Due Back...

Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become. -C.S Lewis

Multiple Bles8ings: Surviving to Thriving with Twins and Sextuplets by Jon Gosselin, Kate Gosselin, and Beth Carson. This was a good book. Kate got to express a lot of their spiritual faith that doesn't make it to the t.v show. I am a bit confused as to why Jon's name was on the cover though, since he didn't contribute one tiny bit to it!


Midnighters #3: Blue Noon by Scott Westerfeld. A good wrap up to the trilogy. A very weird twist at the end.


Hit and Run
by Lurlene McDaniel. I always liked her books when I was younger, but this one was pretty stupid.

Specials by Scott Westerfeld. I almost didn't read this final book in the Uglies trilogy, but I'm glad I did. It was better than the second book, and a pretty good ending.

Keeping Faith
by Jodi Picoult. This was really similar to her book Change of Heart. I really couldn't believe how much of the same material she used, although the endings were quite different.

I have heard that Jon's name was added for a couple of reason's-
One: Being so he wouldn't feel left out b/c after all he is a big part of the story.
Two: With both Jon and Kate's name on the cover as Author's they get more money.

So, of the two similar Picoult books you mentioned... which one was better?
