It wasn't the book's fault. The writing was beautiful and the story seemed interesting enough, but I just wasn't feeling like it. I got through the half and just didn't care anymore. Maybe I'll come back later.
I really liked the premise of the book and I had high hopes that I would really enjoy it. However, I enjoyed the beginning of the story more than the rest of the novel. A large chunk of the novel, especially the middle, was a bit dull and frustrating. The writing style was also inconsistent in my op...
At first, I wasn't sure that this luminous novel should be considered YA. After all, both protagonists are not really teenagers, though one inhabits the body of a teen and the other has no memory of her mortal life and is therefore rather ageless.But as this literally haunting love story progressed,...
To sum up my feelings right now:Seriously. It's unlike any I've ever read, but that's not necessarily a good thing.It started out just fine.

Finally, a book with a happy ending.Here is a romance with a fair amount of drama. It is decidedly not young adult if you're talking tweens or middle school, because of the sex and language. But it is a decent high schooler's story. And it addresses a few topics, albeit lightly, with which teenag...
Rating: 4.5Wow.That's all I can say about this book. Okay, but really A Certain Slant of Light is probably a book not all of you might enjoy. It's a bit weird with very... specific writing, I guess you could say. (IMO, I think the writing is GORGEOUS but that's IMO. ;D ). This is a very witty, wordy...
I listened to the audio version, and it was lovely. I loved the narrators (I think her name is Lauren Melling) voice, the way her voice sounded like she was smiling sometimes. It really fit the wonder and joy in certain scenes. I loved the writing, it was so beautiful and lyrical. I loved the way He...
