time to get to know this great author a little more.  I want to thank Jenelle Pierre for being with us today and for doing this interview!!! So lets see what she has to say...





      Can you tell us something interesting about your writing process?

I prefer to write longhand in a notebook first.  I think it makes the writing process easier for me because I can scratch out sentences and pause when needed to think about the clarity of what I’m writing.

       Is there anything you’re working on now? 

I’m working on a short story collection called “Love’s Onlookers.” Someone Else, Somewhere Else is a part of this collection.

Review: The Sweetest Dark by Shana Abe'


Review: The Sweetest Dark by Shana Abe'




IN A GLANCE: Marvelous, Miraculous, mind-blowing. Those would be the words I would use to start describing this book.


Title: The Sweetest Dark
Author: Shana Abe'
Publisher:  Random House Publishing
Pages:  352 pages
Format: ebook ark (from Edeliweiss)
ISBN #:  0345531701
Expected publication: September 17, 2013
Preorder: Amazon


With every fiber of my being, I yearned to be normal. To glide through my days at Iverson without incident. But I’d have to face the fact that my life was about to unfold in a very, very different way than I’d ever envisioned. Normal would become forever out of reach.”

Lora Jones has always known that she’s different. On the outside, she appears to be an ordinary sixteen-year-old girl. Yet Lora’s been keeping a heartful of secrets: She hears songs that no one else can hear, dreams vividly of smoke and flight, and lives with a mysterious voice inside her that insists she’s far more than what she seems.

England, 1915. Raised in an orphanage in a rough corner of London, Lora quickly learns to hide her unique abilities and avoid attention. Then, much to her surprise, she is selected as the new charity student at Iverson, an elite boarding school on England’s southern coast. Iverson’s eerie, gothic castle is like nothing Lora has ever seen. And the two boys she meets there will open her eyes and forever change her destiny.

Jesse is the school’s groundskeeper—a beautiful boy who recognizes Lora for who and what she truly is. Armand is a darkly handsome and arrogant aristocrat who harbors a few closely guarded secrets of his own. Both hold the answers to her past. One is the key to her future. And both will aim to win her heart. As danger descends upon Iverson, Lora must harness the powers she’s only just begun to understand, or else lose everything she dearly loves.

Filled with lush atmosphere, thrilling romance, and ancient magic, The Sweetest Dark brilliantly captures a rich historical era while unfolding an enchanting love story that defies time.








Another Add To Ali's Bookshelf


It is time for another add to my bookshelf! I have a great new book and I am dying to read it.  








Embrace the Forbidden

What if there were teens whose lives literally depended on being bad influences?

This is the reality for sons and daughters of fallen angels.

Tenderhearted Southern girl Anna Whitt was born with the sixth sense to see and feel emotions of other people. She’s aware of a struggle within herself, an inexplicable pull toward danger, but Anna, the ultimate good girl, has always had the advantage of her angel side to balance the darkness within. It isn’t until she turns sixteen and meets the alluring Kaidan Rowe that she discovers her terrifying heritage and her willpower is put to the test. He’s the boy your daddy warned you about. If only someone had warned Anna.

Forced to face her destiny, will Anna embrace her halo or her horns?





WHERE I HEARD ABOUT THIS BOOK...

I heard about Sweet Evil first from a friend of mine that saw the book on Amazon, I rushed over there and looked it up and the cover caught my eyes and I had to read what it was about.  I immediately added it to my wish list!!

Guest Post: A Final Lesson Learned on the Importance of World Building By Stephen Zimmer


 A Final Lesson Learned on the Importance of World Building By Stephen Zimmer


Exploring new worlds, encountering exotic creatures, and journeying across many diverse lands have always been at the center of what draws me towards the various speculative fiction genres, as a writer and reader.  For me, the best authors have made things I have never encountered before in this world live and breathe.   From Middle Earth to Narnia, to Westeros and the lands of the Hyborian Age, I have adventured alongside several great authors into places that held a vivid, organic reality.

