It's that time again!  Giveaway Hop Time!

This Giveaway runs
March 17th - 20th

I do hope you are having a wonderful time in hopping through all the blogs participating in the Giveaway Hop.

You are currently at stop 130.

This month I have two books I'm giving away!  Yes TWO!  One is a YA read, and the other is an Adult book.  Of course Adults could very easily enjoy the YA read too. :)

The Giveaways Are:
Young Adult:

Goodreads Synopsis:
Daniel's father has gotten himself killed and left another mess for Daniel to clean up. To save his world from destruction, he must fight off his father's killers while discovering a way to save his world. Time is running out, and Daniel must choose to either walk in his father's footsteps or to reinvent himself into the one to save his world.

This sounds like a fun adventurous read.  I have a copy here to read and review, and an extra copy to give away.


Adult:

I wanted something with a Celtic feel to Giveaway over St. Patricks Day.  So I came up with this book, as it has a great Celtic feel to it.
Goodreads Synopsis:
Some people have the Sight. Genevieve Scelan has the Scent.


They call her "Hound," and with her unique supernatural sense Evie can track nearly anything—lost keys, vanished family heirlooms . . . even missing people. And though she knows to stay out of the magical undercurrent that runs beneath Boston's historic streets, a midnight phone call from a long-vanished lover will destroy the careful boundaries she has drawn. Now, to pay a years-old debt, Evie must venture into the shadowy world that lies between myth and reality, where she will find betrayal, conspiracies, and revelations that will shatter all she believes about herself and the city she claims as home.

When the Hunt is on, the Hound must run . . .

If you are curious about Spiral Hunt, I do have a review up for that one.  I know many are hoping to get around all the wonderful blogs to visit, but if you have time and would like you can check out the review HERE.  I've read the first two books in this series and enjoyed them.  And I have book three here on the shelf eying me up, waiting to be read.
