Intro & Giveaway!

Hey Beautiful People!

My name is Mirely. As of late I've renewed my loving innocent obsession with books. I started to write my reviews on Goodreads to remind myself what my thoughts were in regards to the books I read. As I got more and more hooked on Goodreads I started to turn family and friends on to it, which led to my son and nieces pretty much reading the same books I was reading (YA and appropriate Adult), which led me to thinking I might challenge myself to start a blog this year.  I already spread the book news in person so why not do it on inter-webs? As a result a blog is born and here it is!  I would love for you all to help me celebrate by re-tweeting, subscribing, and leaving comments!



Where there is a Born-Day there is a gift and I would love to gift you one of my favorite series thus far:

Covenant Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout: Daimon, Half-Blood & Pure.



Get to know Jennifer L. Armentrout
My Daimon Review
My Half-Blood Review
My Pure Review







* There are other books in the series that have yet to come out. You will get the first three that have been published.*


I absolutely love these books! I absolutely love this author! In my world if the author is nice/likable/approachable it's a plus and I will always give their books a try and support their art. I digress! If you haven't already heard: This series is about Alex Andros, Half-Blood/Baby Apollyon, who is so full of passion and bravery. She has lost much in a period of a year and is finding herself more and more alone dealing with things that she either has no control over or things she has set in motion. Yeah, umm, she gets into trouble A LOT! At any rate this is a unique series that will have you in suspense the entire time encouraging you, pleading with you, enticing you to not set it down until you finish.

*This giveaway/gift is open internationally as long as Book Depository can deliver to your country. U.S. entries can choose Amazon or Book Depository*

    Those covers are beautiful. Is it wrong that I've been reading books all of my life and I still tend to judge books by their covers?

      Beautiful for sure! Mesmerizing to a point even. I totally judge a book by its cover! My routine: Cover/book description/author. In that order. If description is on point then I buy e-book. If book/story is a winner I buy the printed version. Yeah...I'm bad.

      My most favorite series will most likely be Harry Potter. :-)But I agree there are so many great ones out there.

      Thank you for all of your suggestions!

      Thank you Natasha! It's the artist in me... maybe the rebel in me too. I like to be different in my own way. LOL

    Thanks for the great giveaway! I like a lot of good UF and paranormal series so it is hard to pick a favorite. I enjoy reading reviews that are easy to follow and clearly state why a book is worth reading.

    Oh my favorite series is Twilight. Love Love Love it! But I also like Vampire Diaries. Just all Vamps. I look for a cool site something thats just more than curb appeal. The author of the site posts interesting stuff that I want to read. Thats why I'm a book blogger love to read. Other blogs inspire me to what I should read. Thanks

      Thank you Krista! I loved the Twilight series as well. I think I loved it even more because I read the series with my best friend. I always love to share my thoughts with someone else and enjoy the back and forth on likes and dislikes.

      It really is a great series Emily! I think I fell in love because I saw it's growth. I read Daimon when it was a free unedited version but could still appreciate it's potential. When the official version came out and then Half-Blood came out right after, I was floored by how good this story was.

      Oh and no worries on listing your faves. We are Goodreads friends and I already took a peek at your list. ;-)

    Hmmm, I don't really have a favourite series... I didn't read many to be honest- I prefer single books...
    I kind of challenged myself to start reading series in 2012 hence I'm participating in this x3
    In a blog, I love to read reviews that are simple and honest! Humour is a must to keep me reading!

      Thanks Crystal for stopping by! I like series but I have to admit that it's a headache to wait for each new book. I find myself having to re-read some of the books in the series to remember stuff about it to prep for the next one that's coming out. I didn't mind doing it for the Harry Potter books but I find it hard to do it for any other series.

      Thanks for the tip... !FUNNY! Got it! (I will try:-/)

    I absolutely LOVED the Eon/Eona duology, they're definitely my favorites! Before I read them the Harry Potter series were always first. I'm very new to this blog stuff, but I just really like awesome people and awesome reviews :D Also, I like how everything is organized here. And this giveaway is awesome, thanks for doing it! :)

      Aww Nelly I know what you mean!! I'm getting a bit frustrated with how some of the books I'm reading are lacking too. As I say on to the next and hopefully that next will be a great one!

      Thank you for stopping by!

    I can't choose a favorite series.. I have quite a few. I enjoy them for different reasons. I LOVE JLA though.. both of her series so far are AMAZING.

    What do I look for in a blog? Hmmm.. I look for helpful reviews.. a blogger that interacts with their readers.. extra stuff to read/look at.. a couple of good memes per week.. and some unique-ness. :D

    Thanks so much for the giveaway!
