Three Wishes Wednesday #15

Hello my poppets! I haven't done one of these in forever! ( No Joke!) Anyway, since the week before my Supernatural Showdown I haven't posted a wishlist so this week I am determined to bring three of my WANTED - Dead or Alive Books! Anyway here they are ....

1) The DUFF by Kody Keplinger

Release Date - September 7th 2010

Description - Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper is cynical and loyal, and she doesn't think she's the prettiest of her friends by a long shot. She's also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. In fact, Bianca hates him. And when he nicknames her "Duffy," she throws her Coke in his face. But things aren't so great at home right now. Desperate for a distraction, Bianca ends up kissing Wesley. And likes it. Eager for escape, she throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with Wesley. Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out that Wesley isn't such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she's falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone. (Goodreads)

2) I Now Pronounce You As Someone Else by Erin McCahan

Release Date - June 1st 2010
Decription - Seventeen-year-old Bronwen Oliver doesn't just want a family. She has one of those, and there's nothing terribly wrong with them apart from bickering grandparents, an image-obsessed mother and a brother she describes simply as Jesus. But there's no natural sense of connection between Bronwen and her family, leaving her with the belief -- and the hope -- that she was switched at birth, that she was never supposed to be Bronwen Oliver but someone else entirely. When she begins dating college senior Jared Sondervan, she finds herself thoroughly embraced by the loving family she has always wanted and does not hesitate to say yes when Jared proposes on her 18th birhday. Plans for the Perfect Beach Wedding before her junior year of college become plans for the Perfect Beach Wedding before her freshman year of college. And a wedding so soon isn't exactly what Bronwen wants. But Jared is. And his family is. Or so she thinks. Before Bronwen can determine what she truly wants, she must first determine who she truly is, and the answer, she discovers, is only partially what she thought it was. She wasn't switched at birth, but she's also not Bronwen Oliver and hasn't been for a very long time. (Goodreads)

3) The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff

Release Date - September 21st 2010
Description - Mackie Doyle seems like everyone else in the perfect little town of Gentry, but he is living with a fatal secret - he is a Replacement, left in the crib of a human baby sixteen years ago. Now the creatures under the hill want him back, and Mackie must decide where he really belongs and what he really wants. A month ago, Mackie might have told them to buzz off. But now, with a budding relationship with tough, wounded, beautiful Tate, Mackie has too much to lose. Will love finally make him worthy of the human world? (Goodreads)

That's all my wishes for this week! I love the cover of The DUFF! It's so cute <3 The Replacement remonds me of E.T. and I Now Pronounce You As Someone Else is just a fantatsic title! What's on your wishlist?

And she really doesn’t need to run into Luke Martin in the Feminine Hygiene Products aisle while her dad Googles ‘menstruation’ on his Blackberry. But ‘freak-of-nature’ takes on a whole new meaning when raging hormones and bath salts bring on another metamorphosis—complete with scales and a tail. And when Jade learns she’s inherited her mermaid tendencies from her late mother’s side of the family, it raises the question; if Mom was once a mermaid, did she really drown that day last summer? Jade is determined to find out. Though, how does a plus-sized, aqua-phobic mer-girl go about doing that, exactly ... especially when Luke from aisle six seems to be the only person who might be able to help

Three Wishes Wednesday #11 (Faerie Edition)

Following the Faerietale theme this week I decided to do my Three Wishes on Faerie Books as well. Nothing more to say here they are...

1) Bitter Frost by Kailin Gow

Releases Date - June 1st 2010

Why- Duh, it's about faeries. The cover creeps me out though....*shivers* Has anyone seen the grudge it kinda remind of the chick from that movie...

Description - All her life, Breena had always dreamed about fairies as though she lived among them...beautiful fairies living among mortals and living in Feyland. In her dreams, he was always there the breathtakingly handsome but dangerous Winter Prince, Kian, who is her intended. When Breena turns sixteen, she begins seeing fairies and other creatures mortals don t see. Her best friend Logan, suddenly acts very protective. Then she sees Kian, who seems intent on finding her and carrying her off to Feyland. That's fine and all, but for the fact that humans rarely survive a trip to Feyland, a kiss from a fairy generally means death to the human unless that human has fairy blood in them or is very strong, and although Kian seemed to be her intended, he seems to hate her and wants her dead. [close]

2) Spell Hunter by R.J Anderson

Release Date - 28th April 2009

Why- Besides the obvious, I have been wanting to read this one since the second book the second book came out last month ( Wayfarer ) So I have to pick this one up before reading the other one.

