Blood Stone

Today I practically did nothing but read. Like seriously, nothing but read. I got to finish the book I need for the Independent reading program call Blood Stone. I've read better books, but I wouldn't say it was the worst I've ever seen. I found it was hard to get into, and it was hard to love the characters. If you have a one novel story, it is generally hard to love the characters the way you would if it was a series, but still, 400 pages could be a lot. But the scenes were constantly changing from past to present, the narator changed from first person to third, so on and so forth. The author didn't really give a lot of dialogue, and the book was filled with descriptions of the scenes. Without a lot of dialogue, it's actually really hard to really get to know the characters. The ending was very disappointing, but I won't say it because then it'll be a total spoiler for people who wants to read the book.

Quote of the day:
"Wear the old coat and buy the new book." Austin Phelps

I would get a new coat and just get the book at the library or from someone else. Up until this day, I have not bought a book on my own, and I own none of my favourite books.
