That's the better way to read them - because after Dwellers, you are going to love Country series! And how they all inter-connect.

Ok thanks. I think Along for the Ride was the one I tried and wasn't into. I was just wondering if it was the particular book or the actual author that wasn't for me - I think it is the author. Not my style - but a lot of others love her.

Harold, I completely forgot about the writing up the descriptions for Kira and Celaena. Do you still need me to do that? I can do it this weekend if so!

Yay! I'm enjoying it but there's a lot of gross stuff! Lol

I know I was officially creeped out with Hunter!


I have not heard of this one - I like the cover!"
Yeah, it's been on my shelf for a while so thought I'd pick it up, it's good but nothing special! :/

That would be nice, thank you. :)

Yeah, I'm kind of amazed I didn't have nightmares with that part, it was just disgusting!


I really need to read this one, too! So many books, so little time!

I hope so David. I love mysteries and YA books and this seems like a little of both.

I really liked the 5th Wave--but I really didn't like Cassie's POV very much.


I was wondering how it was going. I occasionally check your profile to see if your finished.

I'm going to try to take a Gone Girl break and shove in Shivver and Savvy and then go back but I read like 1/3rd of it and then now i just stare at that book and feel like it stares back. I need a break but I am loving it its just exhausting.

Hahahaha - I know the feeling too well! I refuse to read anymore books by that author because it wore me out. I am glad I read it though - it is like a bad relationship or something you know it is bad for you but you keep going back for more!

Savvy is delightfully refreshing (as I just quickly read the first chapter between doing my other adult duties. haha )
I feel like I haven't checked this group in forever! Anyway, I am reading:
I'm not too far into either one yet. I like Game of Thrones so far. But Sisterland is pretty dull, and from what I heard it doesn't get much better ... Hmm.

bwahahaha! You are so giving me flashbacks! I powered through the last 1/4 of that book just to get the monkey off my back!

I liked GOT but after all the things I have heard about favorite characters randomly being killed off in the series I can not get myself to invest the energy in the next book!

Looking for Alaska was good but Fault and Will Grayson are my favorite Green books :) Woot woot for Jellicoe! I plan to start my re-read in a few minutes.

Where is Lloyd lately? He is our resident comic reader. I have never really given the current comics a try - my hubby got the Watchmen from a co-worker but I have yet to check it out.

Yes, I did like Fault in Our Stars better than Looking for Alaska, but it was really good for a first book!


I think you should try them out. I just finished Mercury, it only took me 2 hours at the max. If you're looking for a quick, easy, read you should definitely pick up a comic book! Plus most of the time the artwork is absolutely gorgeous :)

My son read most of the Bone books. He also loves the Amulet books. He's 8 but reads at a 6th grade level. Is the content in

Uh oh ... haha. XD Well I already ordered the second book from eBay (and noticed it's more than 1000 pages, yikes). But I'm hoping to make it through the whole series.
