Books of July

Books Read in July
Another slow month of reading and not all of them that I did read I loved although I didn't DNF a book this month so that's a plus.

Here's what I read in July:

• Can't Help Falling by Kara Isaac - 2/5
• Charged (Saints of Denver, #2) by Jay Crownover - 5/5
• Me Before You (Me Before You, #1) by Jojo Moyes - 2/5
• A Fine Mess (Over the Top, #2) by Kelly Siskind - 2.5/5
• The Secret Fire (The Alchemist Chronicles, #1) by C.J. Daugherty & Carina Rozenfeld - 3.5/5

And the book of the month goes too...

Charged (Saints of Denver, #2) by Jay Crownover

Synopsis:

The next book in the smoking hot SAINTS OF DENVER series from NYT bestselling author of the MARKED MEN series, Jay Crownover

Avett Walker and Quaid Jackson’s worlds have no reason to collide. Quaid is a high powered criminal attorney as slick as he is handsome, and Avett is a pink-haired troublemaker with a bad attitude and a history of picking the wrong men.

When Avett lands in a sea of hot water because of one terrible mistake, the only person who can get her out of it is this insanely sexy lawyer. The last thing on earth she wants to do is rely on a man who thinks of her as nothing more than a nuisance, yet there is something about him that makes her want to convince him to loosen his tie and have a little fun…with her. Quaid never takes on clients like Avett. She could stand to learn a hard lesson or two, but something about her guileless hazel eyes intrigues him. But keeping their relationship strictly business is becoming more impossible with each day he spends with her.

They have to figure out a way to get along and keep their hands off each other – because the chemistry between them is beyond charged.

In the same series as my book of the month in June and what's even better is that this was a lot better than the first. This one was so addictive and I can't wait to continue on with this series.

Waiting on Wednesday - Stealing Snow by Danielle Paige

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Here's this week's book that I can't wait for...

Stealing Snow (Stealing Snow, #1) by Danielle Paige

Expected Publication: 27th September 2016

Synopsis:Seventeen-year-old Snow has spent the majority of her life within the walls of the Whittaker Institute, a high security mental hospital in upstate New York. Deep down, she knows she's not crazy and doesn't belong there. When she meets a mysterious, handsome new orderly and dreams about a strange twisted tree she realizes she must escape and figure out who she really is.
Using her trusting friend Bale as a distraction, Snow breaks free and races into the nearby woods. Suddenly, everything isn't what it seems, the line between reality and fantasy begins to blur, and she finds herself in icy Algid--her true home--with witches, thieves, and a strangely alluring boy named Kai, none of whom she's sure she can trust. As secret after secret is revealed, Snow discovers that she is on the run from a royal lineage she's destined to inherit, a father more powerful and ruthless than she could have imagined, and choices of the heart that could change the fate of everything...including Snow's return to the world she once knew.
This breathtaking first volume begins the story of how Snow becomes a villain, a queen, and ultimately a hero.

There's quite a bit of a wait for this one but I just had to share this one as it sounds so good and I can't wait to get my hands on this one, I just hope the cover changes as I'm not a fan of it.

Waiting on Wednesday #20

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Here's this week's book I can't wait for...

Dorothy Must Die (Dorothy Must Die, #1) by Danielle Paige

Expected Publication: 1st April 2013

Blurb:

I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask to be some kind of hero.
But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado—taking you with it—you have no choice but to go along, you know?

Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little blue birds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion. There's still the yellow brick road, though—but even that's crumbling.

What happened?
Dorothy. They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe.

My name is Amy Gumm—and I'm the other girl from Kansas.
I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked.
I've been trained to fight.
And I have a mission:
Remove the Tin Woodman's heart.
Steal the Scarecrow's brain.
Take the Lion's courage.
Then and only then—Dorothy must die!

Someone on Facebook mentioned this book and I had to take a look and ever since I have been dying to read it. Not too long to wait now!
