The Help review
The Help by Kathryn Stockett My rating: 5 of 5 stars Beautifully written. This book reminds me of my own extended family that lives in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and a couple of my aunts that go around cleaning other people’s houses and sitting for people at the hospital.

I'm starting a quotes journal :D
Because all the great quotes I find in books can’t always fit in my reading journal. Who knows, this may lead to a quotes side blog :)

Dracula is a pretty interesting book as well (never saw that movie either)
A Friend of the Family, on the other hand, is ticking my nerves.

And Then There Were None review
And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie My rating: 5 of 5 stars Wow! Just when I thought Agatha Christie couldn’t get any better, I read this! I’m truly in awe with the mystery master :) It’s a good thing I read the epilogue and the end note; I admit I don’t always do with books, but now I definitely will. Great read! View all my reviews

Book Review
First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones My rating: 5 of 5 stars I read the second book of this series first (not knowing it was second in a series) and the awesomeness of that book led me to want to read this one. This book is just as awesome as the second! I loved it; read the entire book in one day and I can’t wait to get and read the third! View all my reviews
