I love to read, but i do tend to judge a book by it's cover. I go through periods of being an avid reader, and not reading at all. I mostly read books in the Young Adult sections, but I have read some scifi/fantasy novels...mostly Star Wars. I do try to read a book through to completion but i also tend to drop it if the story doesn't hold my... more »

    Ok, I loved this book! Normally the fastest i read a book would be maybe five days...i read this one in two. It's hard to explain what i really loved about it so much. Each of the characters were unique...despite some parts that seemed...twilightish, it was so much more than that. Violet was no Bella! She was definitely a character that i enjoyed...There were times that i wanted to say "No don't you see, that's not really what's going on" and despite her flawed moments, she still ended up being a stronger character than i'd though she would be. Again it was a wonderful book that i gobbled up much quicker than i thought i would and i highly recoomend it!!!

    I really enjoyed this book. I'm very excited for the next one. Pierce is a great character, and narrator. She has so much that has happened to her she has a bit of an 'oddness' about her that I really enjoyed. John is a great mystery to solve as the story goes on...the book does leave you hanging in some ways dying for more. I definitely recommend it!

    This was a very good book. It took me a while to read because I have been in school this semester and hadn't had as much time to devote to one sitting. However, I was able to knock out the last few chapters all at once. It is a very fast paced read and a wonderful story. The characters grow and change from hated to beloved. I definitely reccommend it!

    This is the first Sarah Dessen book that I have read, and it was definitely one I would recommend. Each Character is so different than the last. It was definitely a refreshing change for me, since I have mostly been reading books more similar to Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. Again great story, I could hardly put it down!

    This series of books by L.J. Smith was amazing. It is the first of her books that i have read. The characters are deep and I could hardly put it down. Don't be fooled by the fact that "Vampire" is mentioned...it is not your typical vampire series. I highly recommend it!

    Lovely book...a definite cliffhanger that leaves you wanting to know what happens next to Kelley and Sonny and the world of the Faeries. In the second book we go deeper with a few of the characters, and the plot definitely thickens. The relationships between all of the characters grown and change. I truly enjoyed it.

    From start to finish i could hardly put this book down. I started reading it the day i bought it and finished it in a week. It probably would have been sooner had I had more time. It was amazing, a little scary, and romantic. The characters held me to the story and the plot keep me begging for more. I only hope that this is not the end of the story of Renee and Dante. I loved it and I highly recommend it.

    I saw the movie of this book multiple times before i ever read the novel, but i have to say that i like them both about equally. There are a lot of things in the book that are not in the film but i think they made the book better for it. Many of the things i found that reading them drew a stronger emotion from me than the film had because of the wording. I would definitely recommend reading the book whether or not you've seen the film. If you have seen the film, read the book it's just as amazing if not better!

    This book took a while to really get going for me. The humor is what really kept me reading it. About halfway through, was when i couldn't put it down. It's a very good story with a lot of interesting fun characters. Kelley is definitely a "firecracker" of a girl with an amazing personality. As her relationship with Sonny grows it becomes sweeter and makes this a worthwhile read! I'm looking forward to reading the next book.

    There are no words to describe how much i enjoyed this book. I thought it was so sweet and gentle as opposed to some of the others i'd read. Sam's character was so emotional with his speach and Grace so logical that their relationship with each other just made me love the two of them more. I highly recommend this book!
