Top Spot October Picks!


What was your favorite read this month? What was your Top Spot?

Top Spot is a new monthly blog meme hosted by the Skype Sisters. Every month we will get together to share our favorite read from that month and we would love for you join us! This meme will take place over the last weekend of every month, giving us all a chance to gush over the great reads we've encountered and bring an awesome ending to the current month. The Top Spot book can be anything you've read, whether it's old or new, an ARC or a finished copy. All August reads counts!

I have two top spots this month for YA and Adult because I enjoyed this books and cant wait for more work from these amazing authors. 


Eve (Eve, #1)

By Anna Carey
Blurb: The year is 2032, sixteen years after a deadly virus—and the vaccine intended to protect against it—wiped out most of the earth’s population. The night before eighteen-year-old Eve’s graduation from her all-girls school she discovers what really happens to new graduates, and the horrifying fate that awaits her. Fleeing the only home she’s ever known, Eve sets off on a long, treacherous journey, searching for a place she can survive. Along the way she encounters Caleb, a rough, rebellious boy living in the wild. Separated from men her whole life, Eve has been taught to fear them, but Caleb slowly wins her trust...and her heart. He promises to protect her, but when soldiers begin hunting them, Eve must choose between true love and her life.

{Eve is one of my top picks because it was so different from all the dystopian novels I've read. It was scary realistic because their is no demon take over or zombies, its just a sickness that took over. But Anna Carey doesn't focus on what happened she focus' on the character and how they are trying to find themselves, where they belong and how to survive. I love Eve and Caleb and I can't wait to see where Carey takes them next in her future novel}



By Rachel Vincent
Blurb: Bound by blood, condemned by fate As a bloodtracker, Liv is extremely powerful. And in a world where power is a commodity that can get you killed, Liv's learnt to survive by her own rules. Rule number one? Trust no one. But when a friend's daughter goes missing, Liv is bound by a potent magical oath. She can't rest until the child is safe. And that means trusting her dangerous ex, Cam. A sinister prophecy tells that she and Cam will be the death of each other, yet Liv's tired of being a slave to destiny. She's ready to play the forces controlling her world at their own game. No matter what the cost.

{ I was a fan of Rachel Vincent from her Shifter series and was excited for her next adult series Blood Bound. I loved the unique take on a mafia type world with the ability to track people in different ways. The characters, plot and romance was fantastic and I love the world Vincent created.}
