message 2001: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Well that was a given. Most adaptations are faster paced than the book that they're based off of.


message 2002: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) | 2729 comments Yeah. I just don't know for sure yet how to compare them. I'm not far enough along yet apparently. Thinking I will finish it within an hour and a half, though.


message 2003: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Cool! It's a book that sucks you in. If I had owned a copy in 6th grade when my teacher was reading it to us, I probably would have been done in about a week.


message 2004: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) | 2729 comments Cools! It's not even that long. Only 170 pages.


message 2005: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments I might have been done in a day or so, actually.


message 2006: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) | 2729 comments Right! LOL. I thought I would be done with it yesterday, but the computer kept me distracted haha. I will be finished today, though. Reading it right now.


message 2007: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Hahaha, yeah, the computer does that.


message 2008: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments I need to finish my book today: Why We Broke Up Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler


message 2009: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Hahaha, I need to finish Ella Enchanted today. I have books out from the library (including EE) so that i can catch up with my goal.


message 2010: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments Ah, that's a good idea Rae.


message 2011: by Whitney :) (new)

Whitney :) (wvn1998) | 1808 comments Pretty Little Liars By: Sara Shepard?!?! I forgot who it's by. I think thats correct though.


message 2012: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments Yeah, it is. They are so much different than the show. O.o


message 2013: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Yep! It's Sara Shepard. I've actually never seen the show, I've read the first several books though


message 2014: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments I've read the first two, but my sister's read them all and has told me everything.


message 2015: by Whitney :) (new)

Whitney :) (wvn1998) | 1808 comments I didn't even know there was a show on them?!?!? Is the show or books better?


message 2016: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments Oh, definatly the books. I haven't read them all, but from what my sister has told me.. And the show is so, so, unrealistic. And they aren't keeping anything the same that's in the books.


message 2017: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Well, if it was movies, then they would be fairly true, but they need to deviate a bit for a TV Show


message 2018: by Whitney :) (new)

Whitney :) (wvn1998) | 1808 comments ok... so i should stick to the books instead of jsut watching the show?


message 2019: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments Yes.


message 2020: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments Probably.


message 2021: by Whitney :) (new)

Whitney :) (wvn1998) | 1808 comments ok thx


message 2022: by Rebekah Faith (new)

Rebekah Faith (musicalradiance) | 6788 comments You're welcome!


message 2023: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) | 2729 comments :) i vote you read AND watch. they're both good.


message 2024: by natalie (new)

natalie | 5047 comments I watch the show, but I suggest the book more.

I really want to read this book, but I got punished so no books till New Year! HOW CAN I SURVIVE?!

What do you think of Before I Fall? I tried reading it a few months back, but I didn't like it.


message 2040: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) | 2729 comments I loved it! Even with the months of space between my reading (super-busy and never had time to read it), I still really enjoyed it! It taught me a lot for sure. It's a really good read. 5 stars from me.

Not even from the library? I would die! That's half the yea! (Although it's ironic that taking books away is a parent's way of punishing a child. Most want them to read more.)

@Emmaredfern: That's a great book. I love Eba Ibbotson. I'm so sad she died.


message 2043: by [deleted user] (new)

I almost want to find some way of sneaking Danna books, just because I fundamentally disagree of taking away books as a way of punishment.

On topic: still reading The Kingdom Keepers; been having a rough time of it lately and not much energy to do much but sleep.


message 2044: by Zakiya (new)

Zakiya LadyWings (zladywings) | 2729 comments Finished Her Dear and Loving Husband (Loving Husband, #1) by Meredith Allard . starting Night World, No. 2 Dark Angel; The Chosen; Soulmate (Night World, #4-6) by L.J. Smith

Wpw...Harsh punishment much? My parents worst punishment is taking books from my shelf. Never the one that Im reading.


message 2047: by Miss Amelia (new)

Miss Amelia (missameliatxva) that does suck. I remember growing up, when my mom wanted to punish me, she'd take away my beanie babies and hide them in her closet. :S

Just finished QUEEN OF ATTOLIA and currently not sure what to read next:
The Girl in the Steel Corset, The Name of the Star, Carrier of the Mark, Variant or Prophecy of the Sisters
