Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction BEA, Book Events 0

Review & Giveaway – Dark Light of Day and Fiery Edge of Steel by Jill Archer

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction Giveaways (Ended), Reviews 0 ★★★★

Dark Light of Day is a unique fantasy novel that takes place after Armageddon – after the demons won. The world is now run by demons, and humans with no powers (or Hyrkes, as they’re called in this book) are meant to adore them. Of course, someone has to keep those demons in line, and that’s the job of the Maegesters, humans with a drop of demon blood who posses waning powers – which gives them the ability to destroy demons. Typically, men are born with waning powers and women are born with waxing powers (which give the ability to heal). But Noon and her twin brother are anomalies – their powers were somehow switched at birth. Or at least that’s the way Noon sees it. She wants nothing to do with her powers at all, and hopes desperately that her best friend (who also happens to be an Angel… Read more »

Top Ten Characters I Love to Hate

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction Top Ten Tuesday 0

Today’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Characters I Love to Hate Gotta give some respect to those villains, right? Our books just wouldn’t be the same without them! Here are the ones that came to mind: From The Lunar Chronicles Wiki Queen Levana from Cinder by Marissa Meyer – I recently finally read Cinder, so this villain came immediately to mind. Levana is amazingly beautiful on the outside (due to a glamour, of course), but completely evil on the inside. Her gift to Kai just after his father’s death pretty much seals her status as a perfect villain. FreeDigitalPhotos.net Daedalus from The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout – Okay, this isn’t really a specific character, but a whole government agency. Of course, there are some nasty Arum in this series too, but I think it’s clear that Daedalus is home to the true bad guys! FreeDigitalPhotos.net The Doctor from All Our Yesterdays by Cristin Terrill – The doctor is… Read more »

5 Star Review & Giveaway – Prisoner of Night and Fog by Anne Blankman

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction Giveaways (Ended), Reviews 0 ★★★★½

“Debut novelist Blankman’s account of life in Munich prior to Hitler’s 1933 elevation to the chancellorship is completely engrossing….Blankman creates riveting tension for her heroine and pulls readers through with an irresistible subplot featuring forbidden love.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) “I’m in awed envy of the daring with which Anne Blankman plunges into her difficult and sensitive subject matter. To read Prisoner of Night and Fog is to be immersed in a breathtaking evocation of Munich in the 1930s, where life is ordinary and skin-crawling by turns, and in the painful, hopeful story of one young girl’s awakening conscience. It’s terrifying and incredible to think how much of this story is true.” — Elizabeth Wein, award-winning author of Code Name Verity “Prisoner of Night and Fog seamlessly blends the fascinating, terrifying facts of Hitler’s rise to power with a gripping murder mystery. Gretchen is a brave and believable protagonist,… Read more »

5 Star Review & Giveaway – The Mind’s Eye by K.C. Finn

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction Giveaways (Ended), Reviews 1 ★★★★★

There are so many reasons that I loved this book! While historical fiction isn’t always my thing, I’ve always been interested in World War II – not necessarily the battles, but the human stories that played out in that time (in fact, I’m reviewing another WWII book on Friday – I think that these are the only two WWII books I’ve read since Anne Frank when I was in middle school and I’ve managed to read them one right after the other). Well, anyway, this book mixed some paranormal in with the historical fiction aspect, which made it perfect! The negatives: A few small moments. I honestly had a hard time coming up with negatives for this book. But there were a few small moments when I found myself wondering why Kit didn’t just use her powers in a certain way to help someone who needed her. At one particular… Read more »
