  1. A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness is an amazing story! And will make you cry buckets if you have ever witnessed anyone you love suffer from cancer or other diseases/illnesses. It is a must read!

  2. Ooh, lots of good reads here! I’m especially looking forward to reading your reviews on A Monster Calls (I *love* Patrick Ness) and As I Wake sounds really interesting. I haven’t read the Monster High series either, but it sounds intriguing.

    Smiles!

  3. Love Elizabeth Scott. I think if anyone could do memory loss well, and make it believable, it’s her.

    Have you read anything by her? I think you’d love her style.
