The Goddess Inheritance (The Goddess Test #3) by Aimee Carter I actually do enjoy this series. And after that cliffhanger in the second book ? I'm practically salivating over this one.

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at  Breaking the Spine  in which we showcase upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating. The Mark of Athena (Heroes of Olympus #3) by Rick Riordan  Release Date: October 2, 2012 Goodreads Synopsis: Annabeth is terrified. Just when she’s about to be reunited with Percy—after six months of being apart, thanks to Hera—it looks like Camp Jupiter is preparing for war. As Annabeth and her friends Jason, Piper, and Leo fly in on the Argo II, she can’t blame the Roman demigods for thinking the ship is a Greek weapon. With its steaming bronze dragon masthead, Leo’s fantastical creation doesn’t appear friendly. Annabeth hopes that the sight of their praetor Jason on deck will reassure the Romans that the visitors from Camp Half-Blood are coming in peace. And that’s only one of her worries. In her pocket Annabeth carries a gift from her mother that came with an unnerving demand: Follow the Mark of Athena. Avenge me. Annabeth al...

Half-Blood (Covenant #1) by Jennifer A. Armentrout Pages: 281 Source: Bought/Amazon Format: ebook Rating: I liked it Goodreads Synopsis:  The Hematoi descend from the unions of gods and mortals, and the children of two Hematoi-pure-bloods-have godlike powers. Children of Hematoi and mortals-well, not so much. Half-bloods only have two options: become trained Sentinels who hunt and kill daimons or become servants in the homes of the pures. Seventeen-year-old Alexandria would rather risk her life fighting than waste it scrubbing toilets, but she may end up slumming it anyway. There are several rules that students at the Covenant must follow. Alex has problems with them all, but especially rule #1:Relationships between pures and halfs are forbidden. Unfortunately, she's crushing hard on the totally hot pure-blood Aiden. But falling for Aiden isn't her biggest problem--staying alive long enough to graduate the Covenant and become a Sentinel is. If she fails in her duty, she faces a...

Hey y'all. I know that the blog has been....well, pretty much non-existant. I know I said not to long ago that I was going to get into the swing of things and start blogging again. Obviously this was not the case. Since I just started college and it's completely different from anything I've done before, I've really been focusing on it and blogging and reading have gone to the back of my priority list. Which is sad because I love reading! Therefore, it is my goal to start up again. I will take the time to read and relax and I will catch up. I've started to get into the routine so I know when I can relax and read and so on. In reality, I miss it. I miss y'all!  I won't promise anything. I can only try and do my best. I probably won't have much up this week because I'm so behind on my reading, but hopefully next week I'll start getting in the swing of things. I've really got to catch up on those Netgalley books! After about 2 or 3 weeks, if I fi...
