Thanks Carrie! I'm going to go with The Ultimate Hitchhikers guide! Marked is already on my to read list for 2013 and I don't have the first Harry Potter right now!
I saw someone else already picked for you (I just got home so I couldn't do this sooner) but let me know if you want another choice I'd love to pick one for you!
Thirteen Reasons WhyI really enjoyed reading this book. It was very hard for me to put down. The story was amazingly told and I felt like I was walking right next to Clay when he was listening to those tapes. I was just curious about what will happen after the tapes reach everyone else on the list? How will hearing Hannah's story effect the teacher? I was so exciting to read.
Thank you Alyssia, I really enjoyed it and was actually a little upset when it ended.

I finished
01/05/13 ****The characters, they are interesting and compelling. The story was well written, making it difficult to put down. I thoroughly enjoyed reading "Apart From Love" and recommend it.

There is no deadline for reading your book. It is just for fun.

Glad you liked it. I need to re-read it before the movie comes out. It looks like it will be real good.

Finished Shadow of Night... I really enjoyed it, but it was a little slow going at first. I had the same problem with the first one, too. There are A LOT of characters to keep up with in this one, some of which don't seem really relevant to the story... maybe it's just preparation for the third book? Anyhow, I enjoyed it in spite of that, and I'm excited to see how the story ends in the third book, whenever that comes out! Thanks for the pick, Iris!
Just finished
(it was a second choice I decided to read)I just did not like the book, the character development was poor, and the book was just bogged down with way too much description. I was really looking forward to reading this one, sadly I giving it a 2 star.
I finished
today and i'm glad Sheri picked it for me. It was a nice read.My review:

I read
. It was funny and a nice light hearted read. I would recommend this to anyone who likes Sophie Kinsella/chick lit type books
I have started the Feburary thread. Anyone who is interested here it is. http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...
Tomorrow is my last exam and I can't wait to get started on my book over the weekend! Although I never heard back from my partner so I don't even know if they are reading theirs!

I just finished The Hunger Games and I can see why people have been raving over it. I gave it 5 stars and I'm still reeling - pleasantly - from the reading of the book. It got me totally absorbed, to the point where I found myself getting so lost in the book it almost became reality for me. I'm not normally a big fan of YA books but this read more like an adult book rather than a YA one.
Now all I need is another book to read for this month for this challenge.
