I like books that are happy. I mean, there has to be some conflict and struggle, but I can't live without a happy ending. There's enough pain in the world without me wallowing in it when I read.

  • The Lost Symbol
    • Rated 3 stars

    Better than I thought it would be, and significantly less ignorant than Dan Brown often is. Still, pretty predictable and practically painful post-climax. It's like he has this vomitty need to explain "the world" according to DB, when in reality he doesn't know jack.

  • The Hunger Games
    • Rated 5 stars

    Absolutely excellent, except that I'm absolutely DYING for the sequel. It's driving me crazy.

  • Beauty : A Retelling of the Story of Beauty and the Beast
    • Rated 5 stars

    Beautifully written. The end was a little too much of an "easy solution," but the story was full of magic if not fully explained.

    This book would have been so much better if Bella had chosen Jacob.

  • River Secrets
    • Rated 3 stars

    River Secrets was not as good as any of Hale's other books! She was obviously not quite comfortable with a male narrator, and I think the story lost something in Razo's eyes. The climax was weak with rather low stakes and no impressive revelations. The mystery had little suspense and a completely unsurprising outcome.

  • Enna Burning
    • Rated 4 stars

    This wasn't as good as "The Goose Girl," but it was beautifully written and definitely enjoyable. The simple messages of friendship, loyalty, and forgiveness make this well worth a weekend read.

  • Evidence
    • Rated 3 stars

    Pretty empty as far as meaning goes, but it was a fun mystery with a fairly simple plot.

  • Queen of Babble
    • Rated 2 stars

    Why do authors ever think that I would enjoy even one or two pages about other people having sex? Gross. Otherwise it was cute. I probably won't read more of her books, and this is definitely not one I'd recommend. Ever. It's on my "take to the used bookstore" list.
