1. StarCrossed by Elizabeth C. Bunce
Loved this book! Part one of a series, and while it's clear events are set up for the sequel, this one stands well enough on its own. I'm dying for
more though!
2. Tighter by Adele Griffin
Great retelling of The Turn of the Screw, but with her own inventive twists. Comes out in May and I definitely recommend it.
3. Athena the Brain by Joan Holub and SuzanneWilliams
Cute and actually includes a ton of references to various Greek myths.

You're really pushing through those books.
Btw, I have this strong urge to read Lolita again (but so many books are required right now for school that I haven't go around to it). I saw this
dvd of a movie version (didn't actually WATCH it) with Jeremy Irons as Humbert Humbert! I REALLY have to read the dang book now so I can watch that
movie 
Have you seen it? Being the Nabokov fan that you are

Nope, I haven't seen that version (or any version), but I've heard such great things about it. I saw a clip from the very beginning on Youtube and it
was fantastic! I think he makes a perfect Humbert. He also narrates the audiobook, and I've heard that's really great too.
