Books Read:

Forget You by Jennifer Echols - Really good read, however not quite as good as Going Too Far.  It didn’t have the same emotional punch.  But it was definitely enjoyable.  At times it was confusing, but I guess that’s what happens when the narrator has amnesia. :)

Stormbreaker (Alex Rider, Bk 1) by Anthony Horowitz – This was really fun.  It’s British, so of course I liked it!  But I did like the story too.  I’ll definitely continue with the series.

Rise of Renegade X by Chelsea Campbell – So much fun!  I liked this a lot.  I love superhero (and supervillain) movies, and this was just as good.  Damien was great – so sarcastic and funny.  I’d love to see more of Renegade X and the world he lives in.

Shakespeare’s Hamlet: The Manga Edition – This was pretty cool.  I’ve read Hamlet before, but it was cool to see it as manga.

Forgive My Fins by Tera Lynn Childs – I liked this a lot!  It was really cute.  At times it was a bit predictable, but the merworld was really fun and Lily was really endearing.
