It’s exciting to see the covers coming in, thank you to everyone who submitted links!  This week SUCH WICKED INTENT reminded me how much I *adore* men’s formalwear and THE TEMPTATION has a cover sultry enough to carry off the title.  Of the nine series that have new titles coming out, I’m behind on more than half of them!  Anyone else hear Abigail’s TBR Pile sneaking up on them?

 

It’s the last Friday of the month which means it’s time to check out what we’re going to be reading next month in:

Thank you all for entering this giveaway to win all 4 books in The Black Sun's Daughter series by MLN Hanover

The winner (chosen by Random.org) is…

We do our best to only accept books for review that we think we will enjoy, but it is impossible to safeguard 100% against bad reads.  These are the books we Did Not Finish

We do not give up on books lightly.  In fact we hate not finishing a book, even a bad book, but there are times when for one reason or another, we just can’t bring ourselves to reach the end.  In our latest poll you guys said you wanted to hear about which books made it onto our dreaded DNF pile, so here you have the first of hopefully very few DNF posts.  We’ll be posting them when we collect a few DNF reads or every few months depending.

These are the titles we’re most thankful for this year.  Which book(s) are you thankful for?

Thank you all for entering this giveaway to win an ecopy of SHADOWLANDER by Theresa Meyers

The winner (chosen by Random.org) is…

This round of covers has some polarizing moments, as Abigail and I have some wildly different “thumbs down” moments.  I was excited to see a new face for M.L.N. Hanover’s Jayné Heller series, and we were both pumped to see Allie Beckstrom and Sophie Lawson return.  Though the jury is still out as to whether or not Sophie successfully kicks butt within the book itself, at least she gets to start book three wearing a shirt.  Also, two of our reveals come from cover artists, rather than authors, which offers a neat glimpse at the creative process that goes one before the title text.  Hope you enjoy!
