Books That Rock – Oh. My. Gods.
I want to tell you guys about one of my favorite YA books, Oh. My. Gods. By Tera Lynn Childs. This book is funny, super cute and all about the romance.
The thing about this book is, I didn’t even know it existed. No one recommended it to me, I’d never heard of the author… I just happened to be in my favorite half price book store and this cover caught my eye. I picked it up, shrugged and thought, “Huh, this looks like the kind of book I might like to read.” That’s it… I didn’t read the book jacket or check to see if there was a blurb from another author. I just took it home and fell head over heels in cyber-stalking love with not only the characters, but the author herself.
It’s one of those stories that I snuggled into my comfy chair with, and pretty much didn’t get up until I’d finished it. That’s saying something about the awesomeness of a story considering I have a four year old who needs me to get up and get her like everything in the whole world.
There’s a sequel, too–and you will definitely have to read that as well…
Now, if I can just convince the author to come out with a third in the series.
An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this
onto a friend whoo hhad been doing a littl homework oon this.

Those covers are totally adorable!
@Daisy Whitney, aren’t they AWESOME??? I have total cover lust for her books. Plus, the writing is good, too!
Don’t you love it when you spot a book like that, take a chance on it, and end up loving it? I did that recently with LANDING by Emma Donoghue, and author and a book I’d never heard of in my life. Totally different genre, but similar experience. Sometimes you really CAN judge a book by its cover.
