What are you currently reading?
I am currently reading Letters to My Daughter, by Maya Angelou. It's amazing!
What book is that? It's not on Goodreads?
It's a collection of short chapters by the great writer and poet Maya Angelou, she never had a daughter, but the book is all of the advice and stories she would tell her if she did have one. If you haven't read anything else by Maya Angelou I would recommend reading I Know Why the Cage Bird Sings, first.
Wow, looks really good! I've put it on my to-read shelf!
I've heard really good things from this series!
Currently reading the City of Bones! :)
I'm in the middle the series, need to read City of Ashes!Currently Reading - Incarnate
(BOTM)
Today, I finished reading Promised by Caragh m. O'brien. Now, I'm reading The raven Boys by Maggie stiefvater.
Raven Boys!!!It's truely something different, than what I usually read. I was pleasantly suprised.
I'm hoping to start Tilt by Ellen Hopkins, and after that I'll probably read Carnival of Souls (BOTM).
I've heard great things about Tilt, the idea of a book in verse sounds awesome!
Yeah, I've read a few of her other books, and I loved every one of them.
I loved Tilt! Ellen Hopkins is amazing. I haven''t read one book of hers I didn't like.
I might read tilt but that kind of book doesn't really appeal to me.
I finished
and
this weekend. Now, I"m onto
.
Just finished reading
. Planning to start one or all of these tommorow:
-
-
I finished
- AMAZING!!! and am reading
which is also brilliant,
and also
we have to read it for school but it's still goooood ;)
Finished
&
on Monday then Tuesday. Currently close to finishing
, while planning to start
tomorrow.
Hahaha mines because I have a long bus ride to college so I always read on the way there and back, also during lunch as well as breaks. Also whilst at my nan's on Tuesday and Monday afternoon I read in between talking, at home I don't read all that much.
Just finished Rhiannon Paille's SURRENDER. Completely in love with it. It's the perfect book for YA, romance, and dystopian lovers. Paille is such a pro at creating a whole world thats so original.Its listed for free on Amazon for the next couple of days so I'd definitely recommend picking it up.

Damn seems so awesome I love the cover too, just got it now xD Thanks for sharing.
Definitely do it Laura! One of my fav books in a while. Paille's writing is awesome. JUSTICE, the second in the series has just come out, too, so if you like SURRENDER, check the other one out!
Just realised Its a series which I probably shouldn't start since got so many others to keep up with, but oh well I'm going to any way and will do :)
I'm reading Divergent (currently on page 183, and loving every page), then I'll read Onyx. I have a three day weekend coming up, so I'll be able to read more. :)
I'm reading the Girl in the Steel Corset right now, and I just finished the Unfailing Light the other day, which was really good.
The girl in the steel corset is the best steampunk I have read! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Finished
and
How did you like The Other Normals? I haven't read it, but I want to.
Oh you should definitely give it a go especially if you're a lover of rpgs like me, It's an original storyline so kept my interest for the most part and it switch's between reality then the other world but never in a way that seems rushed. The characters each hold their own even the minor ones and I do like the small bits of romance, got a few giggles out of the groups interactions too and constantly smiling [Except for perhaps a few parts that were unexpected to me], so if you cant keep a straight face then I recommend not reading this in public ^-^
Im not good with explaining sorry... anyway still take a chance, I loved it xD
You're welcome, I hope you enjoy it if you do try the book :)
It is a great book! I loved the series. <3 Backwoods Boy <3
Currently reading Her Own Devices ( #2 Magnifcent Devices series)It is awesome!
For anyone who likes historical fiction, read this! ;)
Historical Fiction!!!! Thanks for the rec.
