Just read Pandemonium

A few weeks ago Danielle gave me the book Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver. I finally had no AP homework to complete so today at noon I decided to sit down and read the sequel to my favorite book Delirium. A few hours later all I can say is:







 I might be able to write a decent review in a few days once I get my emotions together.

Breaking Waves (Heart Waves #2) Cover Reveal!



I was lucky enough to be apart of the Breaking Waves Cover Reveal! If you remember  I posted a review of Heart Waves (the first book the the series) in June. It was such a fantastic and addicting novel. If you have not check out Heart Waves yet, you should really do that now, before the sequel comes out!

But, before I talk about how awesome this book is here is the beautiful cover for Breaking Waves!


I really like the colors and flow that these covers had and I have to say, I like this one better then the first!

Internet and Mr. Darcy!

Hey guys! First I want to say thanks for sticking with me if you are reading this post. I know With A Book has been really crazy lately. I know I promised you some reviews, but my internet went out after that post. I didn't get it back until last night. So in honor of finally getting my internet back I thought I would do a post on what I think of LBD's new Mr.Darcy!

If you guys have not seen the new Darcy yet, or haven't gotten to that episode you should leave now!

Honestly, when I first saw Darcy I was a little iffy but then when the actor worked his magic, it just worked. He pulls Darcy off perfectly. He's cute, has the sophisticated mannerism, and you can see he really likes Lizzy. 

I can't wait to see what happens next with these two, but until then I will be watching all the amazing tumblr posts about LBD. 




This series is really just amazing. 
So go watch it! Whether you have read P&P or not you will love this one.

Review: Venom


Venom (Secrets of the Eternal Rose, #1)Venom 
By: Fiona Paul
Released Date: October 30th, 2012
Published by Philomel Books

Venom is a novel that will have everyone, no matter what age or gender, hooked. Everything from the suspenseful writing to the beautiful descriptions makes this a very hard novel to put down. Venom takes place in the renaissance period of Venice, following the main character Cassandra. She is lucky enough to be a part of the elite society in Venice, with everything that includes, from elegant gowns, her own maid, and a wealthy fiancé.
                However, Cassandra finds herself is a strange situation as she discovers a murdered women were the body of her recently deceased friend should be. Cass, as she starts looking for answers, gets caught up in the mysteries of Venice. With the help of Falco, a starving artist, she roams the city of Venice to try and find the murder who took her friends body.
                Venom was so different then other young adult novels. For instance it doesn’t take place in America, as most YA books usually do. It was something new and fresh to read. The novel was also a fantastic mystery. As more bodies are turning up dead, the reader is not sure what characters they can trust. Fiona Paul put so many secrets and lies hidden in the canals of Venice that just added to the suspense.
                Paul had a distinctive way of writing that made it so easy for the reader to visualize the city of Venice. Which was sometimes beautiful but sometimes grotesque as the reader gets to experience the high class life as well as the life of a starving artist in historical Venice. Venom is a novel that is perfect for someone who is looking for something different to read. It’s also the first in the series, which will have readers dying for the sequel by the end.   
And I just have to add that I ADORE the romance in this novel. Both guys Falco, and her fiance were so great! I would be happy with either one of them. But what I really enjoyed about the romace was the fact that it was practical. Yes, she is involved with two guys, but one was an arrange marriage to a guy she hasn't seen in years. I'm really curious as to what will happen in the next novel.

Hurricane News

Hey guys :)

As you know I live in New Jersey and I'm sure you've seen pictures of what the hurricane did to the state. I also got a few emails and tweets asking if I was okay. Well, I'm about 30 minutes from the shore so I didn't get hit to bad. Basically the whole town lost power on Monday and there's still a huge chunk without it. But besides all the trees down that's the worst of the damage here.

Venom (Secrets of the Eternal Rose, #1)
One good thing\that happen due to the storm was all the books I finished. Since Sunday night I have so many review novels. Which is a huge accomplishment for me, I've been so busy with my AP classes and marching band that I just havn't had time. When the power went out I was so hooked in Vemon by Fiona Paul I lost feeling in my arms just holding the flashlight up so I could see it.

I'm going to try and do a post tomorrow on all the books I read and what I thought. Later I'll have full review of the novels up. But I've been neglecting my school work since I haven't been able to put down any non school related books. I need to get some done for AP English by Monday...

Thanks for all the support through emails and twitter. You guys are really great.
