Books I’m Reading + March Golden Snitch Giveaway

Since this month’s Golden Snitch giveaway is inspired by books, I wanted to share with all of you 3 books that are currently on my radar. First is a book from my friend and sorority sister (yay!), Karma Patrol

This is her debut novel and even if she wasn’t the author, I’d still really want to read this because it sounds AWESOME. In this novel there’s love, murder, and most importantly, karma. The main character, Jade, is a karmic account enforcer – she makes sure to keep her area in karmic balance. Unfortunately, right as she’s about to get a promotion, a killer goes on a rampage upsetting the karmic balance and potentially killing Jade’s promotion – and possibly even her.

I seriously cannot wait to get my hands on a copy of this as it’s got “late night reading at 2am because I can’t put it down” written all over it.

Next up is this awesome book, The Fangirl Life: A Guide to All the Feels and Learning How to Deal by Kathleen Smith. I’ll be doing an actual review of this book soon here on the blog, but so far, I LOVE it! It’s a quick, easy, and fun read and something any geek girl should pick up.

Finally, I’m loving this fabulous book from Gala Darling, Radical Self-Love: A Guide to Loving Yourself and Living Your Dreams. Although I can hide it rather well in person, I suffer a lot of self-doubt and self-loathing. I spend far too much time worrying about what others think of me and feeling like I’m not good enough. This book is helping me to deal with this and to learn the art of self-love (because it really is an art that takes practice and patience).

What are you reading this month?

Now to the good part, THE GIVEAWAY!

What’s better than snuggling up with a good book? Winning a geeky prize box inspired by your love of reading, of course! It’s time for March’s Golden Snitch Geeky Giveaway and I’ve teamed up with Kimi and her other sponsors to pool some goodies together so that one lucky winner can walk away with a prize box valued at $200!

But before I get into the prizes that await you, won’t you take a few minutes and get to know the sponsors?

 

I’d Like to Introduce You To…

This month, Kimi asked us a horrible question. Shame on her for this… because the question was difficult and not fair to ask of fellow book lovers! Ha!

 
KIMI | Kimi Who?
I love dystopian society based books and that’s why I could probably read the Divergent series again and again. I fell in love with it when the book first came out – long before it was a thing. It’s really stuck with me. I greatly enjoyed he character development, twists and turns. It seems like every time I re-read the books, I find something new.

 
MICHELLE | Geeked Out Girl
I would have to say Star Wars. With the new movies forthcoming, there will be a lot of new canon material to keep me going for a long time.

 
LAURA | Con Couture
We just saw the Goosebumps movie so I am going to say the original Goosebumps books by R.L. Stine. We still have a bunch of them and wish we had the time to go back and read them all as adults. Not only are they entertaining, but they bring back so many wonderful memories of our childhoods when we thought Goosebumps was the bees knees!

 
CHRISTINA | Cali Darling
I’d honestly have to say the Twilight Saga. I watched the first movie and then bought all the books. I read all the books in almost a week and enjoyed it so much.

 
JENN | The Diary of a Dreamer
Probably Harry Potter. It’s my favorite series to read and I try to re-read it every 1-2 years

 
HEATHER | The Nerdy Fox
The Old Kingdom books by Garth Nix. Sabriel has been my all time favorite book for so long. I think they’re what really got me back into reading when I was younger. They I have the audio books, variant covers of the books, I’ve read it so many times that I could probably copy it down from memory. I love them so much.

 
ANGIE | My So-Called Chaos
Well that would certainly suck… LOL maybe Harry Potter? At least you would continually be entertained, and hopefully she writes some more so it’ll be longer. lol

 
LIANA | Liana Kangas Art
That’s a pretty tough question, but right now I’m pretty obsessed with nerd autobiographies, I’ve been re-reading Nerd Do Well by Simon Pegg, and just finished You’re Never Weird on the Internet (Almost) by Felicia Day (totally relatable!) Because of that I finally picked up The Nerdist Way by Chris Hardwick… I know it’s not a series but I just couldn’t help myself. (But if I had to pick, it’d be Harry Potter…)

 
DANIELLE | From Girlie to Nerdy
The Harry Potter series because it’s full of all of my favorite things – magic, love, friendship, adventure, danger…it’s basically my absolute favorite series and I have no problem reading it over and over again.

 
JESSICA D. | Two Married Geeks
If I could only read one book series for the rest of my life, it would have to be Harry Potter. I can read that series over and over and it never gets old.

 
JESSICA P. | The Nifty Nerd
This is quite the unfair question for a book lover…If I could only read one book series for the rest of my life, I’d probably have to choose Lord of the Rings. Not only is it my biggest fandom, but the lore of Middle Earth is so vast & rich; I wouldn’t mind getting lost/stuck there for the rest of my life.

 
MER | Queering Through Life
It would have to be any of Tamora Pierce‘s works based in Tortall. I’ve always felt I was born in the wrong century, and while her books are based in a fictional world, it takes me to a place that makes sense in my head. Sure, there was no technology in those times, but people really worked for what they had. They appreciated what they had. Everything was built and made by hand rather than machine. It was a more simple time. And hey, she always has female main characters which really makes the series amazing and absolutely enthralling. It plays to my whimsical fantasies of the possibly realistic supernatural while also maintaining to be placed in an understandable history. I would have no problem reading about Tortall until the end of my days.

 
ASHLEY | Hello Nature
Harry Potter! There are SO many reasons why, but one of the biggest reasons? It’s actually something I connected with my Grandma over. She’s a huge Harry Potter fan and the fact that we got to go with her to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter a few years ago just makes these books seem even more special.

 
NICHOLE | Cuppa Geek
Laurell K Hamilton. The Anita Blake series. One of the first supernatural book series I fell in love with.
