TBR Tuesday #3

The reason stays I have no intention of dragging the books with me all the time, so Kindle is used at school (and sometimes at home, let's face it some of the books are just fabulous)

Okay...TBR jar pick for this week (hopefully only a week *meep*) is Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.


When Elizabeth Bennet first meets eligible bachelor Fitzwilliam Darcy, she thinks him arrogant and conceited; he is indifferent to her good looks and lively mind. When she later discovers that Darcy has involved himself in the troubled relationship between his friend Bingley and her beloved sister Jane, she is determined to dislike him more than ever. In the sparkling comedy of manners that follows, Jane Austen shows the folly of judging by first impressions and superbly evokes the friendships, gossip and snobberies of provincial middle-class life.


I have picked it up for the second time and I hope it will go better this time, becuase well...Let's be honest, i had somewhat wrong version of it in Kindle (i didn't actually download it from amazon and it was written weirdly) and also I had trouble understanding the language. I hope for the best that this will last! Also have I mentioned you can get this one for free on Amazon for your Kindle or Kindle app?

TBR Tuesday #2

This time the reason behind it is the fact I don't want to drag books with me in the bag full of my school books. So i'm reading e-books. Kindle is really a big helper.

Yet again I used my TBR jar to choose from and I pulled out The Beholder  by Ivan Amberlake.




This books is about two sides warring. The good - the Light, these are the people whow take have power over the "light" emotions such as love and happiness and use it to their advantage. Their oppposition are the shadows, who use a anger and fear to overpower people. And it wouldn't be any fantasy novel if it didn't have any knowledge of what is going on behind the curtain of real world. And that he is the one to help the Lighters win the world.

I've already started reading it and it has really interesting beginning. Not really explaining what who is what. The first scene is a fight and it catches your attention straight away with hints and whatnots about the world it is set in.

Then it hopes to the main character introducing it to us. This is so far I got. But it's already interesting! Keeping on reading it.

Double Dare ~ review

Format: Ebook (.mobi) | 176 pages
File size: 360 KB
Publication date: 28 October 2011
Publisher: RhondaNelson

Goodreads | Amazon

Runaway bride Louisa Honeycut is looking for a quick escape when she passes the Double Dare, Inc sign and the slogan "Are you ready for the time of your life?" seems like divine intervention. Sheltered by her overbearing father, Louisa has years of catching up to do and can think of no better person than gorgeous Sam Rawlins to show her. Is she ready for the time of her life? Hell, yes.

Ordinarily unflappable adventure guide Sam Rawlins makes his living showing the wealthy how to have fun, but nothing in his experience could have prepared him for the "adventure" Louisa Honeycut asks for. He might be showing Louisa the time of her life, but the quirky little snack-cake heiress is soon turning Sam's own life upside down...and perversely, he likes the new vantage point.




I should mention that this book is out there for free on Kindle. So those who have it or the app, go for it! This book was kind of something new to me. I don' usually read romance books but I have to state it is a good book.

It is fast paced and dispite that it's a short novel it didn't lack anything. It had the beginning, the middle and even a good ending. The characters were neatly described and there was nothing that could mistake me in imagining them.

I had some antipathy against this type of the novel, because as far as romance novels go, it can get freaking sweet and disgusting. But this one...It didn't have any of it. Yes there were some descriptions that are not for under aged reader, but nothing too sweet. Straight forward. That's what I liked about it

If you don't have much time and you want to read a good book this one is the right one to pick. I was surprised that it had 176 pages but the story flew and I just kept reading until I finished the book.

TBR Tuesday #1

So...waiting for the WBB 2016, I got bored and was in need of to read something. Reaching into my TBR jar. which is halfway full, by the way. I pulled out paper with Double Dare written on it.

This book is something I haven't tried yet. A romance, short one to say only 106 pages. Might be finished today or the next day. I hope I won't put it away after few pages because the synopsis didn't sound that bad. Also I think it is good to say that I got it on Kindle for free!

Free books and then some

Everyone likes free books, right? And why not spread the word where to get them when it's cost free? 

So first of people who own Kindle are lucky, they get free books from Amazon, even when the paperbacks or hardbacks cost 14€. But fear not! There is also an app for android or ios called The kindle app . It's basically book reader for tablets and phones. Yet it's free and people on low budget like me might greatly appreciate it.

This is how the app looks like, for those who don't know:
