Okay, so I just read A Girl In Blue, and enjoyed it immensely... at least until the end. It just kinda drops off without any resolve. Which, I've noticed in a few of Ann Rinaldi's books, happens a lot with the "romantic interest". I must say, that bugs me! She and Captain Sheldon had so much stinking potential!!! Yet, she one little bump in the road and it goes from "I think I love you" to "You turned me in... I'm shunning you!" And after that, even after she gets really sick (the best set up for a reunion ever!), nothing happens! Squat! Zero! Zip! This though, I must say, would be the perfect one to make a movie of. Why you may ask? Because Hollywood always adds more romance! And with this one, maybe it would resolve some unanswered issues with it! I would never say that unless the book actually needed more! With just about any other book, I would say anymore romance would butcher the story line, but this one needs it for the sake of closer! Maybe I'm just turning into a sap, but I truly think it would be my favorite book yet IF the ending felt like an ending, rather than a drop of a cliff. What do you all think?

This book is so good =) and still so very SAD =S Eulinda is a strong girl and I couldn't do half of what she did or go through half of what she had to. She went through it alone and that is very hard to do. I am a 13 yr old who loves to read everything and this is on the top of the list.

I'd like a honest vote, raise of hands how many of you would pick up a book on werewolves, vampires, magicians or cupid.
