Alfred Lord Tennyson, Happy New Year 2018, Inspirational quotes

happy-new-year-movie-frozen-animated-gif

Hi Everyone! I hope you have all had a wonderful holiday season! I know right before Christmas I said I was going to be taking a few days off. Well, except for a couple of book reviews it’s turned in a longer vacation than I originally planned. I’m going to be taking off a few more days, but I promise I’ll be back in fighting form next week. I’ve been trying to keep up with everyone’s blogs, but if I missed anyone’s posts, please forgive me. 

happy-new-year-time-to-shine-animated-gif

In the meantime I wanted to wish all of you the Happiest of New Years. I know for many of us 2017 was a tough year, whether it was things going on in our personal lives, or natural disasters such as the devastating hurricanes, flooding, and wildfires that hit more than one country, terrorism attacks, or political and societal upheaval such as the one here in the U.S. as millions of Americans felt trapped and helpless in the first hellish year of the Trump presidency. But I for one will never give up hope regardless what obstacles I’m dealing with. So in that spirit I’m looking forward to 2018 and a brand new page. 

Happy-new-year-2016-clock

And with that I’m leaving you with my last quote for 2017 which happens to come from one of my favorite poets of Victorian England.

Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering,

‘It will be happier’.

~Alfred Lord Tennyson ~

To all of you I raise my glass. Be safe, be happy, and have fun this weekend!

This Mortal Coil (This Mortal Coil #1), by Emily Suvada ~ 4.5 Stars

Thanks to NetGalley and Simon Pulse for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Release Date: Available Now

432 Pages

Synopsis: Catarina Agatta is a hacker. She can cripple mainframes and crash through firewalls, but that’s not what makes her special. In Cat’s world, people are implanted with technology to recode their DNA, allowing them to change their bodies in any way they want. And Cat happens to be a gene-hacking genius.

That’s no surprise, since Cat’s father is Dr. Lachlan Agatta, a legendary geneticist who may be the last hope for defeating a plague that has brought humanity to the brink of extinction. But during the outbreak, Lachlan was kidnapped by a shadowy organization called Cartaxus, leaving Cat to survive the last two years on her own.

When a Cartaxus soldier, Cole, arrives with news that her father has been killed, Cat’s instincts tell her it’s just another Cartaxus lie. But Cole also brings a message: before Lachlan died, he managed to create a vaccine, and Cole needs Cat’s help to release it and save the human race.

Now Cat must decide who she can trust: The soldier with secrets of his own? The father who made her promise to hide from Cartaxus at all costs? In a world where nature itself can be rewritten, how much can she even trust herself?

Mortal Coil is an original, inventive, and highly entertaining beginning to a new YA dystopian series, that checks off all the right boxes.

I’ve read a ton of post-apocalyptic books where the plot is centered on some sort of deadly plague which has wiped out most of humanity, leaving zombie-like creatures, survivors desperately trying to save the world, and opportunistic villains who either caused the calamity to begin with, or who are now trying to exploit it. While this novel follows this formula, it also deviates into something different and refreshing. 

First, although this is science fiction, Emily Suvada makes the events that transpire believable. I think I’ve mentioned before that I do not have a scientific mind, so with all the DNA sequencing, gene hacking, computer coding and nano-technology that’s in this story, it would have been all too easy for someone like me to get lost. Instead, Suvada provides an understandable explanation for everything, and she accomplishes this without slowing the story down. 

What also adds to the authenticity are the characters. Each of them are well-rounded and came across as realistic individuals, which allowed me to become fully invested in them and the increasingly dangerous situations they found themselves in. There’s a semi love triangle that happens, but there’s so much action going on that I didn’t find it nearly as annoying as I usually do in YA books. 

There are also quite a few twists and turns, some of which I guessed, but there was one in particular that took me completely by surprise. These helped move the story along even more quickly and I wound up finishing this in two sittings.

This Mortal Coil is definitely one of my favorite science fiction reads of 2017. By the time I was halfway through the story I was already thinking of my dream cast if this is ever adapted for film or tv. I would caution though that it’s quite graphic. For example: people explode, hence the cover. Because of this I recommend the book for older teens and adults. With a kick-ass heroine and fantastic world-building, this is sure to have wide appeal. It’s the first book in a planned trilogy, so I can’t wait to see what the second book has in store!

