what are you currently reading?

[Ariel]

Currently I'm reading The Mark of Athena, once again, in preparation for The House of Hades which is coming out on October 8th. HEHEHEHE... I CAN'T WAIT. Is anyone else as excited as I am????

I just finished September Girls. It's an interesting book! It was really cool, because the author came to my school and I got to meet him.

Also I just finished Hourglass. It was really funny, and I can't wait to read the next book in the series!

I liked the first two Nightshade books, but (IN MY OPINION) the last one wasn't as good... I really hope you like it though! Just brace yourself for the conclusion.

Just a thought Emma, the new main character for TMI's sequel series, last name is Carstairs....just a little curious about that!

Could you even see what I wrote lol? I think something didn't quite make it to my response

[Ariel]

OH! yeah, now I see it. And I definitely know the answer to that. Emma is Jem's uncle's descendant. Not his, unfortunately. :( Do you remember Tessa meeting Jem's uncle, and he tried to give them that sword…? That's who Emma is descended from.

I do remember that and it could completely be correct, but I just have this feeling it's more connected than that. I guess we will have to see what happens in the last book (I have to finish the others before it comes out >_<) but I want it to be closer to Tessa and Jem lol

[Ariel]

It's a fact, I'm looking at the genealogy chart that came with Clockwork Princess right now. What do you mean, we'll have to see what happens in the last book? Have you read Clockwork Princess yet? OH! Do you mean City of Heavenly Fire??? Huh?

(And yes, I wish it was a closer connection to Tessa and Jem too.)

I have read the whole TID series, I have yet to finish Fallen Angels. I meant the last book of TMI. I've never seen the genealogy chart...but I borrowed my books from the library so maybe they didn't have editions with the chart in it?? That saddens me a little bit, I was really hoping Tessa and Jem would have a kid that we get to read about later on.

[Ariel]

Ah. Well I think it's totally possible they could have a kid in the future. We'll just have to see what happens.

Go here if you want to see the genealogy and other extras to go with the series:

[Kathy]

I want to hear the story about how a Herondale and a Carstairs got together in the middle of that chart!

[Ariel]

Heck yeah! Just another Shadowhunter Chronicle series Cassandra Clare will have to add to her list...

[Kathy]

HAHA not that she needs to plan anymore...I think she has series to write for the next 10 years already planned!

[Ariel]

Kathy wrote: "HAHA not that she needs to plan anymore...I think she has series to write for the next 10 years already planned!"

XD I know, it's crazy! I wonder how she plans it all out? I've heard that she always knows the endings to a series she's writing, before she even starts it!

I don't even know how she keeps all her characters straight. I'd be writing Will in City of Ash or Jace in TID and just getting everyone all confused, let alone 4 or 5 different series of different characters shes got laid out.

[Little Bee]

Bah...I need to finish TMI...I have only read City of Bones...I just started Clockwork Princess, trying to get through them!!! I have to ignore posts or groups almost altogether because people keep talking about whats happening!

Clockwork Princess made me cry...and I'm not the type to do that over a book. It was still awesome though!

[Little Bee]

Ugh! I have recently cried from 4 books...I dont need another :-X

[Kathy]

It was probably my favorite of the series, but it definitely toys with your emotions. Not nice.

It depends on your point of view... I was okay with the ending, once I got used to the idea, but my friend really wasn't happy with it. I still think it's a good series though... just brace yourself.

[Kathy]

I've got going and I'm re-reading

What's everyone else reading?!?!

I enjoyed Smoke and Bone! I just thought it was so different from most of what I've read lately that it really stood out.

[Lady of the Night]

I was not too sure about the series but my friend talked me into it. cant wait :)

Yes, WATCH OUT! Stay away from all discussions! There are some really big spoilers out there... my friend got spoiled before she could read and we're both really upset about that.

I'm about a quarter of the way done with it, and I'm really liking it. There's something about the writing itself that's really grabbing my attention

WHOA. I just finished Finnikin of the Rock , and then I read Emerald Green . Emerald Green was hilarious. I really liked both endings of these books, they really made me smile.

I'm currently in the middle of Starry Nights . It's really cool if you like art or to learn about France.

[Kathy]

I'm in the middle of and I have to say I'm enjoying it a lot! It's a paranormal book about a girl who can see demons. Really interesting and original.
