Today's TTT theme is all about Words . Those words that grab you and make you want to read a book.  For myself, it is a known author to me - I tend to buy the book on the author alone and don't look at anything else, but what about all those new authors I've discovered . What is it that draws me to their books and hitting the one-click button ? Here is my Top 10 words that make me want to go "I want that read book" of an author I know nothing about. 1. Song Titles - If the book has the title of a famous song e.g Sweet Boy O' Mine - Cyndi Carlisle 2. Book Club - If the title has the word Book Club in it e.g The Bromance Book Club series by Lyssa Kay Adams 3. Austen - If the title has the word Austen in it , it means it relates somehow to Jane Austen e.g The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy Fowler 4. Fairytale Title/ Classics - If the title has some variation and you can tell it was based on a fairytale/ classic book then I am sure to hit buy now e.g Hester ...

IT'S LIVE!!! Ugly. Freak. Fatty.  I had been called those things and more for as long as I could remember.  I didn’t mind it, though, because to the outside world, those words described me perfectly.  But it was all a charade, a façade to keep people away.  Never let anyone get too close.  It had worked for twelve years of my life, ever since I caused my father’s death. And then Carter Anderson pushed his way into my world.  Gorgeous, of course, charming, naturally, and cocky, a given—he called himself my friend and broke through every one of my carefully constructed walls. Cue the “happily ever after,” right?  Wrong. This isn’t some fairy tale where the ugly duckling turns into a beautiful swan, and once the beauty beneath is revealed, all is right in the world.  This is real life.  When things seem too good to be true, it’s because they usually are.  And when people say your past will come back to ...

Title: Wasted Words Author : St aci Hart Genre: Romantic Comedy Release Date: May 19 , 2016 Blurb Some universal truths refuse to be ignored. Peanut butter and jelly are a match made in heaven. Spaghetti and meatballs are best friends forever. And guys like Tyler Knight don’t go for girls like Cam Emerson. She knew from the second she met him that he didn’t belong on her bookshelf, the six-foot-six ex-tight end with a face so all-American, it could have sold apple pie. So she shelved him next to the supermodels and rock stars and took her place on her own shelf — the one with the flannel-clad, pasty-faced comic book nerds. Most of her boyfriends have existed between the pages of books, but rather than worrying over her own lacking love life, she puts all her energy into playing Cupid, using her job at the book bar, Wasted Words, as her stomping ground. Tyler Knight always looks on the bright side. His career-ending injury turned into a ...

Review: Listen - Rene Gutteridge - January 2010 Nothing major in the crime area ever really happened in Marlo, you had the occassional dispute but other than that it was a quiet smalltown with a low crime rate. The book starts off with an incident where a girl called Meredith goes to hang herself after overhearing her so-called friends on a baby monitor talk horribly about her. It then clicks over to a journalist named Damien and his family - Kay, Jenna and Hunter in the town of Marlo. Damien has always believed in the power of words and that they can easily harm someone or make someone feel better - words are a powerful thing and in the wrong hands they can become deadly. The crime rate is about to skyrocket in Marlo as a new website is created called Listen To Yourself . Someone in the town is recording private conversations and putting them online for the residents of Marlo to listen to. This starts to cause chaos as people are injured, animals are killed and drastic m...
