Why am I starting a book blog?




I am an avid reader. I've loved to read since I was a little girl and try to pass that love of reading to others. When I finish a book and love it, I tell everyone I know about it. Then I thought why not have a blog of all the books I read and rate them as I go. Then I can give my blog address out to everyone I know. I hope you come along for the ride. I'm sure we won't always agree on what we like but I hope maybe I can save some people time on what to read. Feel free to write comments after I blog, I would love to hear what you thought of the book. Happy reading!!!

The Usual Rules by Joyce Maynard

It's about a thirteen year girl Wendy who lives in Brooklyn with her mom, stepdad and little brother. Everything changes when September 11 happens and her mother doesn't come home from work. The book is about how she deals with her loss by moving to California with her real father who she doesn't really know. While living there she makes new friends and slowly deals with her grief. It was pretty good, kept my attention but wasn't necessarily something I'd recommend.
