The Ravenmaster's Secret
I loved it! Written for children but with such an exciting plot anyone could enjoy it! The Tower of London comes to life through the eyes of an eleven year old who lives there, such a different point of view from the prisoners there, but Forrest feels trapped there all the same. A great story of adventure, courage, and growth. The characters are warm and real. Going to look into more books written by Elvira Woodruff!
Quote - Ravenmaster's Secret
"Well, you cannot always know until the time comes when you are tested," his father told him. "Sometimes the need to right a wrong is so great, 'tis almost as if you have no choice left. You feel it in your very bones. And you can do nothing else but follow your heart."

Quote - Jacob Have I Loved
~ From Jacob Have I Loved by Katherine Patterson
Jacob have I Loved
Esau have I hated . . .
Sara Louise Bradshaw is sick and tired of her beautiful twin Caroline. Ever since they were born, Caroline has been the pretty one, the talented one, the better sister. Even now, Caroline seems to take everything: Louise's friends, their parents' love, her dreams for the future.
For once in her life, Louise wants to be the special one. But in order to do that, she must first figure out who she is . . . and find a way to make a place for herself outside her sister's shadow.
Spoil Alert!
The problem was Caroline knew what she wanted and Louise didn't as the Captain pointed out. Louise didn't even know if she wanted Call as anything but a friend, but Caroline did and so she got him. Though it made me very sad.
When She got away from where everyone knew her she got to be just herself with no comparisons and could be happy.
The twins being born at the end was great. It showed that she understood and accepted that some people needed more attention, more help, and that's okay, but that everyone needed loved. The mom of the baby twins would never say she didn't know where her baby boy was when his baby sister was being saved. He was being held and nursed by the mom while Louise gave the little sister the extra attention she needed.
Not a favorite but a good right of passage book.

Speed Scrap at Ginger Scraps!
Get there a bit early to sign up for her forum if you haven't already.
And there will be a Participation prize! Also by me! A full capital grunge alpha in green and black with some punctuation.
So come get your speed scrap on!
Awards
The first is pretty self explanatory. My blog is Excellent!
The second is the "Proximidada Award" or "Friendship Around the World Award".
Originally this award was written in Spanish, but it translates to highlight blogs that are pleasing or special in some way, and also to extend the hand of friendship around the world.
The digi scrap world transends all oceans and borders. Many of the kits I used have been made by designers from all over the world.
Now I'm suppose to pass these on but most of the people I know have already recieved them. So if you have not and think you may deserve one or both of these awards let me know! ;o)

Twilight
Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear. (Amazon.com)
Second time around. . . Still loved it! It still gets my heart pumping. The romance is so clean and appealing, the danger so alluring. Granted I didn't read it as quickly this time. The pull to see what happens wasn't there cause I already knew, but it was still worth rereading for the details and the hilarious banter that they seem to loose a bit in the other books, but then you have Jacob for that then. Hee. I had forgotten how she ended it so it could go either way. Brilliant even though she had a sequal in mind she probably wasn't sure she should get it printed so good ending to that one too!
