Two Dogs and a Book

The Rose Garden by Susanna Kearsley My rating: 3 of 5 stars Loved the story! The author described the landscape so beautifully; I want to go there! Love all the little nuggets about Irish beliefs. I also like the surprising last chapters... did not see this coming. View all my reviews

Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor My rating: 4 of 5 stars I really liked it, but I just feel like I have been robbed since this is the first book of a series and I will have to wait for the next one to come up before knowing what happens next. Ugghhh!!! It is written for young people, but adults will enjoy it too. I would normally not be tempted to read such a book, but the reviews on goodreads.com were so good; I decided to give it a try. The critics were right; the book was good, but now I have to wait for book number two to know what's next. :| View all my reviews
