Yay glad you loved it! I was hesitant on reading it also but once I sat down and actually read it I just couldn't put it down x) So if anyone else here hasn't read Obsidian READ IT! x)

I want to read this SO BAD! My library, however, only has #2, not number 1 in the series!! So I'm asking them to buy it! Fingers crossed they get it soon!!!

I love love loved this, just could've been a bit shorter in my opinion. Her writing was a bit unnecessarily wordy for my tastes.

LOL my library is the opposite. They have book one, but not two. Yet they have the third on order.

Kelsey was right to warn me off this one. she tried to tell me this was her least favorite of the 3 I picked and I'd have to agree. Still, glad I grabbed it to give it a try.

Review: Great book for younger teens (up to 14 years old). Action-packed, fast-paced, and most of all - a FUN read!! Very light and addictive. I will be reading the next books in the series for sure!!
I'm going to have to change my pick from Ayesha's read shelf. I didn't realize Pandemonium isn't out in paperback yet and my copy of Delirium is in paperback and I can't mix and match book types (a little weird, I know). My library doesn't have it so I'm going to change my pick to:
Ayesha's rating: 5 stars
Date read: Not set
Our book :Between the LinesJalyn's rating : 4 stars
My rating: 4 stars
i wasnt really expecting much from this book, but it was actually great, though i thought the ending was abrupt from reid's point of view.. but it was nice =D

My mother is now yelling "Ha!" because we thought she was the only one with this particular, um, preference. She is STILL waiting for the library to carry the sequel to "Shiver" in PB. You are not alone!

I just finished
for my part in this challenge with Janine. She still hasn't chosen a book from my finished list but I'm hoping she just forgot and might finish this by the end of the month.I really enjoyed this book. For a minute there I was really caught up in the love triangle between Skyla Logan and Gage. It upset me a little that Skyla was forced to play games. That changed closer to the end though and now I'm glad that the book ended the way it did. Not with resolution but the promise that there was going to be more. Cliffhangers are my downfall and probably the biggest reason I've read so much this year. (That and unemployment, hehe.)
I finished this challenge on 11/17 (5 stars).
I think so Heather :) Maybe you can PM her.
I'm having problems finding my book, so I can't read it quiet yet. Oh and good job to everyone whose already done.

Good job Sapir! I am going to start on your book I chose tomorrow. I have been SO busy with work and another challenge. I haven't forgotten though. However, I was reading the thread and Gisbelle said we are to read a book from your READ shelf and I had picked one from the wrong shelf. You rated
5 stars, so I choose to read that one. :o) Hope it's as good as you say.
Ohhhh I'm sure you'll enjoyit SO much!(btw, shiver WAS on my read shelf, but Pushing the Limits is way better)
Oh ok. I guess I missed it. I'll read Pushing the Limits.
Anna wrote: "I'm having problems finding my book, so I can't read it quiet yet. Oh and good job to everyone whose already done."No problem :) I haven't started Hush, Hush either :) I'll try to read it this week since I'll be on vacation next week :)

I went into this book not expecting much from it but it took my breath away in so many way I just loved all the characters and that the mains were not made to be perfect, that they actually made mistakes.
I loved it, the romance aspect is pretty much non-existent except for randomly popping up in certain places but even so it didn't distract me from the real plot. So although I was disappointed by the romance side of things, I just couldn't bring myself to lower the rating because it was so much more then that and one of my favourite reads of the year so far, would love a sequel!
