Swoon Thursdays (57)


The ladies at YA Bound have created a hot and fun new meme called SWOON #YABound. If you want to join in here's what you need to do.

All you need to do is pick up the book you are currently reading or just finished reading. Find what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding and your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering. Then shout it out on Twitter with the hashtag  #YABound, post in the comments, or grab the awesome button from YA Bound (above) and share it on your blog!
This week my SWOON comes from an adult novel Pale Demon, by Kim Harrison. I've already used this Swoon before but my recent books haven't been very steamy, intense yes swoony, no. Since I really liked this scene I thought I would re-post it. Hope you enjoy!

"His tongue touched mine, and this time, I pushed forward, pulling him closer. My leg went around his, and I demanded more, running my hands through his hair, enjoying its silky softness, enjoying the feel of his hands on my body, tingles arcing through me." SWOON #YABound
Yep I still enjoyed reading that scene!! If you have a swoon leave a link so I can get more steamy Swoons:)

Most Anticipated (7)


Into the Woods: Tales from the Hollows and Beyond
This week My Most Anticipated Release of the Week is, Into the Woods: Tales from the Hollows and Beyond. I'm a huge fan of the The Hollows series by Kim Harrison. I can't wait to get my hands on this one. A collection of novellas including, Million Dollar Baby  told from Trent Kalamack's POV. Yeah, I wouldn't mind learning what's going on in his head. Hopefully these novellas will hold me over while I wait for book 11, Ever After. If not I can always re-read the series to get my fill of these amazing characters. Plus I recently learned that in the paperback edition of A Perfect Blood one of the chapters is told from Trent's POV. Let's just say I rushed out to read it immediately. The chapter gives insight into Trent thoughts about Rachel. I may have then re-read the chapter from Rachel's POV to compare. I'm not obsessed at all.

Into the Woods: Tales from the Hollows and Beyond, Kim Harrison, Expected Publication: October 9, 2012, Harper Voyager, Hardcover, 384 pgs.

Info:
A true queen of urban fantasy--the New York Times bestselling author of the wildly popular series featuring bounty hunter witch-turned-daywalking demon Rachel Morgan--the phenomenal Kim Harrison explores the Hollows more deeply than ever before in Into the Woods, her first collection of short stories. Rachel is here, as are Jenks the pixie, elven tycoon Trent Kalamack, and an unholy host of vampires, demons, shapeshifters, ghosts, and other assorted supernatural beings, friends and foes. Into the Woods combines original work, including a new Hollows novella, as well as all of Kim Harrison's previously published short fiction gathered together in one volume for the very first time. No true Hollows aficionado will want to pass this up.(Goodreads)

That's what I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this week. Are there any books coming out this week that you have to get your hands on?
