September's Book of the Month

Hi everyone,

As you may know this month's book of the month challenge to read Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris is now coming to a close if you are wanting to submit your review then please email me the review or the link to the review. I will save it and add it to next month's giveaway. That brings me to next month's Book of the Month winner...

 Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

“For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human ... until the cold makes him shift back again.

Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.”

So if you are interested then start reading and email me your reviews to ashleysbookshelf@gmail.com. Any ideas for September's giveaway prizes?

July Book of the Month Winner and August's Pick!

Thanks everyone for participating in the poll and for the two ladies that submitted their review. I enjoyed reading both of your reviews. So since I only had two reviews submitted I decided to let the two win one of the Hardy Books of their choice.

The winners are:

.........AMY @ i heart reading...........

.........TWISTED BOOK JUBKIE @ A World of Personality...........

Thanks girls for playing along this month. I will make sure to get the books out to you as soon as I get some money. LOL. I have sent the both of you an email. Just reply back with whichever book you want from these 3. If you both pick out the same book than I will send it to whoever asked first.

NEXT we move on to August's Book of the Month

The book chosen by all of you to read for the month of August was:

Summary ganked from goodreads: Sookie Stackhouse is a cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana, but she keeps to herself and doesn't date much because of her "disability" to read minds. When she meets Bill, Sookie can't hear a word he's thinking. He's the type of guy she's waited for all of her life, but he has a disability, too--he's a vampire with a bad reputation. When one of Sookie's coworkers is killed, she fears she's next.

Here were the following results:

Cirque du Freak - 5 votes

Pandora - 4 votes

Dead Until Dark - 14 votes

Midnight Predator - 5

Book of the Month: July 2010

July 2010

Hey everyone! I just wanted to remind everyone that my book of the month giveaway is ending soon. In order to be entered into this giveaway you must visit this post and follow the directions. The giveaway will end the first of August and I will send the prize out to the winner sometimes in August after I receive my student loan. Sadly I will not be able to post my review because I did not get to recheck out the book. I was about halfway through it and I went to the library to check it out again they told me that I needed to have my card, and well I didnt :( It is okay though! I will catch next months. As of right now I only have 1 person signed up for the review giveaway, so if no one else signs up then they will automatically receive the giveaway!

Next month's Book of the Month poll is listed on the top left hand side.

JULY 2010

First book of the month is:

JULY 2010

Author: Cassandra Clare

borrowed from goodreads.com: When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder - much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing - not even a smear of blood - to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?

This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know....

Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.

How does this sound? If you have already read the book then thats fine you can still post your review, sign Mr. Linky, and still be entered into the drawing.

Remeber after you post the review on your blog come back here and sign Mr. Linky with your review's url!

**Next month choices poll will be posted on the home page along with the giveaway.**

Book of The Month: INTRODUCTION

Every month starting in July 2010 (I wll choose the first book) there will be a book to read and whenever you finish the book you will post your review on your blog (or in the comment field if you do not have a blog) then come back to this page and sign Mr. Linky. I will wait till the end of the month to post my review so that everyone has a chance to post their reviews and opinions of the book. Also during the month there will be a poll on next month's book choice. Any suggestions are extremely welcomed. Close to the end of the month I will annonuce the book choice for the following month. There will also be a random drawing for anyone who leaves their reviews for the specific month. They will also be announced at the end of the month.

I hope this makes sense. If not feel free to email me at ashleycsy_09@yahoo.com.

Happy Reading,
Ashley C.
