Yay! More Patrick Ness takers! I am sooooo excited for everyone to read A Monster Calls! Since my mother suffered from breast cancer nearly half my life reading that books was seriously a catharsis for me. I know that sounds silly. But I was seriously moved.

Thanks for the tip, I'm so buying it right now!

And I finished A Monster Calls, amazing and sad and refreshing and just Patrick Ness!

Let me know how that goes, Brigid :-) I borrowed it, too! I liked the first book but didn't love it.

Aww why would that be silly? It's a gorgeous and very honest book, and I see how it could be really cathartic.

Oh, same here, Becky! I was constantly looking back to check dates!

[Karen’s Library]

Dang, Nook isn't offering Finnikin of the Rock for $1.99. :-(

[David]

Aww sorry Karen, that's annoying! Hope they do soon then we can read together :)

Heidi, I'm so excited too, you are definitely at the top of my recommended list along with Karen, you guys never steer me wrong!

Thanks for the heads up on the book sale - I'm heading over right now (damn that "Buy with one click" button)

[Heidi]

I bought it too Vered. Too tempting! Kourtni has the second book (which I am totally wanting her to keep until she reads it) but I thought in the long distant future I may re-read the entire series so I will not have books one and two ready to go! I am also hoping it is a Kindle book I can share. Yay! Thanks Lloyd!

Boo! Do you have a smart phone, tablet, or ipod touch where you could read it on the Kindle app? I would be more than happy to lend it out.

It really was Brigid. I remember feeling the exact same ways the protag in the book felt (minus the talking tree :)

[Kourtni]

Wow this group seems super active lately! Its awesome!

I finished

bought but I'm taking a break to re-read the Fever series. I'd forgotten how much I love this series. I got through in a day and I'm almost through . Oh how I missed Jericho Barrons. :) *sigh* :)

Yay Kourtni is here! Love the Fever series thanks to Shannen (who pimped that series much to our benefit :)

On the advice of many people in this group, I am FINALLY reading . Much better than I expected! But then, I should have known that! I've never been steered wrong in this group before! ;-)

[David]

Lol yay!!!! I swear you'll love it :)

[Lloyd]

I need to get to that one one of these days as well. I bought it back when I first bought my Kindle and got a little side-tracked. For the moment, I'm enjoying my current read.

Say what?! Lloyd you never read The Book Thief? I am suprised and quite frankly saddened to hear this info(just kidding). But seriously I am super exicted to have a new book to pimp! EVERYONE GO READ IT! Maybe we should make it a buddy read or a monthly book because I also know someone named SHANNEN has not read it. Hmmmmm....

[Kourtni]

Shannen hasn't read TBT??? Tsk tsk Shannen...

[Heidi]

Kourtni wrote: "Shannen hasn't read TBT??? Tsk tsk Shannen..."

I know! I have pimped it too her many times and so far my pimping skills have failed miserably. Must be losing my touch. She must meet Rudy (aka Jesse Owens)

[Heidi]

p.s. I own the Book Thief and would be more than happy to mail it to my fellow group members *cough* Shannen *cough*

[Brigid ✩]

I need to re-read that book ... it's been like five or six years since I last read it.

saumensch - hahaha :)

[Kourtni]

Ha! I still call my husband that...lol

[Becky]

I have not read The Book Thief either. It's somewhere on my TBR list. If it did happen to be a monthly read, I will probably get to it a bit faster. The Knife of Never Letting Go is next, though, since I can't renew the library loan on it.

Good to know Becky! More people need to randomly say German swear words like Kourtni and me :)

I actually haven't read that one either.

[Heidi]

OMG! Wendy! For Shame!

Ok that is it. I am hereby making an exectutive decision that the Book Thief shall be herefore named our March 2013 Group Book (unless of course Brigid and Bluemoon hate the idea and I will cower by myself in the corner but wait NO ONE Puts Heidi in the corner -- wow I had too much sugar this morning!)

Ummm I have to disagree with you about being caught up David but you are close -- you must read at least one Melina Marchetta book before I can ease up on my bombardment of recs to you! Melina is a Goddess.

[David]

Lol! I have it on my Kindle!! Three books away on my list ;)

[Kourtni]

LOL!! Oh jeeze Heidi you are cracking me up today!
