Cindy Rawlings | 217 comments Eydis, I pick Graceling for you. I LOVED this book.

As backup choices, I choose A Tale of Time City and Moon Called. I have not read either of these but they look interesting. :)

If none of these work for you, let me know and I'll be happy to pick something else.

Eydís (eydis) | 46 comments Thank you Cindy, I'll see if I can pick up Graceling from the library, if not I will read A Tale of Time City since I own that one :)

Carina | 258 comments Thanks for a good pick Tanya - just finished Delirium now.

Depending on the bills this month I may have to see about reading my second choice too!


message 109: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (bookobsessed84) | 15 comments Thank you Candice! I'm going to read both but I can't decide if I would rather read Lover Enshrined or Insurgent first


message 110: by Cindy (new)

Cindy Rawlings | 217 comments Go for Insurgent! :)


message 111: by NayNay (new)

NayNay The Enchanted Orchards by Kristin Maddock 05/07/13 4 stars

I found the beginning was a little slow, but once I was 4-5 chapters in I was hooked. I fell in love with Fern and Fancy, I just found them very refreshing characters. I like the life lessons of the story and the sweet romance. This was a good YA romance.

Thank-you Carrie I really enjoyed this book.


message 112: by Brandy (new)

Brandy Tell No One by Harlan Coben Finished: 5/8/2013
5 stars for me as well MaryAnn!

I look forward to reading some of his others I own!


message 113: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (bookobsessed84) | 15 comments About to start reading Insurgent. Yay!!


message 114: by Cindy (new)

Cindy Rawlings | 217 comments Just finished The Selection. Wow! I am definitely going to have to read the next book, and quick! :)


message 115: by NayNay (new)

NayNay I read a second book that Carrie chose for me...

Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices, #1) by Cassandra Clare 3 stars

I liked the plot of the story, and there was alot of action that kept it exciting....but I did not like the character's, I found them lacking and for me it took away from the story.


message 116: by Susan (new)

Susan (susidivah) | 9 comments I just finished City of Bones on Friday... Tammy had selected this one for me and I gave it four stars on review. I enjoyed the plot and the fact there was so much going on. The beginning seemed a little slow but it picked up. I loved Clary and Jace's characters! I did guess a story twist but overall there were more surprises than not. I think I will see the movie when it comes out :)


message 117: by Karla (new)

Karla | 35 comments So out of the choices that Leigh gave me, I ended up reading Slammed (Slammed, #1) by Colleen Hoover . And I gave it 4 stars.

Oh. My. Goodness. Thank you for picking this as an option, Leigh! I loved it.

I actually don't even know how to start this. I don't know. It has been such a long time since a book pulled at my heart, left me in tears, yet unable to stop myself from smiling like this book. The poetry aspect was fantastic, and I loved that it was such a creative way for us readers to learn about different characters. I liked that each character had their own side story, and they each provided a valuable lesson in the end. It wasn't even really the romance that I like, more the life lessons that I got out of it.

Karla, I am glad you liked it! I need to move it up on my TBR list.

I'm so glad you liked it! He is one of my favorite mystery/thriller writers.


message 121: by Janis (new)

Janis (janispr80) | 75 comments I've finished Wicked Lovely (Wicked Lovely, #1) by Melissa Marr . I gave it 4 stars.

I really enjoyed this book which surprised me as I haven't found a fey book I liked until now. It started off slow so it took me a while to get into it but once the story took off I couldn't put it down!


message 122: by Elise (new)

Elise (redentrapy) | 338 comments Finally got Tiger's Quest (The Tiger Saga, #2) by Colleen Houck from the library today. I'll be starting on it tomorrow.


message 123: by Robin (new)

Robin (robinpickell) | 1298 comments Of Alyssia's choices, I read Sweet Venom (Medusa Girls, #1) by Tera Lynn Childs . I gave it 4 1/2 STARS & have added the next in the series.

I really wanted to read Days of Blood & Starlight (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #2) by Laini Taylor , but I worried when I finish it I will be desperate to read the next in the series. (Sad of me right?)

Thanx Alyssia. I promise to get to Days of Blood & Starlight soon.


message 124: by Becca (new)

Becca (becca16) | 157 comments So I feel like a fail this month because I didn't finish any books :( Too much life getting in the way of my reading time!! But I did start Crossed and I'm over halfway through it and I love it so far! I will definitely be finishing it soon, just not before the month is over unfortunately.

Hi Susan, just wanted to thank you for your pick I read Everbound (Everneath, #2) by Brodi Ashton , I can't wait for the last book in the trilogy to be released. I'm gonna pick up Poison Tree (Den of Shadows, #8) by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes very soon. Thank you again.
