sorry *blush*...

STarting I Am the Cheese, which is a re-read for me. very eerie, and strange, and compelling. Lovely use of language and atmosphere... I'm glad I found this again.

[Sara ♥]

I've seen that audiobook (I Am the Cheese) on the shelves... I may check it out now...

[David]

For school today I read which I really enjoyed, going to go review that one..Gentlehands

[Misty]

I've never been able to get into anything by Cormier. I don't think he can write. (Sorry, since you obviously do, if this is a reread, Hayes)

[Kirsten]

I wanted to love JSMN but I didn't and had to give it up. I am currently reading Catching Fire and loving it.

I've just read this one, which I really like. Couldn't say about the others.

[Roshini]

Ok finished City of Bones...and for once, I have absolutely no interest in continuing the series, felt like I had to drag myself to the finish line. Would appreciate it if anyone who has read the series could offer input (and perhaps change my mind about not reading the other two).

[Kirsten]

I loved City of Bones. I cared about the characters, and was interested in their world. I enjoyed the trilogy, and was psyched to hear there may be a book four. However, if you didn't like it, you didn't like it. There have been lots of books that other people loved that just didn't do it for me. I think that's just the way it is with books.

Thanks Kirsten! Maybe it was the timing, I'll give it another chance some other time. Any others you recommend?

I enjoyed the trilogy. There were things that had my daughter not read them before me that would have kept me from going any further but I am glad I continued on.

[David]

I just started



really good read the first 180 or so pages in 40 minutes!

Ok you're starting to convince me to keep up with the series. I'll attempt it again soon. Right now I'm reading Things Not Seen, so far so good.

I loved that series!!!!

I have been wondering about that series. I may have to put it on my TBR list.

[David]

Really good!




Not so good, but four




Is so far so good at 240 pages in

[Michele]

I just started The Looking Glass Wars. Should be an interesting read.

[Sara ♥]

I just finished I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You by Ally Carter, which was really cute, and now I'm on to book 2: Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy, which I am LOVING!!! :D

[David]

Just bought Fire and The Maze Runner!

Since I'm almost done Peter and the Sword of Mercy so Fire then The Maze Runner then Leviathan from a friend. Whew!

[Kakari]

I am currently reading The Forgotten Daughter, a 1934 Newbery Honor. It's a historical romance of ancient Rome. =]

[Kirsty]

I'm reading Shadow Kiss (Vampire Academy, #3). The Vampire Academy is definitely a series I feel I shouldn't like quite as much as I do. Total guilty pleasure :)

[David]

I just finished Maze Runner The Maze Runner!

It was amazing I had to force myself to stop reading and got bed because of an early morning. I really recommend this book and can't wait for The Scorch Trials-- Book 2!

Going to start Fire tonight also my review for Peter #4 and Maze Runner will be up soon.

[Bhumi]

Kirsty, I'm so jealous! I've been wanting to read Shadow Kiss for a while.

[Kirsty]

I live in the UK so had to order an copy shipped from America. It was the only way I seemed to be able to get hold of it. I finished it early tonight and it was brilliant. Best one yet :)

[David]

Reading add book before starting Leviathan:


I Am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to be Your Class President

A very odd quick read.

[Kirsty]

I've just started The Singer of All Songs. Seems very promising.

[Margarita]

It is a great trilogy and it will be a movie as well!!! Cant wait!!! Jace and Simon have a piece of my heart!!!

[Susan]

I'm reading The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie and it is so heartbreaking but I'm really into it!!

[Kirsty]

I love seeing all the 'The Mortal Instruments' fans. I really fell in love with that series. I can't wait for Cassandra Clare's next lot of books.

Go buy it amazing for those of you who have read The Hunger Games this is a somewhat similar and much better book! My review will be up soon along with The Sword Of Mercy Review

Yes I too am looking forward to MI4 and ID1!

[Kirsty]

With just those two sentences you've managed to put The Maze Runner at the top of my to-read list. I loved The Hunger Games, so that seems a perfect book to read whilst waiting for the third.

I just got Leviathan in the mail the other day (!). I want to read Evil Genius, too. Though I think next up will probably be Looking for Alaska, which someone gave me.

Susan, Absolutely True Diary is one of my favorite ya books. Enjoy!

[David]

I love all of John Green's books Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns and An Abundance of Katherine's, I look forward to Will Grayson, Will Grayson, his next book.

[Kellee]

Can someone who has read The Knife of Never Letting Go and loved it please give me a pep talk? I am about 100 pages in, and it is going a tad bit slower than I'd like. It is good, but slow... please help me out with keeping it up :)

I have it but I haven't started it, please tell me that I am not going to regret buying it. It sounded so good to me. I am reading Black Rain- A Thriller that I won as an ARC on here that I am reading right now.

[Kellee]

Michele,

I know that it is supposed to be good... I just need to hear a true human being tell me that it is.

Maybe I will put down Black Rain and pick it up and read it.

[Misty]

READ IT!!!!! It is a little hard for some people to get into I think, because it is very different. But it is one of the most unique books I've read in awhile, and Todd is such a great character in a book of great characters. There are a lot of issues raised (ie food for thought), and it's one of those books that gets in your head and takes over a bit. I think it really does become incredibly fast paced and edge-of-your-seat reading, and I LOOOOOOVED it. Easy 5 stars for me (and I can be pretty nit-picky).

Adequate pep? I can do more...

[Kellee]

Misty,

Thank you. I will let you know if I need more pep talks in the next 400 pages. Luckily a weekend is coming up, so I can curl up with it for a while.

[Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ รђ๏รђคภคђ]

I have to back up david in his encouragement of The Maze Runner!!
As I said in my review, it's a combination of Hunger Games, The Lord of the Flies, and the TV show LOST!
Fantastic story line and character development! I simply can't wait for the sequel. It's torture waiting for sequels. I think I need to catch up on all the old books I've set aside beacuse these new books keep coming out. All they do is get me fired up for nothing because it's at least a year before another one comes out! Ack!
Anyway, sorry for the rant, get the Maze Runner asap! :-)

[Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ รђ๏รђคภคђ]

I forgot to say...

I'm currently finishing up Madapple and just started Hush, Hush.
They are both really good! Hush, Hush is so addictive, I had to force myself to put it down last night so I could go to bed. And madapple is very unique and not at all what I expected. The author really did her research! There is a ton of religious history, mythology, and even botany in there which is really cool to me as I really love knowledge of any kind. I find all of her waxing on about ancient languages, jewish mythology, and plant properties fascinating! This may be a turn off for others though.
It also has quite the murder mystery going on ala Jodi Picoult!
I'll let you know how these turn out!

[Susan]

I'm dying to read Hush hush!! I'm on the list at the library!!!

[David]

Okay 252 in Leviathan expect Peter and the Sword of Mercy up very soon and a Leviathan review as well. After that Fire Cashore.

[Tahleen]

I read Hush, Hush and didn't think it was amazing but it was definitely entertaining and a page-turner.

I also loved Madapple--definitely VERY different.

[David]

Done Leviathan onto Fire

[Esther]

Just finished The Mouse and the Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary which is children's not YA but enjoyable and better constructed than a lot of what is out there..

[David]

I used to love the Mouse and Motorcycle and the Schoolhouse Mouse(Title ?) books!

[Kathy]

I'm finally getting around to Uglies by Scott Westerfeld.
