Alfie the Sniffer Pup is a monthly feature here on A Reading Daydreamer where I spotlight exciting upcoming releases and book-ish news which my pup, Alfie has kindly 'sniffed' out for me! Sorry for my lack of posts! As you all know, the London Olympics is on and I've become addicted to watching the events... A few moths ago, I was all 'Meh, Olympics... Whatever' and now I'm practically shouting at the TV and cheering and acting like complete loony! I've also been on the joy that is Twitter, mainly gushing about Tom Daley and the men's synchro diving and gymnastics ^_^ But without further ado, here are some August releases for you to look forward to...

August seems like another fab month filled with some amazing releases! Pushing the Limits is one of the best books I've read this year and I hope you will all go out and get your hands on it - you won't regret it! Throne of Glass has managed to receive plenty of glowing reviews so I'm hoping I won't be disappointed :) Torn is in my TBR pile - a love story set against a war... The covers of Rift and Earth Girl immediately caught my eye too. Jennifer L. Armentrout and Brigid Kemmerer have taken the blogosphere by a storm and I'm eager to read their books to see what all the hype is about... and who can resist the guys on the cover of Spark?

Hey Beverley,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Sunny (Pink Lady 631) and you commented on my 20 followers spectacular post. I just wanted to say thank you for your lovely comment and say I love your blog!!!!!
PS. I want your dog!!! I love that breed. Why can't be mine
ReplyDeleteOLYMPICS!! The opening was AMAZING and I can't wait to see which country wins the most gold medals! And there are so many GREAT books coming out this month. So excited for all books :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this awesome post with us, Beverley! ♥
Your dog is so cute <3 ! All these books look great and might help me to find a new book to read as I am running out of ideas! I Love your blog and could you have a look at mine? www.justbeingmyselftoday.blogspot.co.uk
ReplyDeleteThere are some amazing releases this month! I can't wait to read most of them ^^
ReplyDeleteAlfie is so freaking adorable! I would never have even thought of using my dog for this kind of feature - you're so creative.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading Pushing the Limits now. It's good so far. :) I'll be reading Throne of Glass as soon as I finish all the prequel novellas. Losing Lila will come right afterward, I think.
I'm really excited for The Debutantes and The Lost Girl. Haven't seen a few of these titles. Thanks for this post! :D Also, the 'lympics! I cannot believe that you're watching it so closely! I didn't even watch the opening ceromony - more of a forgetting than a lack of wanting to. I just read about the drama between/with the Olympians.
