And I really enjoyed Divergent!




Tori - That looks like an interesting book. Is it as depressing as his book
? I don't think I can do depressing books anymore.
Brigid - I'm reading Scorpio Races right now and have to say that I love Maggie Stiefvater. The book is good so far with a lot of "world" building.

Now I'm reading The Fellowship of the Ring.

Ha ha! Have to agree with you now after finishing the book. ;-) Just the whole thing about working in libraries and reading and getting knowledge sounds cool, but in that world I'd be better off with Amity.
Just finished Divergent, now reading

It's really not that depressing. Nothing like his other book.




I also am reading

You should! I mean, I thought the first book was good but the second and third books were much better in my opinion. The third book in particular was really amazing. <3

Happy New Year to you as well :)

Finally gotten around to reading this. Was so hesitant to read the beginning, so got through that hurdle and finally started it."
Thumbs up! I find myself wanting to re-read this series already. (If only there weren't so many books to get to!) :)

Yay! Hope you enjoy it!! That series gets so much better with the second and third book! I really miss that world. I just might have to do a re-read if I get through the other books I'm reading!


Oh Em Gee, YES!! So heartbreaking, but so so GOOD.


Wasn't that just a GREAT book?! Really powerful. With Chaos Walking and now this...he has a constant reader in me, no matter what he decides to write. I can't wait for his next book!


Yes Lloyd! I completely agree!! I can't get over just how powerful it was. But then I felt the same way when I finished

I need to re-read them, too. I thought about doing so over break, but I left them in my dorm room. >_<
Also I seriously need to read A Monster Calls.

Scorpio Races is intense. Maggie Stiefvater's writing is so beautiful.
I really need to read A Monster Calls too. Can't bring myself to spend $9 on a 200 page book though. I keep waiting for the price to come down.
Kourtni - Hope you like Obisidian! Quick, easy, addictive. :)

I read the digital version, so I didn't even (yet) get to see the illustrations. I can guess that it would be a $9 well spent!
Kourtni - I want to re-read the trilogy already too! I still remember almost breaking out in tears on the bus ride home that night I was reading the Knife of Never Letting Go. :(

Shannen - I'm liking Obsidian so far! I needed something quick and light after A Monster Calls. And yes you should read it!!
Lloyd - I read it on my Kindle Fire so I got to see the illustrations. They were pretty awesome! You need to see them! Oh, I came to tears many times through the Chaos Walking books and I can't even tell you how much I boo-hooed reading A Monster Calls. I thought I was going to wake up my husband sleeping next me! LoL
I listened to a Monster Calls - I bought it for $9 from Books on Board and it was money well spent. Jason Issacs did a wonderful job narrating. I am crying just thinking of it *bwaaaaaa*
Jason Issacs, as in Lucius Malfoy?


I really enjoyed it too!


Anyhoo..next up is Clockwork Prince.

late last night. You're right Shannen, its like crack. I could not put it down! I was pretty upset when I found out the next book is not out yet. :(
Anyh..."
Happy you liked it! If it's any consolation, you could read
next but then you'll still have to wait for the third book in that series. But at least their are two books out in that series! Another book that I couldn't put down was
but the sequel isn't out yet.

Anyh..."
Happy you liked it! If it's any consolation, you could read

I've missed you too! ;) I love reading the more serious and wonderful books like Jellicoe Road but oh how I love me some book crack and having someone who likes both to talk about it with.

Bluemoon - What book are you reading?
Kourtni - Yay! I'm waiting for the third book while stalking the author's page on here. She actually responds to people when you write to her.

And








Kourtni - I haven't kept up on the Sookie books and I haven't read the fourth MI book. Shame on me!

Seth: Dauntless is cool but definitely not for me. XD I could see myself in either Erudite (because I love reading and learning new things) or Amity (because I'm too nice). XD
Kourtni: Welcome back! I hope you find some good things to read. :-) (off topic, I know!) But what is your major? Good luck with the rest of school!
Still reading Divergent but I really like it <3
