It really is a good book, Irene. I read it a few months ago. Let me know what you think! Peter Jackson also has his adaptation coming out soon, I want to say.

Yeah. I only heard about the book through the movie.  I saw the trailers and it looks pretty good. So I thought I give the book a try since the books are always better.  |

I bought Dante's Inferno today. I borrowed my copy to a friend in high school and never got it back. I also bought Sweet Thunder, a biography of Sugar Ray Robinson's life. Seems pretty interesting.

Host by Stephanie Meyer's Not sure why I bought it to be honest. It was on sale and I needed a book to read. |

I thought The Host wasn't too bad...some of the language was a bit flowery though.

Warrior of the West by MK Hume. It is the second book in a series about King Arthur, the first being Dragon's Child. The first was very good, but I bought the book for my stepfather. I'll borrow it sometime Also got a book on logical thinking and brain teasers called Enigma for my father. |

Max and Fang by James Patterson. They are part of the same series, don't know if there will be any more. Also Burned byPC and Kristin Cast, the latest House of Night series. Not the best one.

I read a review of Max (I think it was) in the newspaper a couple of weeks ago. It sounded a lot like Dark Angel |

"The Last Song," which is a Nicholas Sparks novel. I'm reading it now.
I went to see the movie recently and it was good! Miley Cirus and Kelly Preston were both in it, for those didn't know about this movie. Sad ending though. So, I know how the book will end. Not much different than most all Nicholas Sparks' novels.

I just bought "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" by Stephenie Meyer and also"Love Bites: 101 tips for dating guys with fangs" by Claire Hooper. The one by Claire Hooper is a humourous writing book, she is a host on a TV show here called Good News Week and is funny in that so I thought I would check out the book, and the Stephenie Meyer book explains itself, lol. EDIT: you can also read the stephenie meyer book online until the 7th of July 2010, if you don't wanna pay for it. But $1 from each book sale goes to the American Red Cross so I thought meh it was only $15 from Borders. Anyway --- www.BreeTanner.com |

The last book I bought...technically I bought six books at once. I bought the first six books in the Bone series because they were half priced books together. Bone is a comic book that, at first glance looks like it is for small children. But oh my..it's the most amazing, heart warming, funny thing I've read in a very very very long time.

New Moan - The first book in the Twishite Saga, by Stephfordy Mayo Obviously a New Moon parody The blurb was simply too good to pass up buying this "I want to bite you Heffa. I want to bite you very hard. I'll be gentle, I promise. If you really loved me, you'd let me"
Heffa Lump is just a typical, pale and interesting 17 year old, who doubts that anyone will ever see her true beauty. But then she moves to Spatula and meats Teddy Kelledy, and impossibly gorgeous boy who eats rare meat, is super-strong and never goes out in sunlight. Could he - just maybe - be a vampire? (Hint: Totally)
A tale of first love, painful longing and even more painful pointy teeth, New Moan is a hliarious parody of the phenomenon that is Stephanie Meyer's Twilight Saga.
