Hickory Dickory Dock was all right, and Elephants Can Remember is a 'cute' Hercule Poirot. Wow, its cool that I've found someone who likes agatha christie as much as I do. The great thing is the books are never tiresome, and are fun for every person!

I think there must be someone else who has a blog. If I had one, I would share it. :D There are some awesome book blogs out there though.

✽Laurenj426✽ (purplepandy) Hi! I'm Lauren! I'm from Ohio!
Some of my favorite books are The Immortal Rules, Divergent, and the Lux series. Right now I'm reading Clockwork Angel, but unlike most, it's not really catching my attention. Is it just me, or is Tessa really annoying?

Thanks! I am looking forward to The Host too, but I have a serious issue with the casting, it just seems wrong to me. But I guess that happens with every film, I am hoping to be pleasantly surprised when I see it.
