3.5 stars, rounded down to 3 for GR because if I hadn't been reading this for two challenges, I would have put it down in the first 15% or so. I had higher hopes for this one, having read & enjoyed Ethan Day's books previously, but the first 1/5 or so was all over the place and often seemingly random. (view spoiler) It didn't help that there was no formatting for changes in scene or POV, but the beginning chapters seemed to be a mismash of establishing Cassidy's backstory and character. Once the other MC finally shows up (though I didn't know who it was going to be at the time), the book gets a bit more orderly and enjoyable. I really loved the locale -- a small island of the coast of North Carolina, complete with all the feeling of a small island town where they take care of their own and don't have much truck with mainlanders. The pet aspect was sweet, too -- a little Yorkie that MC #1 rescues from some feral dogs. The dog actually has a role as a secondary character, she's not just window dressing, and I like that a lot. The problems of randomness showed up later in the book, too. I think some tighter editing and cutting maybe 20% would have helped a lot. Overall a decent beach read and great tribute to MC #1's deceased grandmother and the importance of loving family, both blood family and chosen family.

The Lightning Thief was an exciting and adventurous book which also was connected to Greek mythology and their gods and goddesses. Percy Jackson is the main character of this book, the son of the great sea god Poseidon and a human woman which made him a demigod. Mythical creatures start to attack him and turned his normal life into a chaotic adventurous life. Zeus’s most precious lightning bolt was stolen, and Zeus thinks Poseidon and Percy were the ones who had stolen it which causes an argument between the gods. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover-new friends that he met when he went to camp half-blood-travel together to go find the lightning bolt which was believed to be in possession of Hades. Going through many obstacles and difficulties they try to find the entrance of hell and meet Hades. I really enjoyed reading this book that was thrilling. There some twist and turns that surprised me in the story, and some funny parts in the story as well. I would recommend this book to others who like adventure, fantasy, and supernatural like things in their readings.

Another one of my favorites. Really if Chaim Potok wrote it--I usually love it. Chaim Potok often writes about Orthodox Jewish characters who have extraordinary gifts and have to balance their religioius devotion and their secular talents and this book is also about that.

What a great story! Holder has taken the idea of Beauty and the Beast and come up with an entirely new adventure. I believe this was for a younger/teen audience, but I still enjoyed it. Very well written and the emotion of the characters was brought out in her writing.

Okay, it's kind of like reviewing the Atlantic Ocean, but reading this was truly one of the highpoints of my life.

From Publishers Weekly Preparations for a ballet school recital in Tinker's Cove, Mass., provide the setting for this second, determinedly domestic, Lucy Stone adventure, after Mail-Order Murder. Lucy, in her sixth month of pregnancy, is fully enmeshed in family life with her husband and three youngsters when her neighbor Caroline Hutton, mentor to ballet instructor Tatiana, disappears. The police say the 70-year-old former dancer has simply gone on vacation without telling anyone. Lucy and Tatiana aren't so sure, but Tatiana's recital preparations and Lucy's domestic demands preclude further investigation. Lucy lends her video camera to her friend Franny, who has been falsely accused of stealing from the hardware store where she works. The owner finds the recorder, confiscates it and sacks Franny, but when Lucy goes to the store to demand its return, she finds that the owner has been bludgeoned to death with the camera. When Franny is arrested for murder, Lucy resolves to save her. Meier links the missing neighbor and the murdered hardware store owner in this quirky, low-key puzzle, which is packed with the details of small-town, family life.

my teacher wrote this book. he's sharp as a tack, but a nut case. based on what i know him, i'm sure this book is full of valuable insights, but from an unusually narrow perspective.

It was OK, but not great.

Picking up only a few months after Married with Zombies left off, In the second book of the Living with Zombies series, Sarah and David have branded themselves as Zombiebusters Extermination, Inc. and are now known far and wide as the go-to zombie killers. Lately, though their clients have insisted that with each kill they remove the zombie’s head and turn them in before receiving payment (yes, a zombie apocalypse is so bad that Sponge Bob Squarepants band-aids are considered payment!). And there’s been from clients and those at a local camp for survivors about souped up zombies, who seem more aware, faster and harder to kill. Then, while at camp, they find a note on a communal bulletin board asking them to meet with someone who signs the letter “A Friend,” at an unknown location as this friend requires their assistance for a unique task. After deciding to meet the mysterious potential client, they find themselves someplace I really want to talk about, but won’t so as not to give away too much of the story. I can say that they find someone who wants them to capture live zombies for seemingly altruistic reasons. While terrifying for Sarah and David, this leads to some pretty comical attempts on their part. In the meantime, they’re also trying to confirm or deny the existence of the bionic zombies, as Sarah calls them, and figure out if the one person who offers them unexpected hope can be trusted. The book was packed with action and more than a few surprises (view spoiler) I’m not going to say what causes it, but for a short while David and Sarah are separated, and I found her complete and utter joy and relief at seeing him again so sweet. She’s tough as nails, and not in the annoying way that so many attempts at writing badass chicks can be, but it’s nice that we occasionally get a glimpse of a more vulnerable Sarah. Not that I want her to be a wimpy marshmallow, but with these scenes, she seems more real. And for my holiday or birthday wish lists, I’m not picky about which one, I’d like a David, please. I really liked him in Married with Zombies, but my approval rating of him went through the roof with this book. He was the perfect amount of everything: amusing, heroic, cynical, protective, loyal, suspicious…I could go on but I think you get the picture. It’s while trying to capture their first zombie that they run into a young boy named Robbie. What can I say about Robbie? They end up saving him from attacking zombies and he ultimately ends up tagging along for the ride. I kinda felt like Sarah in that while I felt like he should have annoyed the crap out of me, I grudgingly liked him and didn’t want him to get hurt. I loved that Petersen didn’t shove kid gloves on Sarah when she dealt with Robbie, her reactions to his snotty little comments, looks and his attack of her are hilarious! While I try to keep my reviews fairly clean, but in real life I pretty much cuss like a sailor, much to my mother’s dismay, so the lack of any sort of filter on David’s, and especially Sarah’s, words or thoughts (when she inner monologued to herself that she probably owed David a blow job, I was practically snorting) fills me with slightly guilty, giddy delight. While I would love for there to be an end to the zombie madness so that Sarah and David can have a happily ever after, as well as electricity, I want this series to keep going on for a long time because it’s definitely one of my favorites!
