No, I haven't read any of her books but I have read

I'll keep you informed on when I'm gonna start reading Lola and the Boy Next Door, I've been meaning to read Pride and Prejudice. However, I'm a little intimidated by the fact that it's a classic and I mostly stick to 2000s romance books. :/

I may join the Jellicoe Road buddy read. When will it start?"
I am doing two buddy reads right now (one of which David and Jenny ar..."
Yep that should work, and it would be great to have you with us Becky!!

Yes! Love that book, can't wait to read the sequel :)


Sounds good!
Yay! So excited to have a monthly read so many want to read. I am going to try to get the audiobook for it. becky, Jenny, and David just let me know when you want to start Jellicoe - like I said I figured 2-3 weeks???


It doesn't take long, the whole thing is mostly action!
I am not sure the last time I posted what I was reading - still listening to
and enjoying it so far and just started
. I am also listening to a non YA book
and am enjoying that as well.




I'll pick my copy up soon and then start by next weekend (probably). I'm currently reading




Oooh, I love the Ascendance books! It's horrible waiting for the third book.

Yeah, definitely got into it now! It's so good. :D

You definitely should, I absolutely love this series! :)
Oh, *headsmack* Actually I was getting that confused with another book. :P I did actually read the first book in that series. I thought it was okay, but I never got around to reading the other ones. Maybe I still will ... although it's been like a few years since I read the first one.

Oh okay :p I think the second book in the series is definitely the best one, so it gets better! It's one of my favourite series so I really recommend it. :)
Cassi you always have these new books I have never heard of! Let me know if you like that one please :)
I should be done with Flesh and Bone
today. Just started Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
on audiobook.

Heidi, it's funny that we started reading Quiet at the same time. ;D I don't usually read non-fiction but my mom urged me to read it because ... well, I'm super introverted, haha. And I'm finding it very informative and I definitely relate to a lot of it.

I like it a lot so far. I am not really a non fiction reader either but right now I am reading Quiet and the Rob Lowe book and both are keeping me interested. Like I told you I didn't even realize I was introverted until I read something about that book a few months ago (I have been waiting for it forever from my library). I scored like 15 out of 20 on the scale and was like, "Oh so that is why I love to stay home so much and get crabby when people interrupt me while I'm working".

I really enjoyed Savvy and am reading it to my kids. I liked the brother-sister relationship between Fish and Mibs. Of course, I tend to like junior fiction more than YA, but it's nice that this group still lets me stay. :)

Yep, I'm in!! I've had almost zero reading time because of the wedding I was attending, but I should finish up

I made a thread where you can go and try to set up future buddy reads if anyone wants to find others to read something they have in their tbr pile at the same time :)

Sure, I will join you guys for that, just let me know when!


How is this one? I have looked at it a few times."
I am happily surprised with this one, it is really good! It's reminds me a lot of Thirteen Reasons Why. :)

Karen I am so excited about them reading Jellicoe for the first time! I remember I was lost for like 200 pages!
