Friday Finds, September 25

I generally stay away from books with post-apocalyptic themes. I’ve read The Road but didn’t really like it much but after reading The Forest of Hands & Teeth (must read!) earlier this month, it suddenly created an interest to read other books with the same theme. To read my review of The Forest of Hands & Teeth please click here.
This week, I found another post apocalyptic themed book titled Ariel by Steven R. Boyett from the Book Smugglers blog (I love their blog it’s just so cool). They are also running a contest to win two copies of the book ending on the 26th of September. The contest is open only in the US and Canada which sadly means I can’t enter the contest… which also means I’m off to the bookstore to get myself a copy this weekend! :)
To enter the contest, please visit the Book Smugglers.



Friday Finds is a weekly event hosted by Should Be Reading.

    I think I will check out Ariel. I see a lot about this book and the genre interests me. Thanks.

    Terima kasih for the links :)

    Hope you get a chance to give Ariel a read! It's not as good as TFoHT, but it's solid. If you want any other post-apocalyptic suggestions, I've got TONS. It's one of my favorite genres of fiction :)

    I also LoVeD The Forest of Hands and Teeth! Post apocalyptic fiction is one of my favorite genres though :-)

    Thanks for visiting and commenting at Holley's House! I am the Messenger isn't quite as literary as The Book Thief, but I did like it as much!
