Bookworm Readers: Second Edition

Name: Claire
Alias: Bookworm
Blog Name: Bookworm Readers

Hey YA Book Bloggers! I'm baaaack! I'm currently sick at home, reading like a maniac, so I've decided to make another post. Here goes...

Reading News: I'm currently smack-dab in the middle of Elizabeth Scott's Stealing Heaven, and I can't say that I'm terribly impressed by it. In fact, I'm just ready for it to be over. It's one of those books that doesn't really have a plot, it just plods along. I want it to end already, but I also want to keep on reading. You know?  I'm kind of disappointed because I've heard such great things about it from my friends and other book bloggers, but I don't see it in this book. Do you think I should keep on reading? On my shelf I have a whole buttload of ARCs and books sent to me from authors that I need to get crackin' on and review. And last week I finished Shannon and Dean Hale's Rapunzel's Revenge (review coming soon!). I was amazed; it was truly fantastic. Seriously. The artwork was TDF. I've also got a T-O-N of library books: Fresh off the Boat by Melissa De La Cruz, Accidentally Fabulous by Lisa Barham, This Book Isn't Fat, It's Fabulous by Nina Beck, The Mystery of the Third Lucretia by Susan Runholt, and The Juliet Club by Suzanne Harper. And my pal lent me the first Inside Girl book by J. Minter. So I'm going to be pret-ty busy...LOL

Blogging news: I've got 2 new features on Bookworm Readers this week: The Monday Muse was introduced this morning. Every week, I'll have a different author featured through an interview, guest blog, or vlog. Today's was Micol Ostow (check out her blog's release party-it's totally rockin'.) as our first Muse. I'm really excited, it's going to be F-U-N!!!!! Also, there's Friday Flashbacks, which is when I'll review a favorite old picture book. It should be good, it'll bring back some old memories for sure. (;

Personal News: Well, I'm supposed to be "resting" so I can head on back to school tomorrow. I think I'll go eat some Jell-O now....

Keep on Reading!

I loved Fresh Off the Boat- def. read that first.

And hmm, maybe I'll avoid Stealing Heaven for now, and read Scott's other books beforehand. Not that I'll be getting to it anytime soon anyway due to how many books I have in my pile.
