Spider's Bite (Elemental Assassin, #1) by Jennifer Estep

Book:
Spider's Bite by Jennifer Estep
Finished: 20.09.12
Rating: 5 Stars
Review: This book was one hell of a adventure for me :) Main character Gina is an assassin and she takes one more job before having vacation. The job should be easy in and out, but something goes wrong and she ends up in a lot of trouble. The police is looking her and people who hired her wants her dead.

The Reluctant Dom by Tymber Dalton
Book:The Reluctant Dom
Rating:★★★★★
Finished: 21/9/2012
Review:I finished 10 minutes ago .I'm speechless , I have to let it rest a bit to be able to write anything about it!!!!
*Later* I didn't cry reading it but had to swallow a lump in my throat for half of the book. (view spoiler)

link angsty and emotional and link to lyrics: first paragraph of the book "I made her three promises when we got married, Seth. I would never lie to her. I would always take care of her. I would protect her, never let anyone hurt her ever again."

Obsessed by Lisa Sanchez

Book: Obsessed by Lisa Sanchez
Rating:★★★
Finished: 9/21/12
Review: Hmm, I liked it, but I didn't love it. I am always a fan of the tormented heroine, possessive/protective hero storyline, but there were bits of this that were a little over the top for me.

link to song: angst and a bridge on the cover


message 224: by ShoSho , Moderator (last edited Sep 22, 2012 01:28AM) (new)

ShoSho  (shoshost) | 12263 comments Yaay half way there,
I liked that story line too Megan, what was about it that you didn't like?


message 225: by ~Megan~ (new)

~Megan~ (megadee) Some of the writing was choppy, and some of the plot points were unbelievable. Also, both the hero and the heroine had been through an almost ridiculous amount of trauma. I liked it, just not the best of these kind of stories that I've read.


message 226: by Lisa Kay, Moderator (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Ah! Thanks for the review, Megan!

message 228: by ~Megan~ (new)

~Megan~ (megadee) I don't know, but it's been pretty easy to match up books to the songs so far! That makes me happy!

Happy anniversary to you!!!! :))

Book: Speak
Rating:★★★★★
Finished: 9/24/12
Link: Angsty/Emotionally charged book

It has been nearly 2 years since the last time I read Speak. This is the second time I have read it. Both times I truly enjoyed this book. It is not one that you want to constantly reread because of how sad it is.
Just like the last time I read it I had a feeling of outrage that anyone would ever dare to consider banning this book. Just as the last time I read it, I truly identify with Melinda. I was a social outcast for the majority of school years. I remember the angst that came with it. I would never want to go through that again. Fortunately I never had anything as horrible as what she went through happen. I love that the end of the book has a message of hope. That you can survive through even life's toughest times.

ShoSho  (shoshost) | 12263 comments Week 4: ♩♪ "I'm Yours" - Jason Mraz (2008)

Possible Links: ♩♪ Any book published between 2000 and 2010. ♩♪ A book with the words I"M or YOURS in the title. ♩♪ A book with main character or author with the name JASON or surname MRAZ. ♩♪ A book featuring a HAT on the cover. ♩♪ A book about FATE or DIVINE INTERVENTION.

*These are just some ideas to help you along. Feel free to come up with your own, but I will be checking to make sure it's a valid link to the song. For more ideas, see the lyrics
