Welcome to the TBR Intervention Challenge!

I’m here! I’m still here! Just… … just give me a sec.
…
Whew.
Ok. I’m good now. Aaaaaaand I’m back! Where have I been? I’ve been traveling all over the midwest United States in the name of Christmas for the past week and a half. It’s been crazy. It’s been fun. There might have been a few… or a doz- en… too many cookies consumed. There might have been a slight obsession with Ticket to Ride that my family only enabled. There might have been an excessive increase to my already burgeoning TBR pile… that my family also enabled. Family can be dangerous.
Needless to say, blogging time became severely limited during my vacation, so I apologize for my absence from all my regularly scheduled memes. I am back and ready to participate.
1.) So I didn’t really have a TBR goal last week. But here’s what I read this past week:
Review of iDrakula can be found HERE.
Review of My Tattered Bonds can be found HERE.
2.) So this week, because of work obligations, I’m going to have to make one of my reviewing obligations my TBR challenge. This book has been on my virtual TBR though for about 3 months, I think?
Claire is struggling to overcome the murder of her childhood friend and secret crush, Daniel. Everyone else seems to be moving on with their lives, but she’s still trying to cope. The fact that she finds herself alone and drowning on her 16th birthday isn’t helping.
Neither is thinking she sees Daniel’s face in murky water as she mysteriously resurfaces. But something happened during those four and a half minutes that will make her realize it was not just her imagination.
As Claire and Daniel try to grasp a possible reconnection, other grudge-holding beings have plans of their own. Now, the two of them have to decide if their fleeting relationship is worth the possibility of Claire being trapped on the fringe forever.
Beautifully told, On the Fringe intertwines fresh ideas about devotion, revenge, and the consequences that come with life and death. [/box]
So what are reading this week?
I have had On the Fringe on my TBR too. I don’t have it for review. Best of luck.

Welcome back!
Well, holidays are always great. Specially if they come along with cookies and family 😉 So I’m super glad you enjoyed yours – and you even read some great books in the meanwhile!
On the fringe looks amazing. It might be because currently I’m hooked to the Fringe tv show but… anyway. I look forward to your opinion!
Happy reading!
Ron
Welcome back!
Hope you enjoy On the fringe, it’s in my list too!
Drakula looks really gooooood!!!!! I really want to read it!
Have a nice weekend!
The cover of On The Fringe is intriguing. I cannot tell if it will be hopeful or depressing? I can’t wait for your review!

Dani, I just added one more to your TBR list! A little sprinkle of RAK was added your way
Thank you so much Brianne! I’ve been looking forward to reading TOUCH for awhile now, esp. since it’s gotten such glowing reviews
This is certainly a welcome addition to the TBR stack and one I hopefully will be able to knock back off VERY soon. lol 😉
Well, the holidays did a number on us, didn’t they? But we can do this!
Hi Dani! hehe, looks like you had a great time with your family last CHristmas! I am glad to know that you had a beautiful holiday! We all deserve to have great time and it’s amazing to spend those times with family. Oh, and we missed you last TBRIC! =) I’m glad that you’re back and welcome welcome back to you!
Here and On the Fringe looks scary to me… Goodluck with it! Looks great though… I hope I can read those kinds of books.. I’m easily freaked out… you know how imaginations worked and it normally strikes everytime I read some scary (even not too scary) books! I’m a little chicken! hehe…
Happy new year Dani! =)
