Caught my arrow # 5


Caught my Arrow is a meme originally known as IMM and hosted by The Story Siren featuring books that were purchased, borrowed or received that week.



It's minus 30 here in Montreal. Yes, even my arrow is frozen. At least I get to stay home in company of my precious books.


This week I was honored to receive Jen MinkMan's Shadow of Time. A paranormal/ romance between Hannah and Josh who happens  to be Navajo. Hot, right? Until Hannah is plagued by strange nightmares.

For those who wish to know just how hot Navajo men are, here is a picture. 



Also, I borrowed Looking for Alaska and Until I Die from the library, and plan to read them this weekend under the covers. 


What are you reading this week?

Top Ten Tuesday


Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish


Book Settings We Would Like to See More Off



1. Another Planet with life and Seuss-like trees.

2. Underground rock scene.

3. I worked at a clinic to pay for college, and heard so many freaky Safari stories, I almost past out. ( Don't worry, I'm not studying to be a doctor.)

4. A Pageant Competition filled with roofies, dress sabotage and for once I would like to see a girl walk with a limp. Why does everyone need to be "perfect" to win a crown.


5. The Lost City in the Amazon


6. Paris




7. A Submarine where everything goes wrong.

8. Pirate Island

9. Imagine a 50 Shades of Wool set in Morocco. Instead of "Yes, Sir" it could be "Yes, Sultan."

10. And finally a Scotland Castle

Review: Sever



Sever, the conclusion of The Chemical Garden series, features more character growth than the first two books combined.

In Wither, Rhine was too quiet. Overly nice with everyone, she was even capable of turning Linden (her husband whom she never had any relations with) into her puppy dog and all because she looked like Rose. But who exactly is Rose? Was she also stolen and forced into marriage? That question will finally be answered. 

What interested me the most about reading this book, was the cover. If you look closely, you'll notice that Rhine is holding her wedding band. And as the title says: she will SEVER. But you'll never guess how.

Prepare to meet Vaughn's brother and for Madame's return.

Feature and Follow Friday




FEATURE & FOLLOW FRIDAY

Once you answer be sure to leave me your link so I can follow you back



Q: Who is your favorite villain from a book?



A: Two words .... Annie Wilkes. She kidnaps a writer and forces him to finish his book her way. That's like Martha Stewart holding us against our will to write her jokes.
         
                                                       It's evil and mean. A true villain.

Caught my arrow # 4

Whoa, this week passed so fast, I barely noticed. Since January is coming to an end, and I want to make sure I complete my first challenge this year I only borrowed one book from the library this week.
