But when fire suddenly obeys her every command and her dreams predict the future, she becomes hungry for more of this strange power. Under her dreams’ guidance, Rose lands in the fantasy realm of Lotheria–with a tagalong. Tyson, her best friend since childhood, winds up there with her, just as confused and a hell of a lot more vulnerable. In Lotheria, Rose is welcomed and celebrated as a fire mage at the Academy, while the very un-magical Tyson is forced into hiding under threat of death from the masters of Rose’s new school.

Hello All, It has been awhile. Lately I've been trying to become passionate about Books again and while I'm not quite reading more I have found myself drawn to some really fantastic book covers. Hence the idea for Cover Love was born. I'm not sure if I'll make this a weekly thing or just random when I find inspiring covers but I'm happy to find something to rekindle my passions so let's hope for the best shall we?? Also I'm sure somebody, somewhere has a concept just like this so please don't fill my comments saying I ripped this off from x, y, z. I assure you I just want to share all the pretty covers with you. I'm not even sure myself how I'm going to do so in the long run so please be patient with me. Anywho, this whole concept came about after receiving an email with some covers for upcoming 2019 books in them. I was blown away by some of the artwork and it sent me scrounging the internet for more. Somehow I made my way to pinterest and ...

Every year I feel like I say the same thing, so many books, so little time. 2016 by far was better reading wise for me than 2015. I completed my Goodreads goal, I read a bunch of wicked new Graphic Novels and I even stepped out of my comfort zone and read some books not in my usual preference of genres. So why do I feel like a failure still?  Despite my best efforts to read more I still left many books on the shelf unread. The dutiful reader within is screaming with discontent but my heart knows that I tried and sometimes that has to be good enough. The great thing about literature is it is not fleeting. The books will be their waiting for me with open pages when I find time to get around to them.    With that being said and in no particular order (sans my top pick), here are my Top Ten Books I Regret Not Reading In 2016: 10.) My Lady Jane by Cynthia Hand The comical, fantastical, romantical, (not) entirely true story of Lady Jane Grey. In My Lady Jane, coau...
