I hope everyone is enjoying the dog days of summer. I know I am. It has been very hot (high 90’s, but I swear it feels like the 100s to me) and sunny here. ‘They’ have issued heat index warnings, recommending limiting outdoor exposure.

I am loving every minute of it, but am careful about how long I am in direct sunlight. My pool is very inviting, but floating is not an option at this time. Doesn’t really matter to me, because I spend a lot of my time underwater.

You see, I was a mermaid in another life, so water is second nature to me..

I have read some Colleen Hoover, even though it is not my usual genre, and am blown away by her amazing writing.

So, when I saw this on the Istyria Book Blog, I decided to give it a whirl.
Thanks Bieke and Colleen for the freebie.

THE POOL BOY’S BEATTITUDE by DJ Swykert

This is a new author for me and I love the cover. I have a special affinity to water.

DJ Swykert had requested a review and this seemed a bit different from my normal reads.

Thanks DJ for the opportunity to share.

I like something different to shake me once in a while.

I saw the intriguing cover and read on. What do you think?

There is so much I like about this book, I had to join the tour.

I will be reviewing and touring with A Death in Vegas with Premier Virtual Tours on  October 1, 2014. Thanks, guys, for the opportunity to share.

  1. It’s mighty hot! LOL I thought I was going to burst into flames yesterday!
    You’ll enjoy Isolation Sherry and I was tempted by A Death in Vegas. How cool is that cover?! Thought of you when I spotted it.
    Thanks for the tune. I’ll be humming it today at work.

    • The sun is so intense!! I love the Death in Vegas cover. You know my number, that’s for sure. lol A little song lifts the spirit. Enjoy!!

    • I won a couple of Colleen Hoover’s books awhile ago and have read one, Slammed. Straight up romance is not a genre I usually seek out, but her writing is so amazing that I would grab anything with her name on it. Thanks for stopping in, Catherine.

    • Thanks Esty. I am very drawn to covers and sometimes don’t even read the synopsis before I grab the book. LOL Thanks for stopping in and commenting. Happy reading.

    • Thanks, Red. I loved the music. I played it over and over as I was making the post. I too sang along with it, with a smile on my face. Thanks for stopping in.

  2. It’s been crazy hot here as well though we had a nice break from humidity until a few weeks ago. I didn’t realize how much I was enjoying not having to deal with it until it showed back up with a vengeance! Great books this week! Have a great week!

    • I won a couple of signed books by her on her blog a while back. I read Slammed and have Hopeless. Hope to read that soon. Her writing is amazing and I think you would enjoy it. Happy reading and have a great weekend.
