Announcement: New Design + Giveaway

Hello loverlies! As you can see, ASR is sporting a shiny new design! I quite liked the teal design, but I have some MAJOR changes happening this month for my 2 year blogiversary and I want to ease into them slowly so I don’t confuse my readers. There is a point to the squiggly line, I promise ;) To celebrate (and help spread the word), I’ve decided to host a giveaway!  For my regular readers, please take a moment to […]

Undersea Spotlight: On Emily’s Bookshelf

Undersea Spotlight: On Emily’s Bookshelf
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on October 8, 2013 | 0 Comments

I started this feature here at ASR in order to know your fellow bloggers a little better! If you are interested in being featured please fill out the form.   Meet Emily! I’m a nerdy 13-year-old whom loves books & mismatched socks from Ohio. I have a book blog, of course, and I have a short story out for Kindle, which I shall shamelessly plug HERE.       How long have you been blogging? What made you want to start […]

I Think I Have a Serious, Er…Series Problem

I Think I Have a Serious, Er…Series Problem
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on October 7, 2013 | 23 Comments

Once again I don’t have a Monday review (damn PTBD), so today I’m going to talk about series. I am afraid of series. Why? I’m not particularly sure. With really good books, perhaps I’m afraid that the second book won’t compare to the first. With last books, perhaps I’m afraid to end the series. But I’m pretty sure it’s a commitment issue for me. I tend to read the first book and never continue! It’s not necessarily that I don’t want to read […]

Undersea Spoils (36): Library Sale + Brandon Sanderson Signing

Undersea Spoils (36): Library Sale + Brandon Sanderson Signing
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on October 6, 2013 | 24 Comments

This is my replacement for IMM.  Nothing exciting to report about the Brandon Sanderson signing – I went after work so I missed the whole panel. Just went to get a couple books signed, and the line was HUGE! We had to get number tickets and I was #56 in line. We were there for an hour and a half just waiting to get books signed, it was ridiculous! I haven’t even read anything of his, that’s the sad part. […]

[PnRC] October is for Ghosts: Link Your Reviews!

Sign up HERE.     October’s feature: Ghosts!   This is yet another category that I haven’t really delved into. Here are a few that I have read:     None of these books rated over 4 stars for me. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m not particularly interested in ghost stories, or if I just haven’t found the right one for me yet. Who knows! Usually I pick a book of the genre to read this month, but because of […]
