Review: All Samples in Buzz Books 2017: YA Spring/Summer

Thanks to Publishers Lunch for grouping samples for readers and NetGalley for allowing me to read this. I had a wonderful experience reading the one from Fall/Winter 2016 and I was so thrilled to get a glimpse of these 18 new YA books coming in Spring/Summer 2017.

There are a few stories which capture my attention. No doubt Flame in the Mist is on the list because the writing is the best out of the 18. The second best, for me, is Future Threat as it's a story you can easily get into. I also like Dream Me, Roar, This Is Really Happening, How to Be a Supervillain and Definition of Indefinable Things. To explain it better, I will give the 18 samples a mini review each and by clicking the title, you can add them to your Goodreads.

Waiting on Wednesday: Spindle Fire


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we anticipate.


Spindle Fire (Spindle Fire #1)
by Lexa Hillyer

Publisher: HarperCollins

Release Date: 11th April 2017

----------------------------------------------------

It all started with the burning of the spindles.
No.
It all started with a curse...

Half sisters Isabelle and Aurora are polar opposites: Isabelle is the king's headstrong illegitimate daughter, whose sight was tithed by faeries; Aurora, beautiful and sheltered, was tithed her sense of touch and her voice on the same day. Despite their differences, the sisters have always been extremely close.

And then everything changes, with a single drop of Aurora's blood--and a sleep so deep it cannot be broken.

As the faerie queen and her army of Vultures prepare to march, Isabelle must race to find a prince who can awaken her sister with the kiss of true love and seal their two kingdoms in an alliance against the queen.

Isabelle crosses land and sea; unearthly, thorny vines rise up the palace walls; and whispers of revolt travel in the ashes on the wind. The kingdom falls to ruin under layers of snow. Meanwhile, Aurora wakes up in a strange and enchanted world, where a mysterious hunter may be the secret to her escape . . . or the reason for her to stay.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why Spindle Fire?

The cover is gorgeous and makes me want to read this! Also, I love Sleeping Beauty and this is a retelling of the fairytale so I'm totally in.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books On My Spring TBR

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. I haven't done one in a while and thought it'd be great to start again with the Spring TBR.

February Wrap-up & March TBR

Hey, readers! I'm so sorry for the two-month hiatus on this blog. I was so caught up with work and did not have time to write any reviews, and I didn't want this blog to only contain the weekly meme posts.

I'm hoping I can keep up with my reading habits and I also have an ARC on NetGalley which I am excited to read and write about. Without further ado, let's get to the monthly wrap-up and TBR.

Should I Buy This Book or Should I Not? 4 Ways to Know More About The Books on Your Wishlist

Let's be honest. We all want to be that kind of reader who can afford all the books they want. Unfortunately, not many of us can. So, when it comes to book shopping, we want to get the ones that are really worth the money. But I believe we have all been in a dilemma. Say, you have your eye on a Barnes & Noble edition of the classics but you are not sure if the design is really worth it, or you have read mixed reviews about a book you planned to get and you're not so sure about it anymore. How can you determine which book you are gonna buy and which you're not? Here are 4 ways to find out more about the books on your wishlist before you hit "purchase".
