In the beginning they were a group of nine. Nine aliens who left their home planet of Lorien when it fell under attack by the evil Mogadorian. Nine aliens who scattered on Earth. Nine aliens who look like ordinary teenagers living ordinary lives, but who have extraordinary, paranormal skills. Nine aliens who might be sittingContinue reading “I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore”

Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 24
Day 24: A book you wish more people would’ve read I have no idea where I found this book, or what even made me want to read it as it’s not what I’m usually drawn to, but Sky Burial: An Epic Love Story of Tibet by Xinran is an absolutely breathtaking book. It’s written beautifully,Continue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 24”
Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 23
Day 23: A book you’ve been wanting to read for a long time but still haven’t I Am Number Four has been on my ‘to-read’ shelf for an embarassingly long time—since before the movie came out, even. But then I broke down and watched the movie, and felt as if the ending was ruined, soContinue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 23”

Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 22
Day 22: A book that makes you cry I have never cried like I cried reading Firefly Lane (ironic that I used this as the book that makes me happy too…). This is definitely one of my favorite books, and introduced me to Kristin Hannah who is now one of my favorite authors. I readContinue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 22”
Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 21
Day 21: The first novel you remember reading I’m pretty positive that this was not the first novel I read, but I do remember loving the Junie B. Jones series in my young reader days. I remember getting up to #13 or so before moving on to more sophisticated series, such as the Magic TreeContinue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 21”
Magic Study by Maria V. Snyder
So, I started and finished Magic Study in one night. That alone says SO much about how I feel about the book. There aren’t many books that I get so into that I finish them in one sitting, and I really wasn’t planning on doing it with this book but I fell so very muchContinue reading “Magic Study by Maria V. Snyder”
Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 20
Day Twenty: Favorite romance book So, I’m not a huge romance fan. I can probably count on one hand how many I’ve read in my entire life, actually. But! That doesn’t mean that every once in awhile I don’t get sucked in. The Note by Teresa Mummert did just that, drew me in like aContinue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 20”
Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 19
Day Nineteen: Favorite book turned into a movie Though the movie wasn’t really based on the book, as the book is laid out in a self-help format, I loved He’s Just Not That Into You. The book was like my field guide in college—if a boy didn’t text or call me, I assumed He Wasn’tContinue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 19”
Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 18
Day Eighteen: A book that disappointed you I started the Breathe series (twosome?) by Sarah Crossan back in April and devoured the first book, so I immediately started the second, Resist, thinking it would be just as good. I was so wrong. The second book seemed rushed and all over the place, like Crossan wasContinue reading “Thirty Day Book Challenge: Day 18”
