Back Bay Books, 2001
The place where the youth novel was born
+ Will stick with you
Because this is one of the most heavily reviewed books on Amazon, I will not at this late date attempt to do a comprehensive review. I'll merely focus on one reason this is such an important book and then comment on one odd yet persistent misreading of the novel.
First, this is the first novel ...

The Tenth Circle: A Novel
Jodi Picoult
Washington Square Press, 2006
Not my favorite **SPOILER ALERT**
I was really excited about reading this novel and was slightly disappointed by it. I thought it was going to delve more into Trixie being a cutter and the problems being raped brought. It didn't. Picoult could have done so much with the plot but I felt like she didn't give it her all. As one ...

Blue Bloods

blue bloods
+ Very different Vampire Book
I am a little surprised that "Blue Bloods" only has an average of 3.5 stars because I loved this book. I read all types of vampire fiction, & "Blue Bloods" was one of the most unique takes on the matter of vampires I have read in awhile. At first, I thought that this book would just be some fluff ...

Wonderful love story!
+ ~*Worth Reading*~
I am a 37 year old married woman and I have to say, this was the best saga I've ever read (and I read, on average, a novel every two days). I was, as was mentioned by another reviewer, a little apprehensive about reading a "young adult" book, as I mostly stick to adult; however, I could not put ...
