Quem diria que 2012 seria um ano tão animado?! No meio de tudo o que não é relevante para este artigo, mas que foi brutalmente importante nos restantes aspectos da minha vida, 2012 foi um ano muito preenchido.
O lançamento do meu livro ‘Percepção’ trouxe os seus frutos no decorrer deste ano. Entre entrevistas, opiniões e uma miríade de efeitos derivados, 2012 foi o ano de ‘Percepção’. Podem acompanhar todas as novidades no blogue dedicado a este livro.
Estamos naquela altura do ano em que começamos a olhar para trás e a pensar no que se segue. 2012 foi um ano muito animado quanto a leituras. Recorrendo aqui ao Goodreads (uma espantosa ferramenta que ajuda a manter o registo dos livros lidos) este ano conto 102 leituras, excluindo os que reli ou li original e tradução portuguesa.
À semelhança do ano passado, deixo-vos uma pequena lista dos livros que marcaram o meu 2012:
This is my Reading Romances monthly status. May brought us sci-fi or futuristic themes, favorite author or genre, friend recommendations and for Special Events Memorial or Mother’s Day choices. I managed to read 2 of the 4 books mentioned in the beginning of this month. My choices were:
1) Read a futuristic or sci-fi romance – Tangle of Need by Nalini Singh (I really don’t know what came on to me because this book release date was May 29th in the States. Wishful thinking… I guess) / Unmasked by C.J. Barry (this one was a very nice surprise and my starting point for C.J. Barry books).
My first book choice for Reading Romances Challenge was Psy-Changelings Series ‘Slave to Sensation’ by Nalini Sigh.
Since its Alternate Realities month I decided to give a shot at the Psy-Changelings Series, and I’m very glad I did. I really love the constant twists and turns of this new kind of society, one that tries to accommodate three types of races: human’s, psy and changelings.
‘Georgina Kincaid has had an eternity to figure out the opposite sex, but sometimes they still surprise her. Take Seth Mortensen. The man has risked his soul to become Georgina’s boyfriend. Still, with Lucifer for a boss, Georgina can’t just hang up her killer heels and settle down to domestic bliss. In fact, she’s being forced to transfer operations. . .to Las Vegas.
The City of Sin is a dream gig for a succubus, but Georgina’s allies are suspicious. Why are the powers-that-be so eager to get her away from Seattle—and from Seth? Georgina is one of Hell’s most valuable assets, but if there’s any way out of the succubus business she plans to take it—no matter how much roadkill she leaves behind. She just hopes the casualties won’t include the one man she’s risking everything for. . .’
29th of February. Already?!? This month went by in a breeze, and here I am again, doing the monthly status of the Reading Romances Challenge 2012.
February was a challenge at several levels and here I am contemplating this month guidelines and evaluating my reading performance. The February’s book prompts were:
So here’s my Reading Romances January Challenge status. The prompt was to choose a book that:
A) Is a first of a series, by an author that is “new” to you or a debut novel by an author.
