Been a little behind...

So I've still been reading, just haven't been that great at updating my blog lately. :( But I figure with a wedding fast approaching, and buying, fixing up, and moving into a new condo...I should be forgiven. LOL. I try to get in most of my reading at work on my lunch breaks, which works great because not only do I get in my reading time, but I save money since I eat my lunch in.

Here's a condensed list/review of the last few books I have read....

53 out of 101: The Next Thing on My List

I had picked this book up and Borders, and the description on the back really caught my attention. It was about a car accident that killed the passenger in the vehicle. The driver felt horrible about the accident, even though it truely was just that- an accident. However she discovered that the girl had complied a list of 25 things to do before she turned 25. So she set out to complete the list for her. Overall the book was ok. It moved a little slow, and was honestly a bit hard for me to get into. The concept was great, but something just lacked in the writing. There were a few great moments in the book, even a couple moments that made me laugh out loud, which is always nice.

54 out of 101: Change of Heart

Another great book by one of my most favorite authors, Jodi Picoult. This was a complex read, which is exactly why I love her books. She always manages to take topics that appear very black and white, and she finds that grey area. And of course there is always that twist. Not my favorite Picoult book (those would definitely be My Sister's Keeper, and The Pact) but still a great book that I enjoyed very much.

55 out of 101: Something Borrowed

This was just a fun, easy read. It was the second book that I read by Emily Giffen, and I totally enjoyed every moment of it. Her writing style is so easy and the whole novel just flowed. I was completely sucked into the story line, and even though it was so bad of Rachel (the main character) to lust after her best friend's fiancee, you still just couldn't help to root for her. It was one of those guilty pleasures... haha like celebrity gossip magazine or reality tv. LOL. I'd definitely reccomend it to someone who was just looking for a fun, quick read (I finished it in less than a week--even with the wedding planning, move, work...etc....)
