what are you Currently Reading?
I just finnish reading Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan, and I highly recommend it, I like it very very much. Now I'm reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson by David Levithan and John Green, and it is interesting so far... Sometimes a little frustrating, with one of the Will, but well.I find curious that some of you read like 2, 3 and 4 books at the same time! I can't do that, I HAVE to finish one so I can start with the other. Sometimes, when a book turns out a little boring, that "rule" of mine help me to finish it faster so I cant start another :P
I have been able to finish a lot of books this weeka. I had to put down blood promise in order to read The Softwire: Awakening on Orbis 4 and it was alright. I was also able to finish Red and it was very good. I also started the Darkest Minds and it is alright so far. I also went to the library and got seven more books to read. I am now reading
and
.Both are so good that i am having trouble on deciding which one to read first.
Uninvited by Sophie Jordan -it's really really good! Been reading nonstop for the last 3 hours and I've only got a little over 100 pages left.

Yeah, I haven't read something like that, the main topic of the book is creative and futuristic.
Greetings.

Alright, do you want to start next week then? I'll start a topic if you want too :)
@Melissa: Maybe you can finish Divergent until next week and we start reading it next week together and try to catch up to Gina? :)

@Steph: I hate people who abandon small babies in trash cans! :( I mean there are better ways to get rid of it like giving to a foster home, if she has to >.<
@Gina; @Jasmin: how are you doing with Insurgent? I just finished Divergent and I really have to keep going with my reading for the bingo thing. So I want to know when can we start on this book... see if I can finish another one in the meantime.
Oh, and I think it would be a great idea if your start a topic, Jasmin. =D
@Sia:Of Divergent? I REALLY, REALLY LIKED IT! :D I couldn't stop reading. It has a few thing that I didn't like (that's why to me, it's a 4.5) but I can't tell you what it was because of the spoilers.
What I like is that it wasn't AT ALL cheesy, the author manages to intrigue you since the very first chapter. I think Veronica did a great job in NOT making Tris into a Mary Sue. The book is... raw. You can understand Tris very well, so it doesn't matter if you agree with her choices or not.
But I must say, I am concern because the rating REALLY drops from book 1 to book 3. Divergent is 4.36 (yei!), but Allegiant is 3.63 (what happeeeened there?!). And I think I spoiled myself while looking on google if Tris was blonde or not (The actress that portrais Tris is Shailene Woodley and that confused me!); and I am very frightened. :(

@SiaI HOPE SO, TOO! Gosh, the book is so good, I'm going to be so disappointed if the movie is bad :(
I am struggling with Shailene as Tris already.
Vampire Academy is on my to read list! But I don't know when I can actually read it. I heard the movie wasn't thaaat good.I saw... mmm, like a sneek peek of Divergent, was very good.
And yes, Sia, she is! I really like Shailene, and I think she is going to be an amazing Hazel... and have to say that I while I was reading Divergent, I was picturing her as Tris (because of the sneek peek). BUT, the reality is that on the book, Tris is a petit blonde. And Shailene is definitely NOT. u.u
@Melissa: You really have to read Va, it's one of my all time favourites! :)
I have to admit I don't like Shailene that much either >.<

I couldn't keep up with my reading on the week but yesterday I had a spare time and I read 50 pages. So now I'm on page 152 of Insurgent, there are new characters and new revelings.

Yes, it's weird, usually it gets better or the ratings stays the same in each book :S
Marybeth- all very good books! The perfect chemistry series is great, I really liked it! If you like stories about teens you might also like The Rules for Disappearing by Ashley Elston. It's about a family in witness protection :)
