Just started Specials...

I just started reading Specials--finally!! I don' t really like Tally right now. For those of you who read it...Did you feel frustrated with Tally and Shay to begin with? Does it get better (I know I asked, but I don't want to know, really I just want to finish it and hope it gets better!)?

Just finished Goodnight, Nobody
Currently listening to Inkheart

Happy reading!!

Both Sides Of Time

I just finished reading Both Sides Of Time by Caroline B. Cooney. It was actually, sadly, the first book I've had a chance to read all summer! I couldn't put in down, though. It is the first book in a series of four. The description right off the back of the book says, "Imagine changing centuries- and making things worse, not better, on both sides of time. Imagine being involved in two love triangles in two different centuries. Imagine discovering that, no matter which direction you travel in time, you must abandon someone you love. Meet fifteen-year-old Annie Lockwood, a romantic living in the wrong century. When she travels back a hundred years and lands in 1895, a time when privileged young ladies wear magnificent gowns, attend elegant parties, and are courted by handsome gentlemen, Annie at lasts finds romance. But she is a trespasser in time. Will she choose to stay in the past? And if she does, will she be allowed to stay?" The beginning is a little hard to understand, but once you get past it, you will just want to keep reading to find out what will happen next. It's really unpredictable and told through different characters' perspectives. I would definitely recommend it.
