I completely forgot to photograph my recent little book haul, and in my scramble to find something to post for today I came across the chocolate book tag. Quick, easy, fun...exactly what I need!
Dark Chocolate - A heavy topic
Goodreads |
Deals with neglect, poverty, and incest. In my top ten for the best books I've read this year. I couldn't believe how much I liked and even wanting the protagonists to be together, despite a topic that squicks me out. Gorgeous, heartbreaking novel. I've never cried over a book so hard in my life. I highly recommend it, but fair warning: it's not a happy ending.
White chocolate - A light, silly read
Goodreads |
This was my first Alice Clayton book, and it's fan-fucking-tastic! Hilarious, smart, sexy, the total package. I laughed so hard my stomach hurt, and Simon..... Damn, do I love that man. <3
Milk chocolate - Popular, lots of hype, dying to read
Goodreads |
Though the reviews for this are seriously mixed, I'm anxious to try this one.
Chocolate with a caramel center - Made you feel gooey
Goodreads |
The 8th and second to last book in the Experiment in Terror series. Despite it's very creepy and intriguing topic, this is a huge swoon worthy book for me. God, I wish I could read it for the first time all over again!
Kit-kat - A book that surprised you recently
Goodreads |
I read this in February, so it's not exactly a "recent" read. However, it's one of my most surprising books this year (so far!). It started as a rather dull, typical book and stayed that way for the first 100 pages or so. After that....wow. Just wow. The book's a complete mindfuck, and so's the second. The third and final will be out later this year, and I can't wait to get my hands on it.
My name is Calla Price. I'm eighteen years old, and I'm one half of a whole. My other half—my twin brother, my Finn—is crazy. I love him. More than life, more than anything. And even though I'm terrified he'll suck me down with him, no one can save him but me.
I'm doing all I can to stay afloat in a sea of insanity, but I'm drowning more and more each day.
So I reach out for a lifeline. Dare DuBray. He's my savior and my anti-Christ. His arms are where I feel safe, where I'm afraid, where I belong, where I'm lost.
He will heal me, break me, love me and hate me. He has the power to destroy me. Maybe that's ok. Because I can't seem to save Finn and love Dare without everyone getting hurt. Why? Because of a secret. A secret I'm so busy trying to figure out, that I never see it coming.
You won't either.
Snickers - A book you're going nuts about
Goodreads |
The third and final book in the Dirty Angels trilogy comes out in a few days, and I'm salivating for it. Drug cartels, violence, sex, and one crazy son of a bitch I can't get enough of. Give it to me, give it to me now!
Hot chocolate with mashmellows - Comfort read
Goodreads |
My all time favorite paranormal romance series! A bad ass heroine, hilarious, scorchingly sexy, the best cast of secondary characters around, action in spades (for fellow Night Huntress lovers, didya see what I did there?), and one of the most epic of love stories.

Mmmm chocolate - my favorite. Totally agree with Wallbanger as a fun light read. I own Nocte and now I need to get to it. I got it on sale then hadn't heard much about it. Awesome tag!
ReplyDeleteGabriel - my favorite series. Love it! This is a fun tag!!
ReplyDeleteOh fun tag! I really want to read Forbidden - and Wallbanger. They are both on my wish list.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't read Forbidden, it's been on my list since I saw so many reviews for it back in the day. And yayy I <3 Wallbanger!
ReplyDeleteHa...this was fun and yes Wallbanger is totally white chocolate :)
ReplyDeleteThis was fun, and as I use the handle "The Chocolate Lady" I thought about trying to use chocolate instead of stars in my book review ratings. Of course, being a chocolate gourmet, if I ever gave a book the rating of "white chocolate" it would be one I hated, since I don't think that stuff should have the title "chocolate" at all!
