I tried that..."
I really enjoyed it Heidi! I gave it 4 stars. You should give it another try.

Great! I actually picked it up from the library yesterday just in case.

Ugh, I didn't like either of them either. I felt the same way until the end ... and then I hated Elder more. But, I WILL SPOIL NOTHING. *covers mouth*

I am reading



I am whole heartedly reading Wuthering Heights now. It has evoked some serious emotions that I didn't know I could feel. What a book! It just might make my WoW shelf.



Both are great.
I really liked it Kourtni but it took a little while to get into it. Brittany and Peep just finished it and I think both liked it a lot too. I recommend it - especially if you like fairy tales and/or fantasy books.

I just noted in our other group that you and Brittany were AWOL for awhile there (she was in Italy). Glad you are back!
Bluemoon it is way more adult than Alanna and besides the fact that they are both fantasy books with female leads they are totally different.

Thanks! Yes, I had to bunker down for finals. But I am back for a solid 3 months!
Wow, sounds like I need to read the Ruby books!
Oh I think you would love Ruby too Kournti! I am so glad my Ruby love is spreading :)
Bluemoon just renew the book online - that is what I always do.

Well, it's a zombie book. And zombies really creep me out. Typically I don't like zombie/horror books at all, really, because they're just gross ... And this book is gross too. However, it's well-written which is more than can be said for most horror stories ... very interesting style.
I shouldn't try to describe books when I'm high on caffeine. The point is, YES. I recommend it. Thus far, anyway. I'm like 50-ish pages into it. :)

Yeah, the descriptions of those things tend to be super nasty. *shudders* And since this book is well-written as I said, the descriptions are particularly ... vivid. However, I really like the main character, and it's a good story.
I guess the only zombie books I've really read, besides this one, were the first two Forest of Hands and Teeth books ... which weren't very well-written and the characters were annoying. Haha.
But yes, if you're going to try at least one zombie book The Reapers are the Angels is worth it. :)

Yeah, you should check it out! I thought it was really good! Really disturbing ... but good. :)

Yeah, from what I've heard everyone loves it :) It's great so far ... I really like Anna, she's very funny and easy to relate to. :D
I started
last night. Hope it gets better.
Hard to read any book after reading
. I just want to keep reading it over and over and over and...

Hard to read any book after reading



I miss Jacky...


Loving the series!
I did not like Forest of the Hands and Teeth and will not be reading any more of that little series, no sir!
I am excited to read

Shannen When You Reach Me is pretty middle grade. Sometimes i find it is harder for me as an adult to get into middle grade books, but then again I am not the target audience.
Nikki and Kourtni I love Jacky!

I can't wait to read that one, Kourtni!
My library actually has it! Woohoo! I will place a hold on it once I finish The Host.
