Wishlist Wednesday!

With Christmas a short 2 weeks away (16 days not that I'm counting or anything...) the next few Wishlist Wednesdays will feature books that are on my wishlist and may just end up on your wishlist.  A couple of these I wouldn't mind in digital, but there are a couple on this list that I want in physical copy so I can have them in my hot little hands! Let's see if you can guess which ones..

I recently finished this one, on loan from my local library.  HOLY HELL! I am absolutely in love with Stephen King's work and this has once again proven to be a stellar group of stories that I've absolutely fallen in love with. I will not read a single one of these stories after dark or before bed because well, I have enough trouble sleeping.  Twisted dreams inspired by Stephen King's stories, yeah, I'll pass. There was a reason he was not allowed to tell his children bedtime stories.  I highly recommend this anthology, and it is well worth the purchase price! 

Fourth book in The Lunar Chronicles, and I hate to say it I've not read Scarlet yet, and I need to before I even come close to adding this to my current list of books I own.  Either way, I have been looking forward to this book for ages.  To know that this series came out of a National Novel Writing Month work, absolutely blows my mind and continues to provide me with encouragement to actually continue to plug away at my own writing and maybe I'll be awesome like Marissa Meyer. 

This one, previously featured in Rogues edited by George R.R. Martin, and already on my read list has been published recently (last month) as it's own stand alone novella.  I have found that I am hit or miss with Gillian Flynn's work, mainly because I've been left feeling kinda weird after finishing the last two books I've read by her.  However, I actually really, really liked this particular story and would be please to own this one. 

This.  Book.  Makes.  Me.  Happy.  Seriously! The Gods of H.P. Lovecraft! GIVE ME NOW! This anthology releases in TWO DAYS! December 11, the twelve deities of the Lovecraftian mythos are set free in these pages!  

Cthulhu (Adam Nevill) – Yog-Sothoth (Martha Wells) – Azathoth (Laird Barron) – Nyarlathotep (Bentley Little) – Shub-Niggurath (David Liss) – Tsathoggua (Brett Talley) – The Mi-Go (Christopher Golden & James A. Moore) – Night-gaunts (Jonathan Maberry) – Elder Things (Joe Lansdale) – Great Race (Rachel Caine) – Yig (Douglas Wynne) – The Deep Ones (Seanan McGuire).  That line up, it just makes me very happy! Besides, who doesn't love a little Lovecraft with their holidays? 

WORDS.  I NEED TO FIND WORDS. This book, much like the Gods of H.P. Lovecraft, makes me SQUEE like a good little fangirl.  Guillermo Del Toro...*swoon* I'm seriously addicted to this man's work.  His movies.  I've got at least 2 books of his on my wish list, among other things.  Seriously, I will love the person for ever who gets me this book...like not even remotely joking! 

Wish List Wednesday!

Welcome to this week's Wish List Wednesday! Where I share with you some of the books that I desperately want to add to my shelves! Seriously, most of what you see will be stuff from when a couple weeks ago I was left completely attended in a Barnes & Nobles! So, with that said, this week it won't be books, but it will be some of the Funko Pops that I absolutely fell in love with and want to use to decorate my shelves! 

Love meh all of these! Really! The Captain Mal and Zoe are requirements simply because I am a Browncoat and absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Firefly!  I am deeply saddened that it is damn near impossible to get a 2nd season of Firefly - even though dear Wash did not survive *sadpanda* 

Wish List Wednesday!

Welcome to Wish List Wednesdays!!!

In the coming weeks I will be featuring a few books that I desperately want.  Well, not only books, because I have a slight obsession with Funko Pop figures (though I don't actually OWN any of them yet).  So, most of the pictures, and books and things I will be sharing were from a recent trip to Barnes & Nobles where I was left unsupervised. 

We all know how good an idea that is!  Well, at least I didn't have any money with me to use or it really would have been a bad idea since they still had their classics on sale for Buy 2 Get 1 Free and I absolutely love their classics. 

Either way!  Let's get on with the show! 

If you know me personally, you know I love to cook, bake, etc.  This cookbook got added to my list simply because of who is on the cover!  Pauley Perrette is by far one of my FAVORITE actresses and Abby is my absolute favorite character on NCIS! I've looked through this book and seriously want to try some of the recipes that are within its pages!  

Seriously, who doesn't need a good Taste of Home Cookbook! It's so pretty, and it makes me want to spend all day in the kitchen creating tasty, tasty things from within its pages! 

Seriously, if you are offended by gratuitous use of the word fuck, then you are definitely not going to go for Thug Kitchen.  However, if you like good food....you will LOVE Thug Kitchen.  I've been looking at this cookbook for a little while now and I follow the blog, I now want the cookbook!  Sharing a link to one of my fave recipes from this cookbook: Thug Kitchen: Breakfast Tamale

Bibliophile's Wish List: Hardcover Beauties

This week's bibliophile's wish list is focusing on upcoming hardback books that will be published within the next one to four months. These are books that I've been desperately wanting, and will ultimately make their way onto my bookshelves...even if I have to put off eating for a couple of days to save up for them.  Seriously. 

1.) Go Set A Watchman by Harper Lee

This book, I have always loved To Kill a Mockingbird and to find out that Harper Lee was going to have another book coming out after that epic classic.  I seriously squeed like a good little fangirl.  

I'd lost my copy of To Kill A Mockingbird so I am seriously in the market to replace it as soon as I can.  However, this precious little beauty right here, will ultimately either in hardback (I really hope) or paperback (I'll settle for this one too) will grace my shelves along with her first novel. 

Publish date: July 14, 2015

2.) The Bourbon Kings by J.R. Ward

Okay, I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward, and am officially caught up on that series...aside from I think one book.

This, however is a new series.  I've got almost all of the BDB on my Kindle.  This series, with that awesome cover...I want on my shelves. Seriously.  I know for a fact that this book will be filled with sexy men and deliciousness! I mean, what else is J.R. Ward known for? 


Publish Date: July 28, 2015

3.) The Drafter by Kim Harrison

I have been a fan of Kim Harrison's for ages.  I've read most of the Rachel Morgan/Hollows series, and absolutely fell in love with it.  That particular series ran the gamut of emotions and many of them made me quite sad, and quite happy all at the same time.

This, however, is a whole new series.  Ultimately, I will be getting some delicious swag from Kim Harrison from this book - a mock up of Peri's phone, which of course will be it's own blog post! I am looking forward to reading and falling in love with Peri's story.

Publish date: September 1, 2015

4.) The Bazaar of Bad Dreams by Stephen King

OMG! OMG! OMG! Okay, those that know me, know that I love a story that will scare the absolute crap out of me! Stephen King is literally the top of my list of authors that I do not read after dark/before bed...and he's got a new anthology coming out?

Seriously! Gimme! Like now! I want this book like yesterday.  If I can get it in hardback, that would be deliciously wonderful! I want all of this, and I'm looking forwards to the spine-tingling terrors that fill it!
