Still struggling to find her footing after the sudden death of her parents, the last thing college freshman Alessa has the strength to deal with is the inexplicable visceral pull drawing her to a handsome ghostly presence. In between grappling with exams and sorority soirees – and disturbing recurring dreams of being captive in a futuristic prison hell – Alessa is determined to unravel the mystery of the apparition who leaves her breathless. But the terrifying secret she uncovers will find her groping desperately through her nightmares for answers.
Because what Alessa hasn’t figured out yet is that she’s not really a student, the object of her obsession is no ghost, and her sneaking suspicions that something sinister is lurking behind the walls of her university’s idyllic campus are only just scratching the surface…

Fortunately the Milk REVIEW

FORTUNATELY THE MILK
By Neil Gaiman

"While picking up milk for his children's cereal, a father is abducted by aliens and finds himself on a wild adventure through time and space."



Hello all! BEA 2013 is over and so begins the onslaught of blogger reviews that bookish people everywhere have been waiting for. There were so many amazingly, noteworthy titles at the expo and I was indeed a bit overwhelmed. I figured I would start my post BEA reviews with this children's gem, Fortunately the Milk! I am super excited about this title and even more so about the author. I was fortunate enough to be able to sit in on Neil Gaiman's panel, where he spoke about why fiction is dangerous. Apart from being my favorite writer, Neil is also an incredible speaker! 

That's Neil himself! 
My luck continued and everyone in the audience was gifted with signed copies of Fortunately the Milk and Make Good Art. *eek* Neil also has an upcoming adult novel, The Ocean at the End of the Lane, being published in September of this year. 


~ My Review ~

Fortunately the Milk is a fun and quirky adventure. One I am very excited about! Neil is a fantastic story teller in any genre he tackles. This book is perfect for juvenile readers, as well as adult fans of Neil!  It is a tale of a dad on a quest to procure milk for his two children. During his journey he meets aliens and dinosaurs, talking volcanoes and wumpires. He does his fair amount of time travel and of course, protects the milk at all cost. Who knew going to the grocery store could be so dangerous! Seriously, this is one of the most entertaining and imaginative chapter books you will get you hands on. The illustrations are amazing and enhance Neil's story at every turn. Fortunately the Milk is one you will definitely be adding to your collection, and perhaps gifting to Dad--because Dads deserve a reminder that they are heroes too!

But in the back of mind, it was like an invisible fist was lurking, one that followed me around, just waiting for the chance to rip out more hair.”

Skin Deep Cover Reveal

Skin Deep
Book 1 of The Eternal Forces
By Megan D. Martin


COMING Fall 2013
New Adult Paranormal Romance
From Dragonfairy Press

What would you do to have the body of your dreams?

Kiera hates being overweight and hides behind thick layers of clothing. One night, her friends present an opportunity that seems impossible to believe. With a single spell, she can have the thin physique she's always coveted.

But all magic comes with a price: no sex or she'll revert back to her old body. Kiera accepts the cost. It's not like she has men lined up at her door. Obeying this one tiny rule isn't difficult at all—until the night she meets Cain, a were-tiger and a soldier with the Eternal Forces.

When a slew of unexplained murders forces Kiera and Cain together, they'll have to face the horrors of their pasts. Will Kiera realize she is worth more than her outward appearance? Or will she make the wrong the choice and lose everything—including her life?
