I spent so many years missing out on this beautiful soul. I hope that I can meet her in the next life.

When sick, there are not many comforts as great as a good book and a warm puppy. This book exceeded expectations. Though its magic was unable to heal my cold, it was a great comforter.

I think I added this book to the list based purely on the cover, but I could be wrong. Either way, I am enjoying it immensely.

Gillian Flynn is always a hit or miss with me, and this one was definitely a miss.

I lost focus for a while, but The Dark Tower series is pretty interesting so far. Book three down, and now I can use it to play this sweet new game that I received for my birthday!

I'm such a sucker for YA fantasy, and this did not disappoint. Don't go in to it expecting Shakespeare. It reads like fan fiction, and I gobbled it up as such. Fantastic characters and a familiar plot with some fun twists make this book 100% worth your time.

I read with the brain of an English teacher and the heart of a teenager. Sometimes, the two don't agree, and the heart usually wins.

I enjoyed the whole series. My only complaint is that after so many trials and tribulations, that sure is a pretty bow that everything is wrapped in at the end. Seems a little false.

I can't tell if I love or hate the cover of the third book.

Slam | Nick Hornby

I always love Nick Hornby books, but I love them extra when the audiobook is narrated by this stud. What a lovely story. Realistic, yet crazy. Hornby never ceases to amaze! (Neither does Nicholas Hoult while we're at it)

Roland's adventure continued, and I am still 100% on board. I can't wait to start the third in the series.

Goodness gracious, Stephen King sure does love his introductions, prefaces, prologues, and anything else he can cram in before the story actually begins.

I will always read a Hornby novel. I would listen to ANYTHING if you tell me that my love, Nicholas Hoult, will be reading it.

The audiobook version of this book was spectacularly fun and silly. Amy Poehler is what I want in an author.

A Wizard of Earthsea | Ursula K. Le Guin

Every book that I have ever read by Ursula Le Guin makes me feel love. I cannot help but hug them to me and cherish their every word. I am always worried that this love will fade, but it grows with every book, and this was no exception. I cannot wait to read the next in the series!

Battered and well-loved Le Guin paperbacks are addictive and inspiring. Just her name on the cover could make me buy anything.

"what we search for in fiction is not so much reality but the epiphany of truth." Are you kidding me? I am three pages in, and she blows me out of the water with this gem! I might tattoo that line somewhere.

Usually I refuse to read things that other people choose for me, but when Emma Watson's feminist book club chooses this gem, you follow along. I do not regret this decision. It's gorgeous this far.

I've read a lot of Stephen King over my 31 years on earth, but I think that I would have read a lot more if I had started here. His work always leaves me feeling perfectly guilty and hungry for more.
