My absolute favorite book is The Host by Stephenie Meyer. I love the writing style and it is the type of book that sticks with you! With a unique plot and unforgettable characters, it is easily a book you can read over and over. If you haven't checked it out, you should!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is Mercury's War by Lora Leigh. I love PNR books and her characters are so real and the emotions just flow from the pages.

Hi Jinky! Congrats on 100 followers! :) I'm a new follower, myself, from follow friday! :)
ReplyDeleteCan I name a favorite SERIES? I absolutely LOVE the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey. If I had to chose a specific book, I suppose either Moreta: Dragonlady of Pern or The White Dragon. I recommend Anne McCaffrey to anyone I can. I first picked up this series when I was EIGHT. I'm 20. It's so innovative for a science fiction world, and I've been completely enamored with her world of Pern from the very first page. Her writing is superb and is what made me aspire to be a writer! Am I ranting? I'll stop. :x
Here's what I'm currently reading.
Stopping by from the follow just to say have a great weekend.

Hi! Thanks for returning the hop! If I were to recommend a tame urban fantasy / paranormal novel I'd say Rachel Vincent's Shifters series. There's not too much weirdness in it other than the fact that they turn into werecats until later in the series. It's very good! I have reviews of the last 3 books on my blog if you're interested. :)

My favorite book as of right now is Heart of Lies by M.L.Malcolm it is such a heartwarming, and intriguing story all at the same time!

Hi. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I really love your blog, especially your short reviews. You have such a wonderfully eclectic taste! Count me as a new follower. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat is one of my favorite books? That's a pretty hard decision, but I think I'm going to go with Never Let Me Go by Kazou Ishiguro. The thing that really stuck out to me about this book was its honesty. The people in it were real people, just trying to live out their lives and spend what little time they had with the people they loved. I posted a review of it on my goodreads awhile back in case you're interested.

Happy reading. :)
Hey Jinky! Missing you over here!
ReplyDeleteI remember reading The Outsiders in highschool...but I can't remember all the details. Congrats on 100 followers!
Hi there! :D Thanks for stopping by my blog and I must confess, I like your color palate much better than mine! xD I'm now a new follower of yours. ;3
ReplyDeleteAlso, my favorite book--well, it's the first book in the series--has to be Karen Marie Moning's Darkfever (from the Fever series). It's Adult Urban Fantasy, but I love it mainly because of her writing style and the way that the character interact (not to mention, there's always a memorable quote or ten).
thanks for hopping to my blog.Please enter me in your contest.

My favorite author is stephanie myers. The reason is I had stopped reading iin high school. Im 43 now. I wasnt a good reader at all. when twilight came out i wanted to know what my daughter was reading. I read them and loved them. I have been reading every since. Now i even have my own blog. who would of thought. I also win books read them and donate them to the public library here. They lost their funding for the YA books. so i donate.
