    Hey, Tess! Sorry for the delay in reply to your question re: "Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side". I'd say read it. It was cute, quick, and funny. It's a lot better than the other "Twilight"esque crap that's out right now.

    Love your new icon, my husband is a mega Bears fan! He is really confident that Cutler is going to take them all the way this year!

    I've read pretty much all her adult fiction--they're fun, but I tend to prefer her YA.

    okay, i SO recommend "the perks of being a wallflower" if you haven't read it yet. it's a SUPER easy read and grabs you with the first page. you'll read it in like 2 days. i did. i chose the book over a video game. it was THAT good.

    I finished the book today, and it does get better near the end. The second book took me forever to read too. Usually a book like that I would of finished in a week or two. I LOVE TRUE BLOOD. I was a Bill fan but I think I'm converting haha. I already half way through the third book (I didn't sleep last night or today lol) and I kept wanting something to happen between Eric and Sookie and it hasn't yet. Did you know that Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer are engaged?

    Start with The Princess Diaries and go on down the line. I think that series is the best one, and it's finished, so you can read straight through. Unlike say, the Buffy Season 8 graphic. Sigh. And after that, I actually think her younger kids' series, Allie Finkle, is next in line. I've read pretty much all of them, and they're all fun, but some have a little more depth than others (some are just fluff, but that's okay). :-)

    She ends up okay at the end. And Anderson presents it in such a way that I think you'll feel sympathy for the main character. The ending isn't tied up perfectly with a bow, but it's still positive, and I think believable.

    As for Robin McKinley... um... how can I pick just ONE?!? :) If I HAVE to, I guess either "Beauty" or "Rose Daughter." Actually, "Beauty" first - you'll want to read "Rose Daughter" second. :)

    Eh... Well, I liked the first one, but she kind of lost me after that. I think I would have enjoyed it more if Bray had just stuck to historical fiction, and not tried to mix in quite so much of the supernatural fantasy stuff. It didn't seem to mesh well.

    The weird part is that when I saw that picture, I thought "hey, that's me and Tess." I first imagined myself as the ice cream, but only because I look better in green than pink. But I'm more fond of cupcakes, so I'm cool with that.

    Yeah, I thought the beginning was slow, but I'm hoping she gets a little into the backstory in the next one, with the two coaches and such. I find them really interesting. And the relationship between Katniss and Peeta has so many complications...I can't wait for the next one. :-)
