My thoughts:

The book is scary and creepy, the story will keep you guessing. I like the story and after reading this book, I have decided that I will never go to any remote place for a holiday.This book is currently turned into a movie and I want to see the movie once it comes out.

The book is good, but why 3 stars only? Well that's because this is just a short story. It might have been better if it wasn't so short.

Anyway, I know some people prefer short stories because they can't read hundred-pages of books (yes, i'm looking at you Liza - hope you are reading my posts!) so this is the one I am recommending for a good short story read.

Synopsis:

"Two sisters, Jennifer and Louise, return to their remote holiday cabin after a day at the seaside. But little do they know they're being surrounded. Shortly after their arrival, the girls will come face to face with THE STRANGERS OUTSIDE. When the assailants make their intentions known, things take a shockingly terrible turn and an intense battle for survival will begin."( http://vanessa-morgan.blogspot.com)

This week's question:

What is your reading suggestion this week?

Definitely it's Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Mead. The last book will come out on December 7 - Last Sacrifice and the wait is killing me! Read my review for Vampire Academy Books 1-3. I won't suggest reading my review for book 4 because of spoilers but here's my review for book 5. Currently, VA is the one of the only two series I can say my all-time favorites (the other one is The Lord of the Rings).

This week's question is:

When you read a book that you can't get into, do you stick it out and keep reading or move to your next title.

I really try my best to finish the book even if it's not really that good (especially the book I accepted for review) because I keep on hoping something's good gonna happen. Sometimes, if the book's boring, I'd get another one until I find a good book then after finishing it, I would go back to reading the boring one. And so far it only happened to me twice this year. 

If you want me to visit your blog, just leave your name and link :)

Have a great weekend!

The End is Near!

The other day (or month) I received this another wonderful great great award from The Crazy Bookworm, it's called the Blog of the Week award. Thanks to you!! Love this!

It was actually awarded to me last September 19. Yikeees! What's wrong with me? It seems that it's really hard to find "free time" nowadays. Working + kids = no "ME" time. I just realized that it's been straight three weeks since the last time I got "ME" time. Where to find this, you tell me pleeazZze! I just hope before this year ends or early December, things at work would be back to normal again.


Oh speaking of December. I read in Richelle Mead's blog that she had an interview with Charlaine Harris. They talked about the upcoming release of Last Sacrifice (CH asked RM if she would resolve the issues of love triangle in VA - aw! The usual, she didn't give any spoiler) and Ms. Harris' plans on doing two more Sookie's. Two more? Right now, I don't have any desire to read Sookie 10 (Dead in the Family). After reading a lot of negative comments/reviews, I guess I'm gonna skip reading it. To watch the interview, click here.


Richelle  Mead's Last Sacrifice is the end of the Vampire Academy series. The release date is 7 December,  THE END IS NEAR! Richelle posted this:

This is the UK cover for VA's last book. What do you think? That's cool but I still like the original cover below.

As for the movie, Pregger Entertainment has not released any more news on this. If VA is really being turned into movies, then I think I can wait, even if it takes years to finish one movie, that's okay with me. I'm just hoping they'd get perfect ones to fit the VA characters, especially Rose and Dimitri.

And speaking of Dimitri, found this wallpaper somewhere - forgot where I got this but I'm sure it's an Australian website. Nice huh?

So, 52 more days before Last Sacrifice! Can't wait!