Merry Christmas!

Believe ~ Josh Groban

17505977

Children sleeping

Snow is softly falling

Dreams are calling

Like bells in the distance 

~

We were dreamers

Not so long ago

But one by one

We all had to grow up

~

When it seems the magic slipped away

We find it all again on Christmas Day

~

Believe in what your heart is saying 

Hear the melody that’s playing

There’s no time to waste

There’s so much to celebrate

~

Believe in what you feel inside

And give your dreams the wings to fly

You have everything you need

If you just believe 

~

Trains move quickly 

To their journey’s end

Destinations

Are where we begin again 

~

Ships go sailing

Far across the sea

Trusting starlight 

To get where they need to be

~

When it seems that we have lost our way

We find ourselves again on Christmas Day

~

Believe in what your heart is saying 

Hear the melody that’s playing

There’s no time to waste

There’s so much to celebrate 

~

Believe in what you feel inside

And give your dreams the wings to fly

You have everything you need

If you just believe 

~

If you just believe 

If you just believe 

If you just believe

~

Just believe 

Just believe

Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Whimsical Wednesday

 

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled ‘till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.

Yep. A couple of weeks ago, much to my shock, By Hook Or By Book reached this milestone! My first reaction was something like this:

And once I picked myself up off the floor, I kept saying this:

giphy

Seriously though. I just can’t believe that there’s over 3,000 of you who find my “Little Blog That Could”, interesting enough to follow. It’s simply:

giphy (1)

I know I’ve said this before, but I want to tell you again how much all of you and blogging mean to me. When I first started this 3 1/2 years ago, I was at one of the lowest points of my life. Having had to leave my 26-year career as a children’s librarian because of poor health, just about destroyed me. The people I thought were my friends suddenly weren’t there, and I had lost all sense of purpose and direction. Surviving an abusive childhood had instilled a deep-rooted need to make a positive difference in the world and as a children’s librarian I had found that. Reading gave me so much pleasure when I was a child, what better job in the world could I find, than one that allowed me to introduce the magic of books to another generation?

giphy (2)

In July of 2014 I had never felt so lonely and isolated. Not even my lovely husband could snap me out of my funk. And then I stumbled across WordPress and my life changed again, only this time for the better. Once again I could share my love of books with other bibliophiles!

giphy (4)

When I first started blogging I figured I might gain a small group of followers and I was thrilled with the idea. But slowly By Hook Or By Book became something more. In addition to discussing book reviews, you all are gracious enough to read and comment on my posts about social issues and my um, rather passionate political rants.

I’ve made so many friends here and not just book fiends like myself. I’ve been introduced to movies that I’ve never seen by bloggers such as:

Jay and Sean @ https://assholeswatchingmovies.com

And there’s Pete over at

who in addition to being a supportive friend, hosts things like music and film challenges and writes some of the most amazing essays and short stories I’ve come across.

Bad Call, by Stephen Wallenfels ~ 4.0 Stars

Thanks to NetGalley and Disney-Hyperion for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Release Date: December 19th, 2017

320 Pages

Synopsis: It was supposed to be epic.

During a late-night poker game, tennis teammates Colin, Ceo, Grahame, and Rhody make a pact to go on a camping trip in Yosemite National Park. And poker vows can’t be broken.

So, the first sign that they should ditch the plan is when Rhody backs out. The next is when Ceo replaces him with Ellie, a girl Grahame and Colin have never even heard of. And then there’s the forest fire at their intended campsite. But instead of bailing, they decide to take the treacherous Snow Creek Falls Trail to the top of Yosemite Valley. From there, the bad decisions really pile up.

A freak storm is threatening snow, their Craigslist tent is a piece of junk, and Grahame is pretty sure there’s a bear on the prowl. On top of that, the guys have some serious baggage (and that’s not including the ridiculously heavy ax Grahame insisted on packing) and Ellie can’t figure out what their deal is.

And then one of them doesn’t make it back to the tent. Desperate to survive while piecing together what happened, the remaining hikers must decide who to trust in this riveting, witty, and truly unforgettable psychological thriller that reveals how one small mistake can have chilling consequences.

