J.K. Rowling's Next Book

Sadly, no more wizards. But hey, Muggles are back!

The Casual Vacancy is an adult book written in an English setting.

It opens with the sudden death of a popular man whose unexpected demise shocks the town. The battle for his seat on the local council sets off "the biggest war the town has yet seen," with rich people fighting poor, parents battling their teenagers, and wives in conflict with their husbands.

Will you read it?

Julie Kagawa Iron Legends

The Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa has two e-books, that neither Frost or I have been able to get. Winter's Passage and Summer's Crossing is now being combined as one book, known as Iron Legends.

Yes, I recommend this series. AKA Sparks, you go and read it!
The first book is The Iron King.


Also, her latest series, The Blood of Eden, the first book has come out!

No, this is not gonna be a cheesy, sappy Twilight series. This is hardcore vamps. novel.

Out of Sight, Out of Time Excerpts

GG5 will be available tomorrow! OMG, I don't know about you, but I can't wait!

Recap: 1st Chapter

http://allycarter.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/YA-out-of-sight-out-of-time-Ally-Carter.pdf

A quick collection of excerpts:


There are fourteen routes a person can take from the library to the suite where I’ve lived since my first day of seventh grade.  I knew which one was fastest, which was busiest, which one had the most awesome views and the route that was most likely to make a girl freeze to death in winter.
But that night I didn’t settle for any of those.  No, that night I went straight for the part of the mansion that no one but the teachers ever used.  The halls were long and narrow and empty, nothing but faculty living quarters and the occasional bookcase to mark the way.
It was easy to feel like I was the only person in the mansion (which was totally what I was going for) right up until the point when I heard a voice say, “Cammie?”
Zach was there.  Zach was there wearing nothing but a towel, but the being there part was far more concerning than the towel part to tell you the truth (the towel part brought up a whole different set of issues.)  Because something in the way he was looking at me told me that I had completely and totally failed in my attempt to hide.
I didn’t know which was more frustrating, his penchant for showing up at utterly embarrassing portions of my life or the looks he gave me when he did— like he knew more, saw more, understood better than anyone else on earth and right then I kind of hated him for it.'


"Cammie is no double agent"

"I killed someone"

"Might have been worth dying for"

"Everyone comes here when they're lost"

"The least we can do is take her to her father"

"Now is not the time for lies, Cammie"

"Time. I would haev gone somewhere to buy time."

"The only question that remained was why I'd have to leave"

"I think he was afraid of what I'd do if I found out how close he was getting."

"I couldn't find you. And I will never forgive myself for that. Ever."

I think that wraps it up!

Insurgent Excerpt

Insurgent is the sequel of Divergent. And of course, I found the excerpt...Please read Divergent, by Veronica Roth, if you haven't read it already!

Thoughts? Feelings? Wondering why they only have an excerpt from the second chapter, and not the FIRST?


*Spoilers in Excerpt*
