Follow Friday: features I have

Question of the Week: Have you come up with any special memes or features on your blog that you'd like people to visit more? - Suggested byTake Me Away

I actually started a new meme this week called Reverse Thursday.
Here is my intro page Reverse Thursday and here is my first post Reverse Thursday with the mr linky. I really hope it's something that people will like because I need that extra push to read an older book. :)

I also started a feature awhile back that I only did for a short time, but I really want to get back to doing it. It's called Are you a bookaholic? I thought they were pretty fun questions. Depending on how I do it again I might even add a $5 dollar gift card for the people that choose to do the feature. Who knows?

Another little feature I do is called Questions? Answered! 

You know when you find those interesting discussions and maybe you feel like writing a whole paragraph about it, or something well I turned that into something. Go take a look. (I do this sporadically)

Another feature I do sporadically is called "Books I'd quit support group for" which I haven't done one in awhile it's sort of a WOW, but not.

Books I'd quit support group for (main)

Books I'd quit support group for was inspired by Kristi from The Story Siren posts "Books To Pine For" and Ashley from What's your story's Books I want so badly I could pee posts. I wanted to do something similar.So I called it "Books I'd quit support group for" because let's face it some of these books sound so much better and sometimes look so much better then sitting and staring at people in a group and listening to their problems when you could be home reading and enjoying that fictional world. :)  

Have you ever just browsed though good reads, or typed in one of your favorite books and gone over to the "Readers also enjoyed section" and scrolled through those. I think that's one of the reasons I find so many books that I want to read. These usually are books that have yet to be published which makes it that much harder for me because I'm like I want it. So here is where some of those books will go.

OUTLINE:
A high-stakes online game of dares turns deadly

When Vee is picked to be a player in NERVE, an anonymous game of dares broadcast live online, she discovers that the game knows her. They tempt her with prizes taken from her ThisIsMe page and team her up with the perfect boy, sizzling-hot Ian. At first it’s exhilarating—Vee and Ian’s fans cheer them on to riskier dares with higher stakes. But the game takes a twisted turn when they’re directed to a secret location with five other players for the Grand Prize round. Suddenly they’re playing all or nothing, with their lives on the line. Just how far will Vee go before she loses NERVE?

OUTLINE:
My name is Beatrice. When I was born, I was blessed with the Sight. I was immediately removed from my parents and enrolled in the Institution. At the age of twelve, I had my first true vision, earning my raven’s wings. And when I turned seventeen, one of my visions came true. Things haven’t been the same since.

The Institution depends on me to keep the City safe from our enemy, the Dreamcatchers, but I’m finding it harder to do while keeping a secret from everyone, including my best friend Gabe. It is a secret that could put us all in danger. A secret that could kill me and everyone close to me.

The enemy has been coming to me in my dreams, and I think I'm falling in love with him. He says they're coming. He says they're angry. And I think I've already helped them win.

OUTLINE:
In the future, only one rule will matter: Don’t. Ever. Peek.

Seventeen-year-old Ari Alexander just broke that rule and saw the last person she expected hovering above her bed--arrogant Jackson Locke, the most popular boy in her school. She expects instant execution or some kind of freak alien punishment, but instead, Jackson issues a challenge: help him, or everyone on Earth will die.

Ari knows she should report him, but everything about Jackson makes her question what she’s been taught about his kind. And against her instincts, she’s falling for him. But Ari isn’t just any girl, and Jackson wants more than her attention. She’s a military legacy who’s been trained by her father and exposed to war strategies and societal information no one can know--especially an alien spy, like Jackson. Giving Jackson the information he needs will betray her father and her country, but keeping silent will start a war.

PUBLISHER: Simon and Schuster
OUTLINE:
As an obedient orphan of the U.N.A. (the super-country that was once Mexico, the U.S., and Canada), Alenna learned at an early age to blend in and be quiet—having your parents taken by the police will do that to a girl. But Alenna can’t help but stand out when she fails a test that all sixteen-year-olds have to take: The test says she has a high capacity for brutal violence, and so she is sent to The Wheel, an island where all would-be criminals end up.

The life expectancy of prisoners on The Wheel is just two years, but with dirty, violent, and chaotic conditions, the time seems a lot longer as Alenna is forced to deal with civil wars for land ownership and machines that snatch kids out of their makeshift homes. Desperate, she and the other prisoners concoct a potentially fatal plan to flee the island. Survival may seem impossible, but Alenna is determined to achieve it anyway

OUTLINE:
What eighteen year old Mac Thorne doesn’t know will probably kill her.

In exactly eight months, five days, three hours and thirteen minutes, Mac has to choose what she’ll be for the rest of her life.

She has no choice but to pick. As a Changeling, it’s her birthright. To Mac, it’s a birthchore. Like going to school with humans, interacting with humans, and pretending to be human during the pesky daylight hours.

Once darkness descends, Mac can change into any supernatural form that exists — which makes her as happy as she can be. That is, until Winn Thomas, the biggest geek in her senior class figures out there’s more to what hides in the dark than most are willing to acknowledge.

So what do you guys think? Any of these sound interesting to you?

Books I would quit support group for (1)

Kristi from The Story Siren posts "Books To Pine For" inspired me to do something similar. Instead I'll call it "Books I'd quit support group for" because let's face it some of these books sound so much better and sometimes look so much better then sitting and staring at people in a group and listening to their problems when you could be home reading and enjoying that fictional world. :)
