I just finished Monsters of Men, Entwined, and have set aside So Silver Bright. I have All These Things I've Done and I'm really liking it, but for some reason I really, REALLY want to read that QUEENS THIEF series by Megan Whalen Turner. Problem is, I don't have them!

I've never heard of it. Is it good? Is it one of her shorter princess stories, or an actual novel like Ella Enchanted or Fairest?
I haven't read it yet. And it just came out back in June. It's a full novel like Ella and Fairest and Two Princesses.My favorite GCL was either Ella Enchanted of Two Princesses
i want to finish the percy jackson series what do you think of it guys?i read the sea of monsters and the titan's curse
i didn't read the first because i saw the movie
Two Princesses wasn't quite as good as I remembered. I don't know why. I still love it, but not as much as Ella Enchanted. I'll see if I can get a hold of Two Castles.

You need to read the first as well as finish the series. The movie literally had almost nothing to do with the book.

Yeah, I need to see if I can get ahold of it too. My birthday's Wednesday...hmm....maybe I can talk them into getting it for me......
And I know what you mean about Two Princesses, it's the same for me. And Fairest also. I just am not as big of a fan of Fairest as I once was.
I just read The Eye of The Crystal Ball and I have to say it is the best book I have read all year! You should really try it, it was amazing.
Thanks, Natalie!I need a new copy of EE. One, I can't find mine; two, it's all beat up (and 3- it has the movie cover which I'm not a huge fan of.)
A Tale of Two Castles was good. I'd say my favorite is still Ella Enchanted, though. Did you read the Princess Tales? I really like those too.
I read a couple of them. They were pretty cute. Ella Enchanted is one of those rare books that just screams at you. It has absolutely everything in it.
i just finished Code Talkers. It's really well writen with a lot of WW2 facts. It's just kinda hard to get into it from just the begining though.
That's good to know, Kate. :)I read most of the Princess Tales, but i've never finished them.
EE really DOES. Magic, love, fairies, evil, mystery, adventure. It's just one of those perfect combinations.
My name is James. The two books I am reading right now are Alanna: The First Adventure and Old Yeller.
I just finished Looking for Alaska, I read it again after I finished it. It's truly one of the best books I've ever read, I think it's life changing. Some people disagree, but a lot of people are with me on this ^_^ I love it so much, I want to go and read it again, but I feel like I'm neglecting my other books LOL.

Gah! I really need to get my hands on that!

Right now I'm reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in preparation for the movie, of course. :)
But of course! I need to reread that, Swifty. Although its not like I don't already know just about every single detail about it- that's what I get for reading them over and over and over and over and over.......you get the point. ;)
Inkheart for the three hundredth time :)Many Waters- Madeleine L'Engle (which I'm not enjoying very much)
and
Nightbirds on Nantucket- Joan Aiken

So I've forgotten almost everything, because the last time I read it was when it came out like four years ago.
My friends want me to read Cirque Du Freak. And I love Inkheart, just not the rest of the series.
Currently reading: Nothing Pink by Mark Hardy
that stinks. I had to stop watching it because the kid im babysitting wanted to go down ot the park- and i think it's over now, anyways.
I got to watch almost all of it, actually. (I had to be somewhere at 2 and I didn't leave until 1:50 so I could watch the last bit.) The speeches almost made me cry. :)
