I don't buy a lot of books these days, but somehow, there are three books by Rainbow Rowell on my bookshelf.
I adored Fangirl, so this was a must purchase. Really, really enjoyed it--funny and dark. Rowell is very loving to this whole genre of fiction, and yet she's pretty irreverent too. Which made it delightful. I was a little disappointed that Simon never learned the full story of his background, but on the other hand, it wouldn't have been natural for him to know. Definitely recommend.

A little disappointed in this--a mystery set at an English living history site. Had high hopes that it would highlight the quirkiness of museums, and it didn't. And I couldn't really keep track of the characters. But that might be my own problem. it was okay--worth reading if you're a fan of odd British detectives, but not if you're looking for a "murder in the museum" book.
I don't do horror, but I do tend to read almost all FYA Book Club books. Liked this so much more than I expected--probably because there were layers of history wrapped up in the horror. And everyone knows I'm a sucker for history.