Description- Deep inside the great Oak lies a dying faery realm, bursting with secrets instead of magic. Long ago the faeries mysteriously lost their magic. Robbed of their powers, they have become selfish and dull-witted. Now their numbers are dwindling and their very survival is at stake. Only one young faery—Knife—is determined to find out where her people's magic has gone and try to get it back. Unlike her sisters, Knife is fierce and independent. She's not afraid of anything—not the vicious crows, the strict Faery Queen, or the fascinating humans living nearby. But when Knife disobeys the Faery Queen and befriends a human named Paul, her quest becomes more dangerous than she realizes. Can Knife trust Paul to help, or has she brought the faeries even closer to the brink of destruction?


3) Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa

Release Date- 1st August 2010

Why- Just finished the first one can't wait to get my hands on the second. Besides I HEART the cover it's so pretty. I like it better than the first cover because it's kinda purpleish.

Description- Half Summer faery princess, half human, Meghan has never fit in anywhere. Deserted by the Winter prince she thought loved her, she is prisoner to the Winter faery queen. As war looms between Summer and Winter, Meghan knows that the real danger comes from the Iron Fey, iron-bound faeries that only she and her absent prince have seen. But no one believes her. Worse, Meghan's own fey powers have been cut off. She's alone in Faery with only her wits for help. Trusting anyone would be foolish. Trusting a seeming traitor could be deadly. But even as she grows a backbone of iron, Meghan can't help but hear the whispers of longing in her all-too-human heart.

Well, that's my Faerie Edition of Three Wishes Wednesday. What are you wishing for this week?

1) Torment by Lauren Kate

Why- I wasn't actually planning to read this one after the first book which I thought was pretty much a disappointment and a waste of paper (nothing was accomplished in the book BIG FAT CIRCLE)  but I really curious with what's going to happen for a lot of questions were left unanswered. Also it does have a beautiful cover.

At the school Luce discovers what the Shadows that have followed her all her life mean - and how to manipulate them to see into her other lives. Yet the more Luce learns about herself, the more she realizes that the past is her only key to unlocking her future...and that Daniel hasn't told her everything. What if his version of the past isn't actually the way things happened...what if Luce was really meant to be with someone else?

Release Date - March 4th 2010

Why- Wait until you hear the storyline, it actually sound so good and loving the cover can't hurt either :P

That is, until Justine goes cliff-diving one night near the family’s vacation house in Maine, and her lifeless body washes up on shore the next day. Though her parents hope that they’ll be able to find closure back in Boston, Vanessa can’t help feeling that her sister’s death wasn’t an accident.

Why - The red cover is addictive don't you think?

Description - Freshman year at Harvard--glamorous parties, blossoming friendships, steamy romances, and scandalous secrets. Skip the campus tour and get right to the good stuff: classes are for scoping guys (and their Facebook profiles), not taking notes. The library is for study dates (the medieval history stacks get a lot of action), not studying. And success is a 4.0 GPA... plus getting into the most exclusive parties. How will Callie--a California girl with brains, beauty, and big dreams--and her three roommates survive?

Well tha's what I'm wishing for. What do you have on your wishlist?

Three Wishes Wednesday #8

Anyway, I have found some Fantabulous new reads that I realllllllly want to read :P and away we go.....

1) Anxious Hearts by Tucker Shaw

Release Date- 1st May 2010

Why- To be truthful the cover kinda sold me. The book sounds really good but it was really the cover that made me go yup defeinitly worth reading, going to read it.

Description- “Evangeline,” he repeated, calling at a whisper. “Evangeline.” He was not calling that she may hear, he was calling that somehow her soul might know that he was devoted entirely to her, only to her. “Evangeline, I will find you.” Eva and Gabe explore the golden forest of their seaside Maine town, unknowingly tracing the footsteps of two teens, Evangeline and Gabriel, who once lived in the idyllic wooded village of Acadia more than one hundred years ago. On the day that Evangeline and Gabriel were be wed, their village was attacked and the two were separated. And now in the present, Gabe has mysteriously disappeared from Eva.

2) Bleeding Violets by Dia Reeves

Release Date- 5th January 2010

Why- Purple is my favourite colour, the cover is extremely purple does that ring a bell?

Description - Love can be a dangerous thing.... Hanna simply wants to be loved.

