read 12 books in 2008

I will continue to read this year, but the goal of 12 was accomplished.

I loved this book! Great character development, with enough science to keep people like me happy, and awesome storytelling.

This book was sent to me from Library Thing to review. It took me a long time to finish this book because frankly, it wasn’t awesome. It took forever to get into, and I felt that there wasn’t enough character development for me.

I was given this book by my Weight Watchers meeting leader at a meeting 2 weeks ago. It has lots of little tips instead of traditional chapters. I will continue to read it whenever I need help or feel discouraged about my weight loss.

Another ALA most challenged book. I don’t remember reading this when I was young. It was still good though.

I loved this book when I was young and I loved at again now. Another ALA most challenged book.

I really liked this book. It provides me some new perspectives on Iranians and what they had to go through becoming an Islamic state and living in America. I gave it to an Iranian friend of mine who had heard about it. When she finished it, we will have lots of fun discussing it.

This is one of the prequels to the Alice series and another ALA most challenged book. This book was quite tame, so I think it’s the original Alice series that got this on the list.

One of the ALA most challenged books. I liked it and didn’t understand why it would be challenged.

I read this while I was in India and liked it. There were some assumptions made by the authors that made it a little tough at some times. I didn’t always know the people or events they were referring to but it still worked for me.
