So I was nominated for this award in January by Rose over at Paranormal Books!  Thanks so much Rose!  Eve over at Edge of Night created this award!  She's got a pretty sweet blog design :)  Here's what you've got to do!

1.  Write a post to show off your award! Give a brief story of how your blog got started, and give a piece or two of advice to new bloggers. Thank whoever nominated you, and provide a link to their blog. List who you've nominated in the post. Make sure to also attach the award itself! (You can do this by right-clicking, saving, and uploading the image above).

2.  Select 15 other blogs you want to give the award to. Do some digging if you must! Find those blogs. You cannot nominate yourself or the person who has nominated you.

3.  Comment on each blog and let them know you've nominated them. Provide a link to the award post you created.
Let's get started!

R&R Review and Interview Friday: Dying Dreams by Katharine Sadler

Amazon  Goodreads  Barnes and Noble

 

Goodreads Blurb:

"Liza Simmons has just learned she is a banshee who dreams of death. Problem is, the government knows what she is and they want her to work for them, touching dead bodies and dreaming of how the victims died. In 2070, in a world ravaged by climate change, the fae have few rights and Liza doesn’t have any other options than to do what the government wants.

Agent Sloane Rice works for the supernatural protection agency, or SPA, and it’s his fault the government knows what Liza can do. He convinces her to sign on with SPA as an agent to avoid becoming a government science experiment. Liza works with Rice to find out why several mermaids have disappeared or died in recent weeks.

During their investigation, they uncover a larger crime and a possible fae rebellion. They both know they need to focus on the job and ignore the mutual attraction growing between them, but trying to fight it may get them both killed. Especially when the fae rebel behind all of the recent violence discovers that they are on his trail."

Bookish Discussions: The Dreaded DNF Marking

Today's Topic is DNF's aka Did Not Finish books!  We all have those books.  You mean well.  You pick it up and are either so excited to find out what happens or are a bit skeptical.  Then you get 5, 10, 15, 20 pages in and you're cringing every other page.  Soon, you get to page 50 and can't take it anymore.  However there are some people who refuse to mark books as DNF's.  Let's get to the bottom of it!
