FROM MTV'S HOLLYWOOD CRUSH...

YA Blockbuster 'Obsidian' Is Off To The Movies

Posted 41 mins ago by Kat Rosenfield in Movie News, Movies, Page Turners


If you're wondering where to find the next big thing in supernatural romance, here's a little tidbit of news that ought to pique your interest: According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jennifer Armentrout's "Lux" series is off to Hollywood! Sierra Pictures has picked up the option on the majorly best-selling saga. And with five titles anticipated, a film based on the first book, "Obsidian," could kick off the kind of multi-film mayhem that gives the Cullens a run for their money.

As these things go, "Obsidian" starts out sounding like your typical teen romance: a story of the new girl at school and the mysterious, charismatic, cocky boy who steals her heart while simultaneously getting on her very last nerve. But when the boy in question turns out to be some sort of alien hottie at the center of an intergalactic space war, things get very atypical, very fast. Could this be the epic saga that gives that other saga a run for its money? Will the extraterrestrial dude-next-door replace the sparkly vampire as this decade's must-have supernatural boyfriend? DISCUSS.



What do you think about a big-screen adaptation of "Obsidian"?

Review: Caressed by Shadows

Caressed by Shadows by Amanda J. Greene
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Number 4 of the Rulers of Darkness Series.
This book focused on Sonya and Falcon.
Now if you read the previous booms you’d know they both had a thing for each other, but because of vampiric laws they could not be together. Or the consequences would be dire. However, things done always work they are supposed to and well stuff happens. Especially when you got a young Shaman priestess hanging about.

This book honestly for me, was a in between book. The book that I’m more excited to read is the next one Caressed by the Edge of Darkness. This one while it was still a great book, just didn’t float my boat like the others have. Though I do like the Shaman Priestess and am highly intrigued on what her plan is and what the end game is for it.

Reading and Blogging about the books I read.

Now right now until things settle and I get back into the swing of things. I will not be accepting offers for reviews of books. I do apologize, they tend to get stock piled, and I am not in a position to be able to accept and read them in a timely manner. I will let you know when i'm open for reviews again.

Right now i'm going through my TBR list and maxing out some of those books that have been sitting in my list for years. I'm going back to enjoying reading again.

So to start of this year I do have some books I plan on reading. I do not have a timeline of when they will be completed or anything. Again, going back to reading f…
