I'm sorry we've been rather quiet around here lately! Katie and I have been really busy lately. So here's what I'm up to this Sunday. I'm currently. . .
Reading The Circle by Dave Eggers. It's about a company in the future that has a monopoly on pretty everything and they also have access to everyone's information.
Writing a research paper about psychoneuroimmunology. I'm not sure how well it is going to go since there isn't a lot of different information on it, but we'll see!
Listening to Phineas and Ferb. I prefer Disney in the background of my daily tasks haha.
Thinking about places to get pointe shoes. We ran into a friend of mine at lunch and she really needs new shoes. She isn't sure where she can get them on a Sunday, though.
Smelling nothing really. We haven't cooked anything today so it pretty much just smells normal haha.
Wishing I could go back to sleep. I was up until 1 on Friday, had a long rehearsal yesterday, and they had a hard time sleeping yesterday. The funny part is I was falling asleep watching Dr. Who, but when I actually got up and went to bed I just couldn't sleep.
Hoping it warms up! I'm rather tired of the bs weather!
Loving having a day off.
Wanting scalloped potatoes. I helped make some on Friday, but I don't want to have to heat them up haha.

and now for the giveaway. . . .

Published by: Clean Teen Publishing
Young Adult Horror - Romance
When seventeen-year-old Dharma Moore moves to Bayou country so her scam artist mother can work as a Paranormal Investigator, she discovers that more than ghosts haunt the abandoned plantation they now call home.
Centuries ago, a voodoo curse was placed on the swamp waters surrounding the old plantation by a murdered slave. This terrible curse ensnares Dharma with its deadly effects. To save herself, she must face the terror of the haunted waters, find the dead woman's skull, and convince the slave's soul to release her from its torments. When Dharma discovers an ancient secret that links her to the property—a secret kept from her by her own family—she realizes that the curse is more personal to her than she ever imagined.
To survive, Dharma must accept the help of the locals, and put her trust in the handsome gardener, Wolf Bodine—who is the only one crazy enough to come near the plantation. With his help, Dharma must learn to embrace the truth and accept that magic is not only real… but that it can be very, very deadly!

When his dying grandfather gives him a dragon pendant, thirteen-year-old Angus learns of a legacy that will take him across an ocean to the island of Iona and thrust him into a heritage he did not know he had.

To save her, Angus must undergo a perilous journey of destiny and power to battle an evil Dacian knight and those who serve him.
With only his family shield and the advice of a wizened vampire hunter to protect him, Angus must navigate dangerous terrain and dark enemies, in a land where the past and the present mingle, and sleeping kings wake.
