Cold Fire by Dean R. Koontz

I started this book on 10/12/2009. I finished this book on 10/29/2009.

It was a pretty good book. My edition was extremely long because it was large print but it's what the library had so I took it. Anyhow, it was a book of twist but not to many that you got lost. I would have liked more twist. So I gave it a 3 star...
Now on to book 50!! :) If I finish this next book, and I have a strong feeling I will, by the end of the year then I'll have reached my goal! :)

Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

I started this book on 10/07/2009. I finished this book on 10/11/2009.

I think I read this book in high school. It was enjoyable but it was definately a young adult book. I felt so sorry for Melinda through-out the whole book. I can't say I understand what she went through and hopefully I'll never be able to say I understand it. Maybe girls in high school that have gone through what Melinda went through would like and feel with the book more then girls that haven't. Overall it was a 3 star for me. I couldn't really put it down but it wasn't the best book I've ever read before. BUT I did enjoy the ending, which is rare that I can say that about books.

Only two more books and I'll reach my goal of 50 books for the year of 2009!!! :)

Brink of Death by Brandilyn Collins

I started this book on 09/30/2009. I finished this book on 10/07/2009.

This book was really good. It kept me guessing through the whole book. Wasn't as many twist and turns as other books I'd read but still there were some. I felt sorry for Annie and Stephan. I couldn't imagine being like that with my mom. And then Erin seeing what she saw. Can't wait to read the next book in this series. Gave this book 3.5 stars!

Now on to book #48 which is Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson...I recorded the movie for this book so I can't wait to compare the two...AND only two more books till I reach my goal of 50 books for the year of 2009! But don't worry I won't stop reading once I reach 50 books! haha

Friday Fill-In #144

And...here we go!

1. I have a history of always having a book with me (is that such a bad thing?).

2. Another language is something I wish I knew.

3. I'm eating (or recently ate) an apple cored and sliced with some splenda and cinnamon on it and I microwaved it for about 45 seconds...YUM!

4. Stay on the road.

5. So that's it, that's enough!

6. Some is better than nothing!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to being off of work, mom coming home from her mission trip in Romania and Jessi coloring my hair, tomorrow my plans include babysitting, homework, and laundry and Sunday, I want to go to Homecoming at church and relax!
