For example, I loved the Bride Quartet by Nora Roberts, but I'm not crazy about the rest of her books. <br /><br />And yes, The Magnolia League is very good! I'm devouring it right now. Wither isn't grabbing me a whole lot, it's good, but I don't pick it up at home, just read it at work during my breaks. I'm still hoping to like it more, but who knows. I hope you're liking it though! <br /><br />Also, returning the follow. Have a great weekend. :)Chelsey @ Starry Sky Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15434377014891696802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454465975404650471.post-25625154604763936332011-04-22T17:09:10.244-07:002011-04-22T17:09:10.244-07:00Oh, I *love* Muse, not to mention Cage the Elephan...Oh, I *love* Muse, not to mention Cage the Elephant and Death Cab for Cutie. And agreed, sometimes it is kind of disappointing when you love a book and the author's other books just don't measure up at all. But gems of books wouldn't be gems if all books were... gems. (Yeah, great lame metaphor there). <br /><br />Anyway, love your blog and I'm a new follower. :)<br /><br /><a href="http://www.amyriadofbooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Kat @ A Myriad of Books</a>Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18414324160166322024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454465975404650471.post-55634874664844731192011-04-22T15:25:40.818-07:002011-04-22T15:25:40.818-07:00Oh I love Mumford and Sons!

It's not always the case that the author of a book you love has written other books you would enjoy, but sometimes it's enough for me to take the risk. If I see a book and I'm on the fence about whether or not to read it, and then I realize I've loved another book by that author, I'm more likely to read it.Izzy G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03300194042966790062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454465975404650471.post-40952968775166896392011-04-22T12:10:47.918-07:002011-04-22T12:10:47.918-07:00Hey,
