Going Back Home

Yes! The day is finally here! I return to my Batcave in FL in about 4 hours. Well, 3 hours on the plain, 50 minutes in Miami, and then I get to Tampa!! So, I will probably post my review for The Summoning VERY SOON since I'm going to be reading 3 hours straight. Then I get online at Miami, and maybe post the review after I get home, if I'm not too exhausted that is.

I had a shopping spree before I left Puerto Rico, went to Forever 21 and bought 2 shirts, and before that to American Eagle and bought a dress- the dress is extremely rare for me, but I'm
trying to learn to use them more often.

On Forever 21 I bought a shirt that said: "Bookworms Need Love Too."

I was like that is MINE!! It's my perfect shirt. So I suggest to those Bookworms out there to go and get it.

I also was thinking in making a shirt of my own. With BloodyBookaholic in mind. But it's still in process, Ill let you know more when I finish. Who knows, maybe some of you would like one.

Now Danni from Romantic Harbor nominated me for a new award!! This never gets old!

Since nobody knows the rules for this award I'm just going to nominate 7 people:

-Briana at The Book Pixie
- Shayla at The Book Explorer

I also got renominated, by Eli, for the Kreativ Blogger award and The Heartgelt Award. Thank you girl

And thank you Juju for the Lemonade Award! I need to do an update on my Award bottom now.

I hope you guys enjoy your awards as much as I do! I love every single one of them.

Turning Books Into Movies

I just found out at, am, some blog, damn, don't remember the name... Anyways if you see this and you posted it, please let me know so I can give you credit!

**Edit: I spotted this at Not in the Pink! Thanks for letting me know!

This is the trailer for The Picture of Dorian Gray movie. It's coming out I think this year. A classic. I love this book, I read it not for school, but because that year's AP Literature class was reading it and I was like, if they can read it, I can. Yeah, a mini self challenge ^^

I read it before I started this blog, so I don't have a review for it. But if I were to re-read it I would write a review in a heart beat.

Anyways, Enjoy!

"Love comes when it is less expected"


Twenty years ago she had her whole life spread out before her. She was Bess Walsh, a fresh-scrubbed, middle-class student ready to conquer the design world. And she was taken. Absolutely and completely.
But not by Andy, her well-groomed, intellectual boyfriend who had hinted more than once about a ring. No. During that hot summer as a waitress and living on the beach, she met Nick, the moody, dark-haired, local bad boy. He was, to put it mildly, not someone she could take home to Daddy.


Instead, Nick became her dirty little secret— a fervent sexual accomplice who knew how to ignite an all-consuming obsession she had no idea she carried deep within her.


Bess had always wondered what happened to Nick after that summer, after their promise to meet again. And now, back at the beach house and taking a break from responsibility, from marriage, from life, she discovers his heartbreaking fate—and why he never came back for her. Suddenly Nick's name is on her lips…his hands on her thighs…dark hair and eyes called back from the swirling gray of purgatory's depths.


Dead, alive, or something in between, they can't stop their hunger.


She wouldn't dare.


Taschima's POV:


Deeper is the story of Bess, the young and the old version. It evolves around her and the choices she makes, and the things that happen when she decides to risk her faerie tell ending for something a little bit more dangerous and uncertain. Thus comes Nick, the 'Bad Boy', who isn't really bad but a confused, and full of hormones, teenager who needs to find his way in life. Mix with emotion and sex, this book is deeper than the ocean.


I enjoyed parts of this book, the writing, the characters, the whole concept, the past and present game... But I also was left with a blanks on other parts.


As I said the writing captures your attention since the first page, it's like you start reading it and you just keep going. Megan Hart has an amazing talent.


Character wise, well, I sometimes wanted to smack young Bess in the head, but she IS a teenager so, what the hell right? Adult Bess, though involved in a non-future relationship, she seems more in control of who she is. Nick, well, Nick... Am, I seem to want to eat him up like a candy bar, but that's like it. He is so insecure, I just want a big Eddie. I so want her to end up with Eddie, and does she? Hm I don't know, and if I did know I wouldn't tell YOU anyways. I can tell you this though, It's one of the few times I was most attracted by one other than the main male character.


And although the book is Erotica, it's not all about sex. It has a clear story line, and yeah sex IS on the menu, but on parts that make sense, mostly.


Now, the non-good parts. I liked that some of the supernatural was integrated on the book, but, I felt like I needed more explaining on that part. No, scratch that, a LOT of explaining on that part. And well it seemed to fit on the story sometimes, and sometimes it just didn't.


Also, why is Bess with Andy anyways? He is a super duper ASS. And well, the ending was a biter-sweet one, and although you probably knew it would happen, you just didn't want to hear it. But, it does leave room for possibility *hint* *hint*


All in all good read, it occupies your time, and a fantastic beginning into the whole world of Erotica, if you want to read some of that well, go with Megan Hart. I am sure to read her other novels!


PS: Cover of this book makes me think of the song "Because" from Across the Universe.
