September Giveaway!


Wow! I can't believe it's already September! Where did summer go? :( Anyway, as I already mentioned in my previous posts, I read a lot of amazing books during the summer, books that should be on every book lover's shelf. And that's why me and my partners in crime, Christina and Mona over at Bibliophile Mystery decided to give away some of our favorite books. And because vampire books are something we've all always loved, we're starting the giveaways party with some must read vamp books. 

The first one is Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon and before you all start yelling at me that it came out years ago and that it's in the middle of a very long series etc etc, let me explain myself. I haven't been a big fan of the Dark-Hunter series (crazy, I know) so I read this book only recently, more as a challenge from Julia here. And boy, am I glad I read it! It's so different from the previous books in the series and from all the adult Paranormal Romance books I read lately and SO DAMN GOOD, I just feel like everyone should read it. Seriously. If you haven't read this series yet and the 20+ books scare you (that's what put me off for so long), it doesn't matter. Jut read this one, you won't regret it. Promise. :)


It feels a bit weird to write a review for a book that, as I already mentioned, is the 15th in a series and came out years ago, but I think I should at least point out some important aspects about it. 
It’s a very, very long story (more than 700 pages!) that initially breaks your heart, makes you sad, depressed, frustrated, angry, speechless, hopeful but then it also makes you smile and feel all warm and fuzzy. Maybe it makes you question your own reality. Simply put, it makes you feel everything. It’s so intense and powerful and ... bitter sweet in the end! And after seeing what happened to Acheron in his human life, it’s impossible not to care for him and to want what’s best for him. And that’s exactly what Kenyon delivers by bringing Tory, his soulmate, in the second part of the book. They are a perfect match. And everything is wrapped up in brilliant story telling and wonderful, captivating writing. Add to that a nice blend of mystery, suspense, action, humor, hotness, delicious romance and you got a perfect book! Yup, a must read! Read more about it on Goodreads.


Then we have for you the first two books in the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton. I think they are already classics and all paranormal lovers know them, but if you want to read more about them, here are the Goodreads links: Guilty Pleasures, The Laughing Corpse


And last but not least, another classic, The Virgin of the Seven Daggers. Excursions into Fantasy by Vernon Lee.
