Robynne Lozier I have just started the Perks of being a Wallflower reading challenge and the first book I have just started reading today was The Fountainhead. It looks interesting and I am actually enjoying it quite a lot.

PattyMacDotComma The Prettiest Horse in the Glue Factory is the wonderful title of popular Aussie comedian Corey White's unique memoir. He is one of those kids who fell through the cracks of "the system" and landed in some inexcusably bad foster care. It's a terrific read!

Chelsey Keathley-Jones (keathleyc) | 172 comments I'm working on The Golden Compass (His Dark Materials, #1) by Philip Pullman tonight. The amount of middle grade and YA fantasy I have been reading is really weird for me but I am loving it. Does anyone else go through genre kicks? I am also listening to The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton and am not sure how I feel yet, I am about 30 Percent through and am intrigued and want to know more but it's not what I was expecting. Hoping to finish these two in the next two days and move on to Rich People Problems (Crazy Rich Asians, #3) by Kevin Kwan and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling

I read that one a few years ago. I remember it was so creative and imaginative, and I loved every part of it.

I loved this book, the last third was my favorite, so hopefully for you as well

Chelsey Keathley-Jones (keathleyc) | 172 comments Has anyone else read The Rook?

This seemed like a book I would love but something isn't clicking and I'm having trouble getting into it. It fits a challenge prompt in all three of the challenges I'm doing for the year so I would like to finish but it might end up DNF. Wondering if it gets better, I'm five chapters in.

I've not read The Rook yet, Chelsea. My friend reviews are all over the place on this one, anywhere from 1-5 stars.

I read both of these books last year and loved them both.

Kristie | 5927 comments I just finished The Art of Hearing Heartbeats and I enjoyed it. It was a little different than I expected it to be, but I still found it engaging.

I've just started The Nowhere Man. This is the second book in the Orphan X series. It can be a little graphic, but it's definitely one that's difficult to put down.
