Just finished . It was a great sequel to The False Prince. I can't wait for the third book to come out.

Not sure what I'll read next. I'll probably browse the library tomorrow and pick something that way.

Woot woot Karen & David these are both en route to my library for me so I hope to get them by this weekend :)

[Karen’s Library]

Yay! I'm ready whenever you are, Heidi.

Karen wrote: "Yay! I'm ready whenever you are, Heidi."

Well I should finish Eleanor & Park by Friday so hopefully my library gets The dead Of Night by then and I can start it right afterwards -- I'll let you know. It will take me longer than you because I am listening to it but I will listen in the car where I get more "reading time" :)

[Brigid ✩]

Finished:



It was all right, over all.

And now I am reading:



Which is okay so far, but I'm only like a fifth of the way through it or something. :P

[Heidi]

Brigid I am on disk 5 out of 7 of Eleanor & Park and I am so far loving it more than Anna and the French Kiss. Park is so sweet. I will let you know my final thoughts when I'm done :)

[Brigid ✩]

Ah wow, more than Anna?! I will definitely have to check it out. I've been hearing nothing but good things about it. :)

It is more "real world" than Anna - I don't want to give too much away but the least one of them has a lot of things going on in their lives that you don't find in normal fluffy romances. It is super sweet - but not throw up sweet, more like makes you smile sweet (does that make sense)?? I still love Anna (well more St. Clair) though!!

[Autumn]

currently reading:

all three are wonderful but good lord the fellowships so slow! its taken me 6 months to get 93% through! i keep having to return it to the library though... i'm really enjoying cannery row though. quite nice. very base.
planning on starting very soon (i.e. just now checked them out from the library):
(vol 3-8)
im going on a comic book binge, cant read any novels while ive still got fellowship, itd slow me down.

I really enjoyed Wonder

[Heidi]

UnWholly is getting intense! I only have about 1.5 hours left (It was like 13 hours!). I hate Starkey - grrrrrr!

[David]

Ha! I can just picture you cursing him as you read. Glad you're enjoying it :)

[Heidi]

David wrote: "Ha! I can just picture you cursing him as you read. Glad you're enjoying it :)"

It's more like shaking my fists at this point David! Urg! I am so nervous for Conner!

[David]

Ha, don't accidentally throw your kindle!

[Heidi]

Karen & David both our buddy reads are available at my library to pick up ( and ).
Any idea when you two want to start either of them?? Do you want to start a thread here or in David's group (I am fine either way :)

p.s. I have had a bad sinus infection all week and so have been a zombie (no pun intended) every night and not able to read :( I feel about 40% better today so hopefully I can get back on track when it is buddy read time! I had hoped to have my two library books I already checked out read by now :( Oh well!

[Brigid ✩]

Aww Heidi sorry about your sinus infection. :( Hope you feel all better soon!

I just finished:



Mixed feelings about it. I think I liked it over all, though. :P

I am about to start:

[Harold]

I'm finally done with my schoolwork! Expect the next contest to commence tonight!

[Gwennie]

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Double yay!!!! Congrats Harold!

Aww hope you feel even better tomorrow (although I did laugh at your zombie joke and then felt bad about it).

Unless there are people here who want to join, we should do the Flesh & Bone one in my group as Jenny for sure wants to join and I think a couple others expressed interest (although they'll probably bail, as people do). I probably need a few days to finish up a beta read I'm doing, so either mid next week or the weekend, if that works? I'll ask Jenny too :) yay can't wait!!!

[Karen’s Library]

Heidi (Seriously. Trust me.) wrote: "Karen & David both our buddy reads are available at my library to pick up ( and ).

I can start tomorrow or Sunday (or later) on The Dead of Night, Heidi. We can do that one in this group as NO ONE else has expressed interest. hehehhe.. :)

[Harold]

The contest is up. If you guys don't like the topic, let me know, give me a suggestion for a new topic, and if enough people agree with the new topic I'll change it. But please do be sure to let me know soon.

Sounds good (your group - next week :)

[Heidi]

Sounds good. I finished up Eleanor and Park today so I can go whenever you are ready. I"ll start a buddy read folder!

[Heidi]

Loved Eleanor & Park. Hopefully Jenny will follow me here to discuss (and anyone else who has read it).

Jenny I agree with your thoughts on it resembling Lola (I have not read Pushing Limits so don't know about that but am off to look it up). E & P definitely had the snarkiness of a Stephanie Perkins book BUT the real life stuff reminded me of my favorite author Melina Marchetta. It was like a cross between Stephanie and Melina - how could you not love that?

[Heidi]

Just starting Perfect Scoundrels (Kat is a great character for the protag contest btw!) Plan to start the audio of The Dead of Night tomorrow for a buddy read with Karen. Woot woot!

[Cassi aka Snow White]

I need to read more of the Heist Society series. I loved the first book. (Enough that I bought it and gave it to my mom) but never seem motivated enough to buy the next. Maybe now that I kinda own the first I will.

[Jenny]

Awww thanks...you made me feel special lol! Yes I agree, Pushing the Limits is very gritty with lots of real life drama, that's where I saw it in E & P. Lola and the Boy Next Door remind me of the little oddities and the snarkiness. The ending (view spoiler)[ I think it was "I Love You" and I do think they start talking again, and I am going to BELIEVE with all my heart that they have a HEA..even though that's probably not realistic. But if Echo and Noah can do it in Pushing the Limits, they can too! (hide spoiler)]

Oh I wish I had though of Kat, I LOVE her! Also loved this book! This is such a fun series!

[Heidi]

Yay Jenny! Another Heist Society fan. Cassi you need to get to book two! I am plowing through book 3 -- so good so far!

[Jenny]

Heidi, there is also a short story called "Double Crossed", it was free at one time on Amazon and B&N. It combines the characters from Heist Society and the Gallagher Girls. I have not read the Gallagher Girls, but after this story I want to! Really good novella!

Good to know! I think I have the first GG book in my Kindle but have not read them yet either.

p.s. I finally read your Eleanor & Park spoiler (my ipod won't let me see those!) and I 100% agree! *sigh* I am still thinking about that book today!

[Heidi]

We could use some votes on this quick 2 day poll to break the 3 way tie for the July group read thanks!! http://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/85...

E & P stayed in my head for a long time, too! In fact its been about 2 or 3 weeks, and its still there! lol

[Heidi]

Oh Jenny! That is not good news. I am glad I read the 3rd Heist Society book right afterwards because that was a really good distraction - I think it was my favorite in the series so far!

[Jenny]

YAY! So glad you loved Perfect Scoundrels, I did too :)

[Heidi]

Hale and Kat are awesome together!

[Heidi]

Wendy F I hope to start The Demon King on audio in the next day or so - wish me luck!

[Heidi]

I finally thought to read the Patrick Ness short stories on my Nook Color (I just looked up my email account and clicked and it worked). Why did not I not think of that before? Anywho I read them all. Yay!

[Jenny]

I finished and that finally got me out of the funk of E & P! Their story was an even bigger train wreck!

Started , but only read 100 pages in and thought I would read something else for awhile, since its kind of depressing and I'm already in a funk as it is! So I tried ,which is also kind of depressing, but I'm hooked lol!

I thought Rouge was pretty good! I was impressed and LOVED Roland.
