The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner

This site will be live from noon EST on June 7th until midnight EST on July 5th.

After reading this (for almost 5 hours) online, I definitely feel a lot of sympathy towards the newborns who were merely pawns in Victoria's quest for revenge. After reading this you will care about what happens to her, even though as a Twilight fan you'll already know the outcome...a tragic end for Bree. Maybe you'll be left feeling, as Meyer was, that Bree's outcome should have been different. She deserved better. It was amazing to get Bree's side of the story to see her have the same struggles as twilight favorites such as love, devotion and pure confusion as well as the all new newborn experience which Bella didn't go through. It actually makes me appreciate Edward a lot more for his compassion; and love Bree as a strong-willed intelligent character. It's a shame it couldn't end well for her, but knowing this Stephanie Meyer did something quite amazing in that she brought the story to a place where you knew it was going to happen, Bree knew it was going to happen and you kind of wanted that for her, that final peace as the truth becomes known to the ones that need to know and yet again love is avenged.

After finishing this, I went back and re-read Bree's main scene in Eclipse (p. 568-578 in paperback), and I loved reading the story from both perspectives. Getting inside Bree's head was really interesting, while it was also great to go back and revisit the scene through Bella's eyes. I also enjoyed Bree's exchanges with Carlisle, Esme and Edward. Mostly Edward. I've missed him since the books ended. Meyer really needs to release Midnight Sun sometime soon!

A brilliant read and an amazing brilliant character! Another good short book by Stephenie Meyer to read!

The Horse and His Boy

The Horse and His Boy (Chronicles of Narnia, #3)

Another wonderful part of the Chronicles of Narnia series. This book takes place during the reigns of Kings Peter and Edmund and Queens Susan and Lucy. It is only indirectly a story about the Pevensies but is more about the affairs in the neighboring kingdoms of Archenland and Calormen (although the story is in essence a story of the saving of Narnia from a Calormeen invasion). For me, the most striking theological argument of the novel is the influence of Aslan in the lives of people who do not even believe in his existence. It is the least engaging of the series, initially, but after the first several chapters the novel becomes just as quick to read as the other delightful Chronicles.

This book is a different style than the other books, because Aslan, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy's roles were not as prominent and obvious in the beginning. This is a great example about God uses the weak to shame the wise. The main character of the story, a boy named Shasta is outwardly a run-away slave, while Rabadash is the Tashbaan prince. However, Shasta (or Cor) has way more character and courage than Rabadash. This is a great story with a great but not too predictable ending, especially...more This book also has different style than the other books, because Aslan, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy's roles were not as prominent and obvious in the beginning.

You really should read this book!

Favorite Quote: "Rabadash," said Aslan. "Take heed. Your doom is very near, but you may still avoid it. Forget your pride (what have you to be proud of?) and your anger (who has done you wrong?) and accept the mercy of these good kings." (P. 216)

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Chronicles of Narnia, #2)

One of my favorite book of C.S Lewis. I chose to read the entire series because I loved the movies so much. I enjoyed reading this book very much. The story is quite endearing. I would recommend everyone to read it because it is very interesting and it kept me wanting to read more so that I could find out what was going to happen next. This is the book about four young kids who find an amazing adventure in a wardrobe in a new world. It starts out with the young Lucy finding Narnia in the Wardrobe and a fawn, Tumus. The novel continues until all four siblings--Lucy, Edmund, Peter, and Susan--are fighting the White Witch for Narnia's freedom. This book demonstrates the harshness of not listening to family and friends and the amazing gift of forgiveness. I recommend this book for all ages, children to adults.

I love Aslan!!!
