I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!

    Seriously? I hate that summer has ended! I don’t work over the summer so it is always sad for me to say goodbye to vacation.
    I guess the next thing I will look forward to is Thanksgiving – I love Thanksgiving!

    And – Very hard decision because my wish list is so long… but I think I would choose –
    The Dirty Life: A Memoir of Farming, Food, and Love by Kristin Kimball

  3. Cheryl "Mash"

    There are so many on my wish list, so I’m not sure.

    • Gina

      Huh?

  4. Cheryl "Mash"

    oops..didn’t see the question. Only on 1st cup of coffee. Plus this looks so familiar, I answered the wrong question lol. What am I looking forward to since summer just ended? Since I am not a fan of the cold weather here in New England, the one thing I do enjoy is sitting in my recliner, with a warm fleece throw, a hot cup of coffee or hot chocolate and a good book. .

    • Gina

      So not funny!!

  5. Juju at Tales of Whimsy...

    And the hot cocoa.
    Man I love fall.
    I really detest heat.

    If I win, I think I’ll get an eBook in verse.
    I have several on my list.

    Thanks for the awesome contest.

    I live in Australia so the heat is just starting to pick up! I seriously forgot how nice it was to NOT wear pants! 😛 Or a coat. Or have to be all snuggled up under bed covers to stay warm at night. Just, OH I want to go to the beach or to the pools!

    But I still have uni. :/ For like another few months and then summer holidays! I have so many books I need to read, as well as reviews that need to be written. Lots of bludging around to be had — I need to catch up in my bludging and doing nothing! Ha!
