Book Description

May 5, 2015
When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin-one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.As she dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an ancient, wicked shadow over the faerie lands is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it . . . or doom Tamlin-and his world-forever.

Perfect for fans of Kristen Cashore and George R. R. Martin, this first book in a sexy and action-packed new series is impossible to put down!

This is a brand new series by Sarah J Maas. Doesn’t it sound really good? What about the cover?
I am planning on take part in this fun meme every week so be sure to leave me your comments and links if you are taking part so that I can and see your book choice.

Challenge/ 31 Days of Better Blogging for 2015 (Day 1)

31DaysofBetterBlogging

Your Task Today:

Your task for today is to comment. How much do you normally comment? Do you comment on 1 or 2 blogs? Well your task today is to multiply that number. So, if you normally comment on one blog, try to comment on 10. If you comment on ten already, double it and comment on twenty.

I know that commenting is the key to success in networking for your blog and I admit that is something I struggle with. You do to right?

I admit that I always tend to comment on the same blogs daily/weekly and I very rarely venture outside that circle of bloggers unless someone new has stopped to comment on my blog then I always tend to head over and check out there blog and comment.

Although I have to admit lately I haven’t been commenting on anyone’s blog just because real life things have happened recently and I am hoping that will change this year.

I need to come up with a way that I can follow these blogs so that I make it a habit to comment more and I have yet to find that with wordpress. If anyone knows of something that I can add to follow that would be great. I love how blogger had that friends widget. Please leave it in the comment section so that I can see it.

One of my goals for 2015 is that I really need to get into networking and expanding my blog. I have been doing this for 6 years and my numbers have pretty much stayed the same. I know that is good and that people are reading but I want to expand and get my name/blog out there.

If you are looking for some tips on how to help you comment you should read  ParaJunkee.com blog post today she offers some great tips.

So today my task is to comment on 10 blogs and I am happy to report that I have done that exactly 🙂

Have a Happy New Year everyone. See you tomorrow
