Today, I am back with another cover reveal that I am absolutely crazy about! It just screams adventure and doom! Lol, this-is-what-it-has-all-come-to doom!

I haven't read the first two books in this series but after this, I think I definitely will. Plus, they have received nothing but a whole lot of awesome praise from fellow book bloggers. So, without further ado, I present to you the cover of Release, book three in M. R. Merrick's The Protector series.

No More Feedburner

So, just a couple of nights ago or maybe last week (I lose count of my days like that) Feedburner burnt out. I'm not too savvy with what that even means or why, but in simpler terms: there's no more Feedburner subscriptions and...I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

Cover Reveal: Losing It by Cora Carmack

Lately, YA contemporary and a whole lot of New Adult has been all up in my grill and all the books I've been reading have been cooking up somethin' delish! I just can't get enough of it; NA explores this whole other phase of your life, where you transition from being an adolescent into an adult and...it's all very exciting and refreshing to read about.

Today's cover reveal is about an upcoming NA release that I seriously cannot wait to get my hands on. And its cover is like...the most perfect thing I've ever seen. Well, in correlation to its synopsis.

Momo's Playlist (6): Live While We're Young

I haven't done one of these posts in a long while but I have a song that I wanted to share really badly with all of you.

As you all probably know, I am a huge One Direction fan, not as huge as a The Maine fan but...big enough. Anyway, just recently, they released a new song and a new music video. Aah, freaks the freak out! And of course, I lalalove it! I mean, they can't disappoint! Their songs are so uplifting and happy and addictive--makes me want to sing along all the time! But I mean, even if you don't want to sing along, you're mouth will go off without you! That's how addictive they are.

Okay, I'll stop babbling and show you guys the video already! Although, there will most likely be more babbling after.

Cover Reveal: Opal by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Jennifer L. Armentrout's Lux series has taken the blog world by storm! Today, along with a billion, zillion other blogs, Books Over Boys is here to help reveal the cover to Opal, book three in the Lux series.

And so I had this idea...

So, I'm telling myself that I'm crazy for letting this idea take control and run wild because I don't even know if it will take off or whatever and I have no clue where I'm really going with this but anyway...I was thinking about starting this weekly event called--well, I don't have a name for it yet, but basically I'll be interviewing an author every week, sorta like a meme but not really, in the hopes that it will help promote the author and their novel.

Book Launch with Talia Vance + Special Guests

Yesterday afternoon was Talia Vance's book launch for her debut, Silver. At first, I had no idea it was taking place so close to me because well...the only signing events I attend are in the San Francisco bay area. Anyway, the signing was amazing and all the authors were so sweet and awesome! I haven't been to many book signings so when I do attend, I tend to always have a mini freak-the-freak-out attack just because I'm still in shock that I'm standing less than a foot away from so-and-so author. Also, I was not lying when I said, "In real life, when you first meet me, I'm like...the most shy person ever. You'd think you were talking about two different people," in the about me section of this blog. It just takes me a while to be comfortable...even if we talk on a daily basis, Tara! ;)

Books Over Boys Lays It All On the Line

Author Interview with Elizabeth J. Kolodziej

With Trent gone, Faith, the last witch in the world, feels she cannot go on without him. The pain grows so intense that she shuts out her friends and loved ones to be alone, unsure of what to think about the paranormal world anymore. But when on a trip to see Gordon she realizes what she can do to make the pain go away. A spell.

The spell ends up back firing and Faith has now forgotten the past six months. All the memories of vampires, werewolves, and her magical training have vanished. And the first to find her is Louis who comes to whisk her away and change the course of her life forever.

Webs of lies and deceit have Faith feeling powerless and so scared that when Louis gives her the option of becoming a slayer she takes it, hoping to get revenge on the race she believes stole the past six months of her life away. With the Goddess Circe interfering, Lilith still missing and Faith unable to remember Trent, no one knows what will happen next!

However, when a stranger enters her life bringing with him secrets to her missing memories, Faith can no longer trust those around her and must figure out for herself who is good and who is evil, the world of vampires and werewolves or that of slayers. The coin is still up in the air and Faith must make a choice of where her devotions lie.

52 Reasons to Love Jessica Brody Blog Tour: Excerpt + Giveaway

Jessica Brody is touring the blogosphere to promote her most recent novel, 52 Reasons to Hate My Father at various book blogs. Along the way, we are all sharing one of 52 reasons as to why you should totally love Jessica Brody!

If you read all the way to the end, I have a special treat for you. Promise. ;)

Being America’s favorite heiress is a dirty job, but someone’s gotta do it.

Lexington Larrabee has never to work a day in her life. After all, she’s the heiress to the multi-billion-dollar Larrabee Media empire. And heiresses are not supposed to work. But then again, they’re not supposed to crash brand new Mercedes convertibles into convenience stores on Sunset Blvd either.

Which is why, on Lexi’s eighteenth birthday, her ever-absent, tycoon father decides to take a more proactive approach to her wayward life. Every week for the next year, she will have to take on a different low-wage job if she ever wants to receive her beloved trust fund. But if there’s anything worse than working as a maid, a dishwasher, and a fast-food restaurant employee, it’s dealing with Luke, the arrogant, albeit moderately attractive, college intern her father has assigned to keep tabs on her.

In a hilarious “comedy of heiress” about family, forgiveness, good intentions, and best of all, second chances, Lexi learns that love can be unconditional, money can be immaterial, and, regardless of age, everyone needs a little saving. And although she might have 52 reasons to hate her father, she only needs one reason to love him.
