Heather, I just finished Unwind and am currently reading Unwholly. I'm loving it if you haven't read them yet! Or Exceptional is another really good one. :)

Meaghan thanks for the suggestion. I actually just finished unwholly a couple of weeks ago. It was a good one. I will look into the other book you mentioned. Have any of you read Son yet? I'm curious about that!
Meaghan wrote: "I haven't gotten there yet. I've only read The Giver from that series so far."Me too!
Meaghan wrote: "So, in Unwholly, I have to laugh everytime they say Akron AWOL or Mr. Akron since I'm from Akron..."Lol that's hilarious ;)
I am currently reading Eve and I am really enjoying it. I'm about half say through and can't wait to finish it.
I have just joined goodreads and this book club. I am currently reading 'Lies' , although got exams soon so may have to put it on hold :( I can't wait for summer to finish 'Lies' and the rest of the series :)

Just started reading Article 5 but I'm having a hard time getting into it after just finishing Unravel Me. Grrrrr!!!
just finished reading The Kill Order and Maze Runner by James Dashner - both really good books, I couldn't put them down! They're part of a series (The Kill Order is a prequel) so i'm really excited to read the next ones; I really recommend them :)
Irina, I finished it and it got so much better as the book went along. If you like Finnikin of the Rock, maybe you might like The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen.I'm reading Beautiful Disaster now.
Pink wrote: "I'm currently deciding between Gone and Uglies which one should I read first....I can't decide!"Hmm I really liked them both! I'd say Uglies first because all 4 books are out and you can read the whole series if you like them :) Gone has five out with a sixth on the way ;)
Pink wrote: "I keep hearing good things about The Maze Runner lately, I hope you're enjoying it."Thank you! i amm :)

Oh wowww! That's crazy, I guess that means I need to read Hunger and then the rest!
I am reading moon dwellers and I am loving it! But I feel so pressed for time because I have a limit lol.
I decided on uglies, so reading that now. I love the concept of the book, very interested to see what happens.... I did sort of weigh the series up, 4 books vs. 6 books, but I don't think I'll read them immediately one after the other so that doesn't matter so much. I noticed the third divergent book was named recently... Is everyone even more excited to read that now?

I'm currently reading: city of lost souls (the mortal instruments, Cassandra Clare), Language change: Progress or Decay (2nd edition, Jean Aitchison) and Great Expectations (Charles Dickens) and I'm loving them all x
Reading Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire. I read Beautiful Disaster this week and loved it so much that I bought Walking Disaster today (I usually just get books from the library to save money).
I just started reading hunger, but decided to re read the selection since I will b getting the elite on Tuesday!!!!! Woohoo!!!
Currently reading City of Bones and am not loving it. Which is a crying shame since i've heard so many good things about it :/
Hmm I got it from the library recently so it's in my list to eventually read. I heard such good things about it, guess ill have to see for myself. What didn't y'all like about it?
I've finished Uglies and enjoyed it, Pretties has been ordered already! Now I'm going to finish reading some Sherlock Holmes to break things up a bit, then it's onto Gone - at last!
I too have heard fantastic things about City of Bones and basically all of Cassandra Clare's book series, although I have my doubts over whether it's my sort of book.

I just didn't interest me. I found the start to be a little dull and I didn't find the plot too great. Everything just seemed to fit together perfectly and it all happened too quicky. Like when Clary found out this huge thing about herself and just accepted it.
It wasn't all bad, some part were quite exciting, but in the end I'd guessed all the twists and had no desire to read the next in the series.

Yay! I'm glad you liked Uglies ;) I liked the whole series.

What didn't y'all like about it?"I just couldn't get myself to actually care about the characters. For some reason Clary came across as a brat to me and every time she opened her mouth it just annoyed me more and more. I would have actually liked the book a lot too...the characters are just bleh.
