I'm Currently Reading...
Just finished reading Lauren Oliver's short story, Alex, it was pretty good, wish is was longer, also still reading city of fallen angels
City of fallen angels is a great book! And I haven't read Alex yet. Is it delirium from his point of view?
I loved Matched and liked Crossed up until the ending. I thought Reached would fix things, but it just dragged on for a long time and there wasn't enough revolution for my dystopia tastes.
Alex is a very short story prob like 25 pages, and it is flash backs of his life, he talks about different events of his life from when he was younger, and then his times in the crypts, and then pretty much up to where he see Lena again, it is good. I wish is was longer, and talked about more, but it was really good.

Good to know;) I love Greek God stories so I have a feeling I'll be flying through these ones.
I'm reading A Crooked Kind of Perfect for a relaxing silly read, and am planning to read Bitterblue soon with Riya! :)
Presently Reading Feed, it refreshing to see a book that isnt a Hunger Games clone.Also reading and trying to finish Little Brother. I love it, but cant get into the rebel against the system thing.
I'm currently reading Indelible by Dawn Metcalf (it won't let me post the link) and I'm loving it!

was a really good read and if you like dystopian paranormal then give this a try. The characters are really great.
I ahve the exact same thing happen to me!!!! I don't really read fast either, but if I'm in a book I will honestly never put it down! Sometimes I'll read 2 500 page books in less than 2 days :) I honestly love trilogies, and The Maze Runner is EPIC!! You should totally try it!

Anyone else dislike Rea..." I was really excited to see it on the shelf on my local library so I brought it home. I read it and couldn't finish it. It feels like I read it last year ago so I can't remember all the details. All I remebered that it was such a boring, long book I put it down. But go ahead and read it if you're interested! No one's stopping you:)
Hi I'm a newbie! But I'm just finished the Delirium series (in about a week) and starting to read the City of Bones.
I recently finished re-reading The Bellwether (Connie Willis). Very fun book, and very unique. Although Connie Willis is well-known as a sci-fi author, this book seems to elude classification. Here is my review: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...Enjoy!
I'm just about to start Insurgent (divergent 2) after being on the library hold list for like months!!! I hope it was worth the wait!
You should read both of Heather's currently reading books- Gone and The Maze Runner! I also recommend the Chaos Walking series! If you need any more jsut ask :D

Reborn. The last book in the Born Trilogy by Tara Brown. Just finished Aberrant by Ruth Silvers. Aberrant was good. But the Born Trilogy so far is Awesome!

I've read all three, but with each book i found it got worse and worse. I wasn't a huge fan of Matched, but reached was awful.
