A Different Blue - TOP TEN MOMENTS - Written by Amy Harmon, Published March, 2013


  • Number 10 
''I grew up - found out what I wanted to do with my life. Sometimes the things we want to be rescued from can save us. ''
  •  Number 9 
  ''Why don't you focus on where you're going and less on where you come from? Why don't you focus more on what makes you brilliant and less on what you angry? ''

  • Number 8 
    ''"A handkerchief?! What are you, eighty-five?"

  • Number 7
''Suddenly, action was required. The cameras were rolling, and I didn't know my lines, I was overcome by stage fright, of the strangers in the audience, of the scenes I hadn't studied and couldn't possibly prepare for. And above all, I didn't want Wilson to see me in the spotlight once more, the light unflattering, the storyline tragic, violent and depressing. ''

  • Number 6
''I felt her sag against me, and then she was clinging to me desperately, sobbing, grieving for a man she had mistreated, for a daughter she had failed and a granddaughter she had lost. ''

  • Number 5
''I lay in stunned surprise, waiting for him to loosen his grip, waiting for his hands to touch, for his body to move, but his arms stayed locked around me, his body remained still. And there, in the circle of his arms, held so fiercely that there was no room to doubt him or fear his loss, I slept.''

  • Number 4
'' Pride & Prejudice?'' ''How did you know?'' he smiled.
''I have a thing for Mr. Darcy. ''

  • JOINT Number 3
''I was spent without compromise, sated without sacrifice, completely and totally head-over-heals in love. And it was delicious. ''

''Sometimes I feel like I have a huge, gaping hole from my chin to my waist, wide open negative space that life has just carved away. ''
  • Number 2
''You were emotionally rocked in Reno, just like I was in London, and you needed me, but you didn't need me that way. Someday, hopefully bloody soon - because I will combust if I ever have to spend a night like that again - you will want me because you love me, not because you're lost, not because you're desperate, not because you're afraid. And that's the goal.''

  • NUMBER 1


''Once upon a time there was a little bird who was placed in a 

 nest. Wanted. Cherished. Unafraid, because she knew she was a

 hawk, a beautiful bird, worthy of awe, deserving of love. . . ''

All Fall Down by Ally Carter My rating: 3 of 5 stars Super savvy spy-thriller by NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Ally Carter. Need I say more?! Recipe for kick-ass spy thriller: 5 spoonfuls of dark espionage 4 ounces of HOT Russian love interest 2 tsp of ambiguity add 1 ounce of creative genius. Stir generously and consume with care. Oh, Carter, you've done it again... All Fall Down     is the first in Ally Carter's Embassy Row Series and starts off with a bang. The story combines the joys of a good thriller with the right amount of fine-tuned conspiracy. I must confess that I wasn't the biggest fan of the Heist Society books, for whatever unknown reason I couldn't quite connect to the characters. I tried and tried, but in the end decided to move on. I know, big, fat sigh. Regardless, I was really excited for this one to hit the 'virtual' shelves. Everyone knows I'm sucker for a good spy-thriller wit...

Book talk - Review of Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover

By BookblogBuzz
Alright, deep breaths guys... I'm really not quite sure where to begin with this.  First, I'd like to thank Colleen once again for sharing her talent with us; her very faithful readers.  Secondly, I think it's most impressive that there has not been one single book of hers that I didn't like. I mean, not one, not even close and I think that is quite something. I'd say I'm quite a tough cookie to break and certainly have quite high standards when it comes to literature in general. Long story short; I'm quite hard to please. Colleen however has found a way to waltz right through that tough exterior and hits the target every time.   If I'm totally honest with you, I have the strangest feeling Colleen is actually a Witch. Like, a fully fledged magical being with the most wonderful imagination. So if you're reading this right now and you're thinking, ''heck, what is this chick on about... magic isn't real...''  I urg...
