New Blog Post

Today I am excited to be part of the Blog Tour for laura_josephsen's new book RESISTANCE.

I have many thoughts. Many of them good. ;)

Let me sum up...

Book #16: Alphabet of Dreams, by Susan Fletcher

I have this terrible habit with books where I will read the back and the blurb...but not read the inside cover flap. Usually, this is because I buy books when they come out, which means they're hard covers with dust jackets, and then I take the jacket off so it doesn't get damaged. More often, though, it's because I don't want to accidentally spoil myself for the book.

So going into "Alphabet of Dreams", I knew that the story took place in Persia, and was about a girl whose brother had prophetic dreams. ( That was kind of not what this book was about. )

8/10 for history, religion, adventure, personal growth and being set in the desert. I can't wait to track down the author's other book (because it's about Scheherazade).

I was totally going to start a new book tonight, but this one made me hungry for "Stealing Fire"...
