Good books!

      I have a few new books to mention and recommend.  First book is The Help, by Kathryn Stockett. It is a perfect example of historical fiction at its best, and what kind of impact it can actually have on people.  It is about several African-American house workers and one woman who writes about their lives.  It gives the reader one of the best insights into the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s I have ever seen.  A really good read.  You instantly like the characters from the beginning.  No warming up necessary.
      Second book I read was Beautiful Creatures, by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl.  I enjoyed most of it, but would like others to let me know how they liked the end.  Not saying anything else about that.  For the most part, it was a good read.  Try it for yourselves!
       Finally, I am now reading The Dark Divine, by Bree Despain.  So far I really like it.  I still am trying to figure out what kind of secret Daniel is and has.  He is something really evil - or is he?  Very good so far.  I will post the results soon.
