Daily Dose (11)

Hosted by Good Golly Miss Holly

Daily Dose is all about posting pictures that inspire us. Since, for some unknown reason, I am craving winter, that's my theme this week. I usually hate winter, but I want snow and cold and warm, fuzzy hats. But for some reason, Minnesota (of all places) isn't cooperating yet. So instead, here are some wintery photos. (I do not own any of these photos)

Anyone else experiencing sudden winter lust?

Top Ten Tuesdays: Freebie!

Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish

This week is freebie week. I have zero creativeness flowing today so I decided to pick an old topic. I decided to go with Top Ten Series I Haven't Finished. Which there are so freaking many I don't know how I am going to choose. I seriously need a year where no one publishes any new books at all so I can catch up on all my series. Can this be a thing please?

 1. The Forest of Hands and Teeth series by Carrie Ryan
I really enjoyed the first one, but I've stalled on The Dead Tossed Waves a couple different times. I think I just need to get past the first couple chapters and I'll love it. Need to get on that!

2. House Of Night by P.C. Cast and Kristen Cast
I was listening to all of these on audiobook and made it to number five. But now that I've moved back to Duluth my library doesn't carry them that way. Darn it anyways!

3. The Caster Chronicles by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
I am only two books behind since the new one just came out so I really need to get on that! I love this series so much and cannot wait for the movie! Gah!!! 

4. The Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa
I've only read the first two books so I am super behind. I loved this series! I have no idea why I keep pushing it back.  Seriously, people. Stop coming out with new books so I can catch up, please.

5. Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr 
Another series that I have no idea why I stopped on it. Maybe because I ran out of money and I need to own them all! They're so good!  

6. The Immortals by Alyson Noel  
I've only read the first two of these. It's not my favorite series ever but I think it's really interesting and has a lot of potential. But I brought the first two and, since I'm a crazy person, I have to buy all the them. So they are on the to-buy list, just not that high.

7. Divergent series by Veronica Roth 
I AM BUYING INSURGENT TODAY! I wanted to read it the moment I finished Divergent. And I have a Barnes and Noble coupon and it is payday today. It will be mine!  

8. Touch series by Laurie Faria Stolarz 
I love Stolarz so much. I fell in love with her back in 2003 with her Blue is for Nightmares series. I have every one of the books she written (besides the rest of this series) and I cannot wait to finish this series.

9. Wicca series by Cate Tiernan 
 Dude I started this series back in middle school. I am 22 now. What the hell! I need to get back on these. 

10. Soul Screamers by Rachel Vincent 

I love this series.  But I think I am afraid to keep reading. What if bad things happen?! I can't. I just can't.   


I actually have a whole shelf on Goodreads that are just series I need to finish. Seriously. But that's definitely the ones I need to get on right away!

What did you pick as your freebie? 

Daily Dose (10)

Hello, one and all! Guess what?! I have the internets again! That means we are back to our regular schedule blogging! Woohooo! So excited! Let's get this going!

Hosted by Good Golly Miss Holly (or at least it used to be but she hasn't done it in awhile) I don't own any of these pictures.

Top Ten Tuesdays: Favorite Young Adult Covers of 2012

Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish

Oooooh I am so excited to write this post. I am such a cover whore so this is going to be so much fun. I had to seriously narrow it down to favorite young adult covers of this year or else this post would have gone on for ever! Would have never been able to pick just ten! Here we go!

1. City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare
Yay! A Jace and Clary cover! Soooo good! And super excited about this book!

2. Endlessly by Kiersten White
I think all of her covers are gorgeous. This one is my least favorite of the three, but is still awesome!

3. Dreamless by Josephine Angelini
Another beautiful cover! Ugh can't wait to read this book! It's going to be so awesome!!!

4. Girl of Nightmares by Kendare Blake
Look how hauntingly beautiful that is! Poor Anna! I wouldn't wanna be stuck there, but it does make for an awesome cover!

5. The Selection by Keira Cass
I really have a thing for covers with girls in dresses huh? This book sounds so good and I love the cover. The reflections of her in the glass is my favorite part.

6. The Wood Queen by Karen Mahoney
Now this isn't the main cover I've been seeing, but I like it so much better.  I think it fits in with the Iron Witch cover better.

7. The Fine Art of Truth or Dare by Melissa Jensen
Such a cute and playful cover. As soon as I saw this I knew I had to pick it up. Too adorable.

8. Illuminate by Aimee Agresti
I love the outline of wings on the wall behind her and the swirls around the cover.

9. Timepiece by Myra McEntire
Okay, I still haven't read Hourglass, but that doesn't stop this from being an amazing cover! I really need to get around to the first one soon!

10. Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers
I am in love with this cover and this idea. Can't wait to read this book!!!


Alright there are my favorites (so far at least). What are yours?
