Here's where I'm off to This Week, Oct 12 - 16:
- Tyrean Martinson - guest post (10/13) - Sequels: Pros & Cons
- Tonja Drecker - Lazy Housewife post - The Password Game
And speaking of MJ, I FINALLY finished EFFIGY!It took a long time because I'm a slow reader and have very little time to read. But I stuck with it because it was fabulous! I gave it 5 whole-hearted stars. And here's my review:
If you like Game of Thrones, Effigy will steal your heart. Queen Haliene is strong and determined, even when her perfect life is ripped away and she's sent to a living hell in an arranged marriage to a despicable devil. She carries on only to protect her people from him. She has more to live for when hope sneaks into her window, but more trouble too.
Effigy is composed of beautiful prose, intense drama, and gripping suspense, plus deep and passionate characters. I absolutely adored this book and cant wait for the next one! Finally a woman joins the ranks of Jordan & Martin!!
And don't forget the Rafflecopter!

Have a good week, everybody!
PS - I think I'm going to sign up for the List Blog Hop. Bish Denham came up with this fun hop to celebrate eight years of blogging. I found it at Alex J Cavanaugh's who is helping co-host. He says it’s beyond simple - and it's about lists! How can I not?The rules are:
Sign up, grab the banner and make a list.
Keep your list to between 5 and 25 items. You can list whatever you feel like (except for adult type content.)
Post on October 26 and visit fellow participants.
That’s it!

Effigy is on my list to read! (I'm also a slow reader.)
Thanks for mentioning the List Hop! It couldn't be simpler.
Hmm that does sound like a fun blog hop...
I can relate so well to being a slow reader. (It even takes me ages to read an Archie digest anymore, LOL.) Anyway, great review! Effigy is a book I've been wanting to check out for a long while now. Hopefully I finally can once I get back into the swing of reading!
I've already been at Tonja's today. MJ's book is fantastic! Have a good week. :)
Thank you, really, for your incredibly kind words. I appreciate you taking the time to both read it and review it.
M.J.'s book sounds wonderful! On my TBR list too.
Love the idea of a blog about lists, couldn't resist!
I either have MJ's book on my wishlist or I bought it. Can't currently recall.
I signed up for that blogfest too. Now to think up a list.
Congrats on the busy blog hop. And what a wonderful review for Effigy, sounds like a good read!!!
Love the list-themed blog hop. Just signed up! Thanks for the info.
