Favorite Books: Scott Pilgrim volumes 1-4 by Bryan Lee O’Malley, Archangel by Sharon Shinn, and Pinky Pye by Eleanor Estes
Let’s discuss HOW AWESOME Scott Pilgrim is: So awesome. If you got excited by the movie which came out recently, you should really read the graphic novels. It’s not like they take long and they are hilarious. There are actually 6 of them, but 5 and 6 came out over the summer so I hadn’t read them back in April. The fifth one was not as good as the others, but what can you do.
Archangel (even though I pronounce it wrong all the time) is excellent. I keep meaning to read more in that series. I’m getting around to it, seriously. But this first one, totally worth reading if you like huge epic world and alternate reality angels.
Pinky Pye…cute cute cute. Pinky Pye is a kitten the Pye’s pick up on vacation. I love this family. Possibly more than the Moffett’s. After all, the Pye’s have more animals. =)
Other Worthies: the 39 Clues series, books 4-8, Succubus Shadows by Richelle Mead, Bite Marks by Jennifer Rardin, I Am Not A Serial Killer by Dan Wells, and Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan. There was a lot of good books this month!
Least Favorite Books: A Foxy Old Woman’s Guide to Traveling Alone by Jay Ben-Lester. Snort. I read weird things sometimes.
Quote: “…they both smelled the air and then they continued with their conversation. Is there anything more pleasant than to sit in the evening time on a little porch under a large and rustling tree and talk with your brother?, Rachel wondered. And no one calling anyone nuts.” From Pinky Pye by Eleanor Estes.