3) Matched by Ally Condie

Release Date- 30th November 2010

Why- I have been wanting read this book for the last week or so ever since I discovered it on a bookish blog. OMG it sounds sooooooooooooo good. Guys, I am so excited for this that I would probably trade my whole TBR pile for it! This sound absolutely amazing!

Three Wishes Wednesday #7

Hi everyone! Guess what? It's Wednesday! So, it's time for Three Wishes Wednesday! Now, Three Wishes Wednesday is a weekly blog feature here ( different from a meme) at Badass Bookie. Every Wednesday I post three books that I would do anything to get my hands (even if it means getting on my knees and living on water for a week) Anyway so basically it is like a wishlist  and this week I'm wishing for ( Are you there God/ Santa/ Fairy Godmother?) .....

1) Wanted ( Pretty Little Liars #8) by Sara Shepard

Release Date - June 8th 2010

Why- If you haven't already started reading this series I suggest you do. It is epicly awesomely addictive. It is my favourite Mystery/ Thriller series. Designer brands mixed with murder and pretty little rich girls equals one great novel! Plus, every one of them as a killer cliff hanger ending so I'm like dying to read what happens next. Plus it is now a TV Series !!!!! (Aired last night I think)

Description- In Rosewood, majestic estates sprawl for acres, and Tiffany toggle bracelets dangle from every girl's wrist. But not all that glitters is gold, and the town harbors secrets darker than anyone could imagine—like the truth about what really happened the night Alison DiLaurentis went missing. . . . Back in middle school, Ali plucked Emily, Hanna, Aria, and Spencer from obscurity and turned them into the beautiful, popular girls everyone wanted to be. Ali was the best friend they ever had. But she also made them do terrible things and taunted them with their worst secrets. Now, three years later, all their questions about Ali have finally been answered and they can put this awful chapter of their lives behind them. Or so they think.

Not every story has a happy ending, especially when four pretty little liars have done so many wicked things. In the dramatic conclusion of Sara Shepard's bestselling Pretty Little Liars series, Emily, Hanna, Aria, and Spencer could get everything they've ever wanted—unless A has one more horrifying twist in store. ( Taken of Goodreads)

2) Lonely Werewolf Girl by Martin Millar

Releases Date - March 4th 2010

Why- I went to the shops today and was going to purchase this book. * pulls out wallet and there is ive bucks* I am sadly I think broke so I wasn't able to buy it. D: But it sound sooooo good that I couldn't NOT put it in my wishlist.

Description - While teenage werewolf Kalix MacRinnalch is being pursued through the streets of London by murderous hunters, her sister, the Werewolf Enchantress, is busy designing clothes for the Fire Queen. Meanwhile, in the Scottish Highlands, the MacRinnalch Clan is plotting and feuding after the head of the clan suddenly dies intestate. As the court intrigue threatens to blow up into all-out civil war, the competing factions determine that Kalix is the swing vote necessary to assume leadership of the clan. Unfortunately, Kalix isn’t really into clan politics — laudanum’s more her thing. Even more unfortunately, Kalix is the reason the head of the clan ended up dead, which is why she’s now on the lam in London. . . This expansive tale of werewolves in the modern world — friendly werewolves, fashionista werewolves, troubled teenage werewolves, cross-dressing werewolves, werewolves of every sort — is hard-edged, hilarious, and utterly believable.

3) Mockingjay by Suznne Collins

Release Date - 24th August 2010

Why- This is third (and last) book of the Hunger Games Trilogy. Now, I am addicted to the hunger games incase you guys didn't know and I don't think I can wait til August.....but seriouly one of the best series ever written!

Description - Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has survived the Hunger Games twice. But now that she’s made it out of the bloody arena alive, she’s still not safe. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge. Who do they think should pay for the unrest? Katniss. And what’s worse, President Snow has made it clear that no one else is safe either. Not Katniss’s family, not her friends, not the people of District 12. Powerful and haunting, this thrilling final installment of Suzanne Collins’s groundbreaking The Hunger Games trilogy promises to be one of the most talked about books of the year.

Three Wishes Wednesday #5

Hey hey guys! It's wednesday meaning it's Three Wishes Wednesday!!! Straight to the point this week we have......
1) Forgot You by Jennifer Echols

Release Date - 20th July 2010

Why- I haven't read anything by this author but have heard great things about her books. So I thought why not? If I'm going to read her book might as well read the newest one. So this is one that I'm looking out for.

