Dawn's bookshelf: read

The Liar
3 of 5 stars
I so wanted to like this book. I'm not sure that I did. However, I learned a plethora of new, sophisticated British words. Perhaps I missed the point, well...no I didn't, it just took too many words to get there.
The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest
2 of 5 stars

Eat more veggies + drink more water + exercise more = longer life.

Blood Rites
4 of 5 stars
Dresden is always a good read.
The Girl Who Chased the Moon
3 of 5 stars
Not sure why I read this. Meh.
