My Mission!

My Name is Christina Rogers, I love to read and I am a firm believer that books can change a person's life. For instance...Murder in the Cove was the first book I ever read at about 21 years old. I could always read, just never found anything that really sparked my interest, until that book! It still remains one of my favorites to this day. Generation Dead by Dan Waters is a great book for people who are in situations (being bullied mainly) to realize they are not alone. I found solace in that knowledge and it made me feel stronger, and more Confident about myself, seeing these characters overcome so much made me believe I could overcome my adversities as well.

There are so many books out there! Authors of whom you may not have herd of, and there is my primary Goal...To bring to you Not only books others know and love, but also to show you new Authors, and Titles that probably would not have been brought to your attention until now. For instance, Few have herd of Dan Waters Author of The Generation Dead Novels, Michelle Zink who wrote The Prophecy of the sisters. Or Canadian Writers such as, Kathleen J. Farthing- Murder in the Cove, or Lesley Crewe-Relative Happiness, and Shoot me. If this is the case, and you haven't herd of these Writers and their great books you may be missing out on the greatest book you would ever read.
No matter what, there is a book out there for you. Weather it be Michelle Zink's Prophecy of the sisters, where two sisters have to fight against each other in a true test of love and Destiny/fate, or J.K Rowlings Harry Potter Fighting for survival and Friendship. Or maybe you wish to fight Valentine and disobey the Clave in an attempt to save love, and lives in Cassandra Clare's Infernal Devices, and Mortal Instruments. There is With out a doubt a book out there that speaks to you.

My mission is to help you find it. I have a very vast Library of books, my goal is to review these books and hopefully open up a world of mystery and magic for you, or Allow you to find a book that will broaden your horizons, and give you facts that you have been searching for. From Non-Fiction to Fiction, Adult to Childhood books I hope to help you find your perfect match.


So give me ideas of what you like, let me know what your favorite Genres of books are. or just browse through what already lies in the pages of this blog, there is something for you, I just Know it!

Happy Reading,

Christina Rogers
