*thumbs up* I second this one. Disturbing, yet compelling to see what one father can overcome.

Beatrice (blueviolin7) | 3 comments Hi everyone! I'm new to the group and just introduced myself in the section... Here are my suggestions:
Cassandra Clare's Clockwork Princess- I actually finished reading it but started re reading, because I loved it too much... it is the third of Infernal Devices Series and really breathtaking. Here is the link:

Then I will suggest other two I actually wanted to read this mounth: Jacqueline Carey's Dark Currents

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

and Anne Rice's Wolves of Midwinter

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

Enjoy the reading :)

Sure Natalie! You can nominate anything you want. We read all kinds of books here. The only thing we can't use as BOTM is erotica because this is an all ages club. Also, someone needs to second nominations to get in the poll because we get too many nominations to add them all.

Eldarwen | 5004 comments (There is a little button over the reply box - when you're on internet and not on the app - that says "add book/author" and that's where you can add links or book covers.)

I second Shades of Grey (Shades of Grey, #1) by Jasper Fforde ! Had that lying around for ages and still haven't started it.
Also seconding Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden .

I'd also suggest Pegasus (Pegasus, #1) by Robin McKinley or The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon .

Karen (karinlib) I nominate Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys.


message 81: by Eldarwen (new)

Eldarwen | 5004 comments Small addition: Also seconding The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking, #1) by Patrick Ness because that is sitting on my shelf and smiling at me ;-)

Isabella (bellavinter) Natalie wrote: "If we do read Allegiant, I will have to sit out because I'm not aloud to read even the cleanest of gay romance anymore. Sorry. ):"
Gay romance? Am I missing anything? I don't recall anything of a gay romance in Divergent and Insurgent o.O

OH Out of the Easy by Ruta Sepetys is such a good book!! Second :-)

Also The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini


message 84: by Lauren (new)

Lauren | 72 comments Something funny would be refreshing too. I dont believe we've had a really funny book yet as the book of the month. (that being said, I do not have a recommendation) :-\


message 85: by Payal (new)

Payal | 46 comments Sophie kinsella books are pretty funny...


message 86: by Eldarwen (new)

Eldarwen | 5004 comments Payal wrote: "Sophie kinsella books are pretty funny..."

Yes!! They are!
Her newest one might be an option I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella or my all-time favourite of hers might be an idea Can You Keep a Secret? by Sophie Kinsella .

In case that's the kind of thing you want to go for, of course.


Terry ~ Huntress of Erudition How about "Night Watch" or "The Little Stranger" by Sarah Waters?

The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters The Night Watch by Sarah Waters

Zoobaaruba | 2 comments I nominate Before I Go To Sleep Totally addictive read.

I second Allegiant,Glitch, and I've Got Your Number

I'm also confused by this:
Natalie wrote: "If we do read Allegiant, I will have to sit out because I'm not aloud to read even the cleanest of gay romance anymore. Sorry. ):"

No gay romance there, not even as a side story if I remember correctly...The Divergent trilogy is really great, don't miss out on an awesome read because of a misunderstanding ;)


message 90: by ight imma (last edited Oct 03, 2013 11:34AM) (new)

No right? For a moment there, I was afraid I had missed something big :)


message 93: by Nila (new)

Nila | 45 comments I second or third First Night of Summer by Landon Parham I really want to read it, this would be nice reason to sooner


message 94: by Mariam (last edited Oct 03, 2013 03:24PM) (new)

Mariam | 4 comments In reply to the gay remark on Divergent: *CONTAINS SPOILERS*



There wasn't any direct gay romance in the Divergent series but they did hint at it when Lynn dies she mentions that she also loved Marlene. But that's about it, no gay action or not even a gay relationship! It was really just one line.

Jamie Latshaw Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell This one for me!


message 97: by Malak (new)

Malak Silmi (palestinian99) | 4 comments Allegient!!! (Divergent #3)
