NEW FEATURE: Book of the Week #1

Posted September 4, 2013 by Emma in Blog / 10 Comments

Inspired by my job as a Library Assistant, this feature is to showcase the best book that you either received or reserved from your library this week whilst also promoting your love and support to your local libraries. For more information about this meme, please click here.

Hi Everyone and welcome to my very first post of this feature Book of the Week. I would love for you to all join so I have left the linky widget at the end of the post. I got my hands on some pretty looking YA books this week but the aim of this feature to highlight one of them. So my pick for this week is:
Dangerous Girls by Abigail Haas.

It’s Spring Break of senior year. Anna, her boyfriend Tate, her best friend Elise, and a few other close friends are off to a debaucherous trip to Aruba that promises to be the time of their lives. But when Elise is found brutally murdered, Anna finds herself trapped in a country not her own, fighting against vile and contemptuous accusations.

As Anna sets out to find her friend’s killer; she discovers hard truths about her friendships, the slippery nature of truth, and the ache of young love.

As she awaits the judge’s decree, it becomes clear that everyone around her thinks she is not just guilty, but dangerous. When the truth comes out, it is more shocking than one could ever imagine…

From the moment I saw this is the bookshop I knew that this was a book I’m was going to enjoy. I don’t know if it was the cover and colours or the synopsis of this book but I really did call out. So instaed of buying it I saw it was coming to my library so I couldn’t help my hands grabbing it. I’m not usually one for Mystery Thrillers, but I just couldn’t resist.

So this is the what a Book of the Week feature post will look like! You don’t have to add the book description but that’s what I like to do to show my book. All you need is a picture of the library book of your choice and a little bit about why you chose it/what’s it about/or even if someone recommended it to you. I would love for you to all join so I have left the linky widget below…So link up your Book of the Week’s and I’ll hop over to you!

    Great new feature, if I read more I would definitely participate. As it is now, I think I read about one book a week so that would be my only choice for book of the week LOL. This one sounds great, and a lot of people seem to like it. I have to add it to Goodreads!

    Oh a really interesting feature šŸ™‚ I usually have too many books to read as it is so when I go to library I always pick something for my mum, but occasionally I pick something that catches my eye šŸ™‚ This one sounds really good and I hope to get to read it someday šŸ™‚
