Violets Are Blue by James Patterson

Great read! This was my first Patterson book and I can now see why he's such a popular author. he writes in such a way that is very easy for anyone to follow. His word usage and sentence structure is plain but very blunt and to the point. His story is well told. He definitely takes you on a splendid roller coaster ride with his larger than life characters. Although this book was #7 in the Cross series, I did not feel at all lost or left out of the story. Patterson carries on gracefully in this way. Very good read. I'm looking forward to reading more from Patterson soon!

The Icewind Dale Trilogy by R. A. Salvatore

I can't. I'm sorry, I just can't get into books like this. I started reading this book at the suggestion of my husband but I just can't. I like fantasy fiction but I'm a bit picky about this particular genre because I can't get into books like this. The names of people and places are ridiculously hard to pronounce (even just in your head), the scenes & stories are typical cliche's and it is extremely difficult for me to get into the story at all. Its just not for me.
However I'm sure someone that enjoys high fantasy such as World of Warcraft and Dungeons and Dragons on a frequent basis would really enjoy these books. Would definitely recommend to someone fitting this description.

Astrology and You by Carroll Righter

Great read. Although my copy is dated 1956 it still is extremely valid and has very relateble information. The author speaks in layman's terms very well so that the reader may understand each concept. She makes tons of references in each section and even adds a little of her own flare so it doesn't sound robotic. This is a very good read and a great addition to any library. Highly recommend.

Confessions of an Ugly Step Sister by Gregory Maguire

I'm sorry, I just cannot get into this story. I don't know what it is exactly but I just can't get into it and it's boring as hell. The author writes very well and very clearly. I've read a couple other books by him. But for  whatever reason I just simply cannot get into  this story. Just not interesting at all for me. I gave it a chance. That's all that matters.
