I am currently working on my Master's Thesis, but I procrastinate by reading all the books I can! In the meantime, I have a good job with fun people.

Angels Fall

Angels Fall
By Nora Roberts
444p

Definitely didn't see the end coming! Surprisingly, I had no idea who the villian was. Good characters, I always like the secondary characters so much- Joanie, Lo, Linda-gail, Serge.
8/10

Eclipse

Eclipse
By Stephenie Meyer
629p

Lots of twists and turns. She's gotten more comfortable writng the kissing scenes. I can't believe Jacob is asking Bella to be his Leah, though. Definitely annoyed at him for that!
8/10

Ten Minutes From Normal

Ten Minutes From Normal
By Karen Hughes
0670033057
335p

Interesting woman with such a different life. She's funny and well-spoken (well-written?). Definitely a good book to read, liked the behind-the-scenes feel of it. Of course, huge West Wing fan here!

New Moon

New Moon
By Stephenie Meyer
9780316160193 563p

Figured out the Jacob thing pretty quickly. Nice plot twist with the clliff, didn't see that becoming important. Melodramatic but a fun read. Loved the Paris analogy, that was my favorite chapter. Definitely looking forward to the 3rd!
8/10

The US Open

The US Open: Game, Set, Unmatched
By Roger M. Williams
0783552602 185p

Went to the US Open, almost finished this book on time! Some terms in here I didn't understand, obviously meant for people who know tennis. And old-1996. But good, gave me a good background on what I saw Saturday.
8/10
