You know what, you are right! She was very self -absorbed! I loved Q though. Did you read An Abundance of Katherines? It reminded me of this in a way, because it was quirky but a little lighter. I love his friendships and secondary characters! And humor!

Abundance is the only book of his I have not read yet. My favorite by him is actually a split author book Will Grayson, Will Grayson . Gah I loved that book. It is also one of my all time favorite audiobooks.

[Jenny]

I've read Looking For Alaska, loved it. There is a major twist halfway through the book,and the second half is "tougher" to read...but I've read much worse! I thought it was very good, especially since its his debut novel!

I finished loved it. I forgot how much I hated Mal in it though :(

Finished and it was an okay ending. I def have mixed feelings on this series.

Also finished a reread of and I loved it even more the second time!

Right now reading Good so far!

[Kaylani]

I have to finish daughter of smoke and bone by 6pm tonight. haha. So there's that.

And then I will finish Out of the Easy.

Then I will move on to Dorothy Must die, The Knife of Never Letting go (finish), Code Name Verity (finish), Divergent (finish), Gone Girl (finish)

And keep going from there :)

[Heidi]

I skipped the Selection series Jenny. Something about the author making comments or something.

Good luck on all your finishes Kaylani!!

[Heidi]

I am reading Fools Rush in . I think this is her first official published book and can kind of tell but it is still enjoyable so far. I love Kristan Higgins :)

[Kaylani]

Jenny, I really like it! It took just a little while to get used to the way it is told, but then it really takes off! Funny!!! But very much a gripping story as well. I am hoping to finish it today.

That is good to know about Looking for Alaska. I definitely want to read it now, as much as I am loving the other John Green books. Thanks, Jenny!

[Kaylani]

Thanks for recommending Jellicoe Road Heidi! I wouldn't have picked it up randomly at the library if it wasn't for your recommendation and I am petty sure I need to buy it now. I LOVED it.

Yay! Success! I bought it after I read it too. So happy when others also like my favorites.

I finished and definitely recommend it! It's funny and zany and quirky but at the same time tells a really good story.

I just finished Under Different Stars, LOVED it!

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

Jenny, I'm only a couple chapters in and am hooked!

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I just finished...


This is starting to be such a good series. I'm not really sure now if I like it better than the Percy Jackson series. I think its a class of its own.

I will probably buy some of Marchetta's books once my kids are older. Don't want my 10-year-old randomly picking them up. I really enjoyed Jellico Road, too, though I usually don't like books that make me want to cry.

[Heidi]

I hope you do Becky! She is one of my all time favorites. She actually wrote a really cute middle grade book called The Gorgon in the Gully that one of my GR friends from Australia sent around for some of us to read when it was released years ago.

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

oooo...yes, it was our first around the world. It was really good. I think it was from the other group, right?

[Heidi]

Yup Bluemoon! I think it was the first around the world. It was super cute.

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I agree!

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I finally, finally started this book. I want to finish this and the other two books before Winter comes out in November. Actually scratch that, I want to finish this book and Cress, not really sure if I want to read Fairest. O_O

[David]

I'm reading for fun and re-reading for a little multi-author project I'm about to start :)

I'll guess I'll check into the middle school Marchetta book then. I'll sneak it onto one of my kids Christmas lists.

I'm actually really liking Scarlet more than Cinder! The Cinder character is also growing on me more than she did in her own book.

[Heidi]

It is very interesting to me how many people either liked Cinder or Scarlet better. I think it comes down to the protagaist. It reminds me of the (Katsa) Graceling versus Fire debates. I was not a big fan of Scarlet myself because her personality is a little too abrupt for me but either way I LOVE the next book Cress the most (so far at least).

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I'm only half way into it. Coincidentally enough, I really love Little Riding Hood re-tellings.

On of my favorite cartoon movie is Hoodwinked. ^_^

I think in many cases it was the case of which protag you liked more, but in my case I vote this order for protags 1.Cinder 2.Scarlett 3.Cress but for books, it's the opposite, 1.Cress 2. Scarlett 3.Cinder.

It makes no sense to me, but that's how it worked out haha.

[Heidi]

Your orders are the exact same for me Tommy! I loved Cress the best as a book but Cinder is still my gal!

[Becky]

I still need to read The Lunar Chronicles since the last book is due out soon. I've read most of the first book but wasn't crazy about some of Cinder's decisions.

I'm kinda in a reading rut right now. Maybe when the kids go back to school.

I'm the same too :)

[Brigid ✩]

Sorry I've been so absent the past week or so! I've been on vacation with my family so I haven't had much time to get online. ;) But as for reading progress, I am almost done with:



It's okay. I liked the beginning and then I got kinda bored/annoyed with it after a while. But I'm still going to power through the last 30 pages I have left. :P

Today I read most of:



And I think it was just what I needed right now––something "fluffy" that I could read at the beach. :D A few minor things about it annoy me, but for the most part I think it's very cute and it has likable characters/dialogue.

[Heidi]

Hope you had a great trip Brigid! I bought To All the Boys awhile back and still need to read it.

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I just finished Scarlet and really enjoyed it more than Cinder. I just found the whole (view spoiler)[ I'll be your female alpha thing a bit weird. I did enjoy the whole symbolism of the big bad wolf, and his 'transformation' with the grandma (hide spoiler)]

I'm shocked that I wasn't alone on those orders, let alone that I got two people to agree in just a few posts haha. #GreatMinds

[Tommy]

I gave up on . I wanted to love it, I really did. A superhero novel series for kids that Stan Lee helped put together, sprinkled with really, really good comic style art throughout. almost 200 pages in though and I was just bored the whole time :/

I started and am now a bit over halfway done with it. I am loving it WAY more than anticipated. Pleasant surprise for a book I picked up based strictly on thinking the cover was cool and having an interest in necromancy from video games I've played haha.

[Heidi]

I loved Hold Me Closer Tommy!!!
