The Forgetting and The Knowing really were great... I'm glad I read them.
I'm jealous of you getting to meet Scott Kelly! I'd love to meet him. He combines my love of books and my love of science and space related stuff (which I'm aware doesn't sound at all scientific) so it would be totally awesome to meet him. Of course, I'd probably be fangirling so badly I wouldn't be able to say much beyond, "I can't believe I'm getting to meet you!" But still...
Victoria, I know I will be tongue tied when meeting Scott next weekend!! I met Jim Lovell years ago right as Tom Hanks was making Apollo 13 and playing him. I’m still freaked out that I met him!! I’m actually bringing the book Lovell wrote with Jeffrey Kluger to have signed by Kluger at the festival as well! I bought his Apollo 8 book! I’m wearing my NASA shirt that day!!! I have loved NASA and our space program for 4 decades!!!
Oda, living in Phoenix has such great perks!! I have the Tucson book festival in March each year and then Phoenix ComiCon every May/June! Sooooo many other authors will be at ComiCon this year so I’ve been spending so much on books! I’ll need another bookshelf very soon!
I’m so lucky to have met such amazing friends through this group! This week, Jenny, Nancy, and Jen from this group are all flying in for the book festival! Talk about an amazing girl’s trip!!

Woohooo for NASA!!!

I've read these two in a row two weeks ago, they're gonna be some of my favourites ! They remind me of the first "grown-up" sci-fi book I read Le Dieu de lumière My father lent me this book when I was around 12 and done with all the norby series (love them so much !!) and I was totally stricken by the end at that time.
The Forgetting is pretty rich with surprises, and I liked the final answer to all the questions about this city. The knowing is great too, but not in that mysterious way, it is more suspense than huge discoveries.

You're so lucky!

I totally agree with this part of your comment: "The Forgetting is pretty rich with surprises, and I liked the final answer to all the questions about this city. The knowing is great too, but not in that mysterious way, it is more suspense than huge discoveries."
I finished
4 stars, it was a fun fictional read about a historical couple
Finished
3 stars I wish I could have liked this one more, but its just wasn't my thing sadly. The first half was pretty good, but it went downhill in the 2nd half.
4.5 stars, loved this, it was so good! So happy I'm meeting the author this weekend :)
Next I'm reading
and

I felt the same as The Hazel Wood. Ended up giving it 3.5 stars. Solid 4 star read until towards the end. Was not thrilled with that ending, and it got REALLY weird the last 100 pages or so. But overall, a fun read, very unique.

It takes me about 20 pages to get into it each time, too. I don't think that's bad. Once I do, I'm completely sucked in!

I adore Ready Player One!
I had trouble the first time I tried to read Red Rising, too. It was too depressing for me at that time. I put it down, eventually came back to it and loved it! So I'd suggest trying something else and coming back to it when you're more in the mood for that.

I loved Ready Player One when I read that recently. Looking forward to the movie.


Well, I'm no quitter, so I keep on reading. I've reached a point in the book when things might turn into action instead of sorrow, so there's hope ! (I'm just at 12%) The intrigue of the book has a grip on me, I want to know how the series end, so I suppose I'm up to reading all the three books ;)

It's gonna be released on the 28th here in France... I can't wait !

Not sure what the UK's official release date is off the top of my head, but I almost never see things until they're on DVD, because I prefer to watch movies at home, so either way I'll be waiting a bit... Unfortunately.

Just finished
on audio and think I'll do yet another reread of
on audio before the movie comes out next week. Eep!!
I'm almost finished with
