Being a vampire is a life-or-death situation. When I was first turned, I had only my survival to worry about. Now I'm locked in a battle for the existence of the entire human race—and the cards are definitely stacked against me.





The Voluntary Vampire Extinction Movement headquarters are destroyed, and their pet horror, the Oracle, is on the loose. She'll stop at nothing to turn the world into a vampire's paradise, even if it means helping the Soul Eater become a god and harnessing his power for her own evil ends.





An ancient vampire, a blood-sucking near deity and oh, yeah, my presently human former sire thrown into the mix. I say bring it on. May the best monster win.









“It was the damnedest thing, life. Once you decide exactly how things are going to go, something or someone comes along and messes it all up.”





Another five stars to a book in the Blood Ties series! I can already tell you that all of these books are gonna get five stars. There's only one left. Enter sad face here. Luckily, I can reread them as many times as I want.





I'm not going to go into much detail about this book because I don't want to give any spoilers as this is the third book in this series. Just know, this book is action packed!





The only gripe I have about this book is that the sexy-time was almost nonexistent. That's okay! The fights totally made up for it.





I can see how some people really hate Carrie. She was really pushing my nerves in this book. I'm not going to let that hinder my opinion though. The story of this book is just so freaking fun.





As a reminder, this series is dark! Please go into this series with caution if you need trigger warnings.





5/5 stars

    Really? That's so bizarre that they're names are so similar and they write in such similar genres 😂 it's not a common name either, like John Smith 😅

Happenings Away From The Blog Hello and welcome back to my blog! I decided to start blogging again last week. I’m currently still going strong. By that, I mean I haven’t wanted to quit yet. I’m beginning to realize that going to WordPress is what makes me hate blogging. I’m not going back there again. In the coming weeks, I may not be blogging as much though. We’re in the process of moving so my spare time is either spent cleaning or packing. We haven’t moved since 2012 and I’m extremely nervous about this move. I’m also extremely annoyed that I have so many books to pack. As much as I love my books, I never thought I would ever have to move them. This is kind of part of the reason why I haven’t been buying as many physical books. Not much has happened work-wise. I got a super nice compliment from a client and it made me feel a lot better about what I do at work. I also took three days off, equalling five days off work. My son starts school again on Tuesday and I’m currently just helpi

Books On My Fall TBR!

Top Ten Tuesday was created by  The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl . This week’s prompt is to talk about the books on our Fall TBR!  I'm not going to lie, I don't normally make any TBRs. I typically choose a book at random to read. I do this in order to make sure every single book on my TBR has a chance to be read. Babel by R.F. Kuag: I am actually dying to read this book. I have seen nothing but great reviews for this one. Luckily, if I love it, I already have two beautiful editions 😍 Mistakes Were Made by Meryl Wilsner: I actually have an arc of this one from NetGalley. I highly enjoyed Meryl's debut novel and I'm excited to see if I will feel the same about her newer release. Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton: Soooo many people have read and loved this book. I love a good dark romance and I'm definitely making sure I pick this one up soon. A Light In The Flame by Jennifer L. Armentrout: This one doesn't come out for a w
