What can I say? I love to read. That's why I am here, right?

Along with reading, I love to belly dance. Belly dance is a passion of mine.

    If you could go to the past and be able to change it, would you? I found this to be an on-the-edge type of book. Though it did take me a while to read it, it was an easy read.

    I fell in love with Jake's character and most of all I fell in love with Sadie's character. I was surprised on how the past refused to change itself as Jake tried really hard to prevent JFK's assassination. I must say, it had me turning the pages pretty quickly.

    Such a great message for kids who have been bullied and yet still be able to conquer their fears. In this story, Patricia learns to read after many years thinking she was dumb and not capable of reading.

    First book in the trilogy and it was pretty fun. Made me become aware of graveyard work and kept me guessing who the killer was. I am actually looking forward to the other books in the series.

    This is the third book in The Black Dagger Brotherhood series. This book continues right off where the second one ended. Bella has been kidnapped by the lessers and Zsadist goes crazy trying to find her. He doesn't know why he can't get Bella out of his mind since he lives a dark life. He used to be a blood slave who still bears the scars of his horrible captivity. He feels no love or affection towards anybody until he meets Bella.

    Reading about Zsadist's past broke my heart and I kept rooting for Bella to quickly heal him.

    So far this series has not disappointed me and I am looking forward to reading all of the books.

    Not the best in the series but still interesting and very erotic.

  • I'm the Vampire, That's Why
    • Rated 3 stars

    This was a very easy and fun read and I really needed this kind of book to help me ease up with my hectic schedule. I enjoyed the humor that the book was filled, I thought Patrick (the 2,000 year old vampire) sounded yummy, and I liked that the main character was not the typical female heroine seen in vampire books. What I didn't like about the book was Jessica's constant worry on why she shouldn't be with Patrick. It became irritating and pretty much silly. But overall, the book was an enjoyable read.

    Quite enjoyed this Historical Fiction. Who would have thought that our 16th president knew how to kick butt?

    *slight spoiler*

    Rhage is a vampire who has gotten on the Scribe Virgin's bad side and is now cursed by her. Whenever he gets angry and loses control, he turns into a life destroying dragon. He fears that he is a danger to anyone who is closed by him. Mary is a survivor of cancer and soon learns that her deadly disease is back. She is not looking for love but trying to survive. Mary and Rhage soon meet and they come to realize how much they depend on each other.

    This is the second book in The Black Dagger Brotherhood and I enjoyed it tremendously. I wish I could compare it to the first book but for the life of me I cannot remember what Dark Lover was about (I even gave it 5 stars). Ward has a gift for story telling and kept me turning the pages. I would have given it a higher rating if it weren't for the fact that I was sickened that Rhage slept with a woman right before sleeping with Mary.

  • Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
    • Rated 4 stars

    16-year-old Jacob grew up with "fantasy" stories of peculiar children told by his grandfather, Abe. His grandpa claims that his stories of a little girl who floats, an invisible boy, and a girl who creates fire with her hands are true. Jacob doesn't believe in the stories until the tragic death of his grandfather. Soon, Jacob decides to find out where his grandfather is from and where all of his stories came from.

    Though the story was weird and dark, I did enjoyed it. I really liked how the vintage pictures were incorporated into the story and thought that the concept was quite unique. The book was a little confusing though and had me scratching my head trying to make sense of everything. In all, this was a good book.
