Melissa Walker is the author for this Thursday's Author Tales! She is the author of the Violet Series, which includes: Violet on the Runway, Violet by Design and Violet in Private. Violet in Private will be released on August 5, 2008! I love this series and if you haven't read it yet, I recommend that you do!
Melissa had an different idea for her Author Tales appearance. Instead of doing a regular blog or interview, Melissa has done a Vlog! I hope you like it, I think it is really cool! And don't forget to sign up for the Monthly Contest by leaving a comment! Tonight July 31st at midnight is the deadline!!

Thanks to the Story Siren for having me! It was a hot and sweaty late July Day in Brooklyn, and I had to drink and iced coffee and hit the bookstore (tough life, I know). Here's what I bought! Love, Melissa

Last time I went to the bookstore was embarrassing. I try to stay away, but it's so tempting. I bought about 30 books. BUT it was at a Half Priced bookstore, so that's 50% better. Like buying 15 books! Haha.

Melissa, I think doing a Vlog was an awesome idea. I love when authors do those, it lets me see another side of them I usually don't. I like to hear the voices behind the writings I suppose you can say.

Anyway, great vlog! I love the vlog idea.
I just read and bought DEATH BY BIKINI. Loved it. :)
And yes, like you I have a lot of catching up to do with the Twilight series.
I've been waiting to Death by Binkini but seeing the cool cut outs makes me want it even more!
I love Melissa Walker's books too!! ^.^

Seriously, thanks for having me, Story Siren. This is tons of fun.
I'm still very fascinated by your bookcase, I want it!
The last time I went to the bookstore, I bought quite a few books...
Exit Here by Jason Myers
She's So Money by Cherry Cheva
Impulse by Ellen Hopkins
The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman
Perfect You by Elizabeth Scott
The Host by Stephenie Meyer (even though I had just finished reading the library's copy a couple days before... I loved it that much!)
And tomorrow I'm going to the bookstore again, of course for the Breaking Dawn release party :D
i just bought a book today, and it's sad b/c i have so much to read still but i can't help it! anyway, it was umm...Spirit by J.D. hightman or something? that might be a little off, but i have an awful memory.
And of course i'm getting Breaking Dawn tomorrow at Midnight! I'm sooo super stoked!!!
