Book Review Of: Dark Life (Dark Life #1) by Kat Falls

Dark Life (Dark Life #1) by Kat Falls

I really liked this book

I don’t know how to describe it not because it’s confusing but because it’s just so changing like at first he (Ty) meets Gemma and then he is like “sigh a “topsider”!” but then he starts to get to know her and he actually likes her and then of course there is the outlaws and yeah… if you should describe it probably then this review would be full of spoilers but it is a good book

I would recommend it to you if: you like books with a little bit of action but also love and family, if you like books you think are predictable but then not at all and if you like books were you kind a can relate to what happens but not really (this book is under water for god sakes)

I gave it 4 out of 5 stars

Book Review Of: Pretties (Uglies #2) by Scott Westerfeld

Pretties by Scott Westerfeld

I liked this book I didn’t love it because the ending or right before the ending is kind a… Boring and the book is almost the same as the first one just with other persons and another town

I still want to finish this series but I don’t know how long it’s going to take because if the third book is like the first two then I might want to wait a little before reading it but I definitely want to read it because the ending in Pretties makes you want to read more but Im going to wait a bit

I will recommend this book to you if you have read Uglies (Uglies #1) by Scott Westerfeld (because that the first book in the series) and you liked it

I gave it 3 out of 5 stars

Book Review of: Attachments by Rainbow Rowell

Attachments by Rainbow Rowell

Hey guys, i just finished Attachments and it was OK but not like I expected my sister had recommended it like it was really good like it was a 5 star book but I didn’t think so it was not a book for me

i will recommend it if: you like contemporary, love and all that then read it because it’s not because it’s bad it’s just not a book for me

I don’t know how long it took for me to read I actually think it took me about 3 months because I just couldn’t get into it because I got confused by Sam, Doris, Eve, Beth,  Jennifer and all the others and I just couldn’t figure it out

But it was Ok so I gave it 2 out of 5 stars

The In The Middle Reading Challenge

The major change for this year is that books up to 450 pages will count. I realized last year that books that were from 400 pages to 450 pages did not fit into any challenge. I hope this will help people read the books they want to and not just books that complete their reading challenge goals. 

Challenge Guidelines:

• This challenge will run from January 1st, 2014 to December 31st, 2014
• All books read in 2014 count that includes bound, ebook, and audiobooks
• All books must be from 300 to 450 pages in length
• For audiobooks: look up the page number on Amazon and use that number
• You do not need to be a blogger to participate although I would appreciate if you leave a comment to tell me what level you are aiming for and a link where I can track your progress. This could be a shelf on goodreads or shelfari or any other website you can think of. I would appreciate non bloggers putting their link in the linky if they can. 
• For bloggers, grab the button and make sure to post what level you are aiming for. Then be sure to link your post in the linky below
• You don't have to review books however if you do. I would be glad to read them. You can also link your reviews in the linky below
• Have Fun (as the quote in the button says "the pages we read transport us into a whole new world". Reading is about the experience and if you do not enjoy reading you will not get the full experience of the story) I want this challenge to create little stress in your mind. 

Levels:

Leafing through the Pages: 5 books

Cruising through the Pages: 10 books
