Hey everyone,
So it's Sunday again! and it is Dec 5th, only 20 days until Christmas! and if you are Jewish, happy Hanukkah!
So I got 3 books for review this week:
From Bloomsbury I received:
Zara and Nick are soul mates, meant to be together forever. But that's not quite how things have worked out. For starters, well, Nick is dead. Supposedly, he's been taken to a mythic place for warriors known as Valhalla, so Zara and her friends might be able to get him back. But it's taking time, and meanwhile a group of evil pixies is devastating Bedford, with more teens going missing every day. An all-out war seems imminent, and the good guys need all the warriors they can find. But how to get to Valhalla? And even if Zara and her friends discover the way, there's that other small problem: Zara's been pixie kissed. When she finds Nick, will he even want to go with her? Especially since she hasn't turned into just any pixie. . . She's Astley's queen.
Hunter Wild is the youngest in a long line of elite vampire hunters, a
legacy that is both a blessing and a curse at the secret Helios-Ra
Academy, where she excels at just about everything. Thanks to her
friendship with Kieran Black, Hunter receives a special invitation to
attend the coronation of Helena Drake, and for the first time, she sees
the difference between vampires that must be hunted and vampires that
can become friends—or even more. When students at the academy fall
victim to a mysterious illness, Hunter suspects they are under attack
from within. She will need someone she can trust to help her save the
future of Helios-Ra . . . help that shockingly comes in the form of
Quinn Drake, a drop-dead gorgeous vampire. Who said senior year would
be easy?
And from Simon and Schuster...
What if you knew exactly when you would die?
Thanks to modern science, every human being has become a ticking genetic time bomb—males only live to age twenty-five, and females only live to age twenty. In this bleak landscape, young girls are kidnapped and forced into polygamous marriages to keep the population from dying out.
When sixteen-year-old Rhine Ellery is taken by the Gatherers to become a bride, she enters a world of wealth and privilege. Despite her husband Linden's genuine love for her, and a tenuous trust among her sister wives, Rhine has one purpose: to escape—to find her twin brother and go home.
But Rhine has more to contend with than losing her freedom. Linden's eccentric father is bent on finding an antidote to the genetic virus that is getting closer to taking his son, even if it means collecting corpses in order to test his experiments. With the help of Gabriel, a servant Rhine is growing dangerously attracted to, Rhine attempts to break free, in the limited time she has left.
I'm pretty excited about what I got! But what did you all get???
