How to Ruin a Summer Vacation 9 reviews Simone Elkeles

Courtesy of Teens Read Too
+ Hilariously, Interseting :) + A ruined book? Not at all.
All Amy Nelson wanted was to have a regular summer. To spend time with her best friend, Jessica, and her new boyfriend. But that won't happen for Amy by a long shot. It seems that her estranged father wants her to go back to Israel with him to visit her grandmother. Sure, going to Israel may seem ...

Perfect 206 reviews Judith McNaught
Pocket, 1994
One of JM's best
+ Pleasently Perfect + This is going to be my favourite McNaught
I've read Perfect several times and it really is one of JM's best books. For contemporary romance, McNaught captures angst, inner turmoil, and conflict better than anyone else. Awesome. A must read after Paradise.

DAW, 2002
Amazing!

I am so happy I came across this book. I loved the juxtaposition of SF and anthropology. It was a very fascinating look at a very interesting world and culture-clash. I am looking forward to devouring the rest in this series!
In many ways it reminded me of Robin McKinley's "The Blue Sword" a ...

Dragonhaven
+ Angieville: DRAGONHAVEN + Give it a Chance!
I enjoyed the story very much as it revealed the boy growing in awareness regarding his world and his response to it as effected by his mothers death. The dragons are not overwhelming but are still much in tune with the growing problems they presented. All in all a nice story but it did ramble on ...

Sunshine 313 reviews Robin McKinley
Jove, 2004
Somewhat difficult to wade through, however....
I liked it.
The vampires are revolting. The violence is grisly and gruesome. The heroine is no Mary Sue.
To start out, Robin McKinley's book "Beauty" is my second favorite book in the world. I tried reading "Deerskin," but I only made it halfway (readers of that book can probably ...

I have just finished the last of the six - Checkmate. I was gripped from the first - Game of Kings. The writing is stunning, the plots complex and very exciting and the hero, Francis Crawford, is mesmerising. I highly recommend all six to anyone who is fond of historical fiction. The stories are ...
