I don’t even know what that is! *runs off to look*

Save New Boy for another time and read The Heirs. I’m working that one like a missionary- I want everyone converted!

I’m honestly shocked at how different our covers are! I’m glad you loved it – I’ve been a bit apprehensive of this one.

If We Were Villains sounds really good too! You seem to be on a reading upswing!

How funny that two recent books echoed Shakespeare. Are you going to keep the theme going and tune into Still Star Crossed tonight? I can’t decide if I want to!

It is and actually, I liked it better. The group in Secret History never felt like true friends to me. This group does.

They compared it to Tartt’s Secret History; is it similar or on par with that??

No, you were on the cutting edge for you peers! They’ve actually re-released it but I haven’t smelled it. It will be a total time bomb!

If I didn’t mention Othello, it’s not obvious so you might want to give it a try. I appreciated how easily she made the brutality of playground politics fit into a Shakespearean dram of love and jealousy.

I’d actually looked at New Boy a few times, but have grown a little weary of the Shakespeare retellings. Your thoughts on the book have me reconsidering.

I’m so glad you like If We Were Villains. It’s definitely one of my favorites so far this year.

And I definitely used to use Herbal Essences shampoo…haha! But I must have been way behind the times b/c I was using it in the 80’s.

Thanks for linking to me 🙂
