Alyssa | 134 comments I had the stomach flu this week so it was hard to read at all. I'm still recovering and won't be able to finish my third book for this week. Sorry!

No need to apologize. Reading was probably last on your mind. Just get well.

Sorry missed your post.

You too Danielle, I hope you feel better.

My sister told me they're giving Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince on TV so I'm going to watch the rest of the movie with her. It has been awhile :) Anyway, goodnight ladies.

Hope you feel better soon, Alyssa.

Goodnight.

Oh, no. I live in Washington State, it's only 5:18pm here. Danielle lives in the UK, Tea lives in Croatia, and Audrey lives in Belgium, so it is after 1am for Danielle and 2am for Tea and Audrey.

Sarah | 3273 comments Oh Karla, we are neighbors. I am in Portland, OR.


message 670: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments Well poop. Oryx and Crake would have worked for dystopia. Not my favorite genre, I am reading both crime/thriller/mystery stuff this week.

Cool! I live in Federal Way.

I don't have a Dystopian either. I have to finish a book I've already started for another challenge.

Sarah | 3273 comments I could squeeze in The Year of the Flood (MaddAddam Trilogy, #2) by Margaret Atwood , the second book after Oryx and Crake, which would count for the genre and Y - a difficult letter, but I may not finish The Woman in White this week. Would that be better?

If you would rather read that book, then I'd say go for it. But, if you want to read The Woman in White, we can always wait and see what the rest of the team wants to read. It's up to you.

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments Too bad I can't reread Hunger Games. I think I've done it less than 6 months ago. I should have something dystopian. Need to check reader and computer to see what works, but still being lazy in the bed with the book. It'll have to wait little longer :P


message 676: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa | 134 comments I wish I had Allegiant this week, but I won't be able to get it. I'm too far away on the list from my library.

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments Clockwork Angel is tagged as dystopian by 69 people. But not many letters that work. :(

I haven't read that yet, but isn't Tessa in it because that work work for T? :)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5771 comments I've got The Eternity Cure and is tagged dystopian by 369 people and it works for A or S with character Allie Sekemoto. So I can read this if no one else has anything.

Yeah, and that's only letter in (as far as I know).
I've started reading it few months ago (yep) but since it's almost the same as Mortal Instruments, I just can't do it. I start, read one chapter,have serious deja vu and then give up.

Danielle if you planed to read that one (and not reading it because of us), yeah could you read it?
If not, I'll find something else. Clockwork was on my reader, that's why I've put it here.

Btw, I can reread Hunger Games. I've read it exactly 6 months (and a week) ago :P


message 684: by Audrey Jane (new)

Audrey Jane | 1853 comments I just went to check what I had on my ereader. I have Altered, so I will read a bit tonight and see if it grabs me. It can also work for D, S and T. I will keep you posted!

I wasn't planning to read if yet, but found that it works for this week. So if you or Audrey cover this weeks genre, I'll keep it for when I'm ready for it.


message 686: by Audrey Jane (new)

Audrey Jane | 1853 comments No okay, ignore that. I'm not going to be difficult about it, I'm going to read Altered :)

Haha no, I read some reviews from friends and readers I'm following that have pretty much similar taste in books and that I trust. I hope it's good. I will share you my findings when I'm finished :)

message 691: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments Well even if more than one of us reads for the genre I an do either The Woman in White, which would give us a P, or The Year of the Flood, which would give us a Y. The Flood also is my Y book I need to read for my A-Z challenge.

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments How many those assassin shifters are there? :P
Are they any good, since you go through them one after another?


message 694: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Aug 17, 2014 11:32AM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5771 comments There are like 23 at the moment, I've just finished #18. They are quick, easy reads. Are they any good? Well they are ok. They are a sort of guilty pleasure, not really good, but I can't seem to stop reading them. There are quite a few issues with them and I have to suspend belief while reading.

Also they cover loads of letters, that's why I've been reading them all lately.
