Heena’s comments from the RMFAO (Reading My Frigging A** Off) group.

Mark wrote: "This was very enjoyable book highly recommended."

Thanks Mark... I'll request it then :)
But I'll have to check first, as the cover looks familiar so I might already have it approved and downloaded... Thanks for the rec. :)

Haha! No worries, read the first one with us, maybe then you'll get tempted and read atleast the 2nd one as well!!!

Yay! :)

Yay! We should have a buddy-read for HP in April... What say?

Steve wrote: "I've about given up on "Romance Month", and don't anticipate reading any more of that genre. Time to start planning for "YA Month"!

I know it's probably shocking, but I've never read the Harry Pot..."

OMG! Really! Well, that makes 2 of us... Even I haven't read HP series yet and it's on my list for YA month also... :D

NG #6 The Birthday Gift (1/5- DNF)

NG #7 The Bigger Bang (2/5)

I also planning to get theThe Living Dead books for July.
Has anyone read them already??? If so then please let me know how good they really are?

As for July... I've bought World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War and The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead by Max Brooks.
Also I guess I'll be buying all the other Zombie books by Max Brooks (I love Zombies!!!)

But the problem is, I don't think I'll be able to wait till July with all these Zombies already in my bookshelf!!! lol!
I almost read 20% of The Survival one as soon as it got delivered... ROFL!!!

I guess I'll buy the rest of the apocalyptic books in July only!

I'll ask my friends for some recs. and will let you know Dagny :)
I really appreciate your interest in there country's literature!!! :D

Steve wrote: "I'm giving up on Doctor Zhivago for now. I am not in the right frame of mind for this book, and there's too much going on in the real world with family issues to allow me to get much ..."

Sorry to hear that Steve. I hope everything will be fine soon!
There's always a next time :)

Romance #4- The Journey- 5/5 - I loved The Journey. It's a time-travel story, but has some elements of romance as well! So I read it for this month. I loved the first book from this series as well. It's a beautiful story and I can't wait to read the next one :)

Done with romance #3- The Birthday Gift- 1/5: DNF - I had a lot of expectations from this book as it was a family drama with mysterious elements, but sadly the book was too slow (and really lengthy...) Though I really love it's cover art, I hated the story, or atleast the beginning!
I got it from NetGalley so it was for NetGalley challenge also.

Dagny wrote: "I know. That was such a treat to know."

Oh yea! :)

Hi guys...
If anyone wants to read DUFF, it's available on NetGalley (but unfortunately not for the residents of US or UK... don't know why, but that's what they have said.)

Dagny wrote: "Thanks for setting the thread up early, Heena.

I'm definitely planning to read Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

I hope to get in The Fault in Our Stars by John Green and ..."

You're welcome Dagny! :)
I also wanted to read Fangirl but looks like I've run out of days in April for reading it... lol! On top of that I got a copy of DUFF (a book I've had on my mind from quite sometime now) from NetGalley... I mean can you believe! I still don't know how the hell did they approve my request ;)

I loved TFIOS and I'm sure you'll love it too :D

Book Review: See Her Run (4/5)
http://thereadingbud.com/2015/03/14/b...

I've started Mr. Standfast but I guess it'll be a while before I can get back to reading and completing it as I'm stuck with a lot of other books!

Though I'll be reading The Broken Empire and Divergent series (all 4 books) next month.

I've read 3 new NetGalley books:

NG#3: Edward Scissorhands Volume 1: Parts Unknown (see my review here: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...)

NG#4: See Her Run (see my review here: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...)

NG#5: Frozen (not yet reviewed)

My YA reads are:

1. Divergent
2. Insurgent
3. Allegiant
4. King of Thorns
5. Emperor of Thorns
6. Dark Child (Covens Rising) all parts
7. Harry Potter series.

and 2-3 NetGalley Books along with review requests... :)
