Best Book I Read This Month

The best book I read this month is Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. Answer the question at the end of this blog and you could win one of two copies of it were giving away this month!

Fantasy isn't really my thing but I liked this book because it's very clever and creative. For example, the main character uses her magic mostly for good. Sometimes she uses it to get back at her boyfriend. She also uses her magic to color her hair a bright blue. I like this spin on magic powers. And, what girl wouldn't make her hair gorgeous, if she could.

From more literary perspective, I like this book because it weaves topics from several genres and mixes in some themes from traditional orphan stories. Also the description of the setting is extremely detailed and easy to visualize.

Interested? Here's your chance to win a copy of it. If you could change your hair to any color what would it be and why? type your answer in the comments box below (don't forget to give me your email) and you could win!

  1. I would love to have red hair. I have always wanted to look good as a red headed. Dont know exactly why.

  2. This may sound odd, but I think I'd make it grey. I'd probably experiment with different shades of grey to see what suited me best, and then I'd turn it all, so I wouldn't have to put up with the "odd white hairs" or "pepper-and-salt" periods. Or else I might make it black, but only if I could give myself grey eyes and a perfect oval face at the same time.
