We’re all heading to The Tower for pizza. I don’t remember last year’s Valentine’s dinner there, but the year before was a hoot.

What a lovely and amazing book! I found myself relating to so much of her experiences -- as much as I could, having cats and a cockatiel, and not an owl. Thank you for this recommendation. I read this in two days and I loved it. OMG, I just finished this about five minutes ago. What a lovely and amazing book!

It should be no surprise that I have a vampire novel in my top ten. But the complete horror of this book makes it stand out. Vampires to me aren’t that scary, but the inner workings of some ‘normal’ people can be more repulsive and shocking than we imagine or suspect. Lindqvist takes you to the edge of shocking and leaves you uncomfortable. Read the full review here.

Yeah. Couldn't get into the Sandman graphic novels. Read the whole series, waiting for the moment I'd fall in love. There were parts I liked, sure, but I just missed something, I suppose. *sigh* So you know how I adore every novel/novella/whatever that NG has ever written? Yeah.

And reading about someone loving and losing a pet isn’t very interesting; unless the pet is a really cool one…like an owl. O’Brien gives Wesley the Owl every single part of her life. Every. Single. Part. How can one not enjoy a love story about true soul mates? Even if your soul mate is an owl? Read the full review here.

If I Am Missing or Dead by Janine Latus – One of two non-fictions on my list this year. Latus gives us a haunting tale of her own paralleling it with her sister, Amy’s, disappearance and subsequent death. Both sisters spiral down into abusive relationships and self-loathing. One comes up for air and gets to tell their tale, the other winds up dead. Simply chilling. Read the full review here [...] […] .

Cinderella as an 1920’s flapper girl, Rapunzel as a long-haired hippie of the 1970’s and Little Red, a brave little guy who gets the wolf to burp out Grandma with ginger ale. The stories and pictures amaze again and again. Read full review here. [...] […] Ms. Roberts, along with her illustrator brother, give us three charming renditions of some old classics.
