In The Moment {2}

So early this day of doom I have been unable to slumber without fit.  As to why I am very unsure myself since I was up past a very late hour. 

However,  I decided to chase away my squirming with a bit of book.  Armed with my futuristic gadget, of which I'm in love with, I hope my sheets will not be bunched by my feet no longer.  How terrible to be knotted in ones bedsheets on the day of doom.  Which I see has not come at present.

Perhaps... for another's flimsy prediction the doom will appear.

The Mad Scientist will presently be found within the electronic pages of Gravedigger's Brawl by Abigail Roux.  As it is, I am unsure of what is to be found in this but I assure you I'm excited to find out. 

Begging said book to pull me out of my reading slump.  It's rather intolerable.

Reading from NetGalley through the Kindle app on the Samsung Note II. 

.....

If at any point you would like to share your current read I would love to hear about.  I'm always in the mood for something new or a bit odd due to uncanny curiosity, that has never once killed my poor cat. 

In The Moment {5}

The Mad Scientist started In The Moment so that I may share my bookish life on the go... plus I'm conputerless at the current moment.

Please do join in and share a link if you would like to do the same.

........

I have finished Gravedigger's Brawl and it was amazing!  If you are a ghost story lover then Gravedigger's Brawl is for you.  Review to come.

My next inky read is Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell.  Rainbow, I'm curious as to how life has faired with that name.

So far it is different, albeit, as always the Mad Scientist is almost always clueless about what the book is about.  I can only assume music due to the sharing of headphones on the cover.

Mad Scientist is reading this one via the Samsung Note II by way of Kindle Thanks to NetGalley!

In The Moment {4}

I am sadly without computer but I still want to share.  Join me on my mobile bookish journey through In the Moment.  In time posts as I read, find quotes, get mail and other what nots that the Mad Scientist deems worthy.

At this moment I am inclined to share a current quote.  The Mad Scientist is most enjoying my Current Kindle read from NetGalley, The Gravedigger's Brawl. 

In The Moment {3}

Mobile sharing on the go with one utterly Mad Scientist!

I did not intend to have another post so quickly.  Yet, a surprise arrival has me jumping to share what just made my cold Wisconsin night a bit more bearable from the inner warmth of joy.

Oh yes, joy can warm you right up.  But petting a beautiful new bookcover can do wonders for the soul.

Deepest thanks to PYR for loving me so.

...

Do jump in and share your bookish moment with me.

The Mad Scientist is currently in the middle of a most wonderful Steampunkery audiobook.   I have read this one but I do agree that the audio is just as scrumptious!

Concoction of a Small Review:

Does one pick up a book to be surprised?  Does one pick up a book to enter the world from another's point of view?  Does one pick up a book for a epic journey?

This book will keep you your toes.  What was I expecting?  Nothing of what I read!  

The writing was unique.  The beginning was a bit of foreshadowing... until what can be said, the point in Rebecca's life where she might of been slapped by life.  Many of us hit those rock bottom points and figure out that we are not living in the right way.  Prior to this she was living the alcoholics dream, not a situation any person should be in, especially for a boy. 

One good thing about contemporaries... I hope someone today can pull from them and apply lessons to their own lives.

Yet, throughout the book I found it hard to really be overly mad at Christian for pressuring her so much.  The author didn't build this boy to be unlikable   Which is probably a problem for some girls today.  

One can say that this is really not a fluffy book.  It takes you on one long emotional train through Rebecca's situations.  You feel for her and at one point I'm sure I yelled out loud at her.  Ok, several times.  The characters hook you in and the writing style keeps you there and the hard taboo issues makes you want to be there for them.

What I great book!  I highly recommend this one!
Albeit with a warning!

I lived, breathed, and died by paint. I loved when it got in my hair, down the front of my shirt, and under my fingernails, coloring each with a special hue all its own.

His rapid heartbeat showed on his sleeve when he dropped his keys and picked them up in two seconds flat. It was okay, really, that he’d kissed me.
