Switch to Blogger?

Posted by: harmonybookreviews on: September 27, 2009

I’ve recently started thinking that I should switch back to Blogger (I had it for like a day when I started the blog!) because so many people have commented on how much they prefer Blogger blogs and it’s easier to follow from there. I know it’d take me a while to get used to so [...]

In My Mailbox

I vaguely remember accepting this book for review a while back, though it appears I didn’t look into it enough as I should have. It looks REALLLY creepy. Like R.L. Stine blurbed it. Yeah. Hopefully it’ll be one of those super-scary books I can get through.

This also came for review and I’m sososososooooo excited to [...]

AOM Flashback: Megan Crewe

Posted by: harmonybookreviews on: September 26, 2009

An Introduction to the Teenaged Megan Crewe
Over the last few months I’ve been posting “flashbacks” on my blog–entries from my journals, written when I was between twelve and seventeen years old.  Those probably give you a far better idea of who the teenaged Megan was than I can now.    But, using them, let me [...]

Hex Hall
Three years ago, Sophie Mercer discovered that she was a witch. It’s gotten her into a few scrapes. Her non-gifted mother has been as supportive as possible, consulting Sophie’s estranged father–an elusive European warlock–only when necessary. But when Sophie attracts too much human attention for a prom-night spell gone horribly wrong, it’s her dad [...]

Mini Reviews: E. Lockhart Edition

Posted by: harmonybookreviews on: September 22, 2009

The Boyfriend List. This book was cute. But almost to the point where it became annoying. Don’t get me wrong – I liked it enough to continue on with the series, but there was just something gnawing at the back of my head as I read it. Other than that, I found Ruby to be [...]

I read this one the day after I received it. So cute! The review should be coming in a couple of weeks!

I also got 3 other books that Amazon doesn’t have covers for – Forget-Her-Nots by Amy Brecount White, The Vinyl Princess, and The Girl With Mermaid Hair.



  • Madison: I would love to be going, but I have so much homework to do tomorrow. Plus, no car, so my parents would have to come pick me up. And I don't really ha
  • Lauren: Ooh, I wish I was going, since I adore Sarah Dessen's books. Though, it's all okay, because I went to an event for three of those above authors- Lauri
  • Megan: Hey, I might be going to that! I live like 20 minutes away so it's really close but it depends if my friend can go with me.
