More About Books

So this week I have been reading a new series of books by an author I have never read before. The series is called Abram's Daughters and they are all about one man's family just after World War II. The family also happens to be Amish. At first, I was sort of thinking, Now how can I go and read five books about Amish people? Wont that be boring? Well I was in for a big surprise. As soon as I finished the first book, I immediately had to start reading the next one! These books haven't let me rest for a whole week. The gripping storyline and all-too real characters simply got me hooked! Now I am almost done with the fifth one and I still can't put it down! So, if you are looking for some more books to read while waiting for Breaking Dawn to come out, go get the Abram's Daughters series by Beverly Lewis!

Better Than Twilight

When I read Twilight about two years ago, I would have laughed at any person who told me there was a better romance to be read. Twilight is among one of the best books I have ever read and there are millions of devoted fans out there who would readily agree with me. However, I just finished Stephenie Meyer's latest book this week, The Host, and I have to admit, it is even better than Twilight! I would have never thought I would say such a thing, but Stephenie Meyer brought a whole new light to sci-fi romances. Her main character, an alien soul named Wanderer (aka Wanda), is such a complex character, especially because she inhabits Melanie Stryder's body and Melanie is still there!
Now, if anyone reading this blog hasn't read The Host, go and read it now! Especially if you are a fan of Stephenie Meyer. Her writing is just as amazing, if not better, than anything else she has written before.

About Time

I have finally decided to join the blogging community. I know, about time right? My mom is very into it right now so I thought, Hey, she can help me get set up! I'm a bit technology challenged, to tell the truth. But she showed me a few things and here I am, with my very own blog!
I am also now a high school graduate! I was definitely ready to be done with high school. I never have to experience all the drama, gossip, and high hormone levels of high school again, for which I am grateful. The only question is, does it get better or worse in college? I guess time will tell. I have an entire summer of working and spending time with my adorable boyfriend, Jason, before I must journey to brave the campus of USU. And while I can't wait to be out on my own, I'm certainly glad I have a few months before that new adventure.
