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.

Beautiful Redemption by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
I read this way too fast! I cannot believe the series is now over, I should have hidden this one so that I could still have something to read. I was impressed by the ending, it is was not the perfect happily ever after that I always seem to want deep down. Which worked out perfectly for this series, I really loved the ending!
I will say that my only complaint was that all of the bad guys seemed to die off way too easily. I was expecting a bigger showdown of good versus evil, Light defeating Dark and all that. This book was a lot shorter than the others too. I can't decided whether or not it would have benefited from a bigger fight, but I cannot help comparing it to the taunting scene between Harry and Voldemort...I guess that is just one of my scenes of all time!!

Beautiful Chaos by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
I am truly loving this series. I have been laughing out loud, giggling and even crying thanks to this book! I was wavering a little at the end of the last book and the beginning of this one. It felt like it was dragging its' heels a little. However, once it picked up it was too fast for me...I wanted it to last longer! I guess that is how life goes.
I think my favorite relationship is Link and Ridley, they always make me laugh. And then there is Amma and Uncle Macon, when the two of them are together it is so funny how they bicker! I really enjoyed Link's mom and the rest of the town's reaction to the end of the world....and then ending, ooh the ending! I am buying the next book right now!!

Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout
While waiting for Beautiful Chaos to be ready at the library I needed something that would be quick and entertaining. This series was just that...it was the perfect subway read! I am obviously very drawn to supernatural books, especially YA supernatural romances...so I found the similarities between this series and others I have read to be more pronounced that usual. Which is strange since this one does not have vampires or werewolves. Weird, right?!
I will say that I found a the main character's hobby with blogging about her reading to be brilliant! Of course, I am happy I am not that intense about it...but it was a cute commonality that I appreciated.

Beautiful Darkness by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl
I am really enjoying this series. It has a lot of potential to become awesome. I wonder how the author will continue to develop the characters. I am particularly interested in Ridley's character, I think she is one of my favorites so far. I will also say that I love Amma and The Sisters, they have such fun mannerism and ways of speaking. I cannot help but laugh most of the time when they are in the scene.
Now I need to wait for the next book to come from the library....I guess I need some true crack candy reading in the meantime!!
