OK, so I got 19 posts in 7 days, a bit of a short week, but yeah, lots of great books, and another great week coming! What about you guys? Happy reading!

So this week I want to read Vicarious.

Two sisters. One future.

Winter Kim and her sister, Rose, have escaped the past and started over in a new place where no one knows who they used to be. Now they work as digital stunt girls for Rose's ex-boyfriend, Gideon, engaging in dangerous and enticing activities while recording their neural impulses for his Vicarious Sensory Experiences, or ViSEs. Whether it's bungee jumping, shark diving, or grinding up against celebrities at the city's hottest dance clubs, Gideon can make it happen for you, for a price.

When Rose disappears and a ViSE recording of her murder is delivered to Gideon, Winter is devastated. She won't rest until she finds her sister's killer. But when the clues she uncovers conflict with the digital recordings her sister made, Winter isn't sure what to believe. To find out what happened to Rose, she'll have to untangle what's real from what only seems real, risking her own life in the process.

Paula Stokes weaves together a series of mysteries and a love story between sisters in this unforgettable high-tech thrill ride.

  3. Okay.... Once I had 7 posts in one week and I thought I was the cat's whiskers (*hide in shame behind a door or under a table*). That is great! I've been eyeing the books on your right sidebar, want to have a look at Perilous Undertaking!

    1. I have my meme posts scheduled from either June/July to December, or January to May, so that makes it easy to get at least 12 posts a week, then there's review posts, and then any random posts, as well :) Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
