Nicole and I would love it if you could join us!

[Nicole - Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die-]

I'm excited for this, this will be my first book by this author

[Vicki]

His name looks familiar but I'm not sure what else he's written & I'm not home.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

He's also written
I met him when I met Maggie Stiefvater this last fall. He was really sweet and funny!

I'm in for this one too!

[Vicki]

YAY!!! Happy to have you aboard, Trisha!

I know I recognize him so I guess it's from looking at his other books, but I haven't read any of them yet.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

okay, so no chapter numbers (ugh!!)

so I read about 100 pages

Last full chapter I read: Solve for X

this is seriously so adorable AND hilarious! OMG
I'm laughing so hard at times I have to put the book down!

Julia(view spoiler)[ I'm torn. I kind of want her to notice just how sweet he is and how great he is to her....but now he's kind of moving on so I'm not sure I want her to take that away from him
I'm so sad she's worked so hard for her mom to just love her (hide spoiler)]

and OMG her poor math teacher!! hahahah!!!! that poem and the tickle! hahahah!!!!

Dave(view spoiler)[ I'm torn here too. he's waited so long for her, pined so long for her - that I'm kind of glad he's found Gretchen. but I'm not sure if I want him to give up on Julia or not...ugh, it all depends on if Julia is finally going to see he loves her (hide spoiler)]

[Vicki]

YAY! I'm glad it's a good one and funny too!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Through part 1

Julia(view spoiler)[ I'm so sad she just hasn't seen Dave. She's so worried about her mom and she's a little self absorbed. :/ (hide spoiler)]

Dave(view spoiler)[ I'm glad he's getting along and making new friends. I think he needs to rattle Julia so she's stop taking him for granted
(hide spoiler)]

So I'm posting this from my phone - if it posts wrong, I'll fix it as soon as I get home :)

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm done.

I can't believe it.....

Dave(view spoiler)[ I loved he and Julia together. I spent the whole book wanting them to be together.
I just couldn't side with him being with Gretchen. :/ (hide spoiler)]

Julia(view spoiler)[ My heart broke for her. she took so long to see how great he was. if only she'd seen it before he'd given up (hide spoiler)]

[Vicki]

Wait, what? You just started! LOL

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

lol no no, I started back on the 7th :)

[Vicki]

Oh, okay, I guess I didn't notice that part. LOL

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

HAHAHAH!! no worries. I know, the days are just FLYING by!!

[Vicki]

Man, I need to start this one. I have about 5 books to read for my 18th two month challenge that I've really fallen behind on due to the Fully Loaded Challenge. Ugh!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I was just looking at that 2 month challenge too!
I have no idea how to squeeze in my last 2 books! ugh! Book problems! LOL

[Vicki]

LOL I know! There's no way I can do it all but I'm not sure what I can/will let go.

[Vicki]

I STILL really do plan to read this!

[Vicki]

I am still planning to read this but it's going to be after Sept. 30.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yeah, no worries

do you want me to archive it and then bring it back out when you're ready?
or leave it here?

[Vicki]

Please leave it for me. :)

[Kristal]

Hello,

I'm new to this group I know. I just finished this book this morning. I know that is much later than what you all had listed at the dates for the reading of this story. Sorry about that.

I loved this book. I have posted my review below on the link to my blog. I hope that it encourages more of the readers in this group to read his work.

TRISHA WUT. You met Maggie Stiefvater?!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I DID!!! I DID!!!! I know, I freaked out a little too - but stayed cool and calm when I was around her (I didn't want to scare her) lol

:)
she is HILARIOUS and very sweet!

[Grace Meredith]

Haha, I would have completely flipped out. She seems so young and sweet! Have you read The Raven King yet? And did she mention her weird obsession with cars?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yes! I read The Raven King! LOVED it! Oh man, it was GOOD!

and yes!! she told a few stories about cars (and her love of driving, fixing up, working on, etc)
but she also talked about traveling and her art....ha! and a few stories about when she was young - when she was in a band! LOL She was really sweet

[Grace Meredith]

She was in a band? I have to listen to her songs! Do you have the name?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I don't! She said she was really bad - but I think she was the drummer (if I'm remembering right!) It was a high school band. lol

I know, I had a tough time believing it sucked but she was pretty adamant, no matter how many times I (and others) tried to argue :)
