Feature and Follow Friday - Featured Blogger!


Hey guys! Happy weekend! To the newcomers, welcome to my blog! As you can see, been soooo super busy- last post was last week's FF! Not to worry- I have some reviews and a massive STS coming your way(:

Feature and Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Alison at Alison Can Read and Rachel at Parajunkee. For the rules, head on over to their blogs. (I'll try to put the Linkup right here below but it never seems to work for me) This week I got to be their featured blogger! So happy and excited, and looking forward to meeting new people and discovering new blogs. The interview with me can be found at Parajunkee. My preferred method of following is GFC, but Bloglovin and Twitter are great too! 

Let's do this! This week's question is:

Craziest thing you'd be willing to do for an ARC you are dying to read (aka what would you doooo-ooo for that ARC you want? *think of the Klondike Bar music*) - Suggested by A Great Read

I think the answer to 'what wouldn't I do for an ARC I'm dying to read' would be shorter(; I draw the limit at jump off a plane and swim with sharks. I would bungee jump though!

Love,
Esty

Double Feature!





Taaaa daaaa!! Guess what guys?? (This shouldn't be too hard as it is blaring in your face) I'm the Feature and Follow Friday's featured blogger! I really enjoy taking part in this meme and visiting other blogs- isn't it a great way to see some new blogs and meet new bloggers? And with that I would like to thank the hosts Alison at Alison Can Read and Parajunkee for the spotlight and coming up with this fab feature to begin with! (and for putting up with my many questions) *cue round of applause* 

I also want to welcome all you newcomers! How are you? Look around, read, comment, send me suggestions (as you can see I'm pretty new) and just enjoy! Hope you like my blog and I'm happy to check out yours- just leave me the link and I'll follow back:)  

So this week's question is... 
Give us a sneak! What are you reading? Tell us about a fun or fail scene in your current read.

Well! I'm currently reading The Fellowship of the Ring (Lord of the Rings Part 1) by J.R.R Tolkien because I feel like, how can I call myself a reader if I haven't read these yet? I just started and so far so good. It begins with this amusing little scene in which the hobbits of Hobbiton and Bywater 'tongue-wag' at the local pub about Bilbo (about whom we read in The Hobbit), his adopted heir Frodo, scandals, riches, and standard small town gossip. It kinda reminds me of the first scene in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire where the residents of Little Hangleton buy each other drinks while thirstily try to get news out of the maid.  
What about you??

And before you scroll down to sign up and participate I also want to share the SECOND place I'm featured in this week- Around the World hosted by the lovely Emily at Falling for YA! There I talk a little about what it's like to be a book blogger in Israel- check it out! (It may not be up yet, so if not come back later:))

Hope you have a good weekend, and check back later this week for my thoughts and favorite quotes on The Lord of the Rings! (I don't know how I'll do it.. you can't really review a classic, can you?) 
Esty:)

I've been featured!

Taking It One Page at a Time



Hey everyone! Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend. The lovely Danica at Taking It One Page at a Time has featured me in her blogger spotlight this week! Needless to say I am thrilled. Danica has been incredibly sweet and helpful and I'm so glad she's doing this- I'm always looking to expand my audience, especially because I'm new:) You can visit her blog and read the interview HERE .
To those of you who found my blog through her post, welcome! I hope you like and follow my blog, it truly means a lot.
ANYWAY, I am now finishing rereading Clockwork Prince in preparation for Clockwork Princess which will be out in 4 DAYS. I'm going absolutely CRAZY. And the teasers?? THEY MAKE ME DIE. Like this one, for example (no worries *SPOILER FREE*)

AHHHHHH SOPHEON (or Gidephie?)! I'm so frickin excited! Now, I live overseas so my copy might get here late and  I WILL KILL YOU IF YOU SPOIL IT FOR ME. That is all on that.
Later this week I will start Soul Control by C.Elizabeth which was given to me for review through another darling, Angelica at The Paperback Princess. To come soon!
Well, that was a sort of random disconnected post. Whatever. Have a nice weekend/ spring break (I've got two weeks off- two words: THE BEACH) <3
