Review: A Need so Beautiful (from The Book Tramp) →
“Sometimes books don’t live up to their hype. That can be especially true when the people doing the hyping are close to the story or close to the author. I had heard a lot this spring and summer about Suzanne Young’s new book. I read positive things from author Hannah Moscowitz and blogger Sara Gundell ofNovel Novice, both of whom are friends with Suzanne. So while I wanted to be...

“Fans of Clockwork Angel, the first book in Cassandra Clare’s Infernal Devices trilogy, will discover here an even darker and sexier trip through the gaslit streets of Victorian London. Tessa Gray, 16, whose power was unveiled in Clockwork Angel, has settled in with the Shadowhunters inside the London Institute. Benedict Lightwood covets the Institute for himself, and the plot centers...

Name change: Shelf Talkers Anonymous
Hey all. I’ve been playing with the idea of vamping up my blog, adding more reviews, etc. I’ve also been playing around with wordpress and how I might make this all work for me a little better. I’m not abandoning tumblr. For now, there’s just the name change.

Notes on a book: I Am Number Four
Rating: Fun read I have to admit I saw the movie before reading this book, and while I didn’t hate the movie, it certainly didn’t make me want to read the book. It was a good action movie (lots of explosion at the end because it is a Michael Bay movie), and there were cool aliens, but in general, not my thing. I had to read this book for my YA Publishing class this term and I...

Notes on a book: The Hunger Games
Rating: Must read Dystopia is the thing right now, but The Hunger Games is what started it all. If you haven’t read this book yet, then you need to. Whether you’re a teen or an adult. Our world is long gone. Katniss lives in District Twelve, one of the city-states in the country of Panema (the remnants of what used to be North America). And of the first day of this story she is...

This is why I don't read The New York Times Book... →
Because there isn’t a single book on here (maybe, maybe Swamplandia) that I would ever read. But if you’re a literary fiction fan, check out their Top 10 Books of the Year.
