The Last Unicorn (The Last Unicorn, #1)The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked this pretty well, I guess. It's definitely a different sort of writing than I'm used to - more lyrical and meandering, than illustrative and to the point. The plot is good - simple and clear - yet without the mellifluous prose and recurring poetry, it could have been condensed into 50 pages. Many plot points and characters are not explained fully - no back stories are given. Characters are one-dimensional and uncomplicated. Fortunately, it's short - and if you're a fantasy fan, apparently you have to read this. Am I glad I did? I suppose.
Totally clean, with very minimal violence and no sex or swearing.

The UnhoneymoonersThe Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A fun, quick read. I stayed up waaaay too late last night reading it. Satisfying ending.
Why only three stars? The language was rough and completely unnecessary, and there was one slightly graphic sex scene. If that doesn't bother you, it's a 4 star book.
