Kaniesha's Waiting on Wednesday #2: False Sight by Dan Krokos

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

Title: False Sight
Author: Dan Krokos
Series: False Memory #2
Release date: August 13, 2013

Synopsis: All Miranda wants is a normal life. She's determined to move past the horrible truth of her origin as a clone so she can enjoy time with her boyfriend, Peter, and the rest of her friends at school. But Miranda quickly learns that there's no such thing as normal - not for a girl who was raised to be a weapon. When one of her teammates turns rogue, it begins a war that puts the world in jeopardy. Now Miranda must follow her instincts - not her heart - in order to save everything she's fought so hard to keep. with the image of a terrible future seared into her mind, what will she have to sacrifice to protect the people she loves?



I read False Memory a couple of months ago and loved it. Krokos really knows how to write an action story where the pacing never really slows. It's constant running and moving around, trying to get things done. It's really realistic for the situations going on. I'm really looking forward to the release next month!

Kaniesha's Top Ten Tuesday #2: Top Ten Words/Topics That Will Make Her NOT Pick up a Book

Top Ten Tuesday is a book blog meme created and hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. This week's top ten tuesday is regarding the top ten words/topics that will make me not pick up a book.

My list and reasons are going to be quite short but I enjoy getting to the point of things. (Though in all honesty, I waited for other people to put up their TTTs for ideas. I didn't realize how many things I didn't like). (Or how much other people didn't like these things either).

Kaniesha's Waiting on Wednesday #1 - Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

Title: Crown of Midnight
Author: Sarah J. Maas
Series: Throne of Glass #2
Release date: August 27, 2013
Summary: An assassin’s loyalties are always in doubt.
But her heart never wavers.
After a year of hard labor in the Salt Mines of Endovier, eighteen-year-old assassin Celaena Sardothien has won the king's contest to become the new royal assassin. Yet Celaena is far from loyal to the crown – a secret she hides from even her most intimate confidantes.
Keeping up the deadly charade—while pretending to do the king's bidding—will test her in frightening new ways, especially when she's given a task that could jeopardize everything she's come to care for. And there are far more dangerous forces gathering on the horizon -- forces that threaten to destroy her entire world, and will surely force Celaena to make a choice.
Where do the assassin’s loyalties lie, and who is she most willing to fight for?

I know that I included Sarah Maas in my Top Ten Tuesday post so it seemed fitting to put her in my first Waiting on Wednesday!! Celaena is literally my favorite heroine ever so of course I'm looking forward to continuing along with her story.

Kaniesha's Top Ten Tuesday: Ten Authors Who Deserve More Recognition

Top Ten Tuesday is a book blog meme created and hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. This week's top ten tuesday is regarding ten authors who deserve more recognition.

To start this off, I'm incredibly biased. I'm also not well informed of the book world and whether or not my favorite authors get a lot of recognition. I do know that I don't see my favorite books/series/authors mentioned as often as others so I'll be posting based off that. Click on read more to see my list!

Welcome to Deux Lectrices

Welcome to Deux Lectrices, a book blog run by Kan and Heather.  We've decided to begin this blog because we're both very passionate about books and would love to share.  Both of us have been reviewing books on separate blogs, but we're actually posting here to not only voice our opinions and feelings about books, but to hopefully get better about reviews.

We both have a different style to our reviews and not everything you see us reading in our widgets will be reviewed.  Mostly books we feel strongly about either way about or would like to recommend will be reviewed.  We also hope, in time, to be able to host giveaways and take requests for reviews.  We will be participating in various theme posts found on other book blogs.

You can find what either of us are reading at any given time in the GoodReads widgets at the bottom of the page, along with our respective favorites shelves which will give you a feel for the types of books we like.  However not everything that shows up in our currently reading widget will get reviewed here.

Our reviews aren't meant to discourage you from reading or checking out a book and we will always provide a link to buy the books.  It should also be noted that the reviews posted here are our opinions only.  It is perfectly fine for you to disagree, but out of line to attack us.


We'd also like to state that we do not receive any money for our reviews.  We're doing this because we love talking about the books we read and our feelings on them.  If anything, our reviews should be seen as free promo for the authors and books that are being discussed here.  We also are not Amazon Affiliates, so if you click on and buy any of the books we've linked through Amazon we do not receive a portion of that sale.  We are really only doing this for the love of books.
