118012 Finished Perks of Being a Wallflower last night! What an interesting read, really made me emotional.

Ok I finished this last night and wow what a roller coaster. As someone who just came out of my teens I felt really affected by this story. What an interesting read.

118012 Definitely joining the YA Group Read this month with The Fault in Our Stars, I bought it February and I can't wait to get into it. I'm also finishing up Perks of Being a Wallflower (didn't start until yesterday).

There are so many YA books I wanna read, but I want to mix it up with nonfiction and classics.

118012 I think it's funny how you've read more in these past two months than my whole reading challenge! Keep up the good work!

Do you plan what you're gonna read ahead of time, or do you just grab any book after you finish the last?

118012 So this month has been a bit of a challenge to read as quickly as I would like with school and all that jazz. I did finish two books Admission by Jean Hanff Korelitz and The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion . I really enjoyed them both, very different from each other.

I started the Perks of Being a Wallflower yesterday, and plan to finish over the weekend since it's a short read. Honestly I've never read so many books within such a short period of time, so this is definitely motivating me to read even more in the future!

In March, I plan to read The Fault in Our Stars, The Book Thief, and I'm listening to the audiobook for We Are Water by Wally Lamb. I may be able to get to Oliver Twist, since I do want to read a a classic each month. We'll see!

Hope you are all enjoying your reading challenge, because I am sure enjoying mine!
118012 I'm just really getting into the book, which kinda sucks now that this is last day it is a monthly book read, but I'm enjoying it. It took a bit for me to get into the writing style but I like it. Very introspective.

118012 Okay, so I just started this the other day and it's such an adorable quirky little story. I definitely agree about the Sheldon resemblance.

I'm in the process of finishing 2 other books but I couldn't resist this one. It looked to inviting sitting in my kindle library :)

It looks like a quick read though. It's great that there's a movie coming for it!

118012 I'm currently a little more than halfway through Admission by Jean Hanff Korelitz. I'm enjoying it so far and hope to be finished with it this weekend.

118012 Hey Kassandra, I see you've read Labor Day. That was the first book I read this year and I loved it as well, I'm excited for the movie!

You have things on your tbr list that I'm very curious about but I don't be able to get through them this year, but good luck!

118012 Hello everyone! My name is Danielle and I'm hoping to meet my goal of 30 books in 2014. As a college student it's been a struggle reading for leisure, I would often start a book and not finish them when assignments came up.
I also used to typically read books rather slowly, but my reading speed has increased these past few years. So when the new year came, I knew I wanted to be more ambitious with finding time to read books I've had on my list for quite some time. Including: The Book Thief, the Hunger Games series, the Twilight series, and several classics and new releases. So join me in my quest to get through my stacks of books! I'm looking forward to joining the rest of you in your journey.

My first book of the year was Labor Day by Joyce Maynard .

118012 I downloaded this just yesterday because it looks good and the awesome deal obviously, so I'm looking forward to starting next week. This looks to be very different from what I'm currently reading, which is Admission and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. What can I say, I like to mix it up! :)

118012 Hey everyone, my name is Danielle. I joined this site and this group because I want to increase the number of books I read , share my experience, and see what others are reading. This also gives me some extra motivation!

I love pretty much any genre, except horror. I'm a college student and finding time to read for leisure has been hard to come by, so I'm hoping this year I can reach my goal of 30 books!
