OMG Brooke, you hadn't read tangled yet??!! Oh you just gotta LOVE Drew! He's HILARIOUS!! And Drew & Kate together are BRILLIANT! I so happy you're loving it as much as all of us who've read it. I loved their entire story and all of the characters in it are fantastic.

Nope Nicole I have read On Jellicoe Road but I really want to read it. It's in my tbr for sure. Let me know how you like it. I have no doubts it'll be a great read. MM's writing is amazing.

That's really annoying Nicole :( there are so many frustrating random bugs. Many times when I go to move books around in my shelves, they'll just going into "limbo" and then BAM! they get added to my READ shelf! Then I have to go and relabel them over and over making it seem like I just only then added them to my WANT TO READ shelves. Make sure to go onto the GR Librarian group discussion and post what's happening to you in case they haven't already had it reported so they can work on it and hopefully get it resolved.

I'm going to have to push this up, it's been on my "must read this soon" list for too long. Is it separate stories or a continuation of the same characters? There are what, four books in the series? Need to get on that...

Tried to catch up on some of the comments but it looks like I missed about 6 pages of chatting here! Dang, that's what I get for being away for a few days. lol I finished Jake Understood (Jake, #2) by Penelope Ward and absolutely loved being in Jake's head, I swear he just makes me melt. And I read How To Say Goodbye by Amber Lin for review which was just meh, and Getting By (A Knight's Tale #1) by Claudia Y. Burgoa and I'm on the fence with this one. The characters were great, but the writing was so disjointed that I really had to concentrate to figure out what was going on and who was talking in the scenes. Felt like I was reading with a case of ADD or something!

So now that I did a few review catch-ups, it's time for some guilty pleasure reads...which means I am taking everyone's raving to heart and grabbing The Deal (Off-Campus, #1) by Elle Kennedy for tonight!

Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments You guys are giving me so much to read next week. I'll be on a plane for like 4-5 hours, of course with my son and boyfriend, but I sometimes aren't in the mood for the book I am reading or it just won't fit so I'm going to load a bunch since I won't have Internet, well technically I could for like $5 but if I'm just reading why do that lol. So I'll have to load a bunch of different genres for the trip.

I thought wicked was just meh. It wasn't horrible, wasn't great. It was typical JLA and I think I'm getting tired of the same go round with her stuff. I need something fresh. And all her characters are starting to meld for me and become the same. I am reading Fall with Me (Wait for You, #4) by J. Lynn and it's nothing special. Plus I don't feel the connection between the two main characters at all. As much as the MC tells me she's hot for this guy, I just don't feel it. I need more show.

Continuation, book 3 concentrates on different MC's but still the same group of characters. The other books are Drew and Kate

and yes, 4 books

I kind of started to feel the same way after reading Be with Me (Wait for You, #2) by J. Lynn . Such a shame because I loved the Lux series so much! Have you read her Covenant series? I know someone (maybe Sylvia) a while back mentioned it was a lot like VA so I didn't plan to read it for a while yet... but is it worth reading or just going to be the same exact characters as all her other books all over again?

I've read all her books. I actually liked Be With Me a lot b/c I love Jase. But this one is, blah. I felt the same way as the last one. I just feel like all her books are started to be the same...

I put off reading Wallbanger (Cocktail, #1) by Alice Clayton because I was afraid it was Drew's competition and I love Drew. However, I did read it and really liked it but there is nothing like Drew's sense of humor. He is the best.
