Top Ten of 2012: Books I’m Looking Forward To in 2013

Before I get to my list, I just wanted to thank Two Chicks on Books, Fiktshun, Confessions of a Bookaholic, A Life Bound By Books, and Magical Urban Fantasy Reads for hosting the Top 10 of 2012 this year.

Top Ten of 2012: Best Book Boyfriends of 2012 and ARC GIVEAWAY

Hi everyone, today’s list was one I was waiting for: my favourite book “boyfriends” of this year. As you all know, I’m a huge fan of YA romance, so I was really excited to share my list.  This year, though, I was a bit lacking in 2012 reads, and I didn’t love the boy characters in every book I read. Therefore, I’m cutting my list down to eight, and presenting you with my tightly curated list of swoonworthy boys this year.  Also, I have a huge, paranormal YA at the end of this post, so read on!

Top Ten of 2012: Best Characters of 2012

Hi everyone, today’s list is my favourite characters from 2012 releases. This includes heroes, heroines, villains, contemporary, whatever.

Hannah from Bunheads (Sophie Flack) – I basically love Hannah because I love Bunheads – she […]

To me, book covers have to do three things: they have to convey the sense, theme or story of the novel really well, they have to be instantly eye-catching, and they have to be targeted to the intended audience. Here are my top 10 book covers of 2012. Keep in mind that I may not have read all of these novels, but  these are books that fulfill my […]
