  1. I like Cadence, something about that name. And you could call her Cady for short, maybe. WEstley's not bad although I think I like it more because of The Princess Bride. :)

    1. Yeah, I thought Cadence was quite unique. I hadn't heard of it until I read Deceptive Cadence anyway. I agree I definitely like Westley because of The Princess Bride.

  2. I really like Leisel and Dexter, although I think Dexter would always remind me of serial killers, so maybe not a great baby name...

    1. Yeah Dexter does remind me of serial killers too, but I also knew a few Dexter's before so it's not so bad.

  3. Nice names, except I don't think I could name a child Dexter without thinking about the character from the showtime series. I haven't read any of these and definitely want to pick up Divergent.

    1. Haha! I knew a few Dexters before the series came out so it's not too bad for me I think. I definitely recommend Divergent too.

  4. Not sure I'd actually want to name a child Dexter... I love the series, and I actually love the way Dexter goes about things - but still :)
    Great list, Lauren!

  5. Totally agree with Liesel! One of my favorites too! Dexter and Ginny are cute too. I actually kind of liked Tobias, but then I saw this really creepy episode of Criminal Minds that totally ruined it for me hahah. Great choices!

    1. I've never watched Criminal Minds so I suppose in this case it's a good thing.

Discussion: The Problem With My Local Library

I used to use my local library all the time when I was in school.  Source I even spent every lunchtime in my school's library. My friends and I were pupil librarians and we practically had the run of the whole library. And then, when I started University, the only library I had time for was the University library. And that wasn't an enjoyable experience. However, last summer I started going to my local library again. (I then had to stop again when I got my job.) And unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed.  Source The availability sucks. I can deal with books I want that are already out on loan. It's the complete lack of decent books the library has on its system that gets to me. All those months I went to the library last year and I never left with a book that was already on my TBR. I walked around that place looking at my Goodreads trying to find any book on that list. And I couldn't find any at all (except for the Classics). To be honest, I ...
