What Are You Reading? 2015
I deleted my post because some of you seem upset of it. It is nothing strange as someone said, I can post it again if you want. It is a very educational book, combining popular science with stories for kids. Thanks
Mod
We aren't upset Ovi. It was just strange that it was in every thread and there was no intro like "read this great book" or "you guys need to read this" something like that. We love educational books, I just didn't know what you wanted us to do with it. Thanks for the recommendation.
Reading
real quick since my sister said I had to read it before seeing the movie tomorrow. Thankfully it is a quick read.

Mod
It's not there, so must have been removed. I wonder if people are complaining.

I saw the movie on Tuesday and it was really good. I read some reviews that said it betrayed the spirit of the book and it's fans. But I don't get that at all. The only changes was that they made the characters a little older and made the relationship between Jonas and Fiona a little stronger, but that just works better on screen IMO.

turned up in the post yesterday. Really good so far!
I have been reading
I'm digging this one because I don't think I've had to read a Lesser POV yet.

Glad that you liked it Rebecca. I was wondering how different the movie would be from the book.
Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Kishan & Warner ♥ wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Sara wrote: "Reading real quick since my sister said I had to read it before seeing the movie tomorrow. Thankfully it is..."Well, I read it a long time ago. 2006 I think so I don't remember everything but it's overall the same and hits all the major points.

Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Kishan & Warner ♥ wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Kishan & Warner ♥ wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Sara wrote: "Reading real quick since my sister said I had to read it ..."It's not really an exciting story. It's drama before action. I found it very emotional.

, which I like well enough so far. My Kindle is giving me trouble. I have a beta read that was due today and I haven't been able to finish it. I'm annoyed beyond belief!
Finished
yesterday and rated 3 stars. Not my favorite. Saw the movie today, which also wasn't my favorite and just alright. Since I read the book yesterday I of course knew every change or embellishment made. Since they have no real feelings I just don't understand their family units.

Just started Ender's Game. It was recommended by a co-worker. I'm only a few chapters in but I'm enjoying.

It's working on and off. So I'm reading when I can get it to work. The author is aware. It's not the battery. It's just acting funky. I think b/c it's OLD! LOL! First generation Kindle.
Mod
I didn't like Ender's Game at all. After all the hype from my friends, I really thought I would. It too me almost two months to finish it. If I were to read it now, I would probably mark it as a DNF :(

My son is going on a month and he has to finish for honors English. I didn't care for the movie and have no interest in the book.

My son has honors English ad he has to read The Book Thief and he HATES to read. He is complaining that it's 500 pages. He can read the Autobiography of Miss Jane Pitman which he says he is going to read instead. I think he will hate that one more.

iBooks is an ereader app for iOS devices, it's very similar to the kindle app
Mod

Finished V's story, I really liked it, I liked the fact that I didn't have to read about the lessers, or Mr. X, that was nice. What I didn't like, was the Jane thing.....

I finished the audios for
and now listening to
haven't had any time to sit down and read so I'm thankful for my audiobooks :)
Just realised after reading the 4th and final book in the
series that I had accidently skipped the 2nd book
. I thought it was a trilogy haha. Oh well it still made sense.Trying to decide between reading
or
next.
Mod
Oh OK thanks Ash

Mod
series that I had accidently skipped the 2nd book . I thought it was a trilogy haha. Oh..."both great reads. I really loved Kagawa's series. And it's finished so no waiting like The Winner's Curse.
Mod
I don't have teens, but I do have a 10 1/2 year old who figures things out immediately. He wants to be a programmer. No shocker there. I have no idea how they figure it all out. I'm lucky I know how to load a book on my Kindle! or turn on the computer! LOL!
Mod
haha me to Brooke. I am out in left field with this stuff. I used to know about all that stuff but then I lost interest I guess.
Mod
I never knew it! LOL! I grew up without computers and such. Didn't use one until college and even then I was a spaz. I'm certainly better, but by no means can I figure things out easily.
I'm gonna try to get over my book slump by putting the books I've been sitting on on-hold, and will start
. Feeling like some KA... Wish me luck.
Mod
and it was OK but nothing like BD. I also finished
which I thought would be better since Ted Dekker cowrote it but not so much
Mod
and of course I loved it. Its a short story but it only has two appearances with Bones but I love anything Night Huntress. Chase wasn't bad either *wiggles eyebrows*
I finished
good typical shifter book. Idk what to read though now, maybe take a break....idk.
