So, after missing last Monday, I decided that I needed to redeem myself in some way. This is just a classic. Maybe he/she should think about trying another instrument... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCPj4JPbKtA

Review: Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion
R is having a no-life crisis—he is a zombie. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he is a little different from his fellow Dead. He may occasionally eat people, but he’d rather be riding abandoned airport escalators, listening to Sinatra in the cozy 747 he calls home, or collecting souvenirs from [...]
Review: Shattered Veil (The Diatous Wars) by Tracy E. Banghart

Review: The Coldest Girl In Coldtown by Holly Black

Viral Video Monday

Review: Better Off Friends by Elizabeth Eulberg

Review: Catch a Falling Star by Kim Culbertson
A deliciously charming novel about finding true love . . . and yourself. Nothing ever happens in Little, CA. Which is just the way Carter Moon likes it. But when Hollywood arrives to film a movie starring former child star turned PR mess Adam Jakes, everything changes. Carter's town becomes a giant glittery set and, [...]
Book to Screen: If I Stay by Gayle Forman
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9hZ40TJ0zs ~*~*~*~*~ I've never read If I Stay by Gayle Forman (mostly because I've heard that it'll make me cry). I know I shouldn't rely on the trailer, but it looks like a good one! I'm definitely jumping onto this bandwagon late, though... Have any of you read it? Would you recommend it? Did you [...]
