REVIEW: Chance to Dance for You by Gail Sidonie Sobat

Chance to Dance for You is a funny, and slightly exaggerated, glimpse of what it's like to be a rare out-and-proud teenager. It is also deeply heartbreaking in its truth.

REVIEW: Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

Ready Player One described in one word is epic. PURE AND UTTER EPICNESS. It has a little of something for everyone. Games, music, movies, books, fantasy, sci-fi, romance, adventure, mystery, and pretty much the whole SHE-BANG.

REVIEW: If I Tell by Janet Gurtler

If I Tell is a frustrating story to say the least. The characters, the plot, the setting is all so believable that it becomes irksome.

REVIEW: Angel by Laura Lee

[Angel] is not HEA or HFN. It does not give you the satisfaction of being happy because you know how it will all play out...in fact it does the opposite...you dread that you know what will happen, that there’s a big shadow ready to swallow up the characters at any moment.

963...

...is the number of books I have on my to-read shelf on GR. How in the world am I ever going to finish that many books in my lifetime? It doesn't even include all the unpublished books of the future. I wish people would stop writing highly interesting summaries and praising every book right and left. Maybe then I'd have less books "to-read". More than anything I guess they're more likely "to-be-considered" than "to-be-read".

I guess it's not only the time that I'm short on, but also the moolah. The cha-ching. THE GREEN (or multi-colored since I live in Canada). Well, that's what libraries are for I guess. Which reminds me...I really need to renew my library card. I never use it since I always end up just buying a book. Whenever I'm in a bookstore I always feel so torn. Anyone ever feel that way? Especially at a secondhand bookshop. There's just...so many books you can get. How do you narrow it to just one or two or three (or four, maybe 5 and 6)? Damn, why is it so hard to get a job nowadays?
