Peter and the Starcatchers

I enjoyed this book. I thought it was suspenseful and intriguing. I also liked that fact that it wasn't so predictable. I always wondered how Peter had come to be immortal and able to fly. It was a great explanation of that. It is a great read for males and females.

Recent Read

I read this book yesterday. I love getting books for gifts for Christmas because I have time to read them.



Princess Academy by Shannon Hale

I enjoyed this book. I found that I identify in many ways with the main character. I also like how the author stressed that fact that things are do not always have the explanations that we contrive. I also enjoyed the fact that the heroine was a female. I am not a feminist by any stretch of the imagination. However, I do believe that stories like this are important. It is a great read for girls.
