Woo! So check out what is on my reading list. You know I really like doing these weekly segments and sharing my love of reading with you readers. My boyfriend says I love books more than him and well, he may be right. I love to read, what can I say? Anyway, let’s get down to business, you’re not here to read about my love life. Remember, these synopsis are provided by GoodReads seeing as I still have no idea what they are about yet.

   The Map of the Sky (Trilogía Victoriana #2)
   

   By: Félix J. Palma

   The New York Times bestselling author of The Map of Time returns with a mesmerizing novel casting H.G. Wells in a leading role, as the extraterrestrial invasion featured in The War of the Worlds is turned into a bizarre reality.
   

   A love story serves as backdrop for The Map of the Sky when New York socialite Emma Harlow agrees to marry millionaire Montgomery Gilmore, but only if he accepts her audacious challenge: to reproduce the extraterrestrial invasion featured in Well’s War of the Worlds. What follows are three brilliantly interconnected plots to create a breathtaking tale of time travel and mystery, replete with cameos by a young Edgar Allan Poe, and Captain Shackleton and Charles Winslow from The Map of Time.

   Five Days Left
   

   By:  Julie Lawson Timmer

   A heart-wrenching debut about two people who must decide how much they’re willing to sacrifice for love.
   

   Mara Nichols, a successful lawyer, and devoted wife and adoptive mother, has recently been diagnosed with a terminal disease. Scott Coffman, a middle school teacher, has been fostering an eight-year-old boy while the boy’s mother serves a jail sentence. Scott and Mara both have five days left until they must say good-bye to the ones they love the most. Through their stories, Julie Lawson Timmer explores the individual limits of human endurance, the power of relationships, and that sometimes loving someone means holding on, and sometimes it means letting go.

I’m not going to lie, the last book on the list really doesn’t interest me, but it was a free book so I’m going to read it and give it a chance. It’s just, it’s not really my genre, but I’m going to read it objectively and try to enjoy it. Maybe I’ll like it.

Let me know what’s in your reading list in the comments below. But, you know what you should add to your reading list? The book I wrote! I know, I’m shameless. Just check out my new novel BLOOD HUNGER. Happy Monday everyone!
