You Owe Me a Murder Blog Tour! Review and Q&A with Eileen Cook

Title: You Owe Me a Murder Author: Eileen Cook Release Date: March 5, 2019 Publisher: HMH Books for Young Readers Pages: 368 Source: ARC provided by Raincoast Books Add to Goodreads | Amazon.ca | Indigo Overall: 4 STARS SUMMARY   Seventeen-year-old Kim gets more than she bargained for when she is set up for murder. Perfect for fans of One of Us is Lying , E. Lockhart, and Gillian Flynn. 17-year-old Kim never expected to plot a murder. But that was before her boyfriend dumped her for another girl. Now, Kim’s stuck on a class trip to London with him and his new soulmate and she can’t help wishing he was a little bit dead, even if she’d never really do that.  But when Kim meets Nicki, a stranger on the plane who’s more than willing to listen to Kim’s woes, things start to look up. Nicki's got a great sense of humor, and when she jokes about swapping murders, Kim plays along—that is, until Kim’s ex-boyfriend mysteriously dies. Blackmailed by Nicki to fulfill her end of the deal,...

Waiting on Wednesday - Shimmer by Paula Weston

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine spotlighting upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.

Release Date: March 8, 2016
Publisher: Tundra Books

Summary (from Penguin Random House Canada):
Gaby thought her life couldn't get more complicated.

She's almost used to the idea that she's not the teenage backpacker she thought she was. She can just about cope with being one of the Rephaim--a 139-year-old half-angel--whose memories have been stolen. She's even coming to grips with the fact that Jude, the brother she's mourned for a year, didn't die at all.

But now Rafa--sexy, infuriating Rafa--is being held, and hurt, by Gatekeeper demons. And Gaby has to get the bitterly divided Rephaim to work together, or Rafa has no chance at all.

I feel like we've been waiting FOREVER to read Paula Weston's Shimmer. Australian readers, you're so lucky you didn't have to practically wait two years to find out what happens to Rafa and Gaby next. I need to know! I needed to know yesterday. And the day before.

But it's okay. I know the wait will be worth it in the end! And I can comfort myself by saying at least we'll get Burn, the final book in the Rephaim series, a few months later. In the meantime, I'll be re-reading Shadows and Haze again to refresh my memory. This series is absolutely addictive and thrilling.

Review: Uncommon Criminals by Ally Carter

Title: Uncommon Criminals Author: Ally Carter Publisher: Disney Hyperion Publication Date: June 21, 2011 Series: Heist Society #2 Links: Amazon | Goodreads Source: Purchased Katarina Bishop has worn a lot of labels in her short life life. Friend. Niece. Daughter. Thief. But for the last two months she’s simply been known as the girl who ran the crew that robbed the greatest museum in the world. That’s why Kat isn’t surprised when she’s asked to steal the infamous Cleopatra Emerald so it can be returned to its rightful owners. There are only three problems. First, the gem hasn’t been seen in public in thirty years. Second, since the fall of the Egyptian empire and the suicide of Cleopatra, no one who holds the emerald keeps it for long, and in Kat’s world, history almost always repeats itself. But it’s the third problem that makes Kat’s crew the most nervous and that is simply… the emerald is cursed. Kat might be in way over her head, but she’s not going down without a fight. Af...

Waiting on Wednesday: The Raincoast Books TeensRead Winter/Spring 2016 Preview Edition

Last Saturday, I was invited to attend the Raincoast Books TeensRead Preview of their upcoming Winter and Spring 2016 titles at the Toronto Reference Library. Hosted by Vanessa of Ampersand Inc. and Jenn from Lost in a Great Book in Toronto, it was my first time taking part in the preview!