As I travel down the author road, I have sought to make the realms I see in my imagination come to life for my readers in a similar way.  The art of world building rests at the core of this effort.  It is a very encompassing task, one that demands considerations of many different levels and areas. 
From the geography of a land, to its history, populations, religious beliefs, flora and fauna, and much more, the craft of world building brings depth and reality to a story.  It is what surrounds the characters, and provides the environments in which the plots germinate and mature to harvest. 
The works that eventually became the Fires in Eden Series and the Rising Dawn Saga began near the mid 1990’s.  I had two big stories that were burning to get out, one set in a medieval-type world, and the other set in a blend of the modern world and supernatural realms.  Over the next few years I worked on what became the initial manuscripts for the first books in each series.

When I was finished, I had a few individuals read them for me, to give me feedback, but it turned out that I was my own hardest critic.  The basic plotlines were there, and the characters were largely there, but there was just something missing from the equation.   I could not entirely suspend my disbelief, in the way that I immersed into worlds like those found in the works of Robert E. Howard or Glen Cook.

"The 2011 Book Blogger's Cookbook is a beautiful blend of a cookbook about books. It's worth reading straight through if only to find new books to add to your "to-read" shelf."

Guest Post: World Building with D.A. Adams



Today I have a great author with us to talk about World Building.  D.A. Adams, created an amazing world for his book series, The Brotherhood of Dwarves so I figured he would be a great author to chat about World building.  

On World Building with D.A. Adams


Please, allow me to preface everything I’m about to say with this disclaimer:  I don’t consider myself an expert or an authority on world building, so take all of my advice with a grain of salt.  That said, I do believe there are some paramount fundamentals for creating a new space that all writers should adhere to.  Most importantly, all writers, regardless of genre or style must partake in some form of world building because all fiction involves inventing an alternate reality in which their story takes place.  Even if the story is set in the “real world,” any attempt at capturing the essence of our reality will fall short because our world is simply too large, too complex, and too dynamic ever to be rendered flawlessly in any medium.  The best any writer can hope to achieve is creating a reality in their story that the audience will accept and believe.

Review: The Guardian's Wildchild by Feather Stone


Review: The Guardian's Wildchild by Feather Stone





IN A GLANCE: A very warm story filled with love and courage!



 Title: The Guardian’s Wildchild
Author: Feather Stone
Genre: Fiction – Mystical, Paranormal, Romance, Murder Mystery
Published by: Omnific Publishing
Recommended Age: 18+
Format(s):  paperback
ISBN 13: 978-1-936305-88-9
Number of pages: 277
Buy This: Amazon * Barnes and Noble*

Sidney Davenport is known as Wildchild to her Guardian mentor, Greystone. She rebels against rules. Wildchild is gifted in the paranormal, but carefully conceals her powers from the world. Even in the crises that threaten her life, she refuses to use her powers of telepathy, telekinesis, space/time travel. If her enemies discovered the truth of who she is, her Guardian people would be destroyed. She calls upon her spirit guides, Seamus and Celeste, to guide her through a mine field of the insane - Madame and Captain Butchart.

Sidney leaves her home on Hawk's Island to help the underground stop two people who are about to cause worldwide madness. Unskilled in esponage, she is arrested and sentanced to death. But, God help Sidney, she can't deny her attraction to the man who has orders to perform her execution - the tall, dark eyed Captain Waterhouse. He's meticulous, disciplined and lives by the strict rules expected of an officer of the American navy.

Captain Waterhouse is about to scrap his higher morals to bust out of his hell. When a female prisoner is delivered to his ship, he has no idea she is capable of turning his disciplined life into a storm of unimaginable experiences. His prisoner's enemies, he discovers, are also the ones who hold his life in the palm of their hands.

Through stunning imagery, an intricate and adventurous plot, and a strong cast of characters, Feather Stone gives readers a fast paced story woven with murder and magic.


Review: 


I was so excited when I got this book for the tour.  I had been wanting to read it for a while and dove right in when it came in the mail.  When I say dove right in, I mean that literally, this book draws you in and doesn't let go till you've read the very last word.

