Synopsis

From the author of My Life Next Door comes a swoony summertime romance full of expectation and regret, humor and hard questions.
Gwen Castle’s Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer. He’s a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners who keep the island’s summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she’ll never escape her past—or the island—Gwen’s dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true—about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself—with what really is.

This just sounds amazing and I want my hands on it now! I am loving Contemporary at the moment and this seems like it’s right up my path. Also lets talk about the breathtaking cover, simply gorgeous. We have quite a while till this comes out and I would die for an ARC of it.

What are you waiting on this Wednesday?

Top Ten Books I Read In 2013

Dec 30, 2013

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. All bloggers are then welcomed to join. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Books I Read In 2013

This was very very very x10000 times hard for me. I read so many amazing book this year. So it was pretty hard choosing 10 books from the 54 I read this year. So I cheated a little. I just could not choose. These are in no order at all, because that would be absolutely impossible for me to choose. Some of these books have reviews or reviews soon to come so just click on the covers to read them.

1. Bloodlines Series by Richelle Mead – I read all 4 books this year because I didn’t really keep up with all this book news before so I only really found out about them at the end of last year. I adore the Vampire Academy Series if you didn’t know that already and I was not disappointed in any of the Bloodlines Books at all. They just take me to another world, make me feel so many emotions. I cannot explain it. I can read these books over and over again.

2.Pawn (The Blackcoat Rebellion #1) by Aimee Carter – I have talked about Pawn so much in the last month or two. I just love it. I think it’s an amazing dystopian novel and it just blew me away. I had not read anything my Aimee Carter but I knew of her work. I cannot wait for book 2, Captive to be released

3. Pushing the Limits (Pushing the Limits #1) by Katie McGarry – I just recently finished reading Pushing The Limits and boy what have I been missing out on? It was just an amazing and emotional read. Pushing the Limits has been on my list to buy for a long time, and I just kept putting it off, don’t know why I did that.

4. Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna #1) by Kendare Blake – I didn’t think I would like this book at all, it was just not my thing, I am a total scaredey cat. But gosh boy I was wrong, yes I was Kinda scared at parts but this book blew me away. The writing was beautiful and it drew me from the start. I have the second book on my shelf and I plan to read it as soon as I can.

5. Perfect Chemistry (Perfect Chemistry #1) by Simone Elkeles – I have loved a lot of contemporary novels this year and this is one of them. I loved it to bits. It was fun, emotional, interesting, unique I could go on and on. Simone Elkeles has recently become one of my favourite authors that I have recently read. I am dying to read the next 2 books in this series.

6. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green – This book brought out so many emotions in me, I was crying like a baby. I remember going down stairs after I read it with tears just running down my face. It was just a beautiful story that could happen to anyone. It took my breath away.

7. Angelfall (Penryn & End of Days #1) by Susan Ee – Wow this books blew me out of the water. It wasn’t your typical books about fallen Angels. It was beautifully written. Also the fact that the book was not heavily relying on romance made it that much better. It showed the growth of the characters that was unbelievable. I could not put the book down at any moment.

8. Divergent (Divergent #1) by Veronica Roth – I was really late getting into the Divergent books and I am bummed because it was truly such a fun read. Even if I did have a few problems with it. It had so much more that just blew me out of the water. It took me to another world, I could imagine what was going on, I could feel the pain. The world was so interesting, so unbelievable yet very believable.

9. Under The Never Sky (Under the Never Sky #1) by Veronica Rossi – I had never heard about this before I picked it up. it was in the bargain on The Book Deopistory but I am very glad I did. This has to be one of my favourite Dystopian/Post-Apocalyptic of the year, it was just amazingly written, interesting, new, vibrant. It has romance, fights, emotions it was everything I could of asked for in a book.

10. Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan – I have no idea why I waited so long to read this series, I think maybe because I never found the first book in the shops. But I finally got around to it, and I was not disappointed. They are amazing reads that never let me down. They were always fun to read. I am planning to get my brother to read them soon.

11. Looking For Alaska by John Green -I know what you are thinking, this is 11, well I just could not choose it was too hard. But anyway. I just loved Looking for Alaska it was emotional yet very inspiring in a way. I loved that we got to hear from a male perspective because I am so used to a female. it was different. I love John Green that’s it.

So that’s it my Top 11 Books for the year! I really loved all the books I read this year and it was hard to choice 11. Do we have any of the same this year? What was on your list.

This is also the last Top Ten Tuesday for the Year. I hope that you have enjoyed and have a Happy New Year
