Happy New Year 2012 Giveaway Hop!

Welcome to the Happy New Year 2012 Giveaway Hop!, which was organized by Kathy @ I'm a Reader, Not a Writer and Babs @ Babs Book Bistro.

So, to find the linky all you have to do is click the link for one of the above blogs.
The Cozy Reading Corner's prize for this hop will be a pdf file ebook of Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake!!!
Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna, #1) by Kendare Blake

Synopsis: Just your average boy-meets-girl, girl-kills-people story. . .

Cas Lowood has inherited an unusual vocation: He kills the dead.

So did his father before him, until his gruesome murder by a ghost he sought to kill. Now, armed with his father's mysterious and deadly athame, Cas travels the country with his kitchen-witch mother and their spirit-sniffing cat. Together they follow legends and local lore, trying to keep up with the murderous dead—keeping pesky things like the future and friends at bay.

When they arrive in a new town in search of a ghost the locals call Anna Dressed in Blood, Cas doesn't expect anything outside of the ordinary: move, hunt, kill. What he finds instead is a girl entangled in curses and rage, a ghost like he's never faced before. She still wears the dress she wore on the day of her brutal murder in 1958: once white, but now stained red and dripping blood. Since her death, Anna has killed any and every person who has dared to step into the deserted Victorian she used to call home. And she, for whatever reason, spares his life.

    This is a great giveaway! I've wanted to read this book for a long time but havn't been able to buy it! It'd be amazing to win this giveaway! Thanks for posting, and thanks for posting the reviews you do. I really enjoy them. My new year's resolution is to read 100 books, it's the same as 2011, but I only got 75 done in 2011 and in 2012 I will succeed in reading 100 books!

Book Blitz: Of Silver and Beasts by Trisha Wolfe (Excerpt + Giveaway)

Image
***Excerpt*** “What’s your rank, baby blue eyes?” the guy asks, pushing off his cot and stalking toward the prince. Everything in me screams to act, but I don’t want to declare alliances this early on. Not without understanding the dynamic of placements and bonds already formed among these people. But I’ll not let this hulk of a man harm the prince. I brace my heel against the wall, ready to push off and lunge. Prince Caben rises to his feet, slowly turning to face him. He straightens his spine, squaring his shoulders. “I don’t have one. And my name is Payne. Not ‘baby blue eyes’, meathead.” Big guy laughs, his husky voice bounces off the rock walls. “I’m Crew”—he beats his chest hard once, like a barbarian—“and I’ve won three fights. I’ll win the next two and be the one awarded the freedom ring.” He leans down toward Prince Caben, leveling their faces. “So don’t even think about you or your princess over there walking out of here. I’m ranked as a Colossal. The strongest Colossal in B
