What Are You Reading Now?
I have birthmarked on my to be read pile.
I finished The Space Between and am now reading Mastiff. Good to read about Becca's adventures again.
almost finished with Into the Gauntlet and I have no clue what I'm going to read next.

Good to hear Alan! Beka's one of my favored characters.
I'm listening to Delirium by Lauren Oliver and reading an ARC of The Peculiars by Maureen Doyle McQuerry (I believe the official version is going to be out in May.)
Right now I'm reading one of the Vampire Diaries books. STephen's Diaries, book two. Forget what exactly it is called.
I just finished Before I Fall. Has anyone read that? I hated the first chapter, but pushed onward and ended up really loving the book. I thought it was a clever idea that was executed really well with good writing and great characters (despite what I thought about the character in the first chapter)...
I'm reading Vesper's Rising and it's slow going.
Amy wrote: "Both are great books! I'm reading Tempest."I have this. I am looking forward to reading it.
Sherri wrote: "I'm reading Legend." What do you think of it?
I'm loving it. The characters are great and they don't always do what you want them to do. I'm about 2/3 thru and I can't wait to find out what happens.
I'm reading The Fault in Our Stars, and also Demonglass. Both are good. TFIOS is better, but also more painful. That's why I haven't picked it up in a few days.I have a question on a different topic: do you any of you have goodreads on your facebook timeline? I kind of want to do it, but only if I can select which friends can see it. I don't want everyone on my friends list to see what I'm reading; it would be like them peering inside my soul. Maybe I'm just weird. But is there a way to have goodreads on timeline but limit who can see it? Thank you!
Just finished
and now I'll start
and
Loved Need and NIghtshade. I'm reading Tempest now and it's pretty good but it's slow going for me.
Amy wrote: "Loved Need and NIghtshade. I'm reading Tempest now and it's pretty good but it's slow going for me."I like Tempest so far. I actually don't want to put it down, so I'm getting a different feel for it than you are. Need was ok, not the best PNR I've read. I didn't open Nightshade yet, I'll start it tonight.
I finished The Fault in Our Stars, by John Green, and sobbed through the last part. I used up at least 8 tissues. What an amazing book. I'm still working on Demonglass, which I am getting more into, and waiting to start Tempest.
Emily wrote: "I am about to start Howl's Moving Castle, and I've heard good things about it, so I'm exited!"Howl's Moving Castle is one of my favorite books. Hope you enjoy it.

I'm currently reading
. It's really good so far!
Amy wrote: "Or Sliders? Have you seen that one?"No. What is this? I loved Quantum Leap so if it's like that, i would love it. I just finished
and I really enjoyed it. Very different from what I've been reading lately. I look forward to the next book.
Sliders was this older (well to me) show with Jerry O'Connell who learned how to use wormholes to slide to different times. Something goes wrong and he has to keep sliding to find his home. It was an awesome show.
Amy wrote: "Sliders was this older (well to me) show with Jerry O'Connell who learned how to use wormholes to slide to different times.

No not older than that but I think it was late 90's maybe? Definitely before Jerry O'Connell was so well known.
I finished listening to Playing with Fire and started reading The Faceless Ones. I want to listen/read all the Skulduggery books, but it seems that in the US only the 1st 3 books of the series are available. I really like listening to Skulduggery's stories and Rupert Degas is a great narrator.
I'm reading
and
*I dont have many friends on here, so if anyone would like to add me, feel free. I like having friends on here, because it gives me ideas on what to read, based on what everyone else is ;]
I'm reading Dragonswood which is not normally my type of book (takes place in the past) but I'm really enjoying it, even though it's slow going).
Reading
. Amazing to me how much I don't remember about the first book.
Amy wrote: "Reading . Amazing to me how much I don't remember about the first book."There was a whole bunch of people that were disappointed in this one. I think I gave it a 3 out of 5.
I think the first one I felt just "blah" on which is probably why I don't remember much of it.
Just finished
...this was a really fabulous and inspiring book, I highly recommend it.
I'm still reading Hallowed (almost finished) and I'm really enjoying it!
I'm reading Graceling and it's pretty dang awesome so far.
Emily wrote: "I'm reading Graceling and it's pretty dang awesome so far."I think I'm gonna do this one for one of my challenges in March!
