I really enjoyed this. I read it after I read The Fault In Our Stars..."

I loved Looking for Alaska. I really want to read The Fault in Our Stars too but I always wait until books come out in soft cover. I will not pay hard cover prices. I am looking forward to it though.

Oh, I have that one and plan to read it soon! I hope you like it. I hope I like it!!!

I read Beautiful Chaos a couple of weeks ago! I read it straight after Beautiful Darkness, which I have to admit I much preferred. Beautiful Darkness was really exciting and intriguing, but Beautiful Chaos seemed to drag a bit. It was still a good read, just I felt I didn't like it as much as the previous two. It just took me a long time to get through. I've heard that Beautiful Redemption is really good though - I have it on my to-read pile, but I'm just having a little break from the series before I start it.

Right now, I'm reading a book called Vintage Magic by Sally Anne Morris. I only read one chapter last night, but I already really like the author's voice. I've already read a book by her and really enjoyed it, so it seems like this one is going to be just as good so far. I hope so!

There are some great books on this thread. I love Northanger Abbey and Sense and Sensibility, they are my joint favourites of Jane Austen! Also, it sounds like I really need to read John Green.....I've never read anything by him and it sounds like he is really good.

[Jillian]

I am half way through Beautiful Ruins, by Jess Walters. So far it is awesome! great story so far, beautiful prose! and Katie G, Mariana was fantastic!!!!

[LaVerne]

I'm excited to be reading the third book in the Telesa series. It feels like I've been waiting for its release for a very long time :)
So far - so GREAT!!

[Anna]

Hi i'm new here! Just finished reading the girl who kicked the hornets nest, lived the while Larson trilogy, shame no more books will follow. Currently reading "no way back" by Andrew Gross, its ok but nothing special

[Cora]

Did you read the whole series the third book comes out in September or November!

[Nikki]

re-reading A Million Little Pieces by James Frey. first read it about 5 years ago, it is just as striking as the first time.
also have a new take on it having now had some literary studies education. the true meaning of the word "memoir" has had an effect on my reading.

[Avid Reader and Geek Girl]

Reading American Savage, just finished Your Heart Belongs to Me by Dean Koontz- awesome book!

[[deleted user]]

I'm reading The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides, I'm enjoying it so far everyone on Goodreads seems to hate it though.

[Maggie]

I'm half way through Daddy's Gone A Hunting, it's ok. I usually enjoy Mary Higgins Clark but having a hard time getting into this one. I hate to not finish a book so I'll finish it.

I picked up Your Heart Belongs to Me forever ago because I love Dean Koontz's writing, but it has been sitting on my bookshelf ever since. I'm going to have to move it up my TBR list. I almost forgot about it!

I am reading A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness. Has anyone else read it? It looks so good but I'm having a hard time getting into it.

My Mom loves that book! She's read it two or three times!

I felt that she was very long winded. She could have cut a couple hundred pages off the book and it would have been better. I know a lot of people that have read it and it seems to be 50/50 - half really enjoying it and half that couldn't get into it. It was just ok for me. I had some issues with certain character traits and too long descriptions. I think I teetered between 2 & 3 stars and ended up giving it 3, but probably won't read the next book.

Something you should know - This is meant to be read in conjunction with the other books. This book does not have an ending. It just leads into the next book.

[Maggie]

I really enjoyed Discovery of Witches! Wasn't crazy about the second book.

[Marisa]

Thank you ladies!!! I definitely agree that the author is long winded! I think that's why I am having such a hard time getting into it. Too much rambling about nothing. I keep hoping it will get better. And yes I saw there is a second book in the series. :)

[Maggie]

Well, unfortunately I think if you found the author long winded in the 1st book, you'll find the 2nd book more so. At least I did!

[Jodi]

I just finished Unwind and loved it. Today I am going to start . I am looking forward to reading it.

[Ashley]

I'm about to start the vampire academy series. hope it's great

[D.M.]

Dan Brown's "Inferno."

Also a great book so far, highly recommended by my niece, "Maximum Ride, The Angel Experiment"

On deck, even more highly recommended by my other niece: "The Phantom Tollbooth," by Norton Juster.

They seem to be quite different. And all three are very different from the three books I'm writing right now.

If you like unwind there is a second book with a third coming out this fall!

[Karen]

I started reading Dark Places but I'm having a hard time getting into it. The main character Libby is so unlikable.

[Katie]

I started Orphan Train last evening and am enthralled - hope it continues.

Thanks Colleen. I just realized that it was part of a series. When I started reading it, I thought it was a stand alone book. It is a series that I would continue with.

[Staceyj]

Horns by Joe Hill. Just started it but its already got me hooked. He's got his father's talent.

I really liked The Marriage Plot so here is ONE person on Goodreads that liked it :) I think his writing style is excellent and he offers a new take on depression - from both sides. I thought it was very good.

The Book Thief was one of my favorite books last year..actually probably of all time. Great book.

I think that there are two different Colleen's on here because I have gotten emails about comments that I haven't made but I'm glad that you found out that "Unwind" was part of a series

The Catcher in the Rye is a fantastic book! Hope you enjoy it :)

I've just finished reading 'The Name of the Wind', and I think I'm still in a trance. Best fantasy book I've ever read.

I'm just finishing off 'Fahrenheit 451' now...

I have read it and I liked it. The characters are interesting.

[Henrique]

"Vampirates: Tides of Terror" from Justin Somper and "Subliminar" from Leonard Mlodinow... till now I'm enjoying both of them.

Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan. Also soon to be starting the Pendragon series, since my cousin gave me half the books yesterday.

[Alexandra]

The Maze Runner by James Dashner, i have mixed feelings about it so far :D

[Mischelle]

I am currently reading The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman. So far, it is a great read.

[Jodi]

I am reading Fahrenheit 451. I am not very far into it but it sure is interesting. I sure hope I like it after the last two books I read.

[MG]

I am currently reading Unwind which I'm almost done and I'm also reading the Clash of Kings which I've put down to read other books not because its not good but I was also watching season 2 of Game of Thrones which kinda ruined my appetite to continue the book because they're both so close but hopefully I can finish the book soon but will definitely not going to watch season 3 until I finish the book 3
