June Books

Untraceable - Laura Griffin I enjoyed this immensely.

The Body in the Gallery - Katherine Hall Page My first Faith Fairchild book, and it a fun quick read.

Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins (reread) wasn't as well written as I remembered it, but I still adored it.

Bitterblue - Kristin Cashore I was worried I wasn't going to love this. I loved every page, even the slow beginning. Want. More.

The Body in the Ivy - Katherine Hall Page I know she was going for an homage to Agatha Christie's And Then There Was None, but it came off as a rip off to me.

The Body in the Sleigh - Katherine Hall Page By this time I decided maybe four in a month was too many.

The Body in the Gazebo - Katherine Hall Page Redemption, because this one was much better.

Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins (reread) Loved this one more than the first.

212 - Alafair Burke Loved.

The Running Dream - Wendelin Van Draanen I was looking for something to read and went perusing Elizabeth's list from last month. Yep, it was excellent, and just what I needed to kick start my workouts again.

Murder, Mayhem and Mama - Christie Craig Bubblegum but fun.

Mockingjay - Suzanne Collins (reread) Harder to read - I didn't enjoy it as much but I still wanted to keep going (yes I've read the series before). I don't like what she did to the series but I still like how it ends. Does that make sense?

The Long Fall - Walter Mosley Meh.

Birdman - Mo Hayder hard to get into, but well written. Now that I've gotten to know the characters I would be interested in reading more about them.

The Vow - Kim Carpenter I was not impressed.

Victoria Gardella - Colleen Gleason I would have liked this short story/novella better if I hadn't already read the whole series, but it was fun.

Battle Royale - Koushun Takami I'm going to be honest here. I dont't know if I'm going to make it through this time trying either.

Is this The Vow the movie with Rachel McAdams was adapted from?
