Review Time! Yes, you didn't read that wrong. I'm actually pumping out something today that isn't a blog tour post! I'm going to rub two brain cells together and finally WRITE THIS REVIEW. Because of Low is the second book in the Sea Breeze series by Abbi Glines. However something nifty about these books is that they can be read out of order since they're technically companion novels not a series (I can vouch since I read these out of order). You can purchase a copy of Because of Low from  The Book Depository  | Booktopia  |  Fishpond  | Bookworld . Thanks to Simon and Schuster for the review copy! (Goodreads)  Set in the steamy coastal Alabama town of Sea Breeze, an interconnected group of older teens hook up, break up ...and much, much more. Marcus Hardy had hoped to enjoy a year away at college while he put the summer he'd rather forget behind him. But instead, he's jerked right back his home town of Sea Breeze due to a family crisis. The only bright spo...

Hey guys! Sorry for the lack of content on the blog lately (i.e. this whole year) but honestly I literally just study and do assignments 24/7 (only a slight exaggeration). However today to spice things up a little (i.e. actually post something). I have a Q and A with Cristin Terrill, author of 2013 YA debut ALL OUR YESTERDAYS. Super excited to read this one so I'm so happy to be part of this blog tour! (You guys might have noticed I'm slightly late with this blog tour post! There was problems with the file and then I left for Sydney so unfortunately I haven't managed to get it up til now!) Interview with Cristin Terrill 1) Describe All Our Yesterdays in Three Words. Time + love + complications. 2) How did you come up with the plot for All Our Yesterdays? (it's such a unique and interesting concept I WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING) The initial kernel of the idea for ALL OUR YESTERDAYS came from this one night when I was having trouble sleeping. I got up at about three or four i...

Hey guys! As part of Ellie Marney Blog Tour for her latest YA novel, Every Breath (Allen and Unwin), she's stopping over at Badass Bookie for a quick Q and A today. Interview with Ellie Marney  Quickies - Early Bird or Night Owl? I used to be a night owl, but in the last few years I’ve had to reprogram myself – nights were doing me in, and since my youngest son started sleeping well in the mornings, I’m an early bird.  Five am is pretty damn early. Chocolate or Lollies? Ooh, dark chocolate please. Coffee or Tea? Tea – by the gallon.  STRONG tea, like stand-your-spoon-in-it strong, with condensed milk. Dog-Ear or Bookmark? How embarrassing…dog-ear  *blushes* Twitter or Facebook? Twitter (eep, all my FB friends will kill me now) Song That's Currently Playing (out loud or in your head)? Riptide  by Vance Joy – we are ALL singing it.  It’s almost getting annoying. Book that should be turned into a movie? The Name of the Star  by Maureen...
