I’m excited to help reveal the cover for Katie L. Carroll’s middle-grade adventure, Pirate Island. I just recently finished reading Carroll’s YA fantasy Elixir Bound, so can’t wait to read Pirate Island when it’s out in October. So, without further ado… PIRATE ISLAND by Katie L.

Saturdays at Sea Book Review
I loved this whole series. Saturdays at Sea by Jessica Day George was no different. It might even be my favorite one of them all. In Saturdays at Sea, we get to meet the family of Lilah’s betrothed, Lulath, as Celie and her family travel to Grath.

Finding Thor Anniversary Blog Tour and Giveaway
I’m excited to take part in Kai Strand’s anniversary blog tour for her YA book, Finding Thor. If you are not familiar with Strand, she writes middle grade and young adult books. I’ve enjoyed her books that I’ve read so far and Finding Thor is no exception. Finding Thor is filled with heart pounding action, mystery, kidnapping, torture and romance. Strand’s writing is gripping, so gripping that the kidnapping and torture scenes created lasting images for me. They continue to give me the chills a week after finishing the book. This is not for the faint of heart. Luckily, the portrayal of magnetism between Cara and Nik is even stronger. I did not want…
