Notes

I'm such a bad blogger! I've had a chance to read a few great books, but my audiobook listening has slowed. Due to budget constraints, my library hasn't bought audiobooks in a while. However, I just ordered a bunch from a neighboring county and can't wait to have the company of a good story in my car again!

Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist was one of few realistic stories about finding one's soul mate. I love that everything happened in one night and that there wasn't necessarily any major climaxes. It was just a window into the two lives of these teens, and it was fun living vicariously through them. I can't wait to see the movie.

Peeps made me think. The science behind vampirism just makes it even scarier because it could be real. It's not myth or magic; it's SCIENCE. Still, I didn't feel a visceral pull like in some other books.

No More Dead Dogs. Good clean story. Cute tale about friendship and loyalty. More for younger readers. The audiobook was good, but some parts just didn't translate well.
