The Fire: A Novel by Katherine Neville

Adventurous, Epic, Interesting
A Follow Up Let Down

I had higher expectations after being sucked into The Eight. A good story, but didn't live up to my wishes.

The Help by Kathryn Stockett

Insightful, Inspiring, Interesting
I needed no Help being sucked into this book

This story grabbed me right away. The "Help" were powerful in their own ways when they could be. I loved that Skeeter did what she could do in that situation, in the process bringing out her own power. The mother issues that were brought up left me thinking long afterwards.

In a Perfect World: A Novel by Laura Kasischke
 
Fantastic, Life Changing, Adventurous
Bad taste in my mouth

I have to admit, I had to finish the book. The story did hold me, but I kept waiting for some brightness somewhere and the only place I found it was in the change in the family relationship. But I did not like how I felt after the story was finished.

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

Dramatic, Insightful, Beautiful
slow to start

Once I got through the slow start, I was hooked by this book. Written from a different WWII perspective than I'd previously read, I was in tears at the end.