The characters are amazing and well developed and the plot, wow lets just say it is jam packed full of emotion.  One minute I was laughing,   one minute I was so mad, then I'd be crying my eyes out reading it.  I love it when an author can elicit that much emotion out of me when I'm reading.  It shows they did their jobs correct and connected me to their story and their characters.  Feather Stone did just that in The Guardian's Wildchild.

I loved the love story in this story.  The characters were amazing together, even though one was very tormented and one was really sweet, they both equaled each other out.  It's a perfect fit.  I wished through the whole book and story for their happy ever after and that pulled me into this story just as much as the mystery.  I loved the twists and turns of this book as well

All in all The Guardian's Wildchild is a great book and I would recommend it to anyone that likes Paranormal romance!

The Guardian's Wildchild Blog Tour: Guest Post



I'm so excited to tell you all about this amazing book, but first I have a guest post from this very talented author.  


What would you like your readers to take away from your book?

 
Reading a book should be a journey of anticipation and discovery.  The story needs to take you to a place you’ve never been.  It needs to blur the edges of your responsibilities and worries.  It needs to be a salve to your life’s wounds.  It should tickle your imagination and flex your own story telling gifts that every soul possesses. The characters should be unforgettable.
The Guardian’s Wildchild is such a story.  Like a carefully crafted campfire, it catches fire gradually, building to an unexpected blaze.  In the background are the benevolent Guardians. Through their visions you will finally know the human race was powerful as a god.

Blog Tour: The Guardian's Wildchild



Today is a great day for a blog tour! Today I have The Guardian's Wildchild on the blog.  I will be posting a review and a guest post from the amazing author Feather Stone.  So I hope you stick around to check out all the amazing posts for the day.

How to build a world
David L Dawson, author of The Fall

Building a believable fictional world can sometimes be easy, other times hard, and occasionally frustrating.  It can also be immense fun.  You get to build your own world!  How brilliant is that?  Years ago I imagined that setting a story in a completely made up world was a lot more preferable to setting something in modern times where I'd have to do hours and hours of painstaking research.  I was wrong.  Creating your own world means exactly that; you have to create it from scratch.  You're a god of your own realm.  Sure there are elements that you need, a template if you will.  Dystopians are usually built from the ruins of the planet we know now, albeit in twisted, almost unrecognizable forms.  Often the most fun is guessing what went wrong to turn this new world sour or discovering familiar things that have been distorted.  An example is from my novel The Fall, set in a dystopian future where actual gods have destroyed the planet through their own fighting.  The main character, Ben Casper, lives in a place called The Glass Palace.  You find out that this was in fact a former shopping mall.  Anyone who lives in England, or Yorkshire anyway, will probably recognize which shopping mall it is.  I won't say which in case I get sued or anything, but it's pretty obvious (if you live in Yorkshire, anyway.  If not then it'll forever be a mystery).

It's Monday...What are You Reading?



It's Monday! What Are You Reading is hosted by Book Journey!

This is a great post where I share what books I read last week and what books I'm going to read this week! So lets get started, shall we? 
Last Week I Read...

Fifty Shades Darker by E.L. James


What I'm Reading Today...


(I'm reading this one for the book club!!) 

Humanity is all but extinguished after a war with partials—engineered organic beings identical to humans—has decimated the world’s population. Reduced to only tens of thousands by a weaponized virus to which only a fraction of humanity is immune, the survivors in North America have huddled together on Long Island. The threat of the partials is still imminent, but, worse, no baby has been born immune to the disease in over a decade. Humanity’s time is running out.

When sixteen-year-old Kira learns of her best friend’s pregnancy, she’s determined to find a solution. Then one rash decision forces Kira to flee her community with the unlikeliest of allies. As she tries desperately to save what is left of her race, she discovers that the survival of both humans and partials rests in her attempts to answer questions of the war’s origin that she never knew to ask.

Combining the fast-paced action of The Hunger Games with the provocative themes of Battlestar Galactica, Partials is a pulse-pounding journey into a world where the very concept of what it means to be human is in question—one where our sense of humanity is both our greatest liability, and our only hope for survival.
