I'm SO glad to hear that Gis!

[Gisbelle]

me too! As usual, my life is crazy at the end of the month, so I don't have time to finish it yet :( I really love the characters, even the mean ones :D

No problem, but at least you like it! I hope this gets you out of your seemingly endless run of bad books!

[Gisbelle]

yes, it does restore my faith in books :D

[Vicki]

OMG I was SO confused reading chapter 2, so I was coming on here to ask WTH? (view spoiler)[I kept wondering if this was being told from Ariane's POV then why was she referring to herself in 3rd person, or was she thinking of the "real" Ariane? Then I sat down at my computer to ask you girls (and admit my ineptness) and went back to the first page of ch. 2. DUH!!! It's now Zane's POV. (hide spoiler)] How did I miss THAT? LOL I was so freaking confused. I feel like a moron! LOL

I'm just glad you figured it out! I LOVED the chapters that were in Zane's POV!

[Gisbelle]

In chapter 15. One word WOW (view spoiler)[ I loved it when Rachel was attacked by that shaving cream pie. Save her right!

I think I'm in love with Zane. (hide spoiler)]

[Becky]

I think I'm in love with him too Gis, lol! And my favorite was the scene in the parking lot when she said (view spoiler)["And the sex, don't forget we need time for sex!" I thought i was going to roll off my bed laughing so hard! (hide spoiler)]

I'm laughing now just thinking about it.

[Gisbelle]

Yes that took me by surprise lol I had to go back and read that part again. She was so funny :)

[Vicki]

I'm only in chapter 8 but I like this book a lot! I like how Zane is trying to stick up for Ariane and that he has grown tired of being one of Rachel's minions! I hate Rachel and all people like her!

[Gisbelle]

Right! Zane is awesome like that :) I'm so glad he tries to resist against Rachel. People like her are just disgusting.

[Kathy]

I confess! I'm think I'm a little in love with him too! He's just so dang sweet!! And his wanting to stick it to Rachel is icing on the cake! (view spoiler)[ He bought her breakfast and told her about when his mom left! He tries to comfort her too! *swoon* (hide spoiler)]

[Gisbelle]

You are in which chapter, Kathy?

[Kathy]

Sorry I forgot to put that down! I just finished chapter 20! I'm loving this so much! :)

[Gisbelle]

Awesome! You almost finish. I'll be offline soon, so I can get some reading done :) Still in chapter 17

[Becky]

Are we going to have to fight over Zane???

[Becky]

Here's a fun idea - everyone go pick a celeb you think would be a good Zane and let's share ideas!

[Kathy]

25 chapters in

Ariane (view spoiler)[ Crap-friggn-tastic it's hit fan!!! She's done it now! Or should I say Rachel has done it now! Either way it's a friggn' mess! Rachel really wigged out! Throwing beer bottles at people?!? And Ariane losing it!

And then her dad!! OMG!!!!!!! I had this little voice in the back of my brain telling something wasn't right, but I didn't want to listen! But I guess it's not that far fetched that since Dr. Jacobs is a sociopath he would go to any lengths to experiment with his "subject"!!! UGH! (hide spoiler)]

I'm loving Zane more and more! And just so you know, every time I hear, see or read that name the only person that comes to mind is Zane from One Direction! My daughter loved anything 1D!! She prefers Union Jack over American and she talks with an English accent! lol!!!!

[Kathy]

30 chapters in

Crap! Crap! Crap!!!!! That's all I can manage right now! I'm almost done! Be back later!! :D

[Kathy]

OMG! (view spoiler)[ Oh no he didn't!!! Dr. Jacobs wants Ariane to kill Rachel??? His grandaughter!!!! WTH!!! Becky!! I know you said he was way worse than Rachel was, but I had no idea!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Vicki]

Kathy, you crack me up!! Lol

[Kathy]

Vicki! That was a crazy crazy part in the book! lol!

It's sooooo good! I'm done! One of my favorites for sure !! Can't wait to see what you guys think when you're done! :)

[Vicki]

I got a LITTLE read today. I'm on ch. 9.

[Kathy]

Oh it's getting really good then! :)

[Becky]

Kathy it's wow isn't it?

[Becky]

Kathy our daughters must be Long Lost twins! K is at the 1d movie right now! !!!

[Vicki]

Kathy, yes, I love it so far!

[Kathy]

@Becky, OMG! It's so freaking Amazing! I loved it!

@Vicki, Yay! Glad you like it so far! :)

[Becky]

Ok when I think of Zane I think of Jake Ryan from Sixteen Candles:

I told my daughter what you said and she put her pouty face on. She said 7 of her friends are going tomorrow and she's not going! Which one does K like? Marissa likes Liam! :)

[Becky]

I think it's Louis she likes but it may be Harry.... Zane is my fave, lol!

Yup, it's Louis! LOL. She LOVED the movie. She's been babbling about it since she got home, lol!

[Gisbelle]

Finished and loved it! The twists and turns made me breathless!

Gis, I'm soooooo glad you liked it! I loved it too!

[Vicki]

In ch 11 now but I'll have to switch to start another buddy read soon. It's getting better and better!

[Gisbelle]

Don't read if you haven't finished yet

Dr. Jacobs (view spoiler)[ I couldn't believe he was even killing to let his granddaughter get killed just so he would get want he want. He was so evil! Not doubt why Rachel was so mean. (hide spoiler)]

Mark Tucker (view spoiler)[ I was shocked when he said he was part of the plan after all. Glad he helped them out in the end, though. (hide spoiler)]

I still don't understand why the series is called "Paper Doll Project"

[Gisbelle]

Yes and that last 5 chapters or so will blow your mind! :D

[Vicki]

So I hear!!

[Kathy]

Yay! Gisbelle, I'm so glad you liked it!

Dr. Jacobs (view spoiler)[ I couldn't believe that either! And he said her parents wouldn't care! *shaking my head* (hide spoiler)]

Mark Tucker (view spoiler)[ I was surprised by that too! But at the end when he let them go and he told her that she was 'an Ariane, just not his'. That got me a little teary eyed! (hide spoiler)]

Zane is my favorite too....actually I have a really hard time chosing! I think one is my fav and then I think of the others and I'm like, no it's Liam, no it's Nial! I like them all! They're just so cute! lol! :D

[Gisbelle]

Kathy wrote: "Yay! Gisbelle, I'm so glad you liked it!

Dr. Jacobs [spoilers removed]

Mark Tucker [spoilers removed]"

The part when Mark Tucker said that really broke my heart. It was too sad :(

[Gisbelle]

I hope we read book 2 together as well. And Can't wait to hear what Vicki has to say about this book :D

Klarysa wants to know if you can be her best friend? LOLOLOL. She loved your post!

[Vicki]

I'm working on it! Lol

[Kathy]

Becky! Tell her I said yes!! I just can't help myself when it comes to english boys!

My daughter watched the Divergent video with some of the cast talking about the book. When she heard Theo James talk she said he was cute and he's english? She thought that was just the most awesome thing there is! lol! :D

[Kathy]

Vicki wrote: "I'm working on it! Lol"

Vicki, I don't think any of us are going to shut up about this book any time soon! We'll be here when you're done! lol! :)

[Vicki]

I'm in ch. 21, so hopefully I'll finish after I get home. I have a few predictions...especially one.
