Title: Night Owl
Author: M. Pierce 
Genre: Adult Romance 
Rating: 5 | 5!! 

Synopsis: Goodreads 

Review:
I'm still descending from the high this story brought me on. I cannot believe how mesmerized I was. I was hooked by the first line, and in love by the second paragraph. I didn’t expect to finish this in two days (due to book slump), I had a very simple plan for it: I was going to double read this and another, you know to see if I could balance it out. Nope not a damn chance. This isn't one of those books you double read. This is the type you sit and devour and give yourself into a hundred percent. From the moment I read the first chapter I was swept into this world: The Internet. Just like Hannah I have online friends I chat with on a daily basis and a writing buddy. So very quickly I related to the main character. 

I love the writing of this book. It was so honest, vulgar, and descriptive. Woooweee was this book descriptive. I don’t see a lot of Authors taking the leap with the kind of language in this book. And I’m so happy the book was the way it is. It felt more real to me. The plot was amazing, I never knew what was coming, and the book it self is well constructed. 

  • Hannah: I love how selfless this girl is. She’s funny, blunt, and so confident. She isn’t your typical bleak, weak main characters. I love how she loved her own body, and owned her self. She was comfortable with anything Matt suggested. She’s open minded and just all around a great character. 
  • Matt: Kind of an asshole, but I like it. Is that odd to say? Probably not. What’s weird to say is that I think Matt is a hunk of hotness. I have a feeling the Author did exactly what Matt did in the book: describe his character to look exactly like himself. And if that is true, then god bless the muse to Hannah. 
Matt did a lot of seriously messed up things. I just never thought they were wrong. For some reason I was always on his side. I rooted for him, when I shouldn’t have. And that leads me to my next thought: I love love love the interchanging chapters in this book. I think I’m very hard to please when it comes to that. It’s either the man starts to sounds like a weak little girl, or there just isn’t anything obvious that differentiate the two voices. In this book there was a hell of a difference, and I love that so much. I loved seeing Hannah from his point of view, and he from she. It gives the book so much more depth, and as it grows you start to feel their emotions through yourself. I highly recommend this book to everyone! If you're looking for a great adult romance: read it, if you're looking to get out of your comfort zone and dive into the unexpected: read it. Whatever you do, just read it. 

I love this mysterious Author, thank you for making my first finished book in 2015 one of my favorites. Your words, are simply bewitching. I cannot wait to read more.

Title: Volition | Author: Lily Paradis | Release Date: February 9, 2015 | Genre: Adult

Author Links: Website/Blog | Tumblr | Twitter | Goodreads Author Page | Instagram | Facebook
Book Links: Goodreads tbr | Pre-order me | Signed copy 

Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Yep, you aren't hallucinating, you're looking at the official cover for Volition and it's gorgeous!! Huge thanks to the talented Sarah Hansen of Okay Creations. This is  one of the most beautiful covers I've ever seen. I can't wait to have it in my hands, and just hug it and love it! The Empire State building is such a beautiful touch, and brings the cover to the next level. The cover is dark, beautiful enigma. 


Back Cover Description:

You know that feeling in the pit of your stomach that stays with you, then tears you apart slowly at first, and all at once shreds every fiber of your being?
It’s because you’re contradicting the universe.
Everything lines up so perfectly that you couldn’t have imagined it to work out any better, but then you have to go and do everything humanly possible to ruin it because you can’t stand to have it go right? 
That’s what I did.
I did it because there’s a darkness that surrounds me, and I think I want it there. My name is Tate McKenna, and my soul is blacker than my heart. 


Excerpt #1:

Right now it’s not enough to have just a little bit of Hayden.
I want all of him.
I want to be engulfed by him.
I want him to set me on fire and burn me until I’m nothing but ashes.
And then I want him to set a flame to those ashes, because he’s the only one who

can.

Excerpt #2:

I look up into the sky to see all of the drops falling on the ground before they make contact. I realize the drops have more in common with me than I think. We’re all just falling until we’re not falling, and we don’t really have a choice where we land. 



What others thought: 

"A read that will keep you on your toes until the very end. Genius!" - Makayla (The Book Life)

"This is a twisted tale... that you can relate to." - Bryce (Novels to Song)

“Beautifully twisted...A novel that shocks and surprises, and is not your typical love story. A gripping read filled with complex characters, dark humor and lyrical writing that leaves you wanting more! Paradis produced a story that carried a lot of emotion that dealt with love, relationships, and the darkness that surrounds death and the mark it leaves on those who have escaped it.” - Ashley F. (Falling Down the Book Hole)

"The story was lined with black and drowned in glitter... Volition is one of those books that makes you reflect on life's past, present, and future." - Abbey (Books a la Mode)

"I could not put this beautiful and dark tale of Tate McKenna down! Be with her as she discovers the impact that free will, fate and the act of letting go can have on a person!” - Jaclyn (Living in a World of Book Quotes)

Hiii loves, 

It has been so long since I've been on here.. I'm so sad to have been off for so long, but it isn't because I've lost interest. For the past two months I've been in this really bad book slump. I feel like it happens every year around this time where I just lose interest in reading and going through this huge book buying phase. God help me because it this is going to be a repeat of last year, I might just cry. Physically and mentally, I've been great. Nothing too special going on. I hope the same for you all, that everyone is nice and healthy and had a great thanks giving (if you celebrate) if not, well I hope you had a nice day off! I didn't want to end this year with a bunch of new books I'm cramming into one month. So I am going to stick with the four books I've been trying to finish since October.. (dec tbr here) Then I will spend the next year trying to start fresh and try to read a lot more. I guess I really just need to find the motivation.. I've still be pretty active in the book world, you can find me on twitter or instagram both at: @alluringtales. For some new things, I don't know if you guys knew but I have a booktube account. The last time I posted was in May probably and I'm really missing that and thinking of getting my back into it.. So we'll see how that goes, but for now this blog and my reading is my number one focus. I love this blog so much and I don't see myself moving on ever. Let's pray to the book gods my slump goes away! Happy reading, and hope you all have a wonderful and safe holiday!! <3
