Book Blogger Hop #59: Dealing with Reading Slumps

 



Hello everyone! I'm participating in another book meme called the Book Blogger Hop which is hosted by Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer!  Basically, you just answer weekly questions and then post up your link on the question's page.


This week's question is:



Usually, when I'm in a reading slump, I just take a break from reading books and when a new book comes along that grabs my interest, then I can easily get back into reading!

The Sunday Post Meme (236)

 

 Hey everybody! I am participating in a book meme called the Sunday Post which is being hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer! The goal of this meme is to share news you have  on various books and things you’ve read or received and also talk about what is coming up for your blog! Book hauls can include library books, yard sale finds, arcs and bought books and you can share these finds with other book bloggers!


Hey everyone!  So, me and my family are busy trying to get everything ready for Thanksgiving.  Also, this Saturday, me and my family will be going to North Carolina to visit my sister, so I'm definitely looking forward to that!

One Word: NORTH!!!



NOTHING HERE!





 

Do you like to travel a lot?








*So, here are some good things that happened to me recently!




* I've been to North Carolina this past weekend and I had quite a lovely time there!  I'm so happy that we are returning to North Carolina this coming weekend!

* I've been on BlueSky for awhile now and I'm really liking it much better so far than Twitter.  The environment is a bit friendlier there and it's easier to follow people there than on Twitter. I hope that BlueSky continues to be a place for friendly conversations.

"What an astonishing piece of work. Beautiful and moving." —Neil Gaiman

We Called Them Giants is a story of communication across a chasm at the end of the world.

Lori wakes to find the streets empty. Everyone has gone. Or at least, nearly everyone. She’s thrown into a world where she has to scrape by in the ruins of civilization, nearly starving, hiding from gangs when …

They arrive.

The award-winning team behind dark fantasy smash DIE release their first stand-alone original graphic novel.        


It's been awhile since I last featured a graphic novel here.  But, this graphic novel sounds really exciting to read!














Darkly

By: Marisha Pessl

Expected Publication Date: November 26th, 2024

Buy on:   Amazon (Hardcover)
           Amazon (Kindle)



A must-read thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last page from the New York Times bestselling author of Night Film.

There’s nothing special about Dia Gannon. So why was she chosen for an opportunity everyone would kill for?

“Pessl is gargantuan: wildly smart, extremely surprising, a wordsmith, a queen. Read her.” —E. Lockhart, #1 New York Times bestselling author of We Were Liars


Arcadia “Dia” Gannon has been obsessed with Louisiana Veda, the game designer whose obsessive creations and company, Darkly, have gained a cultlike following. Dia is shocked when she’s chosen for a highly-coveted internship, along with six other teenagers from around the world. Why her? Dia has never won anything in her life.

Darkly, once a game-making empire renowned for its ingenious and utterly terrifying toys and games, now lies dormant after Veda’s mysterious death. The remaining games are priced like rare works of art, with some fetching millions of dollars at auction.

As Dia and her fellow interns delve into the heart of Darkly, they discover hidden symbols, buried clues, and a web of intrigue. Who are these other teens, and what secrets do they keep? Why were any of them really chosen? The answers lie within the twisted labyrinth of Darkly—a chilling and addictive read by Marisha Pessl.

This summer will be the most twisted Darkly game of all.


Oooh!  A book all about games!  I can't wait to check this book out soon!
