44 The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Title:The Ocean at the End of the Lane
Author: Neil Gaiman
My Area of Interest:Starting to love this author!
Finished 10/20/14 -LOVED IT!  It may not be a "kids" book, but it works as one.  I love how it starts out with him as an adult, then goes back for the magic, and comes full circle with him leaving as an adult. Loved it.

42 - Coraline

Title:Coraline
Author: Neil Gaiman
My Area of Interest: Checked it out for J, and couldn't help but read it.
Finished 10/06/14 -  LOVED it, and so did J.  Makes me want to read more of Neil Gaiman!

27 - The Host

Title: The Host
Author: Stephenie Meyer
My Area of Interest:I never really got into the Twilight books, but I did like the movies, just haven't seen the last one yet.  I had heard this was good, and since I wanted to see the movie, I just had to read the book first.  That and she is an LDS author, I always like to give those a shot when I can.

Finished 03/22/14 - A LOT better than I thought it would be.  This book turned out to be really good a humans vs aliens in a new light.  Goodreads.com has it has the first of a series, not really sure if it is going to be a series or not, I could see it going into one, but I also think it ended on the best note.

23 - Son (The Giver Quartet #4)

Title: Son (The Giver Quartet #4)
Author: Lois Lowry
My Area of Interest: Wanted to finish "The Giver" series.Finished 03/15/14 - SPOILER - this one happens at the same time as book one, yet finished up book 3.  Weird way to wrap around for the story, but it works.  This book follows the birth mother of the baby Gabe in the first book.  It's rather nice how everyone is together in the end, weird, but it works.  It makes sense how they can make The Giver into a movie, if they use this last book as well.

22 - Allegiant (Divergent #3)

Title: Allegiant (Divergent #3)

Author: Veronica Roth
My Area of Interest: Series I'm loving and a new movie coming soon.
Finished 03/13/14 -Good series, mad about this book tho.  I did not like the way it ended.  It ties things up, makes sense of things, but the end got me... I just didn't want it to end that way.

3 - Insurgent (Divergent #2)

Title: Insurgent (Divergent #2)
Author: Veronica Roth
My Area of Interest:Just about everyone kept talking about these books, and how much I would like them if I loved the Hunger Games ... so, gave it a shot.Finished 01/25/14- Loving this series more than Hunger Games.  Too bad the library has the 3rd on order and I'm 4th in line for it.

2 - Divergent (Divergent #1)

Title:Divergent (Divergent #1)

Author: Veronica Roth
My Area of Interest:Just about everyone kept talking about these books, and how much I would like them if I loved the Hunger Games ... so, gave it a shot.
Finished 01/16/14 - I think I like this better than the Hunger Games so far.  The first is really good, and I can't wait to dive into the second, problem is the third is being ordered by the library and I'm 4th in line for it.  The way I craved and devoured the , I'm afraid it'll kill me not to get my hands on book 3 in the next few days.
Hunger Games

37 - Oh My Goth

Title: Oh My Goth
Author: Gena Showalter
My Area of Interest: Teen... looked good
Finished 03/25/08 - Really fast read. I just flew thru the pages. It was a little weird, as the main people were stuck in a VR game deal, but not really too far fetched, and it didn't make it to sifiy either. It was really pretty good.

11 - The Time Traveler's Wife

Title: The Time Traveler's Wife
Author: Audrey Neffenegger
My Area of Interest: Got this as an RABCK from Kel.
Finished 01/15/08 - OMG I LOVE This book!!!! This now belongs on my top 5. I love the way it was written, the idea of the time travel, and how all the pieces fit.
