You should definitely read Divergent. I remember thinking it would be interesting to read, but I kept pushing it back on my to-read list. After I finally checked it out from my school library and read it, I felt really silly for putting it off for so long. I really love that book and its sequel. :)

I haven't and I've been seeing that book in book blogger's post quite a while. Might check it out. :) Thank you!

Greta (goodreadsgreta) | 4545 comments I know I'm always on this thread whining about the same thing, but I really would like to read a great romantic book! I don't want lots of angst or a tear jerker.

Hmm. What kind of romantic are you looking for? (like what books would be simlar.)

Have you read Such a Rush by Jennifer Echols ?

Actually, Such a Rush may have some angst in it, but it's still a great book.

I have a few more for you to try!

What I Didn't Say by Keary Taylor (free on Amazon at the moment.)
My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick (one of my favorites, though it can be a little tearjerk-y if you are really sensitive to sad parts in books like I am.)

Both are fantastic books.


message 112: by Hazel (new)

Hazel (Stay Bookish) (staybookish) Hi you guys I'm looking for series like Abbi Glines' Sea Breeze or CJ Duggan's The Boys of Summer or even Cora Carmack's Losing It. :) Recommend one?

Maybe try Crash (Crash, #1) by Nicole Williams Clash (Crash, #2) by Nicole Williams Crush (Crash, #3) by Nicole Williams if you haven't already? I've only read the first one in the series, but I really liked it.

Thanks, I'll try it out! :)


message 115: by Heather (new)

Heather Beam | 2 comments I recommend Dark Destiny, Part 1 (Dark Destiny Series) by Oscar Cavazos - I seriously enjoyed this book. Only negative? It's somewhat short, the word count is about 30k. But, it was well worth the 99 cents I paid for it on Amazon.

Hm..."

Thanks for the suggestions. I do want to read those books, but right now I'm kind of looking for some light chick lit. Maybe something like
The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella Or Queen of Babble (Queen of Babble, #1) by Meg Cabot

message 120: by Ivanna (last edited May 03, 2013 02:22PM) (new)

Ivanna (ivannarazote) | 195 comments not yet. I think I'm going to check that out, as well as the one you recommended earlier by Sarah Manning though I can't seem to find a copy of the latter.

Ivanna (ivannarazote) | 195 comments Have you tried reading I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella ? I didn't really like it but most of my GR friends loved it. So you may want to see it for yourself. :)

I've read the description and I'm kind of meh about it. Still might read it, though.

Tati Well, for those that like Mr Grey, there's also Gabriel. He's not as controlling, but I love him more than Grey. You can find him here:

Gabriel's Inferno (Gabriel's Inferno, #1) by Sylvain Reynard

Mishma Greta have you tried the Covenant series by Jennifer L.Armentrout?


message 138: by Tati (new)

Tati I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for, but John Grisham has books with lawyers as characters or trials (The Pelican Brief comes to mind)

Same here! I decided not to read the second book until the 3rd one is out. :)


message 143: by Mishma (new)

Mishma Can someone recommend me a really good Dystopian novel?Something like Under the Never Sky and Divergent.


message 144: by Tati (new)

Tati Have you read those?

Breathe (Breathe, #1) by Sarah Crossan Birthmarked (Birthmarked, #1) by Caragh M. O'Brien


message 145: by Mishma (new)

Mishma No.What are they like?


message 146: by Tati (new)

Tati I liked them both. Breathe is an environmental dystopia (all the trees were destroyed, so there's not enough oxygen in the air and humans have to live in pods). It was a compelling read. However, the second book is not out yet.

Birthmarked has a very interesting concept (mothers from outside having to give their babies away because of genetic issues), and all the books have already been published.


message 147: by Mishma (new)

Mishma Both sounds interesting.I'll check them out.
Thanks Tatiana.
