Friday’s First Listen -Scarlet

February 23, 2013 by unwasted words

BY Marissa Meyer NARRATOR Rebecca Soler LENGTH 11 hours 19 mins PUBLISHER Macmillan Audio RELEASE 02/05/13 Thank you Macmillan Audio for providing this week’s clip! As promised here’s a taste of Marissa Meyer’s Sci-Fi fairy tale series. Scarlet is the second installment of The Lunar Chronicles. Normally I don’t like overly drawn out series, normally I would think a book that’s part Star Wars part Grimm Fairy Tales with a few dystopian elements and a little high fantasy political drama would be way too many ideas. But this […]

Wednesday’s Watch -The Hunt

May 2, 2012 by unwasted words

The Hunt appears to be a vampire book with some edge. I’ve read some comparisons to The Hunger Games, which could be a kiss of death since the last book (recently released) I read that was honored with that likeness was a supreme let down. But on the up side dystopian vampires seem to be hot at the moment. Either way I’m really excited about this one, and have it at the top of my TBR pile for this week. […]

Wednesday’s Watch -Infamous

March 7, 2012 by unwasted words

So I have to admit, I haven’t read the parent books that spawned this YA series. And honestly after reading some of the reviews from the other Chronicles of Nick books, I’m not sure I want to. At least not yet. I don’t want the adult books to ruin the love I have for Nick right now. Maybe after the series has run it’s course I’ll work my way through how everything began. Infinity and Invincible are a lot of […]

Book of the Week!!! 01/30-02/06

January 30, 2012 by unwasted words

I’m not sure what first lead me to this series. Maybe it was the premise, since the Adult paranormal fiction community hasn’t be over run with Grimm Reapers yet. Or it could have been the appeal of narrator Lorelei King voicing the audiobooks. But something snagged my interest, and I’m glad it did. I immediately fell in love with this series. It’s witty, smart, has an interesting cast and backstory. Second Grave on the Left put a smile on my […]
