It was really good. Eclipse only made me want more of the story. In the mean time I will have to keep my thoughts away from that book and on some of Rudyard Kipling, and Robert Frosts poems.

Read His Majesty's Dragonby Naomi Novik. It is the BEST dragon story ever. I'm only half way through, but there are three books to it that I know of.

I found a book the other day that I'm thoroughly enjoying. It's called The Fall of Lucifer by Wendy Alec. It's written in the perspectives of Lucifer, Gabriel and Michael.

If you like books about love and vampires than you should read Twilight and New Moon by Stephanie Meyers. They are SOOOO addictive!! I love them.

If you liked that one then Search and Destroy is better. It may be more gruesome, but it tells the life of a Charlie Ranger, about your age I think, in Vietnam.

My Sister's Keeper. Go read it. All of you. Now.
And I would never feel pain / and never be without pleasure, ever, again / and if the reign stops, and everything's dry, he would cry just so I could drink the tears from his eyes...

The Return of Santiago is excellent but I reccomend reading the prequel first Unintended Consequences is excellent for you banned book readers out there
