Courtney Simon | 5 comments I’m currently reading Alice in Zombieland and I’m telling you now, if you have not read this book, I recommend it to you as in everyone. This book is for people that like books fancy, horror and romance, so its defiantly a YOUNG-ADULT book.

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments I'm probably not reading much today, because I had to have a pet put to sleep, but I'm working on finishing up The Final Warning (Maximum Ride, #4) by James Patterson and I really want to finally get City of Fallen Angels (The Mortal Instruments, #4) by Cassandra Clare over with - def not the best in the series. I need to start Midnight Alley (The Morganville Vampires, #3) by Rachel Caine for a buddy read.

I finished Beyond the Veil (The Grey Wolves, #5) by Quinn Loftis this morning and omg, the ending left me so frustrated. Arg. On to book 6 for that one.

Did you like Angelfall?


message 2742: by Becky (new)

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments Decided to start Shadows (Lux, #0.5) by Jennifer L. Armentrout today while I was at work. Loving it so far!


message 2743: by Marie (new)

Marie | 56 comments These past days, I read for the first time Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1) by J.K. Rowling and it was a really nice experience. It took me a while to get used to the writting style and to undertsand Hagrid (the way he talks in french translation was much easier to understand to me) and also to realize who was who (names aren't all the sames in the french translation) and get used to the ''wizzard'' vocabulary in english but in the end, it was great. I have to say however, that while I usually don't like translations in french and think that the people who did Harry Potter did an AMAZING job. I don't say this often but Harry Potter's translation is just as good as the original in my opinion.

I also read Bittersweet by Sarah Ockler and at first I loved it and loved the main character ( I related a lot to her) but then BAM!The main character became so annoying that I couldn't stand the book. She's one of the most selfish character I've read about.

Then, for the last book in my 2013 challenge (read 130 books/shorts story, graphic novels), I chose A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, #1) by George R.R. Martin . I was really scared but exited when I started it because, I wasn't a big fan of the tv show. I liked but I got bored after a few episoded and I was never able to get back into it (I felt lost because a lot of times had passed and I didn't remeber that much about what I had seen).
I was also scared that I wouldn't be able to get use to the writing style since it's an adult book and when I read the prologue I thought I wouldn't be able to get throught the book because I was so confused. I didn't undertsand what was going on, who was who....The writting was so descriptive... but then I read the first chapter and all my issues with the prologue were gone and I just couldn't stop reading! It's amazing.

I am glad that I've watch most of the tv show because it really help visualize the characters, the places and everything and I would probably be a little lost without it. I'll probably watch the rest of the tv shows before I read the other books ( I don't have the money to buy the big paperpacks editions that I love and I hate mass market), even if I know that thinks started to get a little (or a lot) different from the books in season 2 and 3. I still think it'll help me understand the books better.
