The Puppy That Came for Christmas: How a Dog Brought One Family the Gift of Joy - Megan Rix

Date Started: 12/27/11
Date Finished: 12/28/11

One-Word Summary: Puppies!

This one was a stocking gift and needless to say I figured I would finish it before heading home (I'm currently visiting the family) - and that way I can leave it here. I'm a softie for animal tales so I knew I would enjoy this little book, even though it looks like the book equivalent of a made-for-tv-movie.

One-Word Summary: Action-packed

So obviously I couldn't wait long until starting the sequel...all of about two days. It was just as good as the first book and I'm eagerly looking forward to the third. Again, my warning: don't click to the next page if you don't want to see spoilers.

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo - Stieg Larsson

Date Started: 11/29/11
Date Finished: 12/4/11

One-Word Summary: Thrilling

I had put off reading this book for way too long. It was one of those books that everyone raved about and I was worried that it wouldn't live up to the reviews. I was wrong and it was great. But don't read any further if you don't want to see spoilers.