I love survivalist stories, so when I read the premise for Bad Call, I knew I had to try it, and for the most part I’m so happy I did. It’s a slow burner, but the steadily building suspense kept me glued to the pages and I wound up finishing this in one sitting.

I have to be honest and say at the beginning I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this. I had a difficult time buying into Ellie’s overcoming her misgivings and going off with a guy she barely knows and his two friends she’s never met. But the more I learned about her backstory, the more I could understand why this otherwise intelligent girl would throw caution to the wind. She and Colin wound up being my two favorite characters. 

The reader hears from all the characters except for Grahame, which was my only other issue with the story. By the end, I felt I had a firm grasp of who Ellie, Colin, and Ceo were, but Grahame, not so much. A big part of the suspense is the tension between the boys. They’re friends, yet both Colin and Grahame have valid reasons for disliking Ceo. I really felt Colin’s mixed feelings toward his friend, but with Grahame it’s more telling, not showing, so I wound up not connecting with him as much. 

The first 60% of the book deals with the rising tension and deterioration of the weather as the group gets further and further away from civilization. There are flashbacks detailing how the guys first met and what’s gone on between them at the private school they attend. The action kicks in during the latter part of the book and it had me feverishly turning the pages right up to the exciting conclusion.

Bad Call, is not your typical teen survivalist story. Except for Grahame, the characters are very complex and relatable. Although I knew from the premise and the cover that something horrible was going to take place involving an ax, when it did happen, I was still caught by surprise. I think this will be a fantastic read for high-schoolers and adult fans of YA fiction. I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone younger due to language, drug use, and a couple of sexually suggestive scenes. It’s an attention grabber right from the beginning and if you’re a fan of survivalist stories mixed with loads of tension, suspense, and a bit of mystery, I think you’ll enjoy this.

 

Book Chat: Authors Being Negative Towards Reviewers

I just have to share this eye-opening post from Kayla. Online bullying has become so prevalent, but when it’s on a book related like Goodreads, it seems even worse to me. Our own Dani from http://touchmyspinebookreviews.com was targeted by a troll yesterday, and was utterly devastated. Here, in a separate incident, Kayla brings to light an author who is doing the bullying, which also has me outraged and determined to never buy one of this woman’s books!

Graceling Accountant

Hi Ya’ll.

So I wanted to open up a discussion about a problem I am noticing more and more across various social platforms: some authors, generally not highly-publicized authors but no promises, have been attacking reviewers for bad reviews of their book.

Just a warning ahead of time, the screenshots are a little blurry but still readable, and if you’re not a fan of bad language this post might not be for you.

I hopped on Goodreads today ready to scroll through my feed and noticed a huge conversation surrounding a review of The Black Rose byEliana Bonaguro. The posts have since been deleted that the author made, but after reading a negative review on their book that someone had written the author decided it was a good idea to start attacking that reviewer in the comments on their review. A ghost account also started insulting the reviewer at…

Grown-Up Christmas List ~ Amy Grant 

Do you remember me?

I sat upon your knee.

I wrote to you with childhood fantasies.

Well I’m all grown up now,

But still need help somehow.

I’m not a child but my heart still can dream.

~

So here’s my lifelong wish,

My grown-up Christmas list,

Not for myself, but for a world in need:

~

No more lives torn apart,

That wars would never start,

And time would heal all hearts.

And everyone would have a friend,

And right would always win,

And love would never end.

This is my grown-up Christmas list.

~

As children we believed,

The grandest sight to see,

Was something lovely wrapped beneath the tree.

Well Heaven surely knows,

That packages and bows,

Can never heal a hurting human soul.

~

No more lives torn apart,

That wars would never start,

And time would heal all hearts.

And everyone would have a friend,

And right would always win,

And love would never end.

This is my grown-up Christmas list.

~

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?

Maybe in our blind belief can we ever find the truth.

~

No more lives torn apart,

That wars should never start,

And time would heal all hearts.

And everyone would have a friend,

And right would always win,

And love would never end.

This is my grown-up Christmas list.

This is my only lifelong wish,

This is my grown up Christmas list.

Songwriters: David Foster/Linda Thompson
