Holy shiz! Crewel was amazeballs!!!
Just finished Howl - Annalise Grey which I found very good. Now I am about to make a start on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - Stieg Larsson.
Just finished forth grave beneath my feet ,I am now reading Fated by Sarah Alderson. Has anyone else read this book? And what did you think ?
I am reading Vampire Academy and also In My Thoughts, in My Heart, in My Words which happens to be a poetry book that my husband's friend self-published. It is amazing..please check it out and review for him.
I finished reading
by Stef Penney this evening. Overall, I thought the novel was an interesting and mostly enjoyable read. There were some problems with it (not surprising in a debut novel), the plot became slow and tedious at times, there were too many characters - it was very hard to keep track of them all - and the author wrote all of her characters in the first person so sometimes it wasn't clear which character was doing the talking! I had to go back and re-read multiple chapters to figure out what was happening in the story, which was very annoying! The ending was very sudden. It came out of nowhere and it left too many storylines unresolved. I was left wondering WHERE is the rest of the story??? My full review is here: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
Next I'm going to start
by S.E. Hinton.
I finally started
last night. I put it off because I just wasn't ready for the tears. Everyone talks about how sad this book is.I loved Looking For Alaska, because it was really funny, and this book is even funnier--I suspect it's to make up for also being even sadder.
Reading
at last (I say 'at last', because it was given to me some 3 years ago; now I wonder why I didn't start it sooner!)

I told you!!!! I love this book!!!
Taking a little breather from my Mortal Instrument reading marathon so I'm gonna sink my teeth on
for the moment.
I'm reading The Art Forger by B.A. Shapiro.Great read especially if youlike the secrets of the Art World.
I'm reading The Orphan Factory by Lance and James Morcan. Pretty good read, about these orphans who're raised to be assassins, etc.
I just started reading "11/22/63" by Stephen King. What can I say? He's sometimes gonzo and goes off on tangents, but the man is a master.
Recently finished Killers Are My Meat by Stephen Marlowe. It's a vintage mystery (1957) in the vein of the Chandler-esque private eye with a bit of international intrigue thrown in. It's not as good as some of the greats of the genre, but it's a worthy successor in my book--a good solid mystery from a little-known vintage author. My review is here. And while you're there, enter to win an electronic copy of the book for yourself.
I am currently reading about 5 books. I am ill, so I hope to actually finish these books soon. I am reading:Night Sighs The Moon Dwellers I am America The Fault in Our Stars The Summoning
