I am so very behind on my reviews that it isn’t even humorous. I’m going to have to do a whole post just to show you how very behind I am. but until then, this is what I am currently reading! (It’s pretty flipping awesome so far!)

17336327

As the last of the Incenaga Witches, Emmeline has been tortured and forced to use her power to kill. But unlike the Incenagas before her, she has survived. With her freedom restored, she should feel safe, invincible even. After all, she has the protection of Prince Erick’s army and a power strong enough to obliterate any enemy. Yet Emmeline lives in fear for the next person who will try to control her, and no one can seem to find the tyrant threatening to claim her.

Until it’s too late.

With everything on the line, and the enemy at her throat, will Emmeline be able to use her power like never before? Even if it kills her?

In The Underground Witch, the second novel of the Incenaga Trilogy, Debbie Dee delivers enough adventure, heartbreak, and suspense to captivate readers at every turn.

Vampire Lover Blog Award

I’ve been nominated for this new amazing award – Vampire Lover Blog Award – by the lovely Elaine of Vampires, Crime and Angels…Eclectic Me

You can read all the rules here. For each award there are rules for acceptance; the main distinction, however, is in how many nominations you make.

The Vampire Lover Blog Award rules are as follows:

~You must be a vampire.

~Link back to the one who nominated you.

~Display the Vampire Lover Blog Award image.

~State 11 facts about yourself.

~Answer 11 questions from this list

~State these rules.

~Nominate (and notify) at least 3 fellow bloggers.

Most blog awards are very personal things, and to formally receive the award you have to answer random questions and/or offer random facts about yourself. The Vampire Lover Blog Award is different, in that the questions and facts should be about a vampire. There are various ways to do this:
  • If you, the recipient, are a real-life vampire (and I know at least one blogger who is) then you may choose to talk about yourself.
  • If you are an author of vampire stories, you may allow one of your vampiric characters to receive the award. (This may also be a way for you to explore and develop aspects of character in works-in-progress.)
  • For fun, you may select a vampire from film and/or literature and imagine how they would answer the questions.
  • Or, you could imagine yourself a vampire, or create a new vampiric character solely for this purpose.

vampire-lover-blog-award1

Here goes – 11 facts about myself :

~I was seventeen before I read the first Harry Potter book.

~If I could have any superpower, it would be unlimited regeneration.

~I can tell you the names of every member of the Fellowship of the Ring, but can’t for the life of me remember this year’s American Idol winner.

~Every time I hear the song “Raise Your Glass” by Pink, I think of Harry Potter because of a meme I saw on the internet.

~I am afraid of elevators, bridges, tall buildings, and too much concrete.

~I think snakes are sadly misunderstood creatures.

~In our house, I am the one summoned (often by screaming) to dispose of spiders and scorpions while my brothers look on with gaping eyes.

~I don’t have the coloring, but I’m Asian-American through my mother.

~Some people find them creepy, but I like big buildings after the crowds have left.

~My middle brother has agreed to be my minion and extract my harsh rule upon the earth when I rise to power.

~Aforementioned brother has also sworn to behead all suitors who offend me.

~If I could have any pet, it would be a hippogriff.

And now I’m going to turn it over to Haddie, the heroine of my Fanged Princess series, for the answers to the vampiric questions:

~What happens if you suck your own blood?

Nothing, really. It doesn’t hurt us, but it doesn’t help us, either.

~Are there any female vampires around?

Can you not see me?

~Is it possible some vampire-related genes can be passed down through human bloodlines over the centuries?

There are myths about it, but I’ve never really looked into it. They say, thousands of years ago, our ancestors were nightbound and it was only because they mingled with humans that we can walk in the sun without burning. Of course, my dear old dad just loves that theory…

~What do you think of the recent fashion for vampire books and films? Has it made your life harder or easier?

Let’s just say weirder. My dad’s always had a string of willing hosts for feeding (though he and most others never really care if they were willing or not) and they’ve been easier to find the past few years. But it can make it harder to tell someone who doesn’t think vampires are real that you are one. They think you’re either sparkly or combustible. It’s infuriating.

~If you live forever, or for thousands of years, and are difficult to kill, and are very strong and powerful… how do you not become a sociopath? And go off and start doing anything you want and acting on any impulse?

Doing what I wanted got someone I loved killed. I’m not a big fan of myself. But I kind of act on impulse already…

~Vampire physiology must be very different from human physiology – how is human blood digested and processed in the blood system?

How should I know? I heard somewhere that human blood already contains nutrients and we just break it down some more in our own bodies, we just can’t absorb it from other sources. I tried an oatmeal-raisin cookie once and puked my guts out for days. Lesson learned: leave human food to the humans.

~Do vampires possess a soul? What difference does having or not having a soul make? What happens when you die? (Assuming you can actually die… Can you?)

Of course I have a soul. We all have souls. They just tend to be a lot darker and nastier than most and it’s a good thing we can die or else I’d still be stuck with my psychotic uncle as well as my psychotic father.

~Do you believe in ‘true love’ and ‘soul mates’?

‘Soul mates,’ no. Who’s to say there’s only one person on this planet of 7 billion sentient life forms that you could be happy with? ‘True love,’ yes. I think that’s what my brother’s got with his human girl, Madelyn, and I found it, once. Then I messed it up.

~Would you date a werewolf?

I’m not going to dignify that with a response.

~Should humans tolerate the existence of vampires?

Eh. It would be nice if they did, but truth be told, I’d settle for not being bashed in the face with a shotgun every time I visit a Huntsman’s house.

~They say a vampire’s bite brings pleasure rather than pain. Is that true, and how is that even possible?

You’re kidding, right? It hurts. Really, really bad, believe me, I still have nightmares about it.

blogger, country life, indie, one lovely blogger award

one-lovely-blog-award1

Thank you so much to Tonya of My Family’s Heart Book Reviews for nominating me for this award!

 

As a part of this award, I must now nominate seven more bloggers and share seven facts about me!

 

My nominations are:

~Kaitlyn Deann

~Reviewing What I’m Reading

~fundinmental

~Known to Read

~Eli Hinze

~Rally Reviews

~Sarah Elizabeth’s Bookshelf

 

And now the seven random facts about me:

~Due to a traumatic childhood experience involving a rooster mugging me for my biscuit, I have a fear/hate of birds and especially feathers.

~My favorite TV shows are Doctor Who and Grimm in that order.

~If I could be any mythological creature, I would be an elf. (Vampire was the other option, but I love my tan way too much.)

~I have bottle-raised baby goats, orphaned puppies, lambs, and one donkey.

~Eleven years later, I still have aforementioned donkey, Joppa, and I’m the only one he listens to.

~When my brother and I were little we couldn’t get a horse, so we had a half-blind pet goat named Count who pulled a wagon instead. No, really.

~I cannot follow driving directions to save my life. Street names mean absolutely nothing to me, so if you’re ever trying to get me somewhere, tell me where it is in relation to the local bookstore, not the highway.

If you would like to accept this award, post about it and pass it on to others, here are the rules: 1. Add the ONE LOVELY BLOG AWARD image to your post. 2. Share seven things about you. 3. Pass the award on to seven nominees. 4. Thank the person who nominated you. 5. Inform the nominees by posting on their blogs.
