Effortless (Thoughtless #2)
S.C. Stephens
Expected publication: January 8th 2013 by Gallery Books (first published March 15th 2011)

Goodreads:  After being caught in the middle of a love triangle which led to a devastating betrayal, Kiera pledged to learn from the mistakes she’d made. She was determined to never again inflict that kind of pain on anyone, especially the soulful, talented man who held her heart. But life offers new challenges for every relationship, and when Kiera’s love is put to the ultimate test, will it survive? Love is easy . . . trust is hard.


I read thoughtless after getting it from netgalley and i loved it so i was excited to read the second one and i was not disappointed. After reading the original ending to Thoughtless i appreciate this book so much more.

After making it through  a horrible love triangle Kiera is over the moon to be with the man she loves. But when Kellen's band is given the opportunity of a live time their relationship is under threat. With memories of how their relationship started stirring insurities Kiera vows to never cheat on Kellen the beautiful man she loves. but with distance between them, mysterious texts and suspecious behaviour and Keira's ex back in town will their relationship survive? Loving Kellen is easy.....Trusting his past indiscretions are harder!

I really enjoyed this book after reading thoughless i really wanted tosee if kiera and Kellen could make it work. I really like the storyline of the book because it is so close to life, i think it really shows how trust and love dont always go together. I loved the end of the book it was a big awwww moment!  The only thing that spoiled the book for me was that i guessed the plot lines i was sat with my fiance going "this is going to happen" "thats not going to happen" " i bet its this person" so in a way the suspense wasnt there for me, but i loved it all the same the story was still brilliant!

Kiera irriataed me so much in this book, in thoughtless she irriated me for bed hoping but i empathised with her position and felt sorry for her. in this book she was moaning about anything! if i had the suspitions she had i would be on the phone staright away asking the truth and i certainly wouldnt hop back in bed with him! I did feel sorry for her when she was upset.
Kellen on the othehand i loved! he was so sweet and loving in this book! you completely see the other side you see a glimpse of in thoughless! I love the vulnerable side you see in this book, he gets so exhausted and worn down when an unexpected event happens that you just want to wrap him up!
Griffin really surprised me in this book, unitil the end the boy made me sick but her came true at the end for anna's sake and i loved him for it!

I thought this book was brilliant, i showed what happend to the characters relationships when denny moved then returns, how kiera and kellen have to try and fight for there relationshipand how denny gets his happy ending i cant wait to read reckless but with a name like that and the oringinal ending of thoughtless am going to be reading it throough my fingers!
Reading this was purly effortless =)

My Christmas Books

Apart from the JLA books i posted about the other day i got 3 other books for christmas 

Deadline (Newsflesh trilogy #2)
Mira Grant
Published June 1st 2011 by Orbit

Goodreads: Shaun Mason is a man without a mission. Not even running the news organization he built with his sister has the same urgency as it used to. Playing with dead things just doesn't seem as fun when you've lost as much as he has.

But when a CDC researcher fakes her own death and appears on his doorstep with a ravenous pack of zombies in tow, Shaun has a newfound interest in life. Because she brings news-he may have put down the monster who attacked them, but the conspiracy is far from dead.

Now, Shaun hits the road to find what truth can be found at the end of a shotgun


Blackout (Newflesh Trilogy #3)
Mira Grant
Published May 22nd 2012 by Orbit

Goodreads:
Rise up while you can. -Georgia Mason

The year was 2014. The year we cured cancer. The year we cured the common cold. And the year the dead started to walk. The year of the Rising.

The year was 2039. The world didn't end when the zombies came, it just got worse. Georgia and Shaun Mason set out on the biggest story of their generation. They uncovered the biggest conspiracy since the Rising and realized that to tell the truth, sacrifices have to be made.

Now, the year is 2041, and the investigation that began with the election of President Ryman is much bigger than anyone had assumed. With too much left to do and not much time left to do it in, the surviving staff of After the End Times must face mad scientists, zombie bears, rogue government agencies-and if there's one thing they know is true in post-zombie America, it's this:

Things can always get worse.


and when it finally gets published
  
Dearly Departed ( Gone with the respiration #2)( i actually cant wait i've been waiting a whole year)
Lia Habel
Published September 25th 2012 by Del Rey 

Goodreads:
Can the living coexist with the living dead?

That’s the question that has New Victorian society fiercely divided ever since the mysterious plague known as “The Laz” hit the city of New London and turned thousands into walking corpses. But while some of these zombies are mindless monsters, hungry for human flesh, others can still think, speak, reason, and control their ravenous new appetites.

Just ask Nora Dearly, the young lady of means who was nearly kidnapped by a band of sinister zombies but valiantly rescued by a dashing young man . . . of the dead variety.

Nora and her savior, the young zombie soldier Bram Griswold, fell hopelessly in love. But others feel only fear and loathing for the reanimated dead. Now, as tensions grow between pro- and anti-zombie factions, battle lines are being drawn in the streets. And though Bram is no longer in the New Victorian army, he and his ex-commando zombie comrades are determined to help keep the peace. That means taking a dangerous stand between The Changed, a radical group of sentient zombies fighting for survival, and The Murder, a masked squad of urban guerrillas hellbent on destroying the living dead. But zombies aren’t the only ones in danger: Their living allies are also in The Murder’s crosshairs, and for one vengeful zealot, Nora Dearly is the number one target.

As paranoia, prejudice, and terrorist attacks threaten to plunge the city into full-scale war, Nora’s scientist father and his team continue their desperate race to unlock the secrets of “The Laz” and find a cure. But their efforts may be doomed when a mysterious zombie appears bearing an entirely new strain of the virus—and the nation of New Victoria braces for a new wave of the apocalypse.

Finlly back on my laptop after over a month!

so i wanna share what i've got this month!!!


 Opal (lux #3)
Jennifer L. Armentrout
Published December 11th 2012 by Entangled Publishing 

Goodreads: No one is like Daemon Black.

When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around. Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on.

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I’m capable of. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won’t turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever.



Together we’re stronger... and they know it


Deity Covenant #3)
Jennifer L. Armentrout
Published November 6th 2012 by Spencer Hill Press 

Goodreads: Alexandria isn't sure she's going to make it to her eighteenth birthday--to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she's a goner... and so is Aiden.

If that's not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time "training"--which really is just Seth's code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time--she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome.

But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she's caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably changed... and destroyed.

Those left standing will discover if love is truly greater than Fate...


Elixir (Covenant #3.5)
Jennifer L. Armentrout
Published November 27th 2012 by Spencer Hill Press 

Goodreads:
Aiden St. Delphi will do anything to save Alex.
Even if it means doing the one thing he will never forgive himself for.
Even if it means making war against the gods.








So am thinking January is going to be a JLA marathon!!!
