The Virgin Cure by Ami McKay


Even though I no longer work in Chester I am still reading their books for their book club.  This was the one for this month.  I can't say I liked it very much, but it was still interesting.  It was way easier to get through than The Birth House so that was a plus!

This book is basically about a twelve year old girl whose mother sells her to an older lady for money, and she ends up working as a personal servant I'd say.  That old lady doesn't treat her very well and she runs away and joins a house in training to become a....can't tell you in case you want to read it!

Requiem by Lauren Oliver


Ok so I ended up finishing this book last night.  I'd say she wrapped it up pretty nicely at the end, however, it does kind of leave things open in a way that if she wanted to write another book in the series, she could.  I definitely hope these books are made into movies.  Love them.  Will have to read her other books!

Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver


Book two in the Delirium trilogy.  It was pretty good, however, after she falls in love with a boy in the first book I was hoping for a different storyline in this book than what happened.  There is a bit of a cliff-hanger at the end of book one that made me want book two right away.  I'm a strong romantic and held out a lot of hope for something specific to happen in book two...which does eventually but it's just not quite right.  I'm in the middle of book three and am still holding out hope it will end how I'd like!  Hope these books get made into movies!
