I read Silver Shadows by Richelle Mead in one sitting last weekend. I do this a lot if I get a book I've been anticipating right before the weekend starts.

Yesterday, the book was called Pink and Say by Patricia Palacco. A small book with a big message.

I do that quite a lot unless the book is really bad. I'm always a bit impatient to know how it ends, which of course always explains my lack of sleep.

Andrew Fukuda's The Trap. I had to know whether Gene and Co would make it through, or if not whether they would be turned into vampires or maybe torn apart...

Latest Review: "The Mysterious Bakery On Rue De Paris" by Evie Gaughan

Post by steinhm »

A few days ago! It was the Mysterious Bakery on Rue De Paris by Evie Guaghan. I didn't LOVE the book but it was so strange and interesting I had to keep going. Once I learned one thing I needed to know the next and the next. It wasn't that long, but I started in the morning and finished by early afternoon.
