Just Blinded Book Reviews
Congrats!!! I just emailed the 3 winners and they have 3 days to reply before I'll pick a new winner. This was a fun contest, and thanks for entering everyone. :)
I just wanted to remind everyone that I'm hosting a Secret Santa, which I started 2 weeks ago. Click here! Deadline to sign up is December 1st, for now - so go do that, and spread the word please! Thanks. :)
For those who have never done it, here's how it works. After everybody sign's up/enters, I will pair everyone up so each person has a partner. You'll be given a wishlist of 10-15 books from your partner, and you simply mail them out a book from that list! (Or, if you're very generous, you can include more than one book!) And you'll get your own package in the mail, too. But the fun part is, you don't know who your partner is or what your exact gift will be!
Book Review: Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
Published: October 2007
My Rating: 4.5 stars
YA | Realistic | Gothic
Includes: Profanity, Suicide, Sexuality
First Lines: A shoebox-sized package is propped against the front door at an angle. Our front door has a tiny slot to shove mail through, but anything thicker than a bar of soap gets left outside.

This week's WoW book is Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl! It will be released on December 1, 2009.
Book Description:
Hey everybody! :) So just as I promised, to celebrate my getting 200 followers near the beginning of November (the number has now been raised to 218!) I'm holding a contest. There will be one winner, with three books as the prize: Ghost Huntress 1: The Awakening, Ghost Huntress 2: The Guidance, and The Other Side. All are books written by Marley Gibson.
Book Description:
In this first book in the Ghost Huntress series, a move from downtown Chicago to small-town Radisson, Ga., brings about a psychic awakening for 16-year old Kendall, as spirits that roam her house and town recognize her ability to see them and clamor for her attention. Initially seeking rational explanations for these unsettling experiences,
Kendall gradually accepts her psychic powers as a divine gift, believing God has called her to free trapped spirits. Honing her skills under the guidance of Loreen, who runs a New Age store in town, Kendall assembles an eclectic ghost-hunting team: Celia, the brainy techno-wizard; preppy photographer Taylor; and punk Becca, sound analyst. The story is fiction. The science is real. Welcome to a new reality.

Book Review: Sweethearts by Sara Zarr
Published: January 2009
My Rating: 4.5 stars
YA | Romance | Girls | Realistic
Includes: Brief profanity, Brief alcohol abuse, Sexuality
First Lines: Some memories are slippery. There are things I want to remember about Cameron Quick that I can't entirely, like the pajamas he wore when he used to sleep over, and his favorite cereal, or how it felt to hold his hand as we walked home from school in third grade.
