28 - I Hate It When Exercise Is the Answer: A Fitness Program for the Soul


Title: I Hate It When Exercise Is the Answer: A Fitness Program for the Soul
Author: Emily Watts
My Area of Interest: Title looked good... ok and cover too. lol
Finished 09/29/09 - First "mormon" book I've ever read. I really enjoyed it. It was a very fast read, and I know I would have finished it a lot sooner had the ups man delivered it before 6ish. I passed this on to mom, and she started reading it before I even left her house. I will more than likely end up passing this around to some of my friends in church as well.

Author: Katie Maxwell
My Area of Interest: Teen, one of my fav. authors
Finished 09/22/09 - Loved this one.. then again I have yet to find a book by Katie either teen or paranormal I don't just love. Really cute story! It was cute how the English would say one thing and she would think another being American.. like they said she was pissed (English drunk) and she thought they were saying she was upset. I have the next in this series.. now to just find it in my massive bookshelves. ;)

17 - The Help


Title: The Help
Author: Kathryn Stockett
My Area of Interest: Mom's neighboor Mrs. Peggy had me read it, wasn't too into it at first. She told me her mom had a black lady working for her, but she was very adamit that they were really good to her help. She didn't want me to think everyone was bad to their help. She let me know that a lot of people were really good to their help.
Finished 08/28/09 - I loved this book. I read it in 4 nights. I had a really hard time putting the book down. I loved every page. The story was wonderful. I loved how the black ladies parts were writen. The first few pages took a bit to really get, just took a little to get into the writing style.. but LOVED it! I found myself laughing out loud in several parts, and LOVED the "terrible awful" that Minny did. I would recomend this to everyone it was just so damn good! It would even make a really good movie.. tho I know the movie wouldn't be as good as the book.. it would still be damn good.

16 - Jennifer Murdley's Toad (Magic Shop)


Title: Jennifer Murdley's Toad (Magic Shop)Author: Bruce Coville
My Area of Interest: Looked good. I got it in a swap or a bookbox or something, can't remember, but it looked like a really cute series, and i wanted to give it a go.
Finished 08/19/09 - Really good. This looks like it'll be a really good series. I really like that you don't exactly have to read it in order as this was kinda a stand alone. I would like to read more of the series. Normaly it bugs me to read a series out of order, but this it really didn't matter and that's cool.

11 - Playing with Fire


Title: Playing with Fire (Silver Dragons, Book 1)

Author: Katie MacAlister

My Area of Interest: Fav. author, and loved the Aishling series.. so I wanted to give this a go, as I love all her paranormal stuff!

Finished 06/02/09 - oh really good!!! I'm so glad Aishling is in this one as well.. helps with the Ash fix, and I get to become addicted to someone new as well. ;) I really like how the new series is intermixed with the Ash one. I was a bit worried it wouldn't quite be like it is. I'm just loving how it is just like a continuation of the Ash series sorta... It's kinda like it started with Ash, then when the Ash series was over, she picked back up the series with another May and the Silver Dragons. Love, love, LOVE how she did that!
