Cover Talk

 

It's always a good week when a pretty new book cover is unveiled.  This past week was a great week because we got 2 eye catching new covers from 2 of my favorite authors.

Shadow's Claim is the first book in Kresley Cole's IAD spinoff series, The Dacians.  We've already met the hero, Trehan, in Lothaire's book and I'm super excited to learn more about him.  Shadow's Claim is currently scheduled to be released on November 27th.

Last Kiss Goodnight is Gena Showalter's first release in her Otherworld Assassin series.  I love the black and white/red cover.  I'd almost expect to see it as a cover for one of Kresley Cole's IAD books.  Last Kiss Goodnight is currently scheduled to be released on December 26th.


Announcement

Athenna and I have decided that aside from our Weekly Recap and the occasional post from an author that prefers a weekend post date, we'll not be posting on weekends.  With 4 of her 5 kids in sports and dance classes (plus competitions), myself going to school in the evenings and both of us working and wanting time read, we just don't have the time right now to blog 7 days a week.

Congratulations to the winners!
And as for weekends, I wish for weekends off all the time since I work retail so go for it; there may be a time when you can't...

You are so right to take the weekends of blogging, lots of other stuff to do with so many children and their sports/hobbies. After all, blogging is supposed to be fun, and not a chore.
