You Are a Pilgrim |
 Like the pilgrims, you’ve felt persecuted for your beliefs from time to time. You have a strong sense of right and wrong. Your morality sometimes makes you feel out of step with the modern world. You may not go as far as moving across the world, but you still identify with the pilgrims. |

What Your Thanksgiving Meal Says About You |
 When it comes to the holidays, you follow and love the big traditions. You look forward to them every year. You see the holidays as a time to think about what’s important to you. It’s a good time to reflect and regroup. You like the aspects of the holiday that remind you of your childhood – opening presents, treats, and old favorite foods. During the holidays, you are likely to feel generous. At your worst, you feel exhausted. You consider yourself a real red blooded American, and you’re proud of it. You tend to spend your holidays sharing and pitching in. You’ll do whatever needs to be done. |

Your Soul Is Connected to the Fall |
 You are a somewhat sensitive soul with a tough exterior. You are street smart and wise about the world. You have the heart of a poet, but you’re not too eager to let anyone else see it. You are very creative and deeply talented. You are still looking for the perfect outlet for your expression. |

So, I’ve been reading a couple of things lately…well, I’m also rereading them because I liked them so well. I give my personal seal of awesome to these books.
Soulless
by Gail Carriger
Alexia Tarabotti is laboring under a great many social tribulations. First, she has no soul. Second, she’s a spinster whose father is both Italian and dead. Third, she was rudely attacked by a vampire, breaking all standards of social etiquette.
Where to go from there? From bad to worse apparently, for Alexia accidentally kills the vampire — and then the appalling Lord Maccon (loud, messy, gorgeous, and werewolf) is sent by Queen Victoria to investigate.
With unexpected vampires appearing and expected vampires disappearing, everyone seems to believe Alexia responsible. Can she figure out what is actually happening to London’s high society? Will her soulless ability to negate supernatural powers prove useful or just plain embarrassing? Finally, who is the real enemy, and do they have treacle tart?
Heart Change
by Robin D. Owens
Signet D’Marigold’s lonely life is shaken when a prophet reveals she is a catalyst for change. But to accept her new life-and the charge of the noble child Avellana-means embracing a danger that may be fatal for them both. Especially when Signet’s attraction to her new bodyguard signals a secret enemy sworn to destroy them.
Clockwork Heart
by Dru Pagliassotti
A steampunkish romantic fantasy set in Ondinium, a city that beats to the ticking of a clockwork heart. Taya, a metal-winged courier, can travel freely across the city’s sectors and mingle indiscriminately among its castes. A daring mid-air rescue leads to involvement with two scions of an upperclass family and entanglement in a web of terrorism, loyalty, murder, and secrets.
