Sparks by R.S. McCoy

A book called Sparks by R.S. McCoy is releasing on December 16th. It is a New Adult Paranormal Romance/Fantasy. R.S. McCoy's website.

Buy on Amazon on Amazon.com
Synopsis below.

Displaying Cover Art 3.jpg"Everyone in the world has a spark, a light inside that guides them, keeps them alive.”

Myxini School for Children specializes in training young men and women who have powerful sparks. Strikers are taught to manipulate fire. Trackers learn to find animals in the most formidable terrains. Handlers are instructed in communication with large predators. But forty years have passed since the last time they had a Reader – a student with the ability to read minds.

When Lark Davies enrolls at Myxini, he knows there aren’t many like him, but he doesn’t realize just how rare his abilities really are. He thinks nothing of being asked to keep his spark a secret; after all, he can barely control it. Thoughts and emotions flood unbidden into his mind until he can scarcely walk or hold a conversation. But just when he needs it most, his ability fails him.

Larks meets Khea, a small frightened girl who mysteriously insights his protective nature. He has no explanation for the curious strength of their relationship, and it doesn’t help that she is one of the few people in the world whose thoughts can’t be read. As he struggles to get to the root of their unique bond, Lark begins to unravel more power than even his mentor expected, but in the process makes himself a target to political leaders eager to take control.

Happy Book Birthday Obsidian: November 23rd 2011

Obsidian came out on November 23rd 2011 and, as of November 23rd 2013, it has been out for 2 years and is still overly popular. Sorry to post this a little late, but my schedule has been a little busy.
Today I'm overly happy to tell you guys that I've done my first author interview (clapping)!
I will show you the book and the author and at the bottom will be the author interview.

Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

12578077Starting over sucks.

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring.... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.
And then he opened his mouth.
Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. 
The hot alien living next door marks me.
You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. 
If I don't kill him first, that is.

Jennifer L. Armentrout

# 1 New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Jennifer L. Armentrout Lives in West Virginia. 
All the rumors you heard about her state aren’t true. 
Well, mostly. When she's not hard at work writing, she spends her time, reading, working out, watching zombie movies, and pretending to write.
She is the author of the Covenant Series (Spencer Hill Press), the Lux Series (Entangled Teen), Don't Look Back (Disney/Hyperion) and a yet untitled novel (Disney/Hyperion), and new YA paranormal series with Harlequin Teen. 
Jennifer also writes New Adult and Adult romance under the pen name J. Lynn. The Gamble Brothers Series (Tempting the Best Man/Tempting the Player) and Wait for You. Under her pen name, she is published with Entangled Brazen and HarperCollins.

Author Interview


Question 1: How did you come up with the idea of Obsidian?  My editor approached me about writing a book about aliens in high school.  At first, I laughed at the suggestion, but then I came up with the characters of Katy and Daemon and their story.  I started writing and I wrote the first draft in a week.

Question 2: When you thought of Daemon and started writing him, when did you decide to make him the way he was? (Rude, arrogant, sweet). Did you consider making him a golden boy? I wrote White Hot Kiss, the first book in the Dark Elements series, before I wrote Obsidian.  Daemon’s character’s personality is loosely based on Roth from that series.  I think Daemon is really a toned down version of Roth.

Question 3: Do you ever base your characters off people you know?  I don’t usually base my characters on real people, but I do sometimes use the names of actual people. 

Question 4: Are you excited for the Lux series to end or do you wish it could last longer?  I’m excited because I want readers to get the final book in the series.  But, I love writing Katy and Daemon, so I will miss getting to write their characters and their story.

Question 5: What’s your favourite movie?  I really love zombie movies, but it’s hard to choose my favorite.
M&M’s or Skittles?  M&M’s
Day or Night? Night
Sunshine or Rain?  Sunshine
Bad boy or Golden boy? Bad boy
Chips or chocolate?  Chips
Sweet or sour?  Sour
Comedy or thriller?  Thriller
Walking Dead or Supernatural? Supernatural

Quick Little Comment

I know that at the beginning of the month I wrote an entire list of books I was going to be reading this month but I will not be following that. When I went to Atlanta (which is way warmer than where I am now), I bought 12 books. Yesterday for my birthday I got about 5 books. I also got 7 other books earlier in the month. So for now I'm not going to be following the list I made. On November 30th, I will show you my book haul for November but until then happy reading.

"He gave me something to think about."
A small grin played on his lips. "What's that?"
"Let's just say I have a few more questions for you."

~Teaser #2~
Justin suddenly grabbed my arm and we stopped in the middle of the dark, quiet street. I felt my skin tingle where his fingers held on.

~Teaser #3~
He pressed his fingers against mine before he pulled his hand back. I looked down at my hand and tried to bend my fingers. Every nerve ending was standing on edge like they were all reaching out, craving more. I took a deep breath and cleared my throat.

