Random Reads (3)

Random Reads is a monthly meme hosted by I'm Loving Books.  The point of it is to read those books on your TBR pile that you probably would never get to otherwise. You know the ones that you put off again and again thinking I will read these soon when really you know that you will most likely NEVER get to them. Last month I achieved my Random Read; Specials by Scott Westerfield. Check out my review!

My Random Read this month is.......

Everneath By Brodi Ashton - Number 60 on my TBR list.

Last spring, Nikki Beckett vanished, sucked into an underworld known as the Everneath, where immortals Feed on the emotions of despairing humans. Now she's returned- to her old life, her family, her friends- before being banished back to the underworld... this time forever. She has six months before the Everneath comes to claim her, six months for good-byes she can't find the words for, six months to find redemption, if it exists. Nikki longs to spend these months reconnecting with her boyfriend, Jack, the one person she loves more than anything. But there's a problem: Cole, the smoldering immortal who first enticed her to the Everneath, has followed Nikki to the mortal world. And he'll do whatever it takes to bring her back- this time as his queen. As Nikki's time grows short and her relationships begin slipping from her grasp, she's forced to make the hardest decision of her life: find a way to cheat fate and remain on the Surface with Jack or return to the Everneath and become Cole's...

I think it looks really awesome and just look at that cover: WOW! I can't wait to read it.

Sadly I didn't get to read my Random Read - Divergent - last month because I couldn't get hold of it but I am going to try harder this month.

My Random Read this week is Specials by Scott Westerfield. I've been meaning to read this for ages and my library has it so I should be able to read it very soon! I don't know if you noticed but my TBR list has been highly reduced from 299 to 98. I did a bit of spring cleaning :)


Synopsis: "The Specials used to be a sinister rumor - frightening beautiful, dangerously strong, breathtakingly fast.  Now Tally's become one of them: a superamped fighting machine, engineered to keep Uglies down and Pretties stupid. The strength, the speed and the clarity of her new powers feel amazing... most of the time. One tiny corner of Tally's heart still remembers something different. When she's offered the chance to stamp out the rebels of the New Smoke, she is forced to make one last choice: carry out the mission, or listen to that faint yet persistent heartbeat telling her that something's wrong..."

Yes I know I said I was going to cut down on meme's but this one looked fun so I couldn't resist (I'm dropping Top Ten Tuesday just to let you know). Random Reads is a monthly meme hosted by I'm Loving Books.

So my Random read is #267 on my list; Divergent By Veronica Roth. It has only been on my TBR list for just over a month - since February 26th 2012 and I'm excited to start it, a friend of mine told me it was amazing so I had to add it to my list. 

Here's the synopsis:

"In a future Chicago, 16-year-old Beatrice Prior must choose among five predetermined factions to define her identity for the rest of her life, a decision made more difficult when she discovers that she is an anomaly who does not fit into any one group, and that the society she lives in is not perfect after all."
