Welcome to Take Me Away!!

Hello! Thanks for stopping by Take Me Away, where I review books of a variety of genres. My favorite genres are literary and contemporary fiction, though I also enjoy some mystery/thrillers. I also enjoy sociological and psychological non-fiction. Check out the tabs across the top to navigate the site. All the reviews on this site are categorized by title (fiction or non-fiction) or by author. Check out the "About Jenny" section to learn a little more about me. Thanks again for stopping by, and feel free to leave a comment even if it's just to say hi! =)

October in Review

Happy Halloween!! Hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween parties and your children have fun with their trick-or-treating. I'm not actually a big Halloween person. I've had fun with it in the past, but really what I look forward to is the day after Halloween when it is officially November which makes it officially... "the holidays"! 

Anyway, I didn't read quite the collection of scary books I meant to this month, but no biggie because I've been reading some other good books. Here is what I reviewed this week:
I also talked about being a wuss and about having accidental DNFs.
I'm getting a little behind on reviews but hope to have up soon both The Buddha in the Attic and Lightning People.

I'm incredibly looking forward to November and December! Hope everyone else has a great November of reading!

Wasn't Miss Peregrine the coolest? That book was not what I thought it would be. Halloween this year is not much of an event. My kids haven't even decided what they will wear tonight and the whole thing is almost an afterthought. Too many other diversions!

I also love November because it is the start of the holidays, and I am looking so forward to the cooler weather! I hope that you have a very relaxing and Happy Halloween!

I hope you have a great November full of reading time. October was good for me because I had time to read, but I've been having a hard time falling in love with a book. I'm hoping November is better.

Happy day After Halloween!

I adore a good spook story but sadly they're few and far between, the emphasis these days being more on horror than 'spook'.
