Brittany’s Comments (group member since Feb 21, 2013)

Brittany’s comments from the YAholics Anonymous! group.

We've hit 600 members! Way to go, guys! I hope the group continues to grow! :)

I'm a little over a fourth of the way through and I'm enjoying it so far! It hasn't been spectacular, but it's compelling enough to keep me reading. :)

Any other thoughts from the peanut gallery? ;D

Hi all new members! Sorry I didn't get a chance to welcome you all individually! Grad school's been very demanding lately! >.<

It's great to have you guys here and I hope you find the group fun and helpful. We're currently holding nominations for next month's Group Reads, so suggest a couple if you'd like. We also hold writing challenges for writers!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! ^.^

Three more days to post your nominations, guys!

Haven't heard.

Ice cream cake!

WYR white water raft or go rock climbing?

No, I'm a mediocre cook at best. XD

HYE been to an opera?

I know what you mean! I live in a town with a relatively small library and thy were always checked out! Luckily my friends are book nerds like I am, so we swap books the others want to read.

Might not be a specific name, but I hate it when authors use really weird spellings for common names. I loved Throne of Glass, but would it have been so hard to spell "Celaena" Selana or Selena? I dunno, just kinda annoying...

Glad you liked it, Heidi! Paper Towns was also the first book I read by John Green. I enjoyed it, too, but I just didn't find it as compelling as some of this other work.

I'd definitely recommend you read some of his other work, too! ^.^

Yay! Happy Belated Birthday and happy reading! :)

Openly Straight by Bill Konigsberg

I know a lot of us have read The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.
Are you guys excited about the movie coming out in November? Do you think the movie will do the book justice? Like or dislike the actors? Feel free to discuss the movie here!

Here's the link to the trailer if you have yet to see it: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=68mu8IP6sSc
