Blood and Chocolate
Annette Curtis Klause
Delacorte Books for Young Readers, 2007
Engaging Werewolf Fiction
+ Twilight, The Host...and now Blood and Chocolate
I agree very much with E.R.'s review of this book- it is a wonderful story with a very engaging plot. I disagree with it being banned, especially when in comparison to today's television programming, but I'll leave it at that.
If you don't mind a book containing what I believe is on par with ...

The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening and The Struggle (Vampire Diaries)
L. J. Smith
HarperTeen, 2007
Welcome To Vampires
+ pretty good
+ Twilight still #1 but this is good
I will never understand how come this series didn't catch on like wild fire. Like how the Twilight series is. This series, in my opinion, far surpasses the Twilight series. With this said, and my high and mighty opinion stated. ^_- I'll review.
The writing for this book (series) is superb. ...

The Sweet Far Thing (The Gemma Doyle Trilogy)
Libba Bray
Delacorte Books for Young Readers, 2007
For The Girls Who Want To Know It All
+ A Changing World
+ The end
I loved all of Libba Bray's books in the Gemma Doyle Trilogy. This one is my true favorite by far. It was long, and to some reviewers that was bad but for me it was good, as it means more pages for me to read! Yay! Anyway, it did drag at parts and I did skip over describing the realms paragraphs ...

Under the Tuscan Sun
Frances Mayes
Broadway, 1997
Under the Tuscan Sun
ISBN 0767900383 - As a fan of lists, I'm always curious about books that make bestseller lists. I rarely read them, but I'm always curious. This was the case with Under the Tuscan Sun until a rather beat-up, unsellable copy fell into my hands. My curiosity, but little else, has been satisfied.

Fire Study (Study, Book 3)
Maria V. Snyder
Mira, 2008
I'm a satified reader
+ The Compulsive Reader's Reviews
+ Good author
It's strange to see so many mixed reviews. I'm sadden to know that this is the ending of the series. I hadn't even realized it was a trilogy, yet I hope Snyder might consider to continue this world at least from another character's perspective. The whole world layout is absolutely fascinating ...
