Here is where you write your best reads, who it's by and why you love it so much! My first best read is Just Listen by Sarah Dessen. It's an amazing book because it tackles honesty issues hardcore, as well as throwing in an attempted rape, eating disorders and fight-fueld objects of affection. You literally fall in love with Annabel and Owen because they're so epic, though the mom and Whitney annoys me a bit... I guess some characters have to be difficult, though, because not everyone's amazing in real life  |

my best read book is beauty by Robin McKinley! i love this book since i have read it three to four times and it is still a really good book, even if it is kind of a different version of beauty and the beast, in Robin McKinley's perspective of writing it and she is great author and i still love all her books!  |

I really enjoyed "In Fire Forged" by Laura Resnick. (The White Dragon, Pt 1; The Destroyer Goddess, Pt2) I actually didn't read the book that came before these two, (In Legend Born) but they still gave enough background that I could enjoy them without having read the first. It took me a little while to get into it, as there were a lot of characters and it took me a while to learn who everyone was, and what was going on, and it took me about a week to get through the White Dragon, but only a day to read the Destroyer Goddess because by then I just wanted to find out what happened! It was one of those epic fantasy novels, which I adore... The main characters are believable, and mostly lovable, and there are some lovely twists... |

The Tale of Despereaux was an awesome book, one of my favorites already, and I've only read it once! That's rare. Usually books only make it to that list after two or three times of being read.
One reason I liked it was because it felt kind of like you were being talked to, at least part of the time. Other than that, I liked the theme. It didn't just make you ask questions, the author literally asked you questions.

My second book of No & Be is called 'Never Bite A Boy On The First Date' by Tamara Summers. It's hillarious! I think I've read it about 10 times now! The summary is: When we found the guy and saw the holes in his neck, the cause of death was obvious.
"It wasn't me," I said. "I make one mistake and suddenly every little vampire attack is my fault? That's so unfair!"
But it doesn't matter how much I protest, unless I can prove my innocence I'll be spending the next decade in a padded coffin.
So now I'm on a mission to track down the real murderer. I've narrowed it down to three suspects.
All acting suspiciously. All boys. And all very cute... It's a seriously funny read and totally on the Best Reads list! |
