My Library Reads No. 3

My Library Reads is a spotlight on the library books that I have read during the previous week. This is not a post on what books I borrowed but books that I read. Since I don't review library books, this is a way to still be able to showcase them on my blog.

BTW, if anyone knows of another meme that is like this on another blog, could you please let me know? I don't know of any myself, but if there is one already in place, I'd like to give credit where credit is due!

Library Books read from 12/5/10 - 12/11/10

Sabotage by Kit Wilkinson (Steeple Hill, 2010)

Christian Fiction - Romantic Suspense: I thought this might be interesting because it took place in Virginia but it turned out to be kinda meh. Nothing too exciting really happened. Dealt with horse doping which was kinda interesting. Read for Fall Reading Challenge.


Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke (Kensington, 2001)

Cozy Mystery - First in the Hannah Swensen Mystery series. Loved this book! The characters were fun and engaging and the mystery was very well done. Loved all the cookie recipes sprinkled throughout the book. Definitely will be looking into reading more from this popular series. Read for fall reading challenge.


Death by Darjeeling by Laura Childs (Berkley Prime Crime, 2001)

Cozy Mystery - First in the Tea Shop Mystery series. I thought this book was going to be good because I like tea, I like cozy mysteries and I know this author is really popular. Unfortunately, I was pretty bored throughout the entire book. Even the tea talk wasn't very fun. I don't think I'll be reading any more books in this series but I might give the author's other books to give her a second chance. Read for fall reading challenge.

Audiobooks:

Adventures in Odyssey: Into the Light (Tyndale, 2007)

Adventures in Odyssey: Odditions (Tyndale, 2006)

    That Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder sounds like fun, but then again, I ain't a huge fan of Christian fiction. But I have read Christian books.

I was more than pleasantly surprised and shocked while reading this book. I have the first three books of the Twilight series and I will admit that I am not really a fan of them. The writing in those books is not very well done, plus I have problems with the storyline and the characters in general. Plus with all the hype surrounding them, it just makes the reading seem more tedious. Therefore I approached The Host with rather low expectations and prepared myself for another Twilight except with aliens. Boy was I in for a shocker. When I started reading, I was amazed at how I got sucked into the book. I really didn't expect to, be

It's here! Today is my 3 year blogiversary! (Never mind tha t the first entry is marked on 9/20, I had written that post the day after and then backdated it) . I can't believe that I'm still here and blogging away! As al ways, the reason why I started blogging was thanks to Camy Tang's blog which inspired m e to write my own blog. My main goal was to blog about the books I read because I figured I'd like others to know about the good books that were ou t there . I honestly can't believe that it's lasted this long and I hope to keep going strong. I've met so many new friends in the past year alone and I've even gotten to meet several in person and I'm going to meet more next week at the National Book Festival! I'd also like to say thank you to those who nominated me for Best Cultural Review Blog for the 2009 BBAW Awards. It's truly been an honor that you considered me for that award and even more awesome that I made the shortlist
