I really enjoyed this one also.. but it is book 3 and I feel the same way as 3.5. I have missed some stuff. Cliffhanger ending but that's ok. I don't mind those except when I haven't read the others first and have to review a book lol. The writing was awesome, characters amazing and the plot was very good. I am glad I got to review this

I enjoyed this book. Parts made me sad.. some parts mad.. and others I wanted to kiss the author and say thank you. lol So many feelings and thoughts and the writing was amazing. It made me feel like I was a part of the story and I was seeing it play out. The characters were awesome and complex. I really enjoyed this and am glad I got to review it.

This book picks up right where book one left off. The writing is exceptional. I love how [Weitz] gives each of his characters a distinctive voice by alternating chapters. This allows the reader to get a feel for the character and different point of views. The end of this book he even hints at more to come with the voice of one of the characters. Ready for the next one.

Young adult novel about a teen who moves to a small town in Washington and falls in love with a vampire... I enjoyed it (and this isn't my normal reading fare), but couldn't past the terrible writing, lack of character development, and clunky passages that just made me cringe. If it had been better developed and written, it would have been a total winner, because it still had me spellbound.

Stephen King always managed to draw me into his books. But with this one I was totally hooked and it was on my mind long after I finished reading it. The idea of going back in time to potentially change something so huge, it stays with you! I've read this book 3 times now and will undoubtedly read a lot more!

I love the TV show Castle, so I had to check out the book the main character has been writing. The tie ins to the TV show were very fun for me. As a mystery, it was pretty good, too, although the first half was way over written.

Aging Hollywood star Polly Pepper finds the road to a comeback is dangerous when she steps into a role that lead to two murders on a movie set. Filled with Hollywood gossip and over the top characters, it's a fun debut that suffers from some rough writing.

The Commission: A Sam Kincaid Mystery

The story in this novel managed to capture my attention fairly well (even if I did figure out a good portion of the plot early on), but the writing was rather painful. The author left nothing to the imagination or inference, but spelled every single plot point, emotion, and thought out. I found myself rolling my eyes fairly often... but still curious as to what would happen next.
