A review of "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister: A Novel"

Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister: A Novel

by Gregory Maguire

I found this book to be sort of dull and rather unfulfilling. Maguire’s Wicked was brilliant, so I think I might still read other books by him. This one just didn’t live up to the expectations.

A question I have about "Villa Incognito"

nobody@allconsuming.net (DepressedBird) — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 18:00:01 GMT

Villa Incognito

by Tom Robbins

I was hoping the beginning about the animal and the girl was an intro or a story, but it never seemed to end. Does this book get any better? I’m stalled a few chapters in.

A review of "The Memory Keeper's Daughter"

nobody@allconsuming.net (DepressedBird) — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 18:34:29 GMT

The Memory Keeper's Daughter

by Kim Edwards

The writing in this book was decent, sure, but the content was lacking. While there was great potential contained in the story, the “climax” was premature and, well, anti-climatic. Although we learn more about the characters throughout the book, there was no real progression or development of them. This book left me feeling dissappointed and slightly bored.

Why I recommend "Dogrun"

Dogrun

by Arthur Nersesian

I love how unheroic and hesistant nersesian’s “heros” are.
