Re-read: Power Plays & Straight A's for the second time. I like the social awkward nerd who happens to fall in love with his best friend's hockey playing brother. I even liked the weird friend, Rae, who is very deadpan in responses.

David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants by Malcolm Gladwell. Not as good as The Tipping Point and Outliers, but still a compelling read. This one felt like the stories overwhelmed the analysis.

The "Odd Thomas" series by Dean Koontz. I fell in love with Odd and rooted for him through out all of the books. I loved the way he could always see but, not enough to know everything. He even has a ghost dog in a couple of books. A MUST read!.

The Darling Buds of May by H.E. Bates - not many stories feature randy old spinsters. When I heard it was going to be dramatized for TV, I thought, they'll never find an actress with eyes like bees to play Mariette, and they found Catherine Zeta Jones.

The Name of the Wind and its sequel The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss. It's a compelling and enjoyable epic fantasy series, and the only disappointing thing is having to wait until 2016 for the last installment!

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. A great book with a character who struggles to get what she wants, maintain friendships and fall in love while finding out the truth about the world she once knew. YA must read.

Ash by Malinda Lo - It's a well written retelling of Cinderella that includes a fairy and a huntress. A good twist on a classic tale.

The Raven Boys and The Dream Thieves (books 1 and 2) of "The Raven Cycle" by Maggie Stiefvater. Absolutely refreshing way of writing. Loved both of them, now have to spend a year hanging out for the third book.

The Last Thing I Remember by Andrew Klavan. Book 1 in a trilogy about a teen who wakes up unable to remember what happened. It's a definite boy book with karate, guns and even a bomb. High action and kept me reading.

Paranormalcy by Kiersten White. I liked the book for YA paranormal romance. Main character is quirky though obsesses over the boy a bit. And story went routes I didn't expect. Good read overall.

The Thirteenth Chime by Emma Michaels. It was an okay book, had an interesting premise. Liked the Ex-BF main character more than the Girl main character.

I love fantasy and am currently reading Ring of Intrigue (Book 2) by Jane S. Fancher. What an imagination she has!

Ilium and Olympos by Dan Simmons. Think Sci-Fi and Greek mythology with a touch of Shakespeare and dinosaurs. I highly recommend the two books.
