I'm currently reading
. I loved Hitchhiker's Guide, so I thought I would love this series too, but I'm having some trouble getting into it. I dunno, I may just be burnt out a bit. This is my 17th book since Jan 5th (I'm doing the Popsugar 2015 Reading Challenge) and that's quite a lot for me.
Ok, I didn't know whet to add this so I'm going to try here :-) I'm going to be finished with my book I'm reading on my kindle unlimited and can't decide what to pick next. I'm going to list a few here and see if anyone can help me decide :-)

Well duh!! I really hate using the phone, I can't ever see the threads very well. I will put them there or heck, I will just pick the one you said :-) thanks for the heads up. I will put them there next time. If you want to delete my msg go ahead. I picked the one you said and will go the other place next time. :-D
Ok I just read my msg and basically said the same thing three times!!! Please bare with me!! I'm phone challenged :-/
Mod
Ok thanks! Your a doll :-)

THAT's what School Spirits is about? Interesting...I look forward to reading it!

I know, right?! I have a friend who's always asking what I'm reading and whether she would like it. I always tell her the book(s) and provide a brief synopsis (or 4), but I can't read the entire book to her, y'know?? Of course I do go and and do silly stuff like sign up for Read4Reviews and then I REALLY get stressed! In the end, I wind up participating in group reads when I can and just reading whatever strikes my fancy otherwise.

I'm in aStress+autoimmune disorder = bad! I'd suggest just picking a stand-alone or a series you know you really, really like and de-stressing as best you can. Ally, Jacque, Jessica, and Savannah all gave great advice too of course (and in a far more timely manner than I did!)
P.S. I'm not a huge fan of the app either...it's so grumpy!

One is 1200 page trilogy and I'm giving myself the whole year to get it done. And yes, I have too much stress as it is so I don't need extra! Books are supposed to be fun :-) it's just lately I have gotten obsessed. I'm going to try to get more off my read list and maybe that will help !!
No worries...just keep reminding yourself that books are for fun and relaxation - NOT causing you added stress. =) Trust me, I have to do it all the time too!
It's so hard lately because I have so many I haven't read piled everywhere. I'm just going to take my time. If my books out live me before I can get to them then so be it. I certainly don't need to be stressing with my medical issues. I'm supposed to go to another world in my books, not out of my mind, although some might make you a little crazy. Ha ha :-)

I doubt there are enough hours in a lifetime to read all the books I've downloaded to my Kindle, Nook, and from my Audible account (which is outrageously expensive and I should've canceled it ages ago, but, I like several series as audiobooks, so I keep it.) Then every time I see an offer for a free book that looks even remotely interesting, I pounce on it. I think I have a problem...(and my parents wonder why I sleep all day - I'm up all night, reading!) At least it's a generally low-risk hobby.

I would call it The House of Books!! Haha :-)
I have a Nook that I saved up for 2 years to get and a Kindle my mom got me for Christmas 2 years after that. Thank goodness my mom got the larger capacity Kindle or IDK if my browser et al would still be on here! I have physical books too, but most of what I read now are ebooks, Kindle books, or I listen to audiobooks.
I am now on to
and am also finishing
on my Kindle
is taking over my life for the next couple days! Yay!
I just finished
it was really good, my husband and I watched the movie after too. Now I am reading
Just finished The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian and it was great, I would highly recommend it to YA lovers! Currently I'm reading God, No!: Signs You May Already Be an Atheist and Other Magical Tales, which is pretty crude but super funny, and Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls
I'm currently reading Love Letters to the Dead and listening to the audio book of Ultraviolet. In class, we're reading the Uglies, and everyone in the class has to read a part (which is really fun!)
Mod
Currently reading:
It's pretty good so far, though it's taking a bit to get into the action.
In between books not sure what I want to start next
I'm currently reading the count of monte cristo, bossypants by tina fey and the grimm stories

I haven't heard of Uglies, and just added it to my list to-read. Thanks!
I did read Maze Runner, and I finished it quickly, but it wasn't as good as I thought it would be. For once, I actually enjoyed the movie more (which never happens).

I am reading
and I'm really enjoying it! Kind of supernatural twist on the movie Bourne Identity so far. I'm a little over half way through it.

Aww, I loved all the
books.I'm reading
to review. It. Is. Great! Not that you could tell by the pace at which I'm reading, but it's really a fabulous book! If I weren't having some unexpected problems, I would likely have devoured it in a day or 2. I still don't doubt that I'll meet my review deadline though. =)
I just finished Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, and next I'll probably read Cinder or The City of Bones. I also might reread Sense and Sensibiliy.
Mod
Also
lets hope I can get it done this week for another boards group read.
