A nice, easy to read holiday story. There is something for everyone: romance, mystery, action, and some great characters. I read it in a day.

Fast-paced legal thriller about an inexperienced lawyer who gets in over his head when he takes on a new client, and may be responsible for his client turning up dead after his first court appearance. Seems like the whole City of Boston is a suspect.

This was a fun book that I really enjoyed. An interesting take on the King Arthur/Guenevere/Lancelot story. A sequel is coming out in 2007!!

Although I liked this book in general, I was a little disappointed in the ending. The book was very detailed about Katherine's life up until Anne Boleyn, then it was rushed. I didn't like this book nearly as much as The Other Boleyn Girl or The Queen's Fool.

This was the first Christine Feehan book I read and I loved it!! I can't wait to read the rest of the series. This book also has a short story called Dark Descent at the end and I loved that too! I hope to hear more about Mikhail, Raven, Traian and Joie in the future.

This book was a riot! The boss was totally over-the-top but I think more than a few people out there will be able to relate to Andrea. I know I could. Even if you have no interest in the fashion industry, if you have ever worked for a demanding boss you must read this book.

Anne Frank uncensored - lol. The same wonderful story with some parts that were edited from the original book.

Interesting book about an 18-year-old who checks herself into a mental hospital. It chronicles her 2 year stay at McLean Hospital in Mass. and the other patients and psych workers she meets there. It's an easy read and not nearly as depressing as it sounds!

My all-time favorite book. I have at least three copies. I'm so happy to share this. Although this book is billed as a love story, it doesn't read like a typical sappy love story at all. There is so much more to it. Scarlett O'Hara is one of the most unlikable characters ever, but you can't help rooting for her. What she goes through is unbelievable. Rhett Butler is the bad boy with the heart of gold.

A little scarier than the first Harry Potter book. These books just get better and better. Harry is packing for his second year at Hogwarts when an elf named Dobby finds him and warns him that if he returns to Hogwarts he'll be in trouble!!

Another fantastic Harry Potter book. Harry is entered into the Triwizard Tournament between Hogwarts and two other schools of magic. Not everyone is happy about Harry being in the tournament though because technically he's too young and not experienced enough. If you enjoyed the other 3 Harry Potter books you'll enjoy this one even more.
