July Book #3

Book: Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr

Intriguing and interesting, but there should have been more plot. The only reason I was afraid of the fairies was because she kept telling me to be. They never really did anything scary.

July Book #2

Book: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling

I cried when Fred died, and when George lost an ear. I appreciated the way she didn't have to kill Harry, but I didn't like the epilogue.

She tried too hard to make it happily every after.

July Book #1

Book: Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

I'm still not sure. I don't hate it anymore, but I can't love it either.

I need to think about it and maybe read it again later.

June Book #3

Book: Austenland by Shannon Hale

Very cute and sweet. A nice take on "Pride and Prejudice" that I will probably read again!

June Book #1

Book: Hyperion by Dan Simmons

I hated this book. It took forever to get through, but it's required reading for Seton Hill [University's Writing Popular Fiction Program] so I had to!

May Book #5

Book: The Masque of the Black Tulip by Lauren Willig

The second book in the Pink Carnation books, it's a nice continuation of the theme. Unlike most sequels it focuses on different characters from the first.

Very good. Less smutty than the first one. I liked it!

May Book #4

Book: The Hopeless Romantic's Handbook by Gemma Townley

A cute, fast read that I really enjoyed. Brought to light the fact that I really AM a hopeless romantic!
