Review: Edith - M.B. Forester-Smythe

Genre: Girly Fiction

Format: e-Book

Pages: 82

Read in: March 2012

Rating: 3.5/5 Stars

Another book that I just downloaded for free off of my Nook and I liked this one a lot better than my first. It was a quick happy cutesy read. I liked how things moved quickly and got to the point but yet still have feeling and meaning. Many of these free e-books are not so great but I did like this.

I didn't like that she was 10 years younger than her new beau but that may just be my own insecurities. Edith just seemed older. Maybe had one of those "old souls". I really enjoyed Jake and men like him do exsist and I believe quick loves do exsist too and it was nice to read a book that felt real. That always makes for a great writer. Someone who can put feelings into such a quick read. I recommed it for one of those girly quick reads that make you smile.

I read this because I just got the nook and it was a free book. It had potential but there were things that were said too quickly and I missed it. It just jumped a lot and I had to go back a few times to things that I missed. But it was still an OK read. A man goes and kidnaps kids for ransom and never really hurts the kids. You have feelings for the kidnapper and you are not really sure why. He is no real monster but kidnapping is still bad. I think that there was a great story line but was written too quickly and I think it needed more passion it in.

Review: Stella - Mirriam Smyth (eBook)

Why I read it: Got a Nook Tablet (it was free)

Rating: 1/5 Stars

This is one of those judge-a-book-by-its-cover kinda thing. I just got a Nook Tablet and I wanted to try it out, so I got some free books and this one sounded OK and it was short so it made sense at the time. First, let me start with the Nook. I gotta say I am not a fan of reading electronically. I like my physical book but that's a little off. Second, about the book: well, it was just boring and fast and straightforward. These can be good qualities sometimes but in this case it really didn't work. It was so just kinda flat and boring. I am not a writer and I think this would have come from my own hands, which isn't saying much about my writing abilities but like I said I am not a writer and I am actually pretty bad at it but now I know I am not alone.
