YT Book Club Live Chat: CINDER by Marissa Meyer


     We hosted our first live show for the YouTube Book Club on BunnyCates' Channel. We read and discussed CINDER by Marissa Meyer. The chat was divided into three portions. First was spoiler free, the second portion was an in-depth discussion, and the final part was more of an after show general chat. We did experience some technical difficulties part of the way through, but we made it back live and both videos are posted below.

Cover Love, Redesign, & Updates

Former Blog Template
     Let's start with the obvious shall we? I redesigned my blog! Woohoo! I love blog redesigns. It's always fun to look at new and shiny things. Personally, I love working on my blog. Any excuse I get I'll be on here making new images or editing HTML. No, I'm not an expert at it but I do love to learn more. 
One Of My First Ever Templates
     This blog redesign was fun and then not fun and then fun again lol. I gotta be honest. It also went through many many stages. My original background looks nothing like what you see here. I have been working on this redesign for sometime. If you follow my Twitter you may have seen tweets linking to the fake blog that I set up to test backgrounds.
      The reason I decided to redesign is basically the same reason I redesigned the last time, I wanted something more compatible with the books that I plan to publish. While I loved the fantasy feel of my former template, it wasn't easily customized. When I get my first real book cover I want to be able to feature it on my blog in some way. So I've been working on a blog that just might do that for me. Here it is and I think I'm pretty happy with it. What do you think? Don't be surprised if it changes again though. At the very least, expect tweaks-- always expect tweaks :-)

Mini Update

     Ok, Lets get this update out of the way. You may of noticed that I haven't been posting as much on my YouTube channel. That's basically because I've been writing. My kickstarter campaign has stalled out at $518 and I don't expect to get my funding. That's ok, but I still need to write. Since I hadn't planned on starting up my giveaways again until after May 5th, I'm taking this chance to focus on writing. I've mostly been working on a stand alone novel that isn't yet titled. You can find a link to it by clicking my "My Books" tab above. Don't worry Exaulta Fans, I'll turn my attention back to Exaulta very soon. 

Cover Love

      Ok, now onto the really fun stuff! I read ENCLAVE by Ann Aguirre last year and just loved it! It's easily one of my favorite books. At least number one or two. Which, of course, makes it a Cutie's Pick. All this time I have been dieing to read the sequel, OUTPOST. I can't believe they're making us wait so long to see

Top 11 in 2011!

Enclave Book Review & Discussion

       Hello Bookworms! Guess what? My YouTube channel has officially launched! I know, it's about time. It was pretty iffy there for awhile, I won't lie. The editing of my first review ran up until the morning of the launch. Then to make things worse, It took almost two hours to process and upload the video. Imagine me carrying my laptop opened, as I walk to the car, and YouTube saying that my video will be finished uploading in a few seconds. The video processed in

WELCOME TO THE APOCALYPSE


      In Deuce’s world, people earn the right to a name only if they survive their first fifteen years. By that point, each unnamed ‘brat’ has trained into one of three groups–Breeders, Builders, or Hunters, identifiable by the number of scars they bear on their arms. Deuce has wanted to be a Huntress for as long as she can remember.
