About Me

My Photo
Melissa (Avid Reader)
I love books and I'll read just about anything. I tend to read a lot of literary fiction and classics, but I'm always looking for recommendations. I'm in my 20s and have been reading for as long as I can remember. My Rating System (I rate on my personal reaction to the book): ★ = one star ☆ = 1/2 star ★★★★★: A new favorite, a must-read ★★★★: Liked it a lot ★★★: Nothing special, but OK ★★: Not my cup of tea ★: Waste of time

I am a castle nut. And of course there is a castle in almost every town in Eastern Europe. Love it.

(I see you are reading the Chaos Walking trilogy. I am halfway through The Ask and the Answer. OMG!!! So good!)

Winda Tiodang - Thanks for stopping by.

Diane - The amazing thing is that it was just built in the last 10 years or so. The owner hired tradesmen from Europe and built it in California.

Sandy - I'm at the very end of the first book and I'm completely hooked!
