The new addition to my library

Hey All,

I was at Borders recently, just looking around in the YA section.  And I came across a cover and a title that catched my eye - The Last Thing I Remember by Andrew Klavan.  The riveting cover drew me closer, if it were possible the book was whispering "Read me." in a sense.  So I read the plot on the back of the thick paper back book and this is what it said:

CHARLIE WEST JUST WOKE UP IN SOMEONE ELSE'S NIGHTMARE.

And if that bold text statement wasn't enough to grab me, then this next blurb certainley did:


"He's strapped to a chair.  He's covered in blood and bruises.  He hurts all over.  And a strange voice outside the door just ordered his death.

The last thing he can remember, he was a normal high-school kid doing normal things - working on his homework, practicing karate, daydreaming of becoming an air force pilot, writing a pretty girl's number on his hand.  How long ago was that?  Where was he now?  Who is he really?

And more to the point . . . how is he going to get out of this room alive.?"

At that point, I was hooked, and I had to buy it.  I have yet to read it, but I have feeling that it's going to be a great read.  This is a quote from TheDailyBeast.com - "A thriller that reads like a teen version of 24 . . . an adrenaline-pumping adventure."

I suggest you guys get this book...or at least rent it and give it a try.

Happy reading guys!!

God Bless,
Shawn

Book Review - Daniel X: Demons & Druids

Daniel X: Demons & Druids is the third installment of the Daniel X series by James Patterson.  This time he co-wrote the story with emerging writer Adam Sadler.  The book was upbeat from the beginning, with the action never ceasing from one scene to the next.  No matter what was happening, whether Daniel and his friends were in danger from a vampire style aliens or Daniel finding out he is able to find holes in time and time travel.

In the third book, Daniel and his travel to England to stop alien number 3 on the List of Alien Outlaws.  And as he battles the fire-possessing demon like creature, Daniel is thrown back in time to the most traumatic time of his entire life.  The death of his parents.  

He must kill this alien at all costs, before he and his human slaves turn the planet of Earth into a barren wasteland.  And in doing so, Daniel will have to travel back in time to stop him.  Back in the Dark ages.

This is a book that you will not put down until the last page.  It is gripping story that hold you in suspense and hold your breath.  This story is a wild ride of action and adventures with new characters and revelations.

I recommend that you guys buy this book as soon as you can.  Happy reading guys!
