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.

The Vision by Jessica Sorensen


The third book of the series, there is apparently is a fourth book coming out in February.  I am not sure whether or not I will be reading it, I am working on expanding my selection of books to include works of greater works of literature.  I will however admit that I do wish to find out how the story ends.  That was one of the pulling factors that lead me to read all three of these books so quickly!

The Underworld by Jessica Sorensen


This is the second of The Fallen Star Series which I have been reading constantly for the last few days.  I barely have time to update my blog!  While this is no award winning writing, I did enjoy reading it.  I seem to enjoy YA fiction more than any one person probably should, but what can I say I am a sucker for such books!!

The Fallen Star by Jessica Sorensen


I got this book simply because I needed a book to read with Mr. Darcy, my new Nook Color (Thank you Grandmother Sir!!).  I did not have the patience to wait for the ones on hold through the library, so I go this book.  I then proceeded to finish it in two days!!

I will say this, it is definitely entertaining.  Not anything award winning, but fun in the same way the Rick Riordan's books were fun.  Quick and easy to read, relatively good plot with a good number of twists, and pretty good characters.  Worth picking up if you need a book and cannot find or decide on anything.

Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro


I have been hearing about this book for the longest time, everyone who told me about it always said I had to read it and then started becoming more and more cryptic about the actual story.  Of course I now understand why, it is so much better when you come in to the story knowing nothing about it.  I have heard good things about the movie too.

So instead of trying to give some kind of description and be annoyingly vague, all I will say is to read it.  I really enjoyed this book, extremely well written and with a very refreshing and twisted plot.  My only caution to you is that it is a bit sad, so keep that in mind when you start.  Enjoy!!
