Hey Everyone,
It's been a while since I posted anything and I have read several books. Reviews to come soon but for now here is a list:
-Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult
-Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult
-The Pact by Jodi Picoult
-She's So Dead to Us by Kieran Scott
-Reality Check by Jen Calonita
-The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks
-Wanted by Sara Shepard
I highly recommend all of these books. I also attended an Author Panel with Sara Shepard, Kieran Scott, and Jen Calonita. They are so nice and such good authors. I hope to read more of their books soon.
Books I Would Like to Read:
-Gallows Hill by Lois Duncan
-The Jane Rizzoli and Maura Isles Series by Tess Gerritsen
-The Life and Death of Charlie St. Cloud by Ben Sherwood
I also got the NOOK. Do any of you have the nook and if so do you like it?
Have you read any of the books I mentioned? If so what did you think of them? Did you read anything else by these authors? What books do you recommend to your friends?

Heartless
Hey Everyone,
So last week I finished reading Sara Shepard's book called Heartless. It is the latest book in the Pretty Little Liar series. Like always one minute you think you know what is going to happen but then you read a couple more pages and you now have no idea what is going to happen. In this book I felt like Sara was starting to like tie up the book, because I am not 100% positive, but I believe that there will only be one more book. I did like that Spencer wasn't adopted, however I was a little shocked that she would just forgive her parents just like that. I liked that she did but to me it just didn't feel right. Moving onto other matters I still do not like Darren Wilden, there is something about him that gives me a very iffy feeling. I also get that same feeling times 100 about Jason DiLaurentis. Okay, moving onto a major spoiler if you didn't read the book yet; in the very last chapter I just had this feeling that it was Jenna who was killed not Melissa because of little things throughout the book. And finally before I rate the book I would just like to say/ask did anyone who read the book think just for a minute that Alison wasn't dead, she was really Iris. I know that probably isn't the case but there were a few minutes when I got that feeling like is that Alison? Feel free to give me your thoughts. So my rating for this book is "five books".

New Blogger Feature
Hey Everyone,
So recently Blogger add a new feature where you can now add pages. If you look under where it says Book Chat Central you can see "Home" and "Books I Have Reviewed". Hopefully I will add more soon, but right now all I have is a list of books I have reviewed. I will try to figure out if there is a way to click on a title and go to the post about it. Stay tuned to find out. And please please please tell your friends about my blog. I know I said I would be blogging more and I will but right now I don't have all that much to read. It's so sad but as soon as I start reading more I will post more.

Great Expectations
Hey Everyone,
Just last week we finished reading the book Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. In my opinion this book was very long and most of the story wasn't all that interesting. The last like ten chapters were the best but unfortunately you kind of need to read the beginning to understand what is going on. It's a really good storyline because it is basically a soap opera but someone seriously needs to write a modern edition like people did with Shakespeare's work. If you chose to read this book you will learn that Dickens put everything in for a reason. I am giving this book a rating of 3 books because although the storyline is great, the actual book is a little boring.
