Rosiered23 gave to: Under the Dome by Stephen King read in August, 2010	My rating:
This was a really fun (and infuriating) read. The terror of living under the dome, of living under the people in charge, all of it. The trade I read came in at almost 1,100 pages, and I feel like I flew through it. Highly recommend for good, engrossi...more

Rosiered23 gave to: Child of My Heart by Alice McDermott	My rating:
Very quick read, with some really great characters and moments. Overall, not close to my favorite of hers, but glad I read it. I'd love to know the story behind it.

Rosiered23 gave to: The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson read in July, 2010	My rating:
A satisfying conclusion to the series (for now at least; there are rumors of a possible fourth book?). I don't want to spoil it, so I'm not going to address the plot except to say that what keeps me from giving each of these books five stars instead ...more

Rosiered23 gave to: Remember Me? by Sophie Kinsella read in July, 2010	My rating:
Super-quick read, about a woman involved in an accident who wakes up not remembering the last three years of her life. The book follows her as she tries to figure out why she became the person she is -- which is quite a different person from the one ...more

Wow, I really loved this. I put off reading it for ... well, since it came out, because I found "The Kite Runner" to be so sad and depressing (though still a good book) and I didn't want to go through that again. But I was wrong to have put this book...more

Rosiered23 gave to: The Bone Collector (Lincoln Rhyme, #1) by Jeffery Deaver (Goodreads Author) read in July, 2010	My rating:
Decent quick read with a nice twist ending (to me, at least; I've never seen the movie). A little too bogged down with technical details at times, but other than that the plot moved along nicely. Probably not going to go out of my way to hurry up and...more

Rosiered23 gave to: Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill read in June, 2010	My rating:
A sometimes really good ghost story, and a quick read. Personally had a little trouble caring for the main character; at times, he was just one big cliche of a rock star, and not in a good way. The ending was a little predictable, but there were a co...more
