Are you finished with The Lovely Bones? I just started not long ago and I like it so far.

[Alisha Marie]

I'm about to start The Fortunes of Indigo Skye by Deb Caletti. I'm pretty excited since I haven't read any of her books in a few years and absolutely loved them then. Hopefully this doesn't dissapoint.

[Kathy]

Finished Shiver and absolutely 5 star loved it. I so hope there is going to be a sequel. I've started an English mystery now, From Doon with Death The First Inspector Wexford Novel.

[Roshini]

Hi Kathy, I liked Elsewhere too! Interesting idea behind the book, don't you think? Loved Shiver as well, I think there's a sequel out next year. Just started Catching Fire yesterday and I'm dying to find out what happens next. Had to talk myself into putting the book down at 2am!

[Kirsten]

Now I'm reading Academy 7, by Anne Osterlund, and loving it. It's a YA novel that somehow combines science fiction and romance. I haven't finished it yet, but 2/3 of the way through, I can recommend it.

I just finished that one last week. I loved it.
Right now I'm reading SPLENDOR, the fourth in The Luxe series. I've loved all 4 of them.

Well you are on a great reading streak, Roshini. Elsewhere, Shiver, and Catching Fire are all just amazing.

Thanks, L.J. I did some reading up on Maggie's Website and other sources before her chat on Wild Things today and found out to my delight that there would be two more in the Shiver books. Maggie was a fantastic guest author to talk to.

[L.J.]

Maggie is awesome :) I had the pleasure of meeting her at the Book Expo. Did you read that there is a SHIVER movie in the works

I'm sad I missed today's chat. My tiny one has come down with her very first ear infection so we spent a good part of the day at the pediatrician.

[Roshini]

Hi L.J., hope the little one's OK. I missed the chat too unfortunately.

I really liked the first Benedict Society book...it was cute!

[[deleted user]]

I just got through reading The Lovely Bones and it started out good but then I got really bored with it because there was just to much fluff in the middle that was unnecessary. I skimmed through the last 10 or 15 pages.

I am now starting Thirteen Reasons Why. What do you guys think of this one?

[St[♥]r Pr!nc:$$ N[♥]wsheen pictures, pictures, pictures]

I feel like reading a thick fat book ..checked out InkHeart the other day in a bookstore, wondered if anyone's read that...How is it to read over a couple of months?

I've read Inkheart and its sequel, Inkspell and really enjoyed them both. I have the third and final book in the series, Inkdeath, that I plan to read soon.

[Roshini]

Hi Jinnifer, I really liked Thirteen Reasons Why, I think I can credit that book for getting me hooked on YA Litt again.

I finished Catching Fire and now I'm kicking myself for reading it when I have to wait another year to find out what happens! Talk about a cliffhanger!

Just started on 'The Adoration of Jenna Fox'. Anyone read that?

[David]

I am currently re-reading The Mortal Instrument series. On the third book (the last one released).
City Of Glass

NO kidding on the Catching Fire thing...I can't wait til the last one is here.

I have read the Adoration of Jenna Fox...in my opinion is was ok, not all that great but not bad. I guess I just wasn't really impressed but I hope you like it.

Will let you know what I thought of it:-) My thoughts still keep going back to Catching Fire...

Hi David, I haven't read the Mortal Instruments series, heard a lot about it though. Good?

[JG (Introverted Reader)]

I read Found, the first in a new series by Margaret Peterson Haddix today. It was a page-turner, and I really didn't see the ending coming! I'll be looking for the next!

[[deleted user]]

Just finished Lightning Thief... really fun. The rest of the books are coming in a spiral, so I'm really excited about reading the rest of them!

Now reading two mysteries, a classic Christie (They Do It With Mirrors) and a Montalbano mystery (The Terra-Cotta Dog)

both are light and perfect right now, cause I have a few bricks coming up on TBR!!

I really love that series!! How are you liking it?

[[deleted user]]

I just got done reading it was really good! It was a tear jerker and my heart hurt for Clay and Hannah!

[Natalee]

I finished Catching Fire, which was as awesome as expected. Now I am reading Glass by Ellen Hopkins.

Jinnifer, you're going from one tearjerker to another. After reading Life as We Knew It, I was utterly exhausted. I just went through so many emotions while reading that book and cried a ton. I had to pick up a nice, fluffy, book right after. Still, it was an amazing book.

I just finished The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman and I'm now halfway through Graceling by Kristin Cashore.

I am just starting Graceling as well :)
I listened to The Graveyard Book narrated by Neil Gaiman and it made the experience even better! Did you enjoy it as well? It is one of the only recent Newbery Medal winners that I completely agree with.

[[deleted user]]

I really liked Graceling!!! I couldn't get into The Graveyard Book, I don't know what it was

Hello Kellee,

I hope you enjoy Graceling! :) I'm already halfway and I'm truly enjoying Cashore's writing.

I LOVED The Graveyard Book! I didn't know what to expect when I first started reading it but Gaiman has a wonderful way of telling a story. And I enjoyed Bod's adventures. This was my first Gaiman book and after reading it, I searched for his other books and found American Gods, Coraline and Anansi Boys to be very interesting. I'm planning to read books by Gaiman. :)

[Roshini]

Hope you're enjoying Graceling, I definitely did! How was The Graveyard Book? It's sitting on my bookshelf but I still haven't got to it.

Catching Fire is one of the best books I've read this year. I can't wait for the third book as well. :) I'm wishing it's already September.

I am! It's great so far. The Graveyard Book was amazing. I don't know why it took me along time to start reading it. Gaiman is really good and I can't wait to read his other books. :)

Tell me about it! The wait is agonizing! Book 3 is out in October 2010 right?

The only other Gaiman book I've read is Stardust. Must have a look at the others.

I am teaching The Lightning Thief this year. A really great series!

[Kellee]

Anyone who is thinking about reading Gaiman's books, think about getting his audio books- I love listening to him read! He has one of the best voices of all time!

[Kellee]

Roshini,

October 2010?!?!?!? I was hoping January :(
The Hunger Games quickly became one of my favorite books (following The Giver) and I love the series; however waiting until October 2010 may kill me....

Kellee, I am already withering away waiting for the third book and I only finished it last weekend! I think it said Fall 2010 on the Scholastic website. Pls let me know if you have better news for me :-)

[Michele]

I am reading The Demon King.

I agree, Kellee. He is an awesome reader for his books.

I started The Owl Killers by Karen Maitland yesterday. I love the medieval setting of her books. Last year I read her Company of Liars and thoroughly enjoyed it.

[David]

I loved LAWKI looking forward to reading the dead and the gone Moon 2 and This World We Live In Moon 3 (Sequels).

After I finish The Yankees Years (Non-Fiction not YA)
I plan on reading Poison Study (YA)

Kellee wrote: "I am teaching The Lightning Thief this year. A really great series!"

I just wrote in my review that I wish I had had this book when I was at school... would have made remembering the greek myths so much easier!

@David: Yay Poison Study. Really good.

[[deleted user]]

I just got finished with Life as we knew it...really good! Scary but good. Now I am starting Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix and then I am going to Sent

[David]

Found was great.
Sent I felt was a bit of a let-down and seemed to be written to a younger audience. not sure how to explain it but it felt "fake".

[[deleted user]]

I'm glad to hear that Found was good...thanks David ;)

[Josie]

Just finished reading Maggie Stiefvater's Lament The Faerie Queen's Deception, which I really enjoyed - I can't wait till my library gets her Shiver in for me now!
