December Book #2

Book: In the Woods by Tana French

Read for school. Loved it until about page 250. Heavy-handed foreshadowing and an incredibly unsatisfying ending.

December Book #1

Book: Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami

Read for book club. Liked it at first. Inevitably sucked.

[Ironically enough I cannot recall every being in a book club. Ever.]

Book: Wild Magic by Cat Weatherill

Good. Interesting. The ending was a bit random though.

November Book #1

Book: American Gods by Neil Gaiman

Interesting premise and well-written, but filled with profanity and blatant sex scenes. I wouldn't feel comfortable recommending it to anyone.

October Book #3

Book: Bound by Donna Jo Napoli

An Asian Cinderella story. Unpredictable and well-written as all Napoli's books are.
