Though I'm planning on finishing TFIOS first. :)

IS IT GOOD?! When I read the book's review page and I found it interesting. And I'm actually planning to buy it. Should I or should I not?

Just One year by Gayle Forman - 10 pages to go
Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier - 1/4
Obsidian - just started reading it.
and i still have a lot of pending books i haven't finished which i started this year. :(

hello. im a newbie. i am interested to read that book, maganda ba?

Overall, I like 1984. I like the story because it kept me engaged enough. However, the book also talks about some sociological and philosophical issues not only because they coincide with the story, they also give us an insight of Orwell's perspective. Happy reading.

Hello everyone! I'm new here!



I just read The Virgin's Guide to Misbehaving
I am currently reading Eleanor & Park
Have a nice day! :)
>>>>>> "The Well" try ko lang kung maganda:)
edit lang kc baka mali grammar ko sorryXD

It's really a page turner but i think I did not find any growth on Thomas's character. Hoping to see it in the third book The Death Cure. I started reading it 'coz it's movie version is showing on september. Besides it's very rare nowadays to find a HERO(male protagonist) in DYSTOPIAN novels. Most DYSTOPIAN novels that we have right now are stories about HEROINES(female protagonists) that became so dominion and powerful along the story.
AFTER I'M DONE READING THE MAZE RUNNER, I'LL READ The Eye of Minds. ANOTHER JAMES DASHNER NOVEL.

Murakami's style of storytelling unfolds at such a pace and with a certain beat/rhythm that reading it feels so serene and relaxing. Excellent for a cool, quiet morning or a rainy day. And he has this way of making the most mundane situations more interesting and relateable than they usually are.
So I'm enjoying this so far.

Before this, I finished re-reading The Giver last week.

And for August, I'll be reading Fear of Flying (for this group's discussions) and The Name of the Wind for another group's August discussions :)

I love Locke Lamora and Jean Tannen! I haven’t started with Book 2 because I also want to read the The Kingkiller Chronicles but alas, I haven’t started reading that as well because I am (view spoiler)

Waaahhh I've been waiting for someone to reply to my message! Hi1 Nice to meet you, Ycel! :D :D
The prologue alone was intriguing like hell, and the drama in the first reminiscence chapter made me teary-eyed. Too many JeanLocke feels it's crazy! Hopefully you'll get to start reading it very soon. :)

I'll try to line up Red Seas Under Red Skies as soon as possible. I want to fast track meeting Sabetha so I have to read Book 2 stat. Hopefully I can join you for Book 3 if life does not get in the way :)
