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

INKHEART!!!!




Cornelia Funke's INKHEART

I Adore this book with all my heart. I have not yet read its' sequel but I just love this one so much! I am in love with the Mortal Instruments. But this book is a close second, it may even tie with TMI. Ink Heart was my first look into the Y.A Genre, and Wow what a first look it was! Moe, Maggie, Dust finger, Ressa, Capricorn, The henchmen, little Tink, oh What a wonderful mixture of fabulous! you'll have to read it to find out what it's about. Just thinking about this Book makes me so excited I just want to go read it again. When Maggie was very young her mother disappeared, Moe (Maggie's father) has been searching ever since for her, he has an obvious obsession for a book called InkHeart, and looks for it everywhere he goes...Why do you suppose that is? Remembering this book brings a big smile to my face. It's full of Passion, adventure, true heroes, and lots of fantasy, there are characters in this book you may already know, and I'm telling you it's well worth the read. Go pick it up! Open the Magic!


Another thing I must Stress to you is that If you think going to the movie Store and picking up Inkheart is going to be even close to reading the book, You are WRONG! The movie is fine, I appreciate all the hard work they put into it (and the shadow is OMG amazing!) But the movie is nothing like the Book and the book is worlds better. Sure Toto was a nice sub for Tink, but I love her mischief. So sure go pick up the movie, but you're missing out if you don't read the book.
