New Books!



The Angel's Game - Carlos Ruiz Zafon: I loved loved loved Shadow of the Wind and Angel's Game is it's prequel. Can't wait!

Treasure Island - Robert Louis Stevenson: I read Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in college and really liked it. Treasure Island should be a fun summer read.

  1. Treasure Island surprised me by being a lot more fun than I thought it'd be. I don't know why I assumed it wouldn't be fun (I mean, pirates?!), but there you do :P

    I've yet to read any Zafon, but I've heard great things. Enjoy your new books!

  2. I read 'Treasure Island' a few months back for the first time. I found it quite enjoyable! I think you will really like how the story plays out. Intrigue, suspense, and plot line lends to a great story. Being a shorter story however, you really don't quite get into the main characters head. Still a great read overall!

  3. I didn't realize The Angel's Game was a prequel when I added it to my challenge list. Should i read Shadow of the Wind first?

  4. I"m not sure if you should read it first but you should read it at some point! It's so good.

    I mean it is the prequel but it was published after Shadow of the Wind. I think you should be fine either way. I'm not sure that the stories intertwine all that much, but I'll let you know after I start it!
