I have the feeling my dry spell is coming to an end! Yesterday afternoon I read a whole book (The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne) and liked it very much. It hit a nerve. I feel there's going to be a review soon.Another novel I'm reading at the moment is Paper Towns by John Green. I've read so many enthusiastic reviews for this one that it's hard not to expect a lot from the book. But it hasn't disappointed me so far. It makes me laugh. It makes me think. It makes me wonder. It makes me scared, too. I don't want Margo to commit suicide. If she does, I... I'll have to give my copy away. I hope she doesn't.
If my reviewing break is over, I'll be able to post a review for This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen. That's another great book that made me think. Actually, it made me think so much that I'm still mulling over it two weeks after finishing it.
I do realize I'm not making much progress with my New Year's resolutions and/or my BIP goals. But never mind. I don't need another stress factor in my life at the moment.

I finished Paper Towns two days ago. I loved it more than I can say and I can't wait to compare notes with you.
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas is one I've been meaning to read. Good to know it was good!
Hi, I loved The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. Powerful yet sad.
Can't wait to read your review!
Really enjoyed Boy in the Striped Pyjamas as well. I think I read it in one sitting. Just found out that Paper Towns is not available in the UK :( After hearing so many good things about it..
