I need to read The Hunt (The Hunt, #1) by Andrew Fukuda (series), Feed (Newsflesh Trilogy, #1) by Mira Grant (series), Tandem (Many-Worlds, #1) by Anna Jarzab The Unquiet by Jeannine Garsee Far From You by Tess Sharpe and a few others.
I think Abbie and I were going to read Premeditated by Josin L. McQuein so I could let you know when we've got a date in mind if you wanted ☺

Ask as many questions as you want, I think I've got it mostly figured out. It is difficult at times though.


message 62: by Rachmi (new)

Rachmi  | 4882 comments @Sarah, I actually wanted to finish 1 more books so that I can say that I read 180 books in 2013. But it's so hard to finish it when there are so many things that distracted me today. So I gave up and take what I can get, 179 books for 2013 :D

I'll re-read HP too, it is years since I read it. I read them as they were released.

I think Megan and I are doing It's Kind Of... on 3/22. is that okay? we still need to make a thread..

5th wave thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

So dates for Blood Red Road, Every Soul a Star, Stolen, 20 Boy Summer, and Time Between Us. I guess I can try and fit them in Feb but March would be better.


message 65: by [deleted user] (new)

My resolution is to finish a bunch of series before I start new ones. I have way to many ongoing series that I am reading, and this year a lot of final books are coming out, so I am going to try to finish a bunch of series, so then I can start some new ones!! :)

I have BR set up for most of these (grab links in a sec) but need to set up Feed and Far From You (which doesn't come out until April)

Rachmi  | 4882 comments @Greta, I know this sounds silly but it's always amazed me whenever someone tell me that they live in different, way different timezone as I do. We are so far away and yet feel so close.

Indonesia is devided into 3 different timezone, 2 of them are already in 2014 while my timezone is still have 1 hour to go :D

Okay I will join in on that thread then! And is there any chance we can do 3/17 instead?


message 97: by Abi (new)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments Another resolution of mine is to stop myself from giving authors second chances.
The second chances i've given authors this year have gone so badly. (Especially you, Lauren Kate.)
