The Goddess Interpreted-Review

If you have not read Aimee Carter's first book The Goddess Test I highly suggest you do so. The Goddess Interrupted was an amazing second installment.  Kate and Henry create a thick tension that you just have to keep reading about, and the ever envious Calliope (Hera) brings the vapid rudeness. The drama is on an entirely new level. I love the Greek mythology, its some of the best I have ever read. The twists & turns of this plot had me on the edge of my seat. Aimee is so talented & I can not sing her praises enough.  She left me in great anticipation  for Goddess Inheritance, is it really coming out in 2012 too? 

Shifting-Review

Maggie is different, and she has struggled with it all her life. A counselor takes a chance on her by sending her to live with a strong willed old lady he knows in New Mexico. Maggie's life will forever be changed, when she meets this lady, starts a life in this town, and falls for a boy named Bridger. Her mysterious gift will be brought to light, and maybe life will be worth living for her. Shifting was the first book I read this year. Bridger and Maggie were two very complex moving characters. I instantly fell in love with them, and their story. I also loved the New Mexican town Bethany used as the setting, it was described perfectly, and it made want to visit there someday. Shifting had amazing prose, and a flow that made me comfortable. The characters were realistic & passionate, and I loved the conclusion, it was fast paced & fulfilling. Bethany is incredibly talented, and I look forward to reading more by her in the future.
