I did. I thought it was ...ok. I think it would have been good if I haven't read the books (as per norm, I suppose).

Donna | 1350 comments In the middle of For You (The 'Burg, #1) by Kristen Ashley and I have 2 comments. 1. I love KA. I think I could meet her and instantly think she's my BFF. Love her writing style and characters! 2. Is this a long book or what? At any rate, I'm loving it.

I saw it when it was still in theaters and liked it too :) of course the book is better as is the case most, if not all, of time. But it was good.

Hahahaha! Agree with you on both Donna LOL! And yeah, her books are soooo long, but soooo good :D still need to read the Burbs series though. I'm working my way through her series so planning on getting to this one eventually. Love love love KA!

☆☆Hannah☆☆ I've started Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer . I just hope that everyone is right about this book being so good.


message 7007: by Donna (new)

Donna | 1350 comments Oh Hannah - Cinder is great! And with each book after it, it just gets better & better!


message 7008: by Tasha (new)

Tasha | 207 comments I'm dying to read Cinder, my library (or any others I can get to) doesn't have it though.
So in my book world I just finished Divine by Choice (Partholon, #2) by P.C. Cast and trying to decide if I want to torture myself with Divine by Blood (Partholon, #3) by P.C. Cast just to finish the series. Also reading Things I Wish I'd Known. Linda Green by Linda Green (odd tagging, I know) and seems good so far

This book is good. But the ones that come after it are even better. I LOVED Scarlet so much!

Still struggling with Perfect Chemistry (Perfect Chemistry, #1) by Simone Elkeles , I'm about 60% and I'm just not loving it. The relationship just doesn't seem genuine. I am also still reading The Jewel (The Lone City, #1) by Amy Ewing and Extraction (Extraction, #1) by Stephanie Diaz , both dystopians not catching me too much but I'm determined to finish. And today I started Where She Went (If I Stay, #2) by Gayle Forman b/c I just loved the first book and never got around to reading this one. I know I'm gonna love it. I can't put it down!

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments OKAY, all my lovely buddies....I just finished a book that is so similar to The Sweet Gum Tree by Katherine Allred , and to all that have gushed about this book over the years. I know you'll love it. This is one you don't wanna miss out on.

Don't Let Go by Sharla Lovelace 5 star read right there!!! Seriously, add it to your shelf and read it!! It's not to be missed!

I still need to read If I Stay & Where She Went, for some reason I haven't gotten the opportunity to read them yet. Will have to move them up my TBR so that I can get to them.

Oh thanks for the heads up Mello :) will try to get to this one soon. Hopefully the wait for book 2 is not too long. Maybe I'll wait until the release of book 2 is closer so I don't have too long of a wait.

I loved If I Stay. But I read it a while ago, maybe two years? Now I'm reading this and it's hard for me to remember (though I think I remember enough). This one is just as heart wrenching but in a different way.

Dawn Brazil (dawnabrazil) | 42 comments I've seen a lot of people reading Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover I bought the book at a book signing a few months ago and am so excited to start it but I have been reading all the books in David Estes's Moon Dweller series. I am currently reading Fire Country (The Country Saga, #1) by David Estes and I love the voice in this one.

And David's stuff is amazing. I loved Sienna in Fire Country. Have you met Perry yet?

Oh giiiiirl, you HAVE to read this! I've been so stuck in my contemp rut and needed a great YA read, this was PERFECT!! Dystopian/paranormal storyline with a teen heroine that I just adored, and it was a lot harder on the heart than I was expecting which I loved. Can't recommend it enough!

Well after absolutely loving Under Different Stars (Kricket, #1) by Amy A. Bartol , I was bound to have a disappointment. Tried Tousle Me A New Adult Parody by Lucy V. Morgan , which I knew was supposed to be a spoof, but ugh it just didn't work for me. Instead of being a fun jab at romance novels, it was a childish and often disturbingly raunchy read. DNF for me.

On to Fire & Flood (Fire & Flood, #1) by Victoria Scott , hoping this one's better!

Well, that is why I suggested it to you guys. That book really tore my heart up and then pieced it back together slowly. I remember SGT having such a profound affect on us all. This was just so similar, just the feel, the characters. I was swept away and read it in one day. Happy Reading!

I really liked it Haryeth. It is quick and fun to read. Lots of adventure but not an adult read by any means. Very little romance so if you want that you would be disappointed.