Description- There’s a lot Zoey would like to forget. Like how her father has knocked up his twenty-four-year old girlfriend. Like Zoey’s fear that the whole town will find out about her mom’s nervous breakdown. Like darkly handsome bad boy Doug taunting her at school. With her life about to become a complete mess, Zoey fights back the only way she knows how, using her famous attention to detail to make sure she’s the perfect daughter, the perfect student, and the perfect girlfriend to ultra-popular football player Brandon.

But then Zoey is in a car crash, and the next day there’s one thing she can’t remember at all—the entire night before. Did she go parking with Brandon, like she planned? And if so, why does it seem like Brandon is avoiding her? And why is Doug—of all people—suddenly acting as if something significant happened between the two of them? Zoey dimly remembers Doug pulling her from the wreck, but he keeps referring to what happened that night as if it was more, and it terrifies Zoey to admit how much is a blank to her. Controlled, meticulous Zoey is quickly losing her grip on the all-important details of her life—a life that seems strangely empty of Brandon, and strangely full of Doug.

Description - Dru Anderson might finally be safe. She’s at the largest Schola on the continent, and beginning to learn what it means to be svetocha–half vampire, half human, and all deadly.

Btw, cool title don't you reckon forgive my fins, forgive my sins haha get it? Plus, if you read the description it sounds really good. Romance mixed with the impossible = good story. Plus, I have heard quite a bit about this book so yerdefintiely picking it up. btw does anyone know whther this is a debut book????

Description- Lily Sanderson has a secret, and it’s not that she has a huge crush on gorgeous swimming god Brody Bennett, who makes her heart beat flipper-fast. Unrequited love is hard enough when you’re a normal teenage girl, but when you’re half human, half mermaid like Lily, there’s no such thing as a simple crush. Lily’s mermaid identity is a secret that can’t get out, since she’s not just any mermaid – she’s a Thalassinian princess. When Lily found out three years ago that her mother was actually a human, she finally realized why she didn’t feel quite at home in Thalassinia, and she’s been living on land and going to Seaview high school ever since, hoping to find where she truly belongs. Sure, land has its problems – like her obnoxious, biker boy neighbor Quince Fletcher – but it has that one major perk – Brody. The problem is, mermaids aren’t really the casual dating type – when they “bond,” it’s for life. When Lily’s attempt to win Brody’s love leads to a tsunami-sized case of mistaken identity, she is in for a tidal wave of relationship drama, and she finds out, quick as a tailfin flick, that happily-ever-after never sails quite as smoothly as you planned.

2) Radiant Shadows by Melissa Marr



Release Date- 20th April 2010

Why- This book was actually released like a month ago but I have never got around to reading it. I quite enjoyed the first three books of the Wicked Lovley series so I been looking forward to this one for quite some time. However, I'm not a big fan of the charcters in this book since they weren't excatly major charcters that I paid attention to in the first three books so yer. Pros and Cons before I even start reading ;P

Description - Hunger for nourishment.Hunger for touch.Hunger to belong. Half-human and half-faery, Ani is driven by her hungers. Those same appetites also attract powerful enemies and uncertain allies, including Devlin. He was created as an assassin and is brother to the faeries' coolly logical High Queen and to her chaotic twin, the embodiment of War. Devlin wants to keep Ani safe from his sisters, knowing that if he fails, he will be the instrument of Ani's death.
Ani isn't one to be guarded while others fight battles for her, though. She has the courage to protect herself and the ability to alter Devlin's plans—and his life. The two are drawn together, each with reason to fear the other and to fear for one another. But as they grow closer, a larger threat imperils the whole of Faerie. Will saving the faery realm mean losing each other?
Alluring romance, heart-stopping danger, and sinister intrigue combine in the penultimate volume of Melissa Marr's New York Times bestselling Wicked Lovely series.

3) Halo by Alexandra Adornetto



Release Date - 14th September 2010

Why- *Confession time * I have a serious thing about angels (fact). I absolutley think they are the coolest mythical creatues, ever. Okay, I don't think they're mythical coze I believe in Heaven and all that but you know what I mean badass Angels ;P but seriously cooler than werewolves, cooler that vampires or mermaids or faeries.. LOVE ANGEL !!! Plus, this book looks really good ;P

Description - Three angels are sent down to bring good to the world: Gabriel, the warrior; Ivy, the healer; and Bethany, a teenage girl who is the least experienced of the trio. But she is the most human, and when she is romantically drawn to a mortal boy, the angels fear she will not be strong enough to save anyone—especially herself—from the Dark Forces.
