Confuzzled Books
If you are wondering what kinds of books I review and events I host, this little section is the place to look.
Books I love to read: Children's, Young Adult, Paranormal and Fantasy books.
Books I like to read: General Fiction, Romances, Religious Fiction, Mysteries and Biographies.
So those are the genres of books I will generally review. If you send me a book outside of those areas, I'll consider it, but it may not fit my tastes. Reviews will take about 2 months to post; I try to post them around the time the book is released.
On giveaways: Sending me a signed book to give away on the site is a great way to get your book noticed. I do a "mystery book" giveaway about every 2 weeks, where I read the book and twitter about it without revealing its title, then reveal what I've been reading and give it away. The whole event takes a couple weeks, and I feature the giveaway book on my blog for most of that time.

A Clash of Kings (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 2)
This being the second book in The Ice & Fire Series, we are reunited with characters from the first book. Like the first book there is dark clouds hovering above the families fighting for the right of the iron throne. Now the book does pretty much cover everything that is in the series. There are little things here and there I thought should have been in the tv series that had been removed. I saw the t.v. series first so the books were not shocking story wise because. Some things I really wonder why they cut out of the t.v. series. Like for instance there is a comet in the sky that is suppose to be an omen predicting doom. I do not think this is even mentioned in the t.v. series and I kinda felt it needed more of the mystical.
Only I complain about is they are so damn long to read. I just finished the 2nd book in time for 3 season on HBO. So I have no idea what is coming. I had hope to read the 3rd book before the show came on again. That is not really important I guess. The books may be long but still worth it.
Amazing drama, and fantasy. If you have friends that read the books you will find everyone has their favorite chapters or characters to read about. The stories do tend to show the darker side of people... but it also shows how people still have hope and struggle to get normalcy back to their chaotic lives.
