One thing I noticed, I read 1984 like 13 years ago. So how can it be 2011? Anyways, enjoy the books, they are both really awesome. :)

Kathy wrote: "Yay Sami!!! ..."

Oh no! Is there a love triangle involving brothers in this too?? I just about got over Vampire Diaries lol. I really should have researched this more before choosing, but hey your high rating was reason enough for me :D.

I actually enjoyed the movie and all the special effects, but the people I went with absolutely hated it, so have low expectations if you do see it! :)

Go for Hunger Games. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a slow read and the first few pages are boring, but it's a good mystery book.

- I don't know if it's still a NA. It's more of Erotica to me. the sex scenes were too graphic. Good story, but very predictable.