Review: No Safety In Numbers (No Safety In Numbers #1) by Dayna Lorentz

12971664Title: No Safety In Numbers
Author: Dayna Lorentz
Publisher: Dial
Pages: 263
Release Date:May 29th 2012
Series: No Safety In Number #1
Where I Got It: Library

Synopsis: Life As We Knew It meets Lord of the Flies in a mall that looks just like yours

A biological bomb has just been discovered in the air ducts of a busy suburban mall. At first nobody knows if it's even life threatening, but then the entire complex is quarantined, people start getting sick, supplies start running low, and there's no way out. Among the hundreds of trapped shoppers are four teens.
These four different narrators, each with their own stories, must cope in unique, surprising styles, changing in ways they wouldn't have predicted, trying to find solace, safety, and escape at a time when the adults are behaving badly.
This is a gripping look at people and how they can--and must--change under the most dire of circumstances.
And not always for the better.

Review

I read this book on October 28th 2012.



This book was humor filled and had enough panic to get on my nerves - but in the good way.
I liked reading this book, but not to a point of drop everything and read. It is about a group of people that are either shopping, working or just hanging out in the mall and then get stuck inside the mall. People always say to me, "wouldn't that be the worst thing" but it wouldn't. I mean the people in the book kept on trying to escape. Why bother? It's a waste of time to try so hard just to get arrested if you get out.
I recommend this book for those who like suspense and funny books. It is also like a lot of movies where people get stuck inside building and houses and aren't allowed to leave.

I recommend this book to readers who enjoy panic situations/suspense.
Ages: 14+
Grades: 9 and up

According to the rumors, at least.

But now I’m the temporary girlfriend of Drew Callahan, college football legend and all around golden guy. He’s beautiful, sweet—and he’s hiding way more secrets than I am. He’s brought me into this fake life where everyone seems to hate me. And everyone seems to want something from him. The only thing he seems to want though is…
Me.

Forever.

But now I realize how truly lost I am without her. She has become my story…and even though she acts like she’s moved on, I know she still thinks about me just as much as I think about her. She’s beautiful, sweet—and so damn vulnerable, all I want to do is help her. Be there for her.
Love her…
If only I could convince Fable to give me a second chance. Then I wouldn’t feel so lost anymore, and neither would she. We could be found together.
Forever.


Wait For You (Wait for You #1) by J. Lynn
17754041# 1 New York Times and USA Today Bestselling phenomenon.

Some things are worth waiting for...
Traveling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago--an event that forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any attention to herself, and maybe--please God--make a few friends, because surely that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn't need and never planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the precarious future she's building for herself.
Some things are worth experiencing...
Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn dimple that's just so... so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew existed.
Some things should never be kept quiet...
But when Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants silenced, she's has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?
And some things are worth fighting for...

Book List

I was looking around on the Barnes and Noble website to see what they had in my area. After much searching, I've made a list of the books I want from Barnes & Noble when I go tomorrow. I know I made a list yesterday, but I've added a "few"...

Wait For You (Wait For You #1) by J. Lynn
17754041# 1 New York Times and USA Today Bestselling phenomenon.

Some things are worth waiting for...
Traveling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago--an event that forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any attention to herself, and maybe--please God--make a few friends, because surely that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn't need and never planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the precarious future she's building for herself.
Some things are worth experiencing...
Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn dimple that's just so... so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew existed.
Some things should never be kept quiet...
But when Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants silenced, she's has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?
And some things are worth fighting for...

One Week Girlfriend (Drew + Fable #1) by Monica Murphy

17202452
Temporary. That one single word best describes my life these last few years. I’m working at a temporary job until I can finally break free. I’m my little brother’s temporary mother since our mom doesn't give a crap about either of us. And I’m that temporary girl all the guys want to get with because I give it up so easily. According to the rumors, at least.

But now I’m the temporary girlfriend of Drew Callahan, college football legend and all around golden guy. He’s beautiful, sweet—and he’s hiding way more secrets than I am. He’s brought me into this fake life where everyone seems to hate me. And everyone seems to want something from him. The only thing he seems to want though is…
Me.

Forever.



Second Chance Boyfriend (Drew + Fable #2) by Monica Murphy
17316075
Lost. That one single word best describes my life at this very moment. I lost the last games of the season and both my team and my coach blame me. I lost the last two months because I drowned in my own despair like a complete loser. And I lost the only girl who ever mattered because I was afraid being with me would destroy her.

But now I realize how truly lost I am without her. She has become my story…and even though she acts like she’s moved on, I know she still thinks about me just as much as I think about her. She’s beautiful, sweet—and so damn vulnerable, all I want to do is help her. Be there for her.
Love her…
If only I could convince Fable to give me a second chance. Then I wouldn't feel so lost anymore, and neither would she. We could be found together.
Forever.
