Yesterday, I started, and finished "Sarah's Key" by Tatiana de Rosnay.

I would give it 10 stars out of 5. This was a fantastic read...I could not put it down.

Highly recommend!

I just finished Cincinnatus: The Secret Plot to Save America. It's a pretty strange book--all about fixing PGA Tournaments and it connects a secretive society of descendents of the Continental Army to a horrible plot to the paranormal --Coral Castle.

I'd give it 4 out of 5 stars. It is well worht the time and energ. Great read.

My last book was The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. I give it a 3/5. I'm a new leisure reader at 30, but I've been reading a wide array of different authors to see what I really enjoy.

The Road by Cormac Macarthy, as dark and as grim as they come. Not only does it document base human survival instincts perfectly but is also very moving and bittersweet. Excellent. 9 out of 10.

I just finished reading Under the Dome by Stephen King and I must say that I enjoyed it very much. It was a fun read, a bit sad and sometimes graphic at times. It was what one expects from a Stephen King book. If you don't like SK you won't like this book, but if you do like his style it is great.

Just finished Coma by Robin Cook last night. I give it a 4/5. A little slow to build up, but everything came together to finish with a bang. A fiction novel, but very possibly could happen if it hasn't already. Quick, but good read.

The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory 5/5

This book may have kick-started a new obsession with historical fiction.

All The Presidents Men by Bernstein & Woodward, very interesting, but very boring, but a good read if you are into Political Government.

I have actually never read that book in my life, nor 1984! Two literary classics and i never read them, but i would like to fix that as soon as my next book is finished. Do both books still hold up in 2010 i wonder?
