Black Hole Reviews

Welcome to another edition of Black Hole Reviews! As I slog through my backed up reader, I am finding so much I want to read. I am noticing that I'm drawn to this Eva Ibbotson's books, even though I haven't read a single one yet.  Perhaps I'm just in a romantical mood? Anyway, check out these appealing book and these awesome/sucky reviews.

• A Company of Swans by Eva Ibbotson reviewed by Bookish in a Box  (historical fiction/romance)
• Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles reviewed by Angieville   (contemporary YA)
• Everlasting by Angie Frazier reviewed by Brenda Loves Boos  (historical fiction/romance plus adventure)
• A Countess Below Stairs by Eva Ibbotson reviewed by Bookish in a Box   (historical fiction/romance with a ex-aristocrat in hiding)
• Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier reviewed by It's All About Books (fantasy)
• Sea by Heidi R. Kling reviewed by Good Book & Wine  (contemporary YA)
• Inside Out by Maria V. Snyder reviewed by Layers of Thought (dystopian novel for middle graders with a strong female character. A possible introduction to sci-fi.)
• Tyger Tyger by Kersten Hamilton reviewed by Brenda Loves Books (YA fantasy whose synopsis sounds interesting, but the positive review is what made this one more appealing.)

Black Hole Reviews: Sucked in by YOUR Reviews

I thought it would be fun to put up a weekly (or whatever) list of the books that I read about - on all of the wonderful book blogs I know - that most sucked me in. These are the books that I immediately added to my Goodreads list so I wouldn't forget their names. These are the books that I've been thinking about this last week and wondering when I'd be able to get my hands on them.

(And thanx to my husband for another mind-blowing button whipped up on the fly!)
