Twilight and A Great and Terrible Beauty

Well, it seems that eveyone I know is obsessed by Twilight. Guess I'll have to read it after all...

The book I have actually just finished is Libba Bray's A Great and Terrible Beauty, which I enjoyed very much. However, I have a question regarding the sequel, so if anyone's read it, please do comment!

Ah, you are thinking of entering the Twilight zone. You'll either love it or hate it, but my advice would be to remove your critical hat entirely and revert to being about 14 and in love with romance. Meyer makes my feminist hackles bristle, but I still couldn't stop reading. Nice to find another book blog--mine is at http://www.scribblecitycentral.blogspot.com and I'm also one of the authors at http://www.awfullybigblogadventure.blogspot.com if you feel like pulling up a keyboard and jumping in. Best, Lucy

Do let us know what you think of Twilight! I agree with Lucy.
I'm in the last few pages of the Libba Bray book and really enjoying it.

Library Mice, hi! So gad you like the Libba Bray. I have to say, that despite really liking it, I have no desire the read the sequels... However, if there was a sequel to Julie Hearn's new one, Rowan the Strange, I'd be leaping to buy it!
