It has been a long hot week here in Vienna and I haven't had much time to read. What I have managed to read though was great stuff. New releases and an ARC!!

I went to see my favourite Welsh band the 'Stereophonics' on Wednesday night (see photo) and it was a bloody great concert! I hope the guys come back again soon! Have a listen to the Stereophnics here!

So what is up in the world of books this week? Well last night there was an amazing online chat event over on author Jaquelyn Frank's site. Great authors and unique prizes! I just didn't manage to stay awake till the end. I did manage to make it along for Jeri Ready-Smith, Cynthia Eden and Lara Adrian. A huge thank you to everyone who was involved and to all the lovely people there who were so nice to me!

Authors C.T. Adams & Cathy Clamp made a huge announcement yesterday! Not only do they have the new book covers over on their myspace page but their future books (not The Sazi ones) will have the combined author name Cat Adams on them!!

Here is the cover of the first release with the new name. A stand-alone paranormal romance in February 2004, called MAGIC'S DESIGN.



If you have never read any of the Dark-Hunter series or are missing 'Seize the Night' then you are in luck! You can download this great Sherrilyn Kenyon e-book from here for free! I read this one ages ago but couldn't resist downloading a copy to pass on to friends!

Sites I am visiting lately are -

I love Vampire Wire so much that I find myself popping over throughout the week. Usually I only go through the blogs on Sunday but Marta Acosta always has the hottest news! So if you need more go see her!

Also I keep popping in to see what is happening over on Yankee Romance Reviews. They have some cool stuff there!

I am going to mention Hide-a-Book again because it is so cool! I think I have to order myself something...or drop big hints to my friends and family...my birthday is coming up!

Want to win a book? Well this one is up for grabs over on my friend Terra's Blog.

There is always alot of contests to enter on 'Win a Book'.

There is still time to enter the contest on Shaunie's Happy Place to win a copy of Atlantis Rising by Alyssa Day.
