I don't think I've read any of those. Hmmm....


A Voracious Reader (a.k.a. Carol) (avidreader68) I've mostly been reading paranormal, but National Security was a really good thriller and Frozen Heart was a really good dystopian short.

A Voracious Reader (a.k.a. Carol) (avidreader68) I'll probably be thinking of titles for some time to come. lol

Sarah | 3273 comments What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty is supposed to be in the works at some point along with The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty - can't wait for those.

This year's line up we have Serena by Ron Rash by Ron Rash, Fifty Shades of Grey (Fifty Shades, #1) by E.L. James , Far from the Madding Crowd  by Thomas Hardy by Thomas Hardy, Paper Towns by John Green , and The Martian by Andy Weir plan to read all and then see all, except fifty shades - the movie only for me.

FYI

Legend by Marie Lu would be an epic film for sure. I am Number Four by Pittacus Lore already has a movie, but it was, for lack of a better word, a flop. So it would be nice if there was a movie for The Power of Six, which is the sequel. And all the other books would make awesome movies that would get better each book.
