Blog Tour and Giveaway- Keeper of the Bees @megkassel @entangledteen

Keeper of the Bees by Meg Kassel Genre: YA Paranormal Release Date: September 4th 2018 Entangled Teen Summary: “ Beauty and the beast like you’ve never imagined! ” — New York Times bestselling author Pintip Dunn KEEPER OF THE BEES is a tale of two teens who are both beautiful and beastly, and whose pasts are entangled in surprising and heartbreaking ways. Dresden is cursed. His chest houses a hive of bees that he can’t stop from stinging people with psychosis-inducing venom. His face is a shifting montage of all the people who have died because of those stings.

Theatre review - I Know You by Sam Moore

Title: I Know You Writer: Sam Moore Directors: Rosie Richards, Georgia Reddington Performed by: Magpie Productions Seen at: the Burton Taylor Studio Cast: Sammy Breen, Benjamin Ashton, Joshua Cathcart Review: Two men stand on a street corner. One remarks that the other looks nice. The other replies that that’s not what he’s looking for. They return home and sleep together. Afterwards, they discuss other men and how similar they actually are and how well one knows the other. This new writing by Sam Moore is described by directors Rosie Richards and Georgia Reddington as Pinter-esque, postmodern, and about “stigma, repression, mental health, and intimacy.”   We see characters  who have sex with and share lives with each other, but in other ways are detached. As an audience, we may watch characters having sex and panic attacks and we listen to them tell some of the most private stories about their lives, but we don’t ever learn their real names.  There were apprehension...

The Almost Boyfriend by Christina Benjamin @yaReads

The Almost Boyfriend by Christina Benjamin Genre: YA contemporary romance Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07258X4TP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_SFrczb4NDQ5EG Nobody likes Devon James, including Devon James. And why should they? He had it all and took it for granted—money, girls, popularity and a future with endless possibility. Now he’s just a washed up has-been. Or so everyone thinks.

And bad boy Devon James is just the guy to help her break all the rules. Sam is determined to get her life back and return to Boston by any means necessary. Her plan is crazy, but she’s convinced it will work— almost. A...

Cover Reveal: The D.B. List by Rebekah L. Purdy @chapterxchapter, @SwoonRomance and @RebekahLPurdy

Hello Readers! Welcome to the Cover Reveal for The D.B. List by Rebekah L. Purdy presented by Swoon Romance! Be on the look out for this upcoming title! What do you think of the cover? Seventeen-year-old Ellie Gebhardt has spent the last three years of high school in psychotherapy, trying to fix a very broken her. And her shrink (or therapist as she likes to be called) seems to think that in order to totally heal, she needs to recognize all the good and bad things that have led her to this point. As if a trip down memory lane will suddenly make her better. She’s given a “homework” assignment to create two lists. One with nothing but happy memories and thoughts on it (otherwise known as the ‘happy rainbow farting unicorns list’). And the other with everything negative that Ellie thinks contributed to “the” day she could no longer cope. So begins Ellie’s Douche Bag list (or D.B. List for short). And once she gets started, it’s hard to stop remembering all the jerks, the petty crap, the ...
