Capote does an amazing job of piecing together this crime. Although he begins the book by introducing you to both the victims and most obviously the killers, you are still in suspense throughout the entire novel.
Read MoreOne of my friends warned me that this book is dark and fucked up, it’s messy and also “weirdly heart wrenching”. I have to agree. The entire time I was reading this book I kept thinking “OMG”, “what the hell am I reading?”, “this is so good!”. I couldn’t put it down and thus finished it in a couple hours.
Read MoreThis was a wonderful, quick little read that truly had me falling in love with reading all over again.
Read MoreAfter all that I had heard about this book, it sadly did not live up to my expectations.
I wanted to love it, and at times, I did love Gabriel García Márquez’s stylistic way of writing. But, honestly sometimes I felt a little…dumb? less intellectual?… when I was reading this book.
Read MoreSigh, I just don't think this is in the cards for me to enjoy Austen's books.
Read MoreI've loved almost every moment of this series and was so happy with the way this final book ended the storyline of these wonderful characters.
Read MoreI have to warn you, the characters are terrible, perfectly written and developed, but pretty much all of them are pretty horrendous people. The descriptions bring you into the turbulent emotions of these characters and I loved the way the descriptions of the landscape, rooms or weather truly set the mood of the storyline, adding to each scene and setting.
Read MoreI Am the Messenger caught me completely off guard. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it and how much it really moved me. It was such an authentic story that went straight to my heart, and made me examine how we treat strangers.
Read MoreI highly recommend the book, even to those that aren’t the biggest Sci-Fi fans as I feel it’s a great balance and very interesting story that doesn’t go completely out of the realm of possibility.
Read MoreOne of the things I enjoyed most about this book was that the fantasy world Neil Gaiman creates isn't a complete 180 from the world we live in.
Read MoreThis book had some extreme moments at times but being a woman who had just moved to a big city where none of my close friends actually lived besides my boyfriend and family, this author was telling my story too.
Read More"But love, I've come to understand, is more than three words mumbled before bedtime. Love is sustained by action, a pattern of devotion in the things we do for each other every day."
Read MoreI love how real this book is. It deals with a difficult subject matter and makes you feel like you are going through the ever changing emotions right along with the characters. But also, it's not the typical romance book.
Read MoreI completely understand now why so many people have read this book and why it's still talked about. Walls depicts such a harsh reality with such beautiful writing. I couldn't put this book down, and although it's a memoir, it read like a well-written novel.
Read More“[Everyone] should get a standing ovation at least once in their life because we all overcometh the world.”
Read MoreThis book is perfect, just like the movie. The right amount of comedy, cleverness, some love, and also adventure.
Read MoreI absolutely loved Naomi Novik's first book in this fantastical world, Uprooted and waited anxiously for this one. Although not the same characters as in Uprooted, Naomi was a way of writing these fantasy worlds and characters that is so magical and I definitely enjoyed this book almost as much as Uprooted.
Read MoreReader, I am in love with this book.
Read MoreThis concept of there being something else out there, that maybe all we've come to do is because someone else guided us or made it possible in the first place is such an intriguing concept but so scary at the same time.
Read MoreI almost always enjoy books on Greek mythology and this one definitely did the tales justice while also adding a unique spin and story line to keep things intriguing.
