It was an ok book, I've been meaning to try dog stories for awhile, thought I'd start out with this one first. :sweatdrop:

A really good dog book is Where the Red Fern Grows (if you haven't read it yet of course)   Really good but really sad.

Anywho

Right now I'm reading "Emma" by Jane Austen (my favorite author) and "The Crown and the Crucible" by Michael Phillips and Judith Pella.
"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power."

"They say that guns dont kill people, people kill people. Well I think the gun helps. If you just stood there and yelled BANG, I dont think youd kill too many people. "

"Yesterday I dared to struggle. Today I dare to win."

Girl With A Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier - It's an awesome book, it blew me away. It brought back some SyaoranxSakura fanfic moments. I love the style, and the detail is wonderful.

Hidden Treasures by Nora Roberts.

not that i know of. i havent checked amazon lately, so i dont even know if theres a title. but i cant wait, especialy after the way book 12 ended ... O.o

EDIT: ok there IS a product page on amazon, but the title they have for is rumored to be false. the real title wont be revealed till closer to its release date, shich is acotber 1st, (the fake title is "The End" and the covor loks funny. its just a black spot in that arch window thing and it says something like "...Too dreadful to picture" or something like htat.
\and aparently, acording to some forum posts (when did amazon get forums??) lemony snicket's real name is Daniel Handler.
