Evernight and A New Favorite Author

What really attracted me to this books was the cover. I'm such a sucker for good covers--so much so that I bought this hardcover without knowing a thing about it.

I got my money's worth.

Evernight started quietly, lulled me into a gauzy world of familiar teenage angst and slightly Gothic weirdness, then grabbed me by the, er, throat.

I usually do not have time to relax and enjoy a book. This one didn't let me go. I had to finish it. Bianca and Lucas are compelling three-dimensional characters, joined by a whole supporting cast of Gargoyley goodness. I'm thrilled to know there are several more books in the series.

Because like any...tasty morsel...it's always nice to know there are more where that came from!

    I think the cover looks like the cover for 'The Z Word'! I agree, it is awesome!

    BTW, my favorite line from 'The Z Word' is
    'Seffy's brows went up. “You're going to sing? God, all we need now is a herd of unicorns.”' This CRACKED me up! It's a great book, loads of humor and very compelling!

Mid-Century Mayhem  finally gets some closure! Modern day Nashville and 1950s Detroit clash worse than an IKEA futon and a plaid Barcalounger when a free-spirited interior designer and a strait-laced automotive engineer find themselves in another time. Olivia Haugen and Kyle Daniels have no idea why they've ended up in 1954 Michigan, but it's probably not because of all the swank mid-century furnishings. Discovering the reason might have something to do with a wily salvage warehouse owner and her not-so-little shop of secrets. After ending on a cliffhanger, Kyle Daniels and Olivia Haugen finally get to finish their stories.  Presenting Books 2 and 3 in the Time Travel By Design series... In Book two,  Gothic Revival , Olivia Haugen and Kyle Daniels are barely on speaking terms in modern day Nashville—not helped by Kyle’s cranky aunt Constance whose apparent sole purpose in life is to see them walk down the aisle. Olivia and Kyle end up taking a trip down an ai
