October Book #2

Book: Holes by Louis Sachar

Pretty much everyone has read this book, but I never had. I liked it.

October Book #1

Book: Off With Their Heads! by Maria Tatar

A book for school, but still very interesting. I liked it much better than [Jack] Zipes' books on fairy tales.

August Book #5

Book: The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo

Not as good as The Tale of Despereaux or Because of Winn-Dixie, but still very good.

Book: Love Walked In by Maria de los Santos

Very cute. Lots of allusions to Cary Grant and The Philadelphia Story.

Mom loved it.

August Book #3

Book: I Was Told There'd Be Cake by Sloane Crosley

A collection of essays that are overall pretty good, but not funny or witty enough to recommend. She also uses a lot of profanity when it's not really necessary.

August Book #2

Book: Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer

A nice way to end the Twilight series. It ended with a happily ever after, so that's always good.

August Book #1

Book: Gossamer by Lois Lowry

Heidi loaned me this book and I'm glad she did. It was a very cute story, a quick read with a wonderful message.

I liked it.
