Decisions, Decisions...

I'm thrilled to say that Monday is over and I managed to survive it. Trust me you don't even want to know! The good news is we're one day closer to Friday!

To start off with, today I would like to bring to your attention an awesome new blog started by six bloggers at various stages of their writing journey. Operation Awesome is brought to you by Lindsay (a.k.a Isabella), Amparo Ortiz, Kristal Shaff, Katrina L. Lantz, Kelly Andrews and Angela Townsend. These ladies are full of wicked talent which is certain to equal a must see new blog! To start things off, on September 1st...and I quote "The awesome will explode with a bang." So be sure to visit these lovely ladies for something certain to be...well awesome!

Now for the big book releases of the week! I'm absolutely over the moon over about the release of Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare and Paranormalcy by Kiersten White. What's my dilemma you ask? Which to read first...

This one...



Or this one???


So what about all of you? When faced with two wonderfully awesome books how do you decide? And if these books are on your wish list, which one will you tackle first?
Have a great day everyone!

Hmm. Well these two aren't on my list of *wants* but when choosing between two I let my 3yo pick which shell allow me to "sit" with for a short amount of time:/

When faced with two and it comes right down to it, I usually know which one I want to read first; or my mood decides it. I'm sure they're both good!

It is so super hard to know what to tackle first!!! I received two novels in the mail yesterday and had to go by page # to determine what to read first. I went the shorter of the two, or I do the alphabet game, where the first letter that comes first wins!!!

Seems silly?? I think not... it helps you realize which one you really want to read, or if you're that confused!

Checking out Operation Awesome now!

Good luck deciding!!

I'm kind of like Jen, if I need to pick out of two, I read the shorter one first so I can get to the second one sooner ;)

Lindsay said...

Arghhh, Renae, you know I can't take making this decision. Lol. I'm going with Paranormalcy though...or Clockwork Angel...no sticking with the first choice. :)

Hugs for mentioning Operation Awesome too. Thank you. :)

When forced to choose, I do the totally shallow and pick the cover I like best.

I have something for you at my blog so stop by when you get a chance:)

Ah--Ranae, HOW was I not following your blog???? Major #Shannonfail

So sorry about that. But I've fixed the problem now, so yay! And thanks for pointing out Operation Awesome. I'll definitely have to check it out.

And, I must say, I'm partial to Paranormalcy--but only because I'm going to Kiersten's launch party tonight. SO excited!!!!

I've read Paranormalcy and it's fantastic. I need to get my hands on Clockwork Angel though. So uh, I don't know? Good luck deciding?

Janet Johnson said...

I've got a pile of 5 to choose between right now. Luckily, Mockingjay is an easy first choice. :)

Good luck with your decision!
