bookgoonie Reads
- Finished Five Flavors of Dumb by Antony John and loved it.
- Finished One Grave at a Time (Night Huntress #6) by Jeaniene Frost. Not my favorite in the series.
- Currently Reading Tricked (The Iron Druid Chronicles #4) by Kevin Hearne. I’m liking it a lot more than Hammered.
- Current Read-along is First Grave to the Right by Darynda Jones and I’m loving it so far. It makes me laugh. She kind of reminds me of Georgina Kincaid, so far.
Around the Book Blogging Community
- Bite My Books is going after Shitty YA Boy Toy: Gideon from Ruby Red. This meme cracks me up. Ruby Red is still a historical time travel that I want to read. I can’t wait to see if I think he deserves his title.

Awww, thanks for sharing my story. ♥ The Shitty Boy Toys meme is FULL of Win. I did not find Ruby Red to be all that great, however….
THE LAST BASTION!
Finally got it
I second Smash! That Shitty Boy Toys meme is awesome.
And you got Crux!!! I’m looking forward to that one.
The cover of Crux looks awesome. Yep, can’t wait to dive in.
I thought Tricked was better than Hammered too! Though boy did it have a horrid cover! At least for the next one he fixed that LOL
I love the trickster though—he is such a great character
Not quite as cool as the others.
I likes Tricked better than Hammered too! I love the trickster–he is one of my favorite characters in the series!
Counting down to the 15th
Woot! Can’t wait.
Okay, I really liked Ruby Red, but that Shitty YA Boy Toy post was hi-larious. I especially love all the buttons. Obviously, some s*** goes down in Sapphire Blue. Eep!
