Kat L (k4atk4) | 231 comments This week is going to be the worst ever! My sister was visiting me on her way to the seaside for a holiday. She asked me to lend her my kindle, so she could entertain herself (she went with two guys whose interests only include beer and laying on the beach). It was her birthday last week and I couldnt say no. What!!!!! Now I have to read off my computer or my phone. I am addicted to Kindle. My harmless substitute for drugs.

You're the best sister ever!!! Hang in there. Hopefully you won't experience missing Kindle withdrawal.

Also, I feel the best way to post an image or gif if to host the image or gif yourself on a hosting site like Photobucket.com. Once you upload it there they give you a link to copy of the HTML code. Like this:

 photo thumbs-up-bro_zps444bf29b.gif

That way if you are just copying a link from elsewhere it doesn't change on you and you lose your image later on.

Download the Overdrive Media app and look for your library..... then you have access to so many e-books your eyes will bleed!!!

Vega_girl | 6624 comments Yes Chris, it's amazing depending on your area!!!! My library is insanely awesome they are very good about having the newest stuff out there. Ten Tiny Breaths (Ten Tiny Breaths, #1) by K.A. Tucker and the Beautiful Bastard series that I read were from the e-library!!

I'll have to think about that one. But I'll be back with some.

Erika | 9482 comments Okay, I'm not going to recommend books that you already have on you TBR. These are just some of my favorite books. Not all are all YA.


Talk Before Sleep by Elizabeth Berg This is a Chick lit. But it's about friendship, lose and love.
P.S. I Love You by Cecelia Ahern Also Chick Lit but so much better than the movie (Not surprisingly)
The Host (The Host, #1) by Stephenie Meyer Another movie pick but so good.
Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden Another movie pick
True Love Story by Willow Aster I would say this is maybe New Adult but so much better.
Every Day (Every Day #1) by David Levithan Not a typical YA book, but I just loved it.
Almost by Anne Eliot A YA book. Just great!!

Now I have tons more but these are just a few. If you end up reading any of these I would do a buddy read with you.

Niiiice list, Erika! I've only read two of those, so I'll be adding them to my to-reads too. I loved Everyday and Almost!!

Vega_girl, here are a couple from my favorites that aren't in your to reads.

On the Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta - YA
Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson - YA
Unteachable by Leah Raeder - Mature YA controversial subject so read the synopsis to make sure you don't mind this kind of book. I loved the writing style of this on so much!

I guess I better read The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky . I guess I'm the only one left to read it.

I know every line in the movie. I've watched it a billion times. I hope you'll like it. It leaves a few parts out, but it is still SO GOOD.
