I had such a good time doing a read-aloud for Stolen the other day that I wanted to do the same thing for The She-Wolf of Kanta. I also got an adorable, fluffy guest partway through. 😉😸 . . #readaloud #book #books #novella #swok #werewolf #werewolves #steampunk #yalit #booklovers #bookshelf #bookshelves #amreading #joinme #darkfiction #darkfictionlover #yalit #yalovin #yafantasy #yadarkfantasy #yafantasybooks #fantasybooks #darkfantasy #darkfantasybooks #yahorror #yahorrorbooks #womeninhorrormonth @aurelialeoco
Tigers are more than just muscle and weight, they are incredibly intelligent and will hold a heck of a grudge. . A good book on this tale is The Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and Survival. I read it like six years ago but I still remember the scenes clearly. (It’s fantastic on audiobook btw and helps with all levels the Russian names!) . I love these majestic creatures so much!🐅💕 . . #Repost @professor.scary with @get_repost ・・・ Follow @Professor.Spooky for more scary videos and Follow @professor.scary for scary posts daily! ___________________________________ #horrorstories #horrorstory #horrorfacts #horrorfact #creepypasta #unknownfact #horrorstories #horrorstory #horrorfacts #horrorfact #creepypasta #unknown #horrifyingthing #things #scary #scarystories #creepystories #creepy #creepyfacts #creepyfact #scaryfacts #scaryfact #horrorstories #horrorstory #horrorfacts #horrorfact #creepypasta #unknownfact #horrorstories #horrorstory #spooks #trump #creepypasta #unknownu #horrifyingthing #things #tigers #intelligent #clever #grudge
Check out this beautiful cover reveal for @delgadillo_gerardo ! This is beautiful! ❤️🙌 . . #Repost @theparliamentpress with @get_repost ・・・ 🚨Cover Reveal🚨 . Happy cover reveal day to Fractalistic by @delgadillo_gerardo . We are so happy with how this cover came out and we can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. Click the link in our bio to add this read to your goodreads TBR. Continue reading for the synopsis. . . . Synopsis: After moving to Mexico with her parents, Winter Gutan had been hoping the local alternative medicine doctor would cure her mother’s illness. When her mother does not survive his controversial treatments, Winter’s life spirals in despair. Her father, a software engineer, insists his computer program, Fractalistic, will enable them to communicate with her mother’s spirit. But as his sanity begins to slip, Winter confides in her friend Rafa, a computer wizard, who tells her he’s found information about using fractal technology to treat false memories—nothing paranormal about it, leaving Winter confused and without hope. Will she lose her mother forever? Suspecting her dad is hiding a deep secret, Winter runs Fractalistic behind his back, unveiling a sea of computer-generated imagery swirling on the screen. Her mother appears to her…begging for help! But is this all just Winter’s imagination? Fractalistic may enable Winter to communicate with her deceased mother, but it might also unleash more mysterious memories buried within Winter’s mind. To figure it all out, Winter must hack into her father’s system to uncover a horrifying truth...or remain in the dark forever. . . . #bookstagram #bookclub #bookishlove #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booknerd #alwaysreading #bookaddict #coverreveal #coffee #bookfeature #bookstagramfeature #goodreads #read #bibliophile #reading #reader #welovebooks #book #idratherbereading #readingismagic #welovebooks #scifireads #tbr #newadult #laptop #fractalistic #coverlove #tbr
Thank you so much for the beautiful bookstagram and review for Stolen, @thesedustypages !! This is so gorgeous and I’m so glad you enjoyed the book too! 😍💖✨ . @theparliamentpress . . #Repost @thesedustypages with @get_repost ・・・ Stolen by Marlena Frank Spoiler Free Review. *I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for a free and honest review.* ◇ Wow, what an honestly refreshing and unique story! I loved how different and wonderful and fantastical the feeling of this book was. It was really a great read than I just had to award a 4 out of 5 stars to. ◇ Our lead character was a strong, wonderful character to read about and watch grow. In addition, seeing how her story grew, and watching her develop and evolve was really fantastic to see. The story was so much fun and adventure filled. I loved the magic and beauty of the world! All in all, a really worth while and enjoyable read that I highly recommend! ◇ Description: It’s difficult taking care of a delusional father by yourself. Sixteen-year-old Shaleigh Mallet would rather explore and photograph dilapidated buildings than cater to her father’s dark episodes. But when she’s kidnapped by a creature who carries her atop a flying bicycle into another world, she realizes this wasn’t the escape she wanted. In a kingdom known as the Garden, where minotaurs pull carriages and parties are held in hot air balloons, Madam Cloom and her faerie servant, Teagan, rule over the land with incredible but terrifying magic. Shaleigh must prove that she is the reincarnation of a long-dead ruler, not because she believes it, but because it’s her only chance to survive. With the help of a trespassing faerie, a stoatling, and a living statue, Shaleigh hopes to outwit everyone. She aims to break the bonds of servitude and finally make her way home. What she doesn’t realize, however, is that she’s playing right into the hands of a far worse enemy... ◇ #book #books #bookstagram #booknerd #nerd #bookish #read #reader #reading #bookshelf #bookshelves #amreading #booklovers #bibliophile #bookaddict #bookphotography #goodreads #fiction #nonfiction #greatreads #epicreads
