Books To The Tea

As many book lovers my TBR pile is.... well....a little much. I have a book shelf in our living room dedicated to my TBR, and it is really piling up. The other day I could not figure out what book to choose next, and my husband came up and asked if he could pick my next book for me. I thought this was a great idea, and told him that I would let him once a month pick a book out for me and I would read it. Why he chose this book: "I don't know, the cover looks really cool."   Goodreads     "Mila 2.0 is the first book in an electrifying sci-fi thriller series about a teenage girl who discovers that she is an experiment in artificial intelligence. Mila was never meant to learn the truth about her identity. She was a girl living with her mother in a small Minnesota town. She was supposed to forget her past—that she was built in a secret computer science lab and programmed to do things real people would never do. Now she has no choice but to run—fro...

  Title : Sweet Evil Series: The Sweet Trilogy #1 Author: Wendy Higgins Overall Goodreads Rating: 4.16  Pages :447 Published: Published May 1st 2012 by HarperTeen My Overall Rating: 5/5 stars!   **** The kindle edition is $1.99 for limited time!!! You can find it Here!! This book is my ideal fun read. I thought this book was the perfect picture of a paranormal YA book. You have the angst love we all crave, fast paced action, and a VERY unique twist on a old tale of the seven deadly sins. I will be honest the first part I was afraid there was going to be insta love, but that is not what it is. What we see is our main male character doing his job extremely well...you will understand what I mean when you read the book! I highly recommend this book. I flew through it. I read this book and the next one in two days. I couldn't stop reading! I think this book is the perfect summer read because it is super fun, romantic, and you will wan...

It was the perfect rollercoaster and the best ending I could have asked for. This book was full of shocking surprises, action, realistic love problems. This book will pull at your heart strings and have you smiling, crying, screaming, and laughing. Once you think your under control think again. We all know how Mead can push your emotions and Ruby Circle is no exception.   I highly recommend you listen to this book. Emily Shaffer is hands down the best! I swear the first time I heard her voice I squealed because it was exactly what I thought Sydney would sound like. Although I wish they wouldn't have added another narrator in the ...

  Title: Red Queen Series: Red Queen #1 Author: Victoria Aveyard Narrator: Amanda Dolan Overall Goodreads Rating: 4.10 Length of Audiobook:   12 hrs and 40 mins Published: February 10th 2015 by Orion My Rating: 4.5/5 Stars        IN A NUTSHELL First do you see what I did here? Red and Silver...get it? Anyway this book was a fantastic listen. I really enjoyed the original twist on how characters are ranked in this fantasy world. The characters are ranked on what color they bleed. If you bleed silver you are ranked like royalty and live comfortable. You also get epic powers such as controlling fire, being able to read peoples minds, controlling metal awesome things like that. If you bleed red well than you are SOL and end up having a crappy job or going off to war. In this book we learn that not everything is as black and white....or red and silver as they thought. This book was fast paced and had so much twist that I didn't see com...

Okay so I debated on writing this post for a long time, but decided to write it for two reasons. 1.) I haven't been posting lately and you deserve to know why. 2.) The reason I write a blog is to help others not only find their next great read, but to share my thoughts and feelings. I feel like I am helping others even if it is just finding a book they love. What I am going through may be something that you guys are going through as well, and maybe hearing my story will help you know there is someone else out there going through what you are and can relate to your struggle. In middle school I was bullied for my weight. I was overweight and no matter what I did I just couldn't lose the weight. People constantly made fun of me and at one point in time a boy posted a picture of miss. piggy on my locker. It was a very hard time for me. I ended up leaving that school for many different reasons, but one main reason was the bullying over my weight. I don't think I ever truly got...

Title : Firelight Series: Firelight #1 Author: Sophie Jordan Narrator: Therese Plummer Overall Goodreads Rating: 3.91 Length of Audiobook: 9 HRS 36 MINS Published: September 7th 2010 by HarperTeen My Rating: 3/5 Stars      In A Nutshell This was a fun read with angst teenage love, drama, and draki's. I enjoyed this book and feel like it would be a good read to read or listen to on a summer day, during a reading marathon, or on vacation. The narrator was fantastic and she did well when it came to changing her voice for different characters and keeping my attention. This book wasn't mind blowing (it liked a little depth) but it was a book that I looked forward to listening to when I had some free time. Your main character Jacinda is a draki who is taken from her draki life and thrown into high school where there are cute boys, mean girls, and all the angst that comes with it. Jacinda misses her old life and has to deci...
