Dear God,
If we're all supposed to die tomorrow, can it wait until after my brother's graduation party please?
Thank you,

The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri *SPOILER ALERT*

The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I hated the ending! I wanted him to find out what his name would have been if his grandmother named him! (And I kind of like books that pull things together in the end rather than leaving so many loose ends.) I really didn't want him to end up alone. I read this for a class and we were always talking about how great it would be if Ruth would come back into his life again because she really was good for him and appreciated him as he was. Maxine was too focused on herself and Moushumi freaking CHEATED ON HIM! I was so mad at her! Especially since it was with a balding fat guy! Ugh!

The Mercedes Thompson series by Patricia Briggs

This isn't for this book, but the third book in the series instead. (They're all amazing!) *Spoiler Alert!*

Iron Kissed by Patricia Briggs

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


It was simply AMAZING. I wondered for a while how Ben knew all of that about her but then I remembered why he had come to America. And I still don't think that completely justifies it, nor does his own abuse as a child. Still, I love the way Briggs explains things through her readers; She gives everyone time to catch up, but doesn't let the fast thinkers get bored while doing it. And the last line! Oh man, I wanted her to elaborate a little on that. :)

Succubus Blues by Richelle Mead

Hello all! It's been way too long! I think I should start this up again though, although weekly may be a bit much, but be sure to check back once a month for sure!

Succubus Blues is a very interesting book by Richelle Mead. I absolutely loved it and it is one of my new "favorite books of all time".
It's about a succubus who is tired of being a succubus, she wants to live as a human and so she only steals the life force from sleazy guys rather than the real good guys. She works at a bookstore and she's super excited that her favorite author is coming to do a book signing. Her best friends are two vampires and a demon, (if you don't count her cat). When someone starts killing other immortals, she is suspected of being the murderer! She goes out investigating and meanwhile tries to juggle a love-life. The problem is, the guys who like her at the moment are really good guys and she doesn't want to hurt them by doing anything that would steal their lives from them. That means no kissing for Georgia Kincaid!
This book is soo well written, I really loved it. Some twists may have been hinted at ahead of time, but nothing that you'd be able to actually guess before it happens. This book is fresh and exciting! It's the first in the series of Georgia Kincaid books, so get started reading it now!!
