Library Thursday Blog Hop 3.3.11

Library Thursday is a weekly blog hop Hosted By Lazy Girl Reads and started to:

1. Encourage people to support their libraries when they can

 2. Meet new bloggy friends and grow your following

If you would like to hop along, visit  Lazy Girl Reads for the details.


My last visit to my Library was February 18th, just one day before the ending of our Adult Winter Reading. For my reading of four books during this event I was able to pick a free book from their winter reading cart, to keep forever as my own! How awesome is that? When I arrived at first glance the books seemed to really have been picked through. As all things I was running late and just made it in the nick of time. Thankfully I did find a book and happily so. My free book is Premonitions by Jude Watson. My book actually has a different cover than the one shown. The synopsis and cover below is provided by Amazon.




They weren't the ones who could have stopped her. I could have done that. I was the one who saw the future. I was the one who let her go. Grace has premonitions. They've haunted her since before her mother's death. She never knows whether she's seeing the past, the present, or the future. She doesn't know how to deal with them, and she doesn't want to - but the terrifying visions keep coming. Then Grace's best friend Emily disappears. And suddenly the premonitions she's so scared of are the only way Grace might be able to save her friend before it's too late...



+++++
My last returns were of The Fey World. I only recently finished up The Iron King and The Iron Daughter. There is a reason I have not made a visit to my Library recently. My reading stack is growing, ever wonderfully so, but growing. Once my reading is caught up, I will return to my Library again. It is my way of showing support to my wonderful Library and I am participating in the Library Challenge.

Here are a couple books I am looking forward to checking out when I get caught up.

Blood and chocolate / Annette Curtis Klause.
Imprint:New York, N.Y. : Bantam Doubleday Dell Books for Young Readers, [1999], c1997.
Notes:Having fallen for a human boy, a beautiful teenage werewolf must battle both her pack mates and the fear of the townspeople to decide where she belongs and with whom.

Note:"Reprinted by arrangement with Delacorte Press ... October 1999"--T.p. verso.

Once a witch / by Carolyn MacCullough.
Imprint:Boston : Clarion Books, 2009.

Notes:Born into a family of witches, seventeen-year-old Tamsin is raised believing that she alone lacks a magical "Talent," but when her beautiful and powerful sister is taken by an age-old rival of the family in an attempt to change the balance of power, Tamsin discovers her true destiny.

Omg your blog!!! Has it been that long that I've missed all the super awesome changes?!

Cool books this week :-D



I love reading about Vampires, Werewolves, Zombies, Demons, Fallen Angels, Witches, Magic, Dragons, Fairies, Elves, and completely getting lost in their world. Blogging, writing, and poetry are all of my favorite things. The Wytch's Mirror is my book blog where I share my views, my spiritualism, and my reviews, while reflecting on the books I read. I support my local library and I love promoting authors with virtual book tours, author interviews, guest posts and giveaways.

[Book Reviews, Poems, Spells, Chants, Recipes, Music, Gardening, Cooking, Environmental Issues, Nature, Animals, and Witchcraft.]
