Sorry I’m a bit late, but after the semester ended I had to hurry up and scrape together Christmas and the whirlwind has finally subsided. But, I read the book before the semester started so I was able to get this put together. I’m sorry it’s a bit vague, but it’s been a few months [...]

After reading the reviews here, I’m thinking that maybe sometime in the future I might decide to read this book, possibly. I read about six months worth of books in my week break between the Summer and Fall semesters. I’m really glad I chose to do that because I have been swamped this semester. I [...]

I actually enjoyed this book enough that I borrowed the rest of the series from my library to read. It honestly surprised me, I figured that I was going to think it was another teeny bopper book & that I was going to hate it. Though I do admit that I don’t really [...]

First off, I am sorry that this is so late. I don’t have any excuse besides I was just not up to writing it, I still don’t feel like it, but if I don’t do it now it never will get done & I want it done. So as soon as I get [...]

I enjoyed reading Uglies, although it was definitely written with a younger audience then myself in mind. I like futuristic stories like this one and although it was on the simplistic side I still found it interesting enough to continue reading the series.
At first, did you hope Tally would get the operation? When did you [...]

I read this book a few years ago. I meant to read it again for this club but I got distracted by Dan Brown’s new novel and read it instead. I’m a bit fuzzy on the details so I’m going to skip the questions and just talk basics. I do remember enjoying this book and [...]

I just started reading Meg Cabot earlier this year, along with Size 12 is Not Fat and all the other Heather Wells novels. I’m not usually a big fan of what I would call “Chick Lit”, but I enjoy Cabot’s writing style. Plus, her novels tend to have a bit of mystery mixed in a [...]

1. If you could jump right into any novel with Ms. Nakajima, which novel would you choose to visit?
I would choose to visit so many of them. I love love love to read, and always daydream about what I’m reading if it’s a book that I’m really interested in. I think something with magic, kings [...]

Ok, this book was not what I thought it was going to be about. Though I do feel that Miss Mills is a little under-estimated. It was a good book, for a chick-lit (my father’s words). I do have to admit I figured out the mystery before the author told us, but [...]

Lily endures excruciating pain in order to have her feet bound. What reasons are given for this dangerous practice?
To make her marriable to society. It is a horrible practice that thankfully isn’t still practiced.
Did See’s descriptions of footbinding remind you of any Western traditions?
Yep, can anyone say wearing heels, bras, & uncomfortable clothing just [...]
