**The Royalty Rules Reading Challenge**

Oh My God! I just joined The Royalty Rules Reading Challenge!!
The Magic of Ink is hosting it, and here's what Ink Mage said(I'm quoting, don't worry Ink Mage!):

"From February 1st – April 30th, 2008 I’ll be hosting my first reading challenge, Royalty Rules. (Yes, I know, terrible pun.)

Rules: Read two, three, or four books of whatever genre you choose (fiction or non-fiction), whether you want to read about historical kings, modern queens, or fairytale princesses. The only parameter is that the books are about a royal personage, although not necessarily as the main character. It’s perfectly all right if you want to read a book about, say, the queen’s lady-in-waiting, as long as the story incorporates the rise and/or fall of a crowned head, or a sovereign’s entire life.

Crossover with other challenges if you like.Young adult or children’s titles are encouraged, but not required."
What I'm planning to read? I got some recommondations with friends, but mostly, I just "stole" good books from reviews that I thought would be good. Is that bad?
Go to the Ink Mage's Royalty Rules Reading Challenge site and sign up! Come on! I expect to see you there on the list!

Twilight


"Softly he brushed my cheek, then held my face between his marble hands. 'Be very still,' he whispered, as if I wasn't already frozen. Slowly, never moving his eyes from mine, he leaned toward me. Then abruptly, but very gently, he rested his cold cheek against the hollow at the base of my throat."

As Shakespeare knew, love burns high when thwarted by obstacles. In Twilight, an exquisite fantasy by Stephenie Meyer, readers discover a pair of lovers who are supremely star-crossed. Bella adores beautiful Edward, and he returns her love. But Edward is having a hard time controlling the blood lust she arouses in him, because--he's a vampire. At any moment, the intensity of their passion could drive him to kill her, and he agonizes over the danger. But, Bella would rather be dead than part from Edward, so she risks her life to stay near him, and the novel burns with the erotic tension of their dangerous and necessarily chaste relationship.

This was an amazing book!! It had a little place in my heart for it, kind of like a little "Pandora's Box". At the very beginning, I didn't quite understand, but as the romance and the action raged on and on in my head, the picture finally became real: It was a story about finding true love.

Haha...(red) for blood.

The Purpose of this Blog

**Haha**

I know this is kind of corny or boring, but I just have to put this down. The purpose of this blog is for book reviews and also for me. I had blogs before, but I was never into them. Here's my little confession:
I'm addicted to Facebook! Hopefully I'll be able to get addicted to this once again!
