I would also like to mention that i recently finished reading a new(ish) fantasy fictional trilogy that was utterly & completely AMAZING and that i would love to tell you all about. ..."


That sounds awesome! O.O I love fantasy books! I'm going to have to take a look now. (I don't know if it's actually about elves, but I love elves...):)

I just read Memoirs of a Geisha and The Iron King. Both are amazing! (The Iron King's slightly addictive.) Reading The Scorpion Races at the minute, not sure what to think of it though!

It IS about Elves!! and they are so different..nothing like the Elves in Lord of the Rings & not the Elf that you imagine as friend of Father Christmas, no they are new!

That sounds good to me, I love it when things are a bit different!
It's on my want-to-read shelf now. :D

Is Silver Kiss good?"


It is good. Even though it is about vampires, it is different, you know??
Usually, it is all the same but not this book.
Like Jessica's Guide To Dating On The Dark Side. It is also about vampires but it is different form what we read about vampires nowadays.

I know what you mean! I read Julie Kagawa's Immortal Rules book, it's about vamps, but totally different from the Twilighty, obsessive fangirling vampire stuff, you know?!

message 25: by Sadie (new)

Sadie Forsythe I'm reading a darkish fantasy, The Shadowed Valley by Y.I. Lee . It's pretty good so far, but I didn't realise that it is a religious novel when I started it. I'm not too sure how I feel about that.

I thought so too, it took me a couple chapters to get used to the constant metaphors, but I found I really liked it by the end. And the story itself was great!

yeah, it's like the constant metaphors make it really pretty but also really intense..i don't know it's hard to describe, but i do like it. And I'm only on chapter 12, but i like the story so far!
