TGIF Weekly 30
T . G. I. F. Weekly
Here,
YOU, the reader get to help me pick out my upcoming reads
and reviews. Vote for what book you want to see a review for by
leaving a comment stating your desire out of the 3 choices. Most voted
on
by Tuesday will be posted between Wednesday and Friday
(before the next TGIF post). I might even post more than 1 review for
these depending on how many vote and on what other posts I have set up
(especially other reviews). Also past books (if not reviewed) may come
up in future TGIFs.
Also
I have a poll up on the right column to vote for my upcoming reads. Last chance to vote before I change it over for March.
The more votes the higher the chances of that book being read sooner and
the higher the chances of a review soon. I will change the books listed
for the polls every couple weeks so be on the lookout for changes to
the list. Old books may remain until read but this way I can hopefully
better cater to reader's interest. :)

In this breathtaking
debut that reads like Gossip Girl crossed with Twin Peaks, a Queen Bee
at a blue-blooded New England prep school stumbles into a murder
mystery.
Anne Dowling practically runs her exclusive academy on
New York’s Upper East Side—that is, until she accidentally burns part of
it down and gets sent to a prestigious boarding school outside of
Boston. Determined to make it back to New York, Anne couldn't care less
about making friends at the preppy Wheatley School. That is, until her
roommate Isabella’s body is found in the woods behind the school.
When
everyone else is oddly silent, Anne becomes determined to uncover the
truth no matter how many rules she has to break to do it. With the help
of Isabella’s twin brother Anthony, and a cute classmate named Brent,
Anne discovers that Isabella wasn’t quite the innocent nerdy girl she
pretended to be. But someone will do anything to stop Anne’s snooping in
this fast-paced, unputdownable read—even if it means framing her for
Isabella’s murder.

Sydney
is an alchemist, one of a group of humans who dabble in magic and serve
to bridge the worlds of human and vampires. They protect vampire
secrets - and human lives. When Sydney is torn from her bed in the

far worse. Jill Dragomir - the sister of Moroi Queen Lissa Dragomir -
is in mortal danger, and the Moroi must send her into hiding. To avoid a
civil war, Sydney is called upon to act as Jill's guardian and
protector, posing as her roommate in the last place anyone would think
to look for vampire royalty - a human boarding school in Palm Springs,
California. But instead of finding safety at Amberwood Prep, Sydney
discovers the drama is only just beginning...
