The Wake of the Lorelei Lee: Being an Account of
Fans of the series won't be disappointed in this one. Jacky is such an amazing character; she feels so real that I expect her to pop out from the book any second now. The secondary characters are great …

Raised by Wolves
RAISED BY WOLVES is a first in a series. I liked the details the author added to the world pack life. How they live, how they think, their behavior-it was all well done and it shows that the author's …

Knightley Academy
KNIGHTLEY ACADEMY shares some similarities with HARRY POTTER (and the author herself has even said she was inspired by the series) so some readers may not like it. Those looking for a familiar series …
reviewed The Education of Bet. August 20, 2010
The Education of Bet
THE EDUCATION OF BET was a sweet, cute read. I liked that Bet wanted an education and would go to any lengths to get one. I had fun reading about Bet's quest to get an education. It was fun to read about …

WordPerfect Office X5 Home and Student
I've been using Microsoft Office for a long time now, but never liked it all that much. I decided to try WordPerfect and it was the best decision I made software-wise. It is easy to use and works with …

Anthropology of an American Girl: A Novel
ANTHROPOLOGY OF AN AMERICAN GIRL focuses on Eveline's experiences than the plot, which is why it is too long and it takes a while to get to the point. The author's writing flowed and was very beautiful. …

The Demon's Covenant (Demon's Lexicon)
Sarah Rees Brennan does it again! I re-read the first and flew through this one in the same night, finally falling asleep at 5 AM. But it was worth it.    I must admit that I was a …
reviewed Stolen. May 19, 2010
Stolen
Lucy Christopher bursts into the YA genre with STOLEN. Written as a letter from Gemma to her captor, Ty, STOLEN is very unique and original.     It was easy to connect to both Gemma …

Tell-All
After hearing so much about this author, I decided to jump on the bandwagon and check this one out.    I shouldn't have.    I get that we're a celebrity-obsessed …
reviewed Insatiable. May 19, 2010
Insatiable
In this vampire spoof, Meg Cabot writes a fun chick-lit book.     Yes, it is predictable and the attraction between Lucien and Meena doesn't make much sense, but the book is still …

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5
I'm not a professional graphic designer but I like to edit pictures and make designs for my blog.     This is such and easy to use program. I didn't have a hard time with Corel. The …

Sea Glass (Glass, Book 2)
If you loved the Study series then this one is kind of disappointing.     This second book is slightly better than the first but at the same time it's much worse.     Opal …
reviewed A Secret Affair. April 22, 2010
A Secret Affair
I just got into the romance genre a couple of months before and I've already read books with similar plot to this one. I don't mind if a book has a similar plot to another one as long as the characters, …

Radiant Shadows (Wicked Lovely)
Dark, full of secrets and romance, RADIANT SHADOWS will satisfy fans of the Wicked Lovely series. Melissa Marr is such a great writer; she sure does know how to keep her readers flipping the pages, scarfing …

Shift (The Shifters, Book 5)
This series just keeps getting better and better. I won't go too much into details because that might spoil the first five books. But um...    1. I like that Faythe is growing. The …
reviewed Jekel Loves Hyde. April 14, 2010
Jekel Loves Hyde
This is a modern re-telling of Jekell and Hyde so the experiments were a big part of the story. But the experiments never went into details and it didn't match the chemistry-smart characters. It was just …
reviewed Birthmarked. April 14, 2010
Birthmarked
BIRTHMARKED, a dystopian novel, benefited from a great storyteller. O'Brien has such a way with words that I just got caught up in the story. The world that O'Brien created was engaging, creative, and …
reviewed Succubi Like It Hot. March 17, 2010
Succubi Like It Hot
Hilarious, touching, and just plain fun, SUCCUBI LIKE IT HOT was a very great paranormal book.     I didn't read the first book but I didn't find this one confusing. The author does …
reviewed Before I Fall. March 12, 2010
Before I Fall
The book was well-written but because of the main narrator I almost didn't finish it. I had to put this book down many times. I disliked the main characters. They were just so shallow, bitchy, and annoying. …

The Iron King (Harlequin Teen)
Before you go "Oh no, not another faery book," please know that while it sounds similar to other faery books, it's very different. (The character's taken from Shakespeare's A Midsummer's Night Dream were …

Lead Me On
Jane is unlike any other romance heroine I've read about. Jane has a very bad past but she's changed. She doesn't make excuses for who she used to be, but she does try so hard to not be the same person …

The Next Best Thing
I personally have never lost a person close to me, but I still disliked the heroine.    It's been almost six years since she's lost her husband and she's still wallowing: she's still …

Wish
WISH was a cute novel.The author dealt with Olivia's grief over losing her twin sister really well. The question that the book asked, if you could wish for anything, what would you wish for? got me thinking.I …

Proof by Seduction
I'm not a big historical romance fan because today's slang is used even though it wasn't invented yet. But since I read lots of good things about this one, I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly …

Jungle Crossing
JUNGLE CROSSING was a very cute MG novel. While the MC is somewhat annoying at the beginning, she changes through the novel and she grew on me. She was spunky and I like spunky characters.     Kat …

The Seven Rays
The Seven Rays was a very weird book.    1. It was original, but every character was perfect (and I don't mean that in a good way). Sure, they had tragic pasts, but they were model-beautiful …

North of Beautiful
There's nothing I can say that will give this book justice, so I will just state what I loved in this book.     1. The writing. The writing just flowed smoothly (except for those small …

Hearts at Stake (Drake Chronicles, Book 1)
HEARTS AT STAKE is a chick-lit, fluff, candy read. There's nothing special about it and there's nothing memorable. It's just a book that provides a brief distraction from the real life.    The …
reviewed All Unquiet Things. December 28, 2009
All Unquiet Things
Lately it's rare to find such a remarkably well-written YA novel. With at the so-so written YA novels in shelves, ALL UNQUIET THINGS is sure to stand out.    The voices of the two …
reviewed Girl in the Arena. November 30, 2009
Girl in the Arena
GIRL IN THE ARENA was a good take on the Gladiator world. I liked THE HUNGER GAMES and since this book sounded similar to it, I ordered it from Vine.     GIRL IN THE ARENA had some …

Fallen
I really did try to finish this book but I couldn't. I chose this book from Amazon Vine because the summary pulled me in and it sounded different from all the vampire books currently in the market.    &nbs …
reviewed Hush, Hush. October 29, 2009
Hush, Hush
HUSH, HUSH was one of the most anticipated book of the year. It was very hyped up and received loads of 5 star reviews. Of course, that made me wary, since it really couldn't be as amazing as everyone …
reviewed Once a Witch. October 22, 2009
Once a Witch
ONCE A WITCH was a fun but predictable read. Each character had a magical power (or "Talent") that reminded me of the HEROES TV show. There were many resemblances that I could not ignore, but the author's …

Swoon
I tried to finish this book, I really did, but there were many things that kept me from reading further.    1. The characters: I just couldn't connect with them. They need the extra …

Girl Stays in the Picture (Girl Novel)
There was just something about this book that kept me reading until 3 AM. At around 420-something pages, it took me about three and a half hours to read. I just simply couldn't put it down.    I've …

The Demon's Lexicon
I should have known better than to read this book. Wanna know why? Because now I'm waiting anxiously for the sequel, The Demon's Covenant.    For me, the book did not start out slowly. …
