This blog...
I have made this blog for the sole purpose of keeping track of the books I have read. Some day I will look back and say "WOW! I sure do read a lot!"
For those of you that come across this blog, I hope you find it useful. It may help you find your next book, get a new perspective on a book you've already read, or at the very least, provide a new way for you to waste a few minutes of your day.

Heroic Measures by Jill Ciment
To tell the truth I was not very fond of this book. I truly dislike the way it is written, almost in a god-like way, but not quite...very strange. Especially when it is coming from the dog's perspective. I feel like it should have been one or the other, but not both humans and the Dachshund. How does the author know the dog is in pain? Or how the dog feels while at the animal hospital? These questions kept popping up in my head as I read.
I also found that it was anti-climactic. It seems like the climax was about twenty pages in and from there it's slow decline. I could almost guess the end, but I finished it anyway. I think it is a cute story and it was worth reading because I have Dachshunds...but for everyone else, especially those who do not own pets; I cannot say they would like it. I am not sure who I would recommend it to.
