Well, it's been six months since I started this project, and I've learned a couple of things. One, I don't read the amount of quality books that I thought I did. Two, I don't actually read as much as I thought I did (although I think that moving and not taking the bus anymore has a big hand in that, and also having graduated and taken on a real job without the time between classes to read too is responsible). Third, I have gotten more stringent with my stupid rating system. I hope Meg Cabot isn't out there crying herself to sleep somewhere because I gave her crappy book two whatevers out of five. Finally, keeping up and remembering what books I've read, and what they were about is harder than I thought.
So far in 2009...
The best book has been The Observations, with The Forgotten Garden in second place. I love me some historical novels.
The worst book has been Revelations, with that Jill Mansell and Ransom my Heart tied for second. I read some crappy crap.
Coming up this summer (or so my bedside table tells me)...
New Sarah Dessen (big tortured teen "Yesssss!" on that)
New Jennifer Weiner
Some more tortured historical novels with plucky heroines, no doubt
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - probably going to be the best and most important book I ever read.
My required summertime classic - I haven't decided what it will be yet, but am taking suggestions if you have an idea...
