The Garden of Eve by K. L. Going


I loved The Garden of Eve. I could hardly put it down and I felt as though I was right there next to Evie and Alex/Adam. The plot was compelling and the ending was good, if not a bit unexpected. I would recommend this book to all my friends with much praise!

The Postcard by Tony Abbott


I thought this book was really good. I liked how it was a "mystery in a mystery". How the story line itself was a mystery, but the characters were reading about another mystery also. I thought it was all together very good.

Rivers of Fire by Patrick Carman


Seeing as how I didn't read the first book in the series the beginning was slightly confusing. As the story went on it got really interesting. The world of Atherton is magical and neat, and I enjoyed reading about it.
