Book Blogging through 2011.
So, I’m going to try blogging the books that I read during this upcoming year, and hopefully into the future. I’ve always read a lot and have enjoyed books for as long as I can remember, but have never made reviews or kept a log of the books that I have read in a year. I am looking forward to doing this through tumblr & likely will be connecting it through my goodreads page, so that everything is all neat and tidy and the like.
I mostly tend to read young adult lit, but also have a penchant for mystery/thrillers and other books that have covers that catch my eye.
Feel free to contact me & ask questions or make comments.
Happy New Year!

Summary: Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander’s face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate … until she sees Ky Markham’s face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black.
The Society tells her it’s a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she’s destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can’t stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society’s infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she’s known and a path that no one else has dared to follow. - From goodreads.com
