Video: Weekly Update

It's Monday! What are you reading? is a weekly meme hosted by the Book Journey blog.



Books on my reading list this week:

Forbidden (The Books of Mortals)Forbidden (The Books of Mortals) by Ted Dekker and Tosca Lee (available September 2011)

A terrible truth has been revealed to one man: the entire human race has been drained of every emotion except one— fear. To bring life back to the world, Rom must embark on a journey that will end either in his own demise or a reawkening of humanity. But to bring love and passion back into existence will also threaten the powers of the world with the revolution and anarchy that had nearly destroyed them previously.
After happening upon a journal through strange circumstance, Rom's world is shattered. He learns that humanity long ago ceased to "live," that it exists today in a living death of emotions. In a terrible risk, Rom exposes himself to the vial of blood folded into the old leather of the journal. His change is fearful and fraught with mind-bending emotion. A once-pious observer of the Order's passionless statues, he is filled with uncontrollable impulses. He is filled with love.
He is undone, terrified, and alone in the desolate world. From Goodreads.com
Boyfriend from Hell by E. van Lowe (available September 2011)
Fifteen year-old Megan Barnett and her single mom, Suze, have a special relationship - they are friends, who do almost everything together.
The special bond takes a turn for the worse when Suze decided to start dating again. She hasn't had a man in her life since Megan's father left ten years ago.
Enter two mysterious young men, Megan's new classmate, sinfully attractive bad boy, Guy Matson; and the dangerously handsome art dealer, Armando. Before long Megan and Suze both wind up in steamy relationships. But neither of the handsome pair is quite what he seems. In fact, one of them is Satan, with his sights set on a new bride. Megan has precious little time to figure out how to stop him. If she doesn't, either Megan or Suze will literally going to Hell. From back cover.

    At first, I didn't think I had much for my Monday Review, but I stayed up way too last last night reading.
