Insight

     Hey guys I was searching for books this morning and I came across this one on Goodreads. There weren't very many comments, and I was wondering if anyone else had heard of or read this book.

Goodreads summary: 

Some secrets won't let you go.Elvira Witsil lives about as far away from civilization as you can get, in a remote corner of Wisconsin where nothing much ever happens. In a house crowded with her mother, her cantankerous grandmother, and her little sister, Jessie, Elvira feels forgotten and alone.Their house also contains numerous secrets, and Elvira's family holds their secrets closely. Secrets about the father that Jessie never knew, and that Elvira can't forget. Secrets about that day five years ago. And the one secret that Elvira can't quite understand: that Jessie sees things no one else can see.These secrets will lead Elvira and her family on a journey far away from home—on a journey toward redemption and healing—if she can just bring herself to believe.

Fallen

     Fallen by Lauren Kate is the first book in a series about mysteries, angels, love, and danger. I loved it! Has anyone else noticed how books come in trends? First vampires and werewolves now angels. I'm not complaining because I love angel books, but let's get some originality here authors!

***** Five Stars

     Luce is not excited to be at boarding school. She is forced to attend because of the mysterious death of her boyfriend. Who else can you blame when she was the only one with him? Adding to that she sees shadows. She has seen them her whole life. They float around never interfering with her life... until now.

     Luce meets Daniel, a familiar looking boy who seems to want to stay as far away from her as possible. As a matter of fact, the people at school either hate her or love her, and they all seen to know something that she doesn't. Something that affects every ones lives.

     Finally, Luce learns the truth. The scary, unrealistic truth. Daniel is an angel, and he meets her every 17 years. And after they meet she dies. Then the cycle starts over again and again.  Something is different this time. There will be a war. Luce's life is on the line, but what can she do to stop the course of fate?

Follow Friday(11)

Hey. It's April 1st! Did anyone pull any good pranks??? I love watching peoples reactions! Anyway, Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee.

This week's question:What is the book that you really don't want to admit to loving?? 

I don't really have an answer for this. I don't think I have ever read a book that I didn't like at least some of it... I hate when people criticize every part of a book. They don't really think about the author's feeling when they insult their writing...So after my little monologue, the thing you should take away from this post is: DON'T CRITICIZE BOOKS!*Phae Phae*
