Burning BlueBurning Blue by Paul Griffin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was a surprise. I normally don't go for this type, mainly sticking to paranormal and dystopian but the synopsis intrigued me. I was lucky enough to win an arc of this book on Goodreads. To me it starts out kind of slow, but picks up from there and you're always questioning yourself trying to piece together who did it and why. This book touches on some touchy subjects but not in a bad way. The main characters, Nichole and Jay, were very likable. To me this book will leave you guessing till the end.

Insurgent (Divergent, #2)Insurgent by Veronica Roth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a book I was waiting for. I loved Divergent so I knew I had to read this book. Is this book better than Divergent? No, but I do believe that it is just as good. The plot had a good pace, it was easy for me to keep up with what was going on. And the ending was just wow, I usually don't like books that end in cliffhangers but this just left me wanting to read the next book right now.

Bookstore Closes

My local bookstore or more specifically the one nearest to my home is in the process of going out of business. It's a sad day since this bookstore is one I could actually walk to.

Right now they are having a going out of business sale, which is increasing the foot traffic in the store. I went today, I had some book trade-in credit with them that I needed to use.

I picked up a used copy of Matched by Ally Condie in paperback.

This is a sad time, this is the third bookstore to close in this general area. RIP Well Loved Books.
