I am currently reading Out by Natsuo Kirino.

This is her 1st novel. However, I read her 2nd novel Grotesque before this. After I finish, I'll be reading her 3rd novel Real World. Her stories are interesting.

Out is about a wife who has strangled her husband to death and asked her coworkers to help her dispose the body and cover her crime.

As for Grotesque, its about 2 girls in Tokyo trying hard to fit in. However, years later they were brutally murdered due to prostitution.

Real World is about murder as well.

I only told you some of what you'll read on the back of the books, so I am not ruining anything for anyone.

Hopefully you will enjoy reading her novels as much as I am~~

A Knight in Shining Armor was really good.....until the end. Such a big disappointment!

Right now I'm reading the second novel of the Immortals After Dark Series. No Rest for the Wicked.

^Ooo please do share your thoughts of the book when you finish. I always love to hear what people have to say about the HP books, whether they be good or bad. XD

I want to read that book too Chee! How did you like it?

I'm reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
and
Sense & Sensibilty

It's REALLY good, especially if you're into the Civil war and American history. For me, I love history, especially American history. The Civil war was a really long and terrible war that still affects us to this day (though we in general don't realize it) so I was estatic to finally read a more honest version of the war instead of a glorified version of the war. If you've seen the movie, you'll read it and think "Oh my gosh the movie changed SO MUCH STUFF". I mean, I really like the movie and I did watch it before I read the book, but the book is ten times better and there are some things in the movies I didn't mind too much about them changing, but there were some other things that annoyed me that they changed for the film. So in short, I loved the book. It was so well written and I loved how everything was described, especially when Ruby and Ada are working on Ada's land. You should really give it a read when you can.
