It's been snowing like an insane beast. It started on Saturday afternoon, and it snowed almost right through till Monday morning. I don't think I'm exaggerating, either. Now we have a little under 2 feet, and it doesn't look like it's going to go away very soon! My dad actually went out and got winter tires on Sunday. They're amazing! :)
Ok, here are some good websites for books:
www.shurtugal.com (the Eargon & Eldest website).
www.alisoncroggon.com/fantasy/ (for the Pellinor series).
www.councilofelrond.com (the best Lord of the Rings website!!)
www.unicornchronicles.com (blog for the Unicorn Chronicles-- these are meant for younger people, but I still like them).
Got to go.
May the stars watch over you.

Trickster’s Choice, by Tamora Pierce.
I did promise book reviews!
Trickster's Choice is an amazing book. It’s about Aly, a 16-year-old girl who wants to be a spy. But her Dad, a spymaster, wont let her. Her chance comes unexpectedly when she is captured by pirates and is sold in the Copper Isle as a slave. Through a series of rather odd events, she starts spying for the natives of the Isle, the raka, who are at long last rebelling against their old oppressors, the luarin.
I really admire Aly. She is strong, brave, funny, loyal and determined. She is someone who you could trust with your life. She is not perfect, and sometimes makes mistakes, but that just makes her more real. I really like the writing style of this book. I also like how the book deals with her internal struggles as well as her external ones.
Will Aly survive? Will the raka win their rebellion? Read the book to find out, for goodness sake! :D
Sequel: Trickster’s Queen

Greetings all!
Hello, all! This is my first post on my crazy new blog! :) In this blog, I will mostly be talking about fantasy books, because that's what I love to read. But that's not all! There will be pictures, links to cool sites, and rambling. I'm still learning, so please bear with me!
May the stars watch over you.
