Precipice, The Beginning

by Kevin J. Howard
Series: Precipice #1
Release date: 23rd November, 2012
Publisher: Outskirts Press
Pages: 482 (paperback edition)

Summary from Goodreads:

The End is only the Beginning....
It wasn't the first time Lieutenant Travis Daniels had been far from his wife and son. Leading an elite team on countless missions, dodging death at every turn-it was what he was trained to do. And returning to his family was always his driving force... but this time might be different. Imprisoned for an unsanctioned intrusion into a hot zone, Travis and his elite team took a deal to assist in the colonization of Mars to evade the death penalty. While stationed there, Travis' only source of sanity were the brief video conversations he was allowed with his family. When the last transmission received showed choppy images of the city in darkness and blurs of humanoid creatures running through the streets, Travis and his team must decide to either stay on Mars or find a way back to his family-unknowing of the hell that Earth has become.

This and That

“This or That”

- Angels or Demons: Angels. An upcoming novel of mine, Closed Cell, is based on Michael the Archangel.
- Fall or Spring: Spring.
- Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter: This just isn't right, can't I pick both? :). Harry Potter I guess. Any novel that inspires so many children, teens, and adults to read is a winner.

What's going on in Librarian Mouse?

First of all, my most sincere apologies to you all. Not only my posts are non-existent but also my blog disappeared for a few days...

So, what the heck is going on, right?! Well, I have a new job. And it's quite amazing -environmental stuff!- but it requires a lot of traveling and I've spent the last 23 days going all around Europe. Sounds awesome, I know, and it is but it can be really tiring too... Which is why, every time I finished work I couldn't, for the life of me, sit and write something. Which sucks.

And then suddenly I totally forgot to renew my domain which cause the blog to disappear! Thank goodness my husband wanted to show my blog to a friend and he noticed the problem which means he called me, completely freaking out, and asked me the id and password to renew it himself ^^U -BTW, thanks a lot, baby-.

In short, I'm really sorry. I don't know how am I going to balance work and blogging plus my family problems but I will try my best. And hopefully you will stuck with me and my crazy life :)

Two blog tours are coming around and a few new reviews so don't forget me because I always remember you all.

Lots of love,

ReVamped

by Ada Adams
Series: Angel Creek #1
Release date: 20th February, 2012
Publisher: Selfpub
Pages: 291 (paperback edition)

Summary from Goodreads:

A simple mission turned deadly.

Nineteen-year-old vampire Dawn has led a sheltered life within the confines of her father’s presidential headquarters. Upon being sent on a mission to revamp four goofy misfits into guardians of a peaceful little town of Angel Creek, Dawn believes that all her dreams have finally come true. What starts off as a simple task, turns into something unexpected, changing Dawn’s life forever and leading the action-loving, thrill-seeking vampire teen on a path of mystery, danger and intrigue.

When a human girl is kidnapped by a group of rogue vamps, Dawn discovers that there is more going on in Angel Creek than meets the eye. And it all connects to Ethan, the cute newcomer who seems too perfect to be true, Sebastian, the mysterious vampire with a turbulent past, and even Dawn herself. Dawn must not only succeed in revamping the troubled recruits, but must also prevent the vampire race from being overtaken by a malevolent villain who has a strange and obsessive fascination with her. As threat escalates, romance blooms, and ghosts from her past begin to surface, Dawn is sure of only one thing: her life will never be the same.

Playlist

Music Playlist for ReVamped

by Ada Adams

I’m so bad when it comes to creating playlists! I always hear songs that remind me of characters, scenes, and themes of my books, but never manage to put them into a coherent list! So, for now, I enlisted some “ReVamped” readers and Team Misfits members to create a mini playlist. They also included the scenes that the songs remind them of. My readers are so much better at this than I’ll ever be!

ReAwakened

by Ada Adams
Series: Angel Creek #2
Release date: 27th November, 2012
Publisher: Selfpub
Pages: 540 (paperback edition)

Summary from Goodreads:

Becoming a vampire guardian was Dawn Fairchild’s ticket out of the Scarlet House. Fresh off a successful mission, life in Angel Creek should have been great. But when her sort-of-maybe-boyfriend, Sebastian, disappears on a quest to help a beautiful vampire from his past, Dawn finds herself amidst a web of danger, lies, and deceit.

Joining forces with Razor, an enigmatic rebel lacking both a verbal and a physical filter, and her band of Misfits—Brooke, Sophie, Hunter, and Seth—Dawn is thrust into a race against the clock to solve the mystery surrounding brutal Born kidnappings and come to terms with the sudden discovery of her own unique powers. With time ticking away and Born vampires’ lives in jeopardy, it quickly becomes evident that someone—or something—desperately wants Dawn and is willing to shed any amount of blood to get her.

Dawn has only one chance to face her demons and overcome all obstacles standing in her way as she embarks on the biggest mission of her life—one that threatens a deadly outcome for all involved.

Runes

Pages: 245 (ebook in exchange of an honest review)

Summary from Goodreads:

Seventeen-year-old Raine Cooper has enough on her plate dealing with her father’s disappearance, her mother’s erratic behavior and the possibility of her boyfriend relocating. The last thing she needs is Torin St. James—a mysterious new neighbor with a wicked smile and uncanny way of reading her.

Raine is drawn to Torin’s dark sexiness against her better judgment, until he saves her life with weird marks and she realizes he is different. But by healing her, Torin changes something inside Raine. Now she can’t stop thinking about him. Half the time, she’s not sure whether to fall into his arms or run.

Scared, she sets out to find out what Torin is. But the closer she gets to the truth the more she uncovers something sinister about Torin. What Torin is goes back to an ancient mythology and Raine is somehow part of it. Not only are she and her friends in danger, she must choose a side, but the wrong choice will cost Raine her life.

Addicted to You
by Krista Ritchie & Becca Ritchie
Series: Addicted #1
Release Date: 1st July, 2013

Official synopsis:

Two addictions. One lie.

No one would suspect shy, Lily Calloway’s biggest secret. While everyone is dancing at college bars, Lily stays in the bathroom. To get laid. Her compulsion leads her to one-night stands, steamy hookups and events she shamefully regrets. The only person who knows her secret happens to have one of his own.

Loren Hale’s best friend is his bottle of bourbon. Lily comes at a close second. For three years, they’ve pretended to be in a real relationship, hiding their addictions from their families. They’ve mastered the art of concealing flasks and random guys that filter in and out of their apartment.

But when they go on a family boat trip, surrounded by open seas and limited male bodies in sight, Lily’s confronted with a big fear. Only one guy onboard can fill her addiction, and she’s sworn off going there with Loren Hale ever again.

Now the only person who can truly help her, can barely help himself.

**This is a New Adult book recommended for readers 18 and up**
