It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?
Welcome to It's Monday! What Are You Reading? This is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila at Book Journey. This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well…. you never know where that next "must read" book will come from.
Becca Bloom and the Drumsticks of Doom by Rusty Fischer
Your drumsticks . . . or your life!
Becca Bloom never knew she had a father, let alone a rock star god who’d sold his soul to the devil for success! Now, with her Dad dead, it’s up to Becca to keep her father’s Drumsticks of Doom from the bloodthirsty demon who wants them back!
I don't know if you have had the pleasure to read Rusty Fischer before but he is the incredibly talented author of Zombies Don't Cry (as well as Vamplayers, Ushers Inc. and Panty Raid @ Zombie High). I just love his writing, think intentional B-rate, cheesy, horror flick writing with plenty of wit and snark and just enough humour to keep you thoroughly entertained. Cannot wait to start this one later tonight!
Pure by Jennifer L. Armentroug (Covenant #2)
There is need. And then there is Fate…
Being destined to become some kind of supernatural electrical outlet isn't exactly awesome–especially when Alexandria's "other half" is everywhere she goes. Seth's in her training room, outside her classes, and keeps showing up in her bedroom–so not cool. Their connection does have some benefits, like staving off her nightmares of the tragic showdown with her mother, but it has no effect on what Alex feels for the forbidden, pure-blooded Aiden. Or what he will do–and sacrifice–for her.
When daimons infiltrate the Covenants and attack students, the gods send furies–lesser gods determined to eradicate any threat to the Covenants and to the gods, and that includes the Apollyon… and Alex. And if that and hordes of aether-sucking monsters didn't blow bad enough, a mysterious threat seems willing to do anything to neutralize Seth, even if that means forcing Alex into servitude… or killing her.
When the gods are involved, some decisions can never, ever be undone.
I have been so excited to continue the series since I read Half-Blood last July. Can't wait to see what happens next!!!
And what about you? What are you reading this week?



















Wow Bonnie the cover of Pure is fantastic!!! Enjoy your week of books!
Thanks Sheila. The writing of Jennifer’s books is as great as her covers let me tell you!
I agree about the cover. I haven't read them so I don't know, but those smokey covers are sooo attractive!

Thank you I’m planning on having a great reading week!
Nice choices. Rusty Fischer is new to me but sounds like something my high school kids would like. I have Half-Blood on my Kindle but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Sounds like I ought to make time for it. Happy reading!
Rusty is awesome, I just adore his writing. He actually makes quite a few of his short stories available on smashwords.com for free so you can try before you buy!
And yes, you definitely should make time for Jennifer – this series is great! Thanks for stopping by!
Becca Bloom sounds really awesomely cheesetastic!
I hope you enjoy your reading this week! thanks for stopping by my blog!
Cheesetastic – yes that is the *perfect* description! I’m 1/2 way through and loving it!
Never heard of Rusty Fischer before but the book sounds great!

Yup, the cover of Pure is awesome!!
Happy Reading!!
Haha! I’m sure the writing is just as great (and I can’t wait to see for myself). Thanks for stopping by!
I'm not familiar with either of your books this week, but the covers are certainly eye-catching.
Hope you have a great week and thanks for stopping by my blog!
I guess I do have a thing for brilliant covers!
Looks like some good books! Thanks for linking up with our site, I love hearing about YA books I wouldn't usually pick up!
Thanks Jen, I always find so many great books during this hop! My poor, poor TBR shelf!

Thank you Meg!
Ooh, Jennifer L. Armentrout! have you read her Obsidian book? i love it!!!
I haven’t yet but it looks amazing! Definitely at the top of my wish list! Thanks so much for stopping by Maria.
I started Pure a few weeks ago and had a hard time getting back into the world. I'm going to try it again soon.
Yeah? Thats a bummer. I might skim Half-Blood a bit first since I read it so long ago.
