My random color was RED, so I'll look to see what fits. :o)

Irene (raenne) I got some kind of light blue - like the ocean on Gisbelle's pic. I think I'll read Let It Snow by John Green but am not sure at all! I might fail as this challenge as well, but yeah, I'll try.

message 17: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Remember that book Still Alice? The one that I've always said changed my life? They're making a movie of it. I think it comes out in December. :)

I remember you said that, wow a movie? I hope the movie doesn't ruin the book.

I watched the trailer and it didn't remind me of the book at all. I pictured Alice so different and didn't recognize the scenes, so we'll see. I will watch it but I know it won't meet the quality of the book.

message 35: by Emily (new)

Emily Not yet but I think I will give it a try! Sounds interesting !


message 36: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi Finished with my book. :) Althea & Oliver by Cristina Moracho


message 37: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Congrats!


message 38: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi Thanks! :)


message 39: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments How you like the book?


message 40: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi It was fabulous, a must-read. I loved Althea, sure she made some stupid mistakes, but she learned from them and became even more of a kick-ass character. Oliver was a hit-miss, with his illness (especially the times he woke up again) he was at times a bit annoying. But later on I started liking him more.
And while I saw quite a few people didn't like the ending, I think it fitted perfectly. I am happy they went with this and didn't force things together. :)


message 41: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Cool. The cover is really ugly in my idea, so I'm glad to hear the book is worth reading.


message 42: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi Yeah, I agree with you on that. The cover is pretty ugly, though it is a very pretty yellow colour. :) I am really glad I bought the book and tried it out and loved it.


message 43: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Finished Lost Voices (Lost Voices, #1) by Sarah Porter 11/29 (2 Stars) :(
