i've never even heard of it. i just looked at it, and i don't think i have a very strong desire to read it at this point.

it's an aptitude test...when i was young it was divided into two sections...English language arts and Math.
now it's divided into three sections...English(reading comprehension, word comprehension etc), Math (all different types), and Writing

It's pretty much used as a general intelligence test that college entrance people look at.

i'm still two books behind on the morganville vampire series.
i was really gung ho with like the 10 books, now i've kind of slowed down.

is it crazy that i've taken up couponing as a hobby? ever since i finally saw that show, extreme couponing, i'm a little hooked.

weird...i know. :/ but it all started because i wanted to put money aside for my trip to the YALL book conference in November.

[Beatrice]

Damn. I'm having a reading slump again.

I collect coupons when I can. we don't get them in the UK quite the way you get them in the states though. we're lucky to get a coupon from morrisons for £2 off when you spend £40!

i shop at target for a lot of things, cereal, canned goods, frozen etc.

i can use a manufacturers internet coupon + a target web coupon + my 5% off using my Target card + any discounts on their Cartwheel phone app all on the same item!

How about that one for tesco at christmas?
£10 off if you spend £40 a week for 3 weeks.. then you can only use it after spending another £40? Crazy.

Bitter blood (13) wasn't as good as the others. I was bored with that one. I'm hoping 14 is more exciting though, so the last one isn't really bad.

Morrison's did something similar, but I can't find £40 worth of stuff to buy 5 weeks in a row and I get told off for stockpiling -apparently we don't have the space.

Asda did one where you got free delivery if you spent over £100. Didn't use that one either.

My four year old took my old biology texts iff the bookshelf and for tge kast galf an hour has been demanding we watch videos on youtube about celkular respiration and photosynthesis. I can't believe he wants to watch this stuff!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

At least it's educational!

Probably he is interested in it and it's really cool! Do you think he wants to be a biologist?

Lol! Right now all I know for sure is tgat he wants to be a spaceman-zombie for halloween.

He did pull my old microbiology text down yesterday and kept wanting me to tell him what every picture was about. He digs looking at viruses.

Sarah, are you a textbook hoarder?? :P :P

Greta, he already knows about photosynthesis? huh, it's not even 3G era anymore, it has become 4G!!! ;) :P

(my mom pulls out this 2G -3G conversation whenever she is confused about anything technological. She says she is still 2G!! :P)

I lost motivation and gave up on it. it started with some random people wandering round a random place and talking about radiation levels. i didn't quite have the motivation to read the end of the first one again to work out what was going on. I'll probably give it another chance at some point because I really liked the first one. I'll let you know if i start it again!

Aw, that sucks. :( The first one was so good!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

you liked the first one abbie? I really liked it, but I was possibly just not in the mood last night.

[Abi]

Yep. I can't remember much of what happened now, but i really liked it.
It's a shame book two isn't as good. :(

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I only read the first few pages so it might still be good. I vaguely recalled what happened at the end of book 1 (view spoiler)[ i think they were trying to escape from the boy's world because they were going to kill the girl? (hide spoiler)] something like that. I suppose I will have to re-read part of here and then try reading there again. Somebody told me to read there quickly after here or you forgot what had happened. they were obviously right! maybe i just need a reading buddy!

[Abi]

I remember about the end (view spoiler)[ He took her to his world, and everyone disagreed with it. They wanted to kill her, so they tried to escape back to her world. (hide spoiler)] I don't remember much in the beginning though, apart from (view spoiler)[ her best friend died in the crash, but in the other world it was her. Then the people in the other world was trying to find her to make the mistake right. Somebody from the other world helped them escape, by making her hide in the wardrobe (I've completely forgot all the names) and that's how they got this world. (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I think that (view spoiler)[ the box that she was trying to use to go back got lost or destroyed somehow, and I remember them being chased by people with guns. I'm just not sure how they then ended up wandering round somewhere random, discussing radiation levels.
The only thing i can think is that they must have escaped outside the city where the boy had taken her to, and that they had been told that there was radiation, but it turned out to be a lie?
I don't know. maybe if i read my review i'll remember who everybody is. I have so many sequels to read! I really need to man up and get going with them! (hide spoiler)]

[Abi]

(view spoiler)[ Oh! I completely forgot about the box being destroyed. I think them looking around for radiation levels was because there was a a portal that could take them back, without needing the box. The boy found something in his dads office (because his dad was a scientist, he voted to kill her as well) telling them about it. (hide spoiler)]
I think i might do what you were suggesting for yourself, and have november dedicated to sequels! I need to reread ashes, and read the other 2. The Uglies series, The body finder series, The maze runner series, The third Night school, The second Slated.. The list goes on, Haha.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I need to read the body finder series books 2,3,4, the maze runner books 2&3, night school books 2,3 and slated#2-fractured. and so many more. I want to finish the wicked lovely series too, and so many others!
my list is here. https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
i might start looking for reading buddies now!

[Abi]

I could join you with:
Body finder books 2,3,4
Maze runner books 2,3
Night school book 3
Slated book 2
The mortal instruments book 5
Lux books 2,3,4 (I'm reading the first this month)
Anna dressed in blood book 2 (I've heard it's better than the first)
And the wicked lovely series.

If you wanted to do the november sequels month? :)

[Stormy]

I can read slated 2 with you and Lux books 2,3,4

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Yay! Let's do that. It will give us some motivation as to what to read in November.
What dates are good for you guys for Slated and Lux?

[Abi]

I'm good for any dates. Whole month of nov is free for me. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Your pick then Natalie! I don't think Abbie can do saturdays though, so maybe sundays in November for those 4 books? Would that work for you?

[Stormy]

Yes them day work 4 me :)

[Stormy]

Are we doing lux first ?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

If you want ☺

[Stormy]

I don't mind either way is just I have to put it in my Planner

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Okay, we'll do Lux first - is that okay with you Abbie?

[Abi]

Yep. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I just wanted to let everyone know that I won't be on here much for the rest of this month. I started my new job at the bookstore today and since the store is new to the area, there wasn't much that was already set up so I'll be helping with set up until we open. I should be back on here during the day starting in November though! I'll hop on as much as I can between now and then :)
