The Rosie Project

The Rosie Project - Graeme Simsion Adorable and nerdy. Win!

The Moon and More

The Moon and More - Sarah Dessen Fun, but not her best.

Eleanor & Park

Eleanor & Park - Rainbow Rowell

I had to stop THREE times while reading so that I could hug this book.

Siege and Storm

Siege and Storm - Awesome. I am waiting eagerly for the next one!

Witchlanders

Witchlanders - Lena Coakley This is really a 2.5...

Starling

Starling - Lesley Livingston Super fun! Hooray for Fenn.

The Blessed (Blessed - Trilogy)

The Blessed - Tonya Hurley Writing is good, just not my type of story.

Seraphina

Seraphina - It did take me a little while to get into it. But once I was in, I was all the way in. Great characters and a very cool world.

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry - Rachel Joyce Charming, melancholy, and sweet. I’m dubbing this book Bill Bryson meets Forest Gump.

Fifty Shades of Grey (Fifty Shades, #1)

Fifty Shades of Grey - E.L. James This is going to make for a very interesting bookclub meeting...

The Diviners

The Diviners - Libba Bray Oh Libba... I'm so glad you're back. The Diviners is fun, terrifying, and entertaining. Well formed characters and complicated plot twists abound. The story is mystical and dark with some classic Libba-humour. At first I was a bit thrown by the flapper-lingo, but it quickly grew on me. And now I'm totally jake and I'll be drinking some giggle water this weekend. Can't wait for the next one.

Anna Dressed in Blood

Anna Dressed in Blood - Kendare Blake Really friggin' scary. Also pretty friggin' fun.

Insurgent (Divergent Series #2)

Insurgent (Divergent Series #2) - Definitely a middle book... not as amazing as Divergent, but still lots of fun and I will wait not-so-patiently for the next. :)

The Art of Fielding

The Art of Fielding - Beautiful. Lovely. Funny and smart. I feel like the characters are my friends and I miss them already. I kind of want to give this book to everyone I know.

Web of Angels

Web of Angels - Lilian Nattel Well written with interesting characters. Difficult subject matter...

Black Heart (Curse Workers)

Black Heart - Holly Black Satisfying… like good pie.
