[Rebekah Faith]

Hello. :)

[[deleted user]]

omg you guys should have done

The Pen is Mightier than the Sword but this is pretty cool

[[deleted user]]

ik just thought you might have thought of that

[Miss Amelia]

Well the title still references that "pen is mightier than the sword" saying... and the graphic I found matched the name, so I went with it

[[deleted user]]

yeah thats cool

[[deleted user]]

yeah i do too

[★ Jess]

Yeah, The graphic is awesome!

[[deleted user]]

its true

[★ Jess]

youve done well, Amelia.

[Miss Amelia]

thanks--just hope we can all keep it active! Invite loads of people!

[★ Jess]

Should I invite some authors, so we can have a Q and A session?

[Miss Amelia]

They'll probably refuse. Authors don't have a lot of time, but if you want to, you could give it a try

P.Q. Glisson

[Fhal]

That would be cool if we could get an author, it's hard to have an interview with them though...

How are all of you guys?

[★ Jess]

ahahaha Amelia, we should get you to interview Melissa Marr.
Wouldn't that be interesting to watch/read.

Infact, not a bad idea.
Make a mental note, Jessica.

[Aegine]

I haven't read any of her books are they good? Anyway this group seems like fun :D

Lol...that was a TOTAL joke on her part, haha!

[Fhal]

Melissa Marr is the author of Wicked Lovely, right? I haven't read her books yet but I wish to read them soon. I hear that they are great books :)

I want to ask this question:
When you read a story, is there a tendency that you get turned off at some parts that you would want to skip it but can't because you won't be able to understand that story if you skipped?

[★ Jess]

ive read Wicked Lovely.
it was fairly good.
I gave it a 3-which means i enjoyed it. ( 1 means I hated it, 2 means it was very average Four means I loved it and five means I adored it)

But INK EXCHANGE-was shocking. (2 stars)

Amelia hates *hates* WL though.

[Jordan]

Oooh, I hated Wicked Lovely...

[[deleted user]]

haven't read it... should i?
my friends like it... but then, it wouldn'tbe the first time i loathe one of their fave series (*cough* house of night)

[★ Jess]

Ummm...you might like it.
But im not sure?
Love it or hate it.

I liked it because it was a fairly....basic book, though had entertaining elements.

[Jordan]

Ugh, my friends keep trying to get me to read those. Not planning to. I would say...don't read it! But there are others who would disagree.

[★ Jess]

Im glad I read WL, though INKE EXCHANGE was rubbish.


I dont think you would like it, Dayna

[Jordan]

It looked good from the synopsis/cover, but I reeeeally didn't like it. Everything I don't like about YA books.

Here Dayna:
Wicked Lovely

[[deleted user]]

ahaha- probs not...

[Jordan]

Hey, it hasn't reached hate fest status. Yet. :D

What did you like about it, Regan?

[Fhal]

I'd like to read the book though :D
Question: What's the difference of faerie and fairy? Is it like vampire and vampyre?

[Jordan]

Eh, sort of. More of a "This isn't Tinkerbell" sort of distinction, I think. Like the fey. The original fey, I mean.

[Fhal]

"This isn't Tinkerbell" lol xD (I liked Tinkerbell when she didn't talk)

I'm fed up of seeing so many vampire books or werewolf books in bookstores, I mean there are too much already. I didn't read the House of Night Series, but is it even nice? I plan on reading it but I'm hesitant. Same with Shiver, I don't think I really want to read any werewolf book.

Do you guys know about Fairy Tale? It is by Cyn Balog. I actually want to read this xD

[Jordan]

I completely and totally agree. And faeries seem to be the new trend *sigh*. I haven't read House of Night or Shiver. Considering Shiver, though, mostly out of curiosity.

Oh, wow. I just looked at the time. Leaving GoodReads now...I may be back tomorrow. Hopefully. :)

I think that Angels [fallen or not or Nephilim:] and Faeries have a high possibility on being the new trend :D

Bye, take care :D

[★ Jess]

I thought Wicked Lovely was pretty good. I agree with Regan, interesting style.

[[deleted user]]

cool....

honey- angels ARE the new trend...

harry potter- witches and wizards
twilight/vamprie acad.- vampires
mortal instruments (+ hush hush, fallen etc.)- angels

[★ Jess]

Okay- i am SICK. TO. DEATH. of vampires.

Stop. Just stop.
No more vampires. You killed it.
Bram Stoker is always the vampire king in my heart, and Count Dracula will always rule supreme.
no vampire affairs and sparkling guys.

And im also getting rather annoyed with fairys and angles too.

[★ Jess]

I did love vampires.
I adored Twilight.

This is my story:

There I am, thinking how much i love vampires. Scary, dyeing in the sun, stake in the heart, sharp teeth, blood.
"Oh look, a book called TWILIGHT. THis looks diferetn and unique. Im gonna read it"
A FEW DAYS LATER: "Wow this is very good"
Then Edward Cullen took of his shirt (omg-he was super attractive in my imagination.)
And then my mental image is ruined.
He started to sparkle.
The blood sucking vampire sparkles.

Poof.
Love for vampires=gone.

Wicked Lovely and The Iron King have gotten me into the whole faery thing. And I haven't read much ..."


Read Dracula it took me a month to read, but its fantastic!
I did only give it 3 stars, but thats only because of some chapters mid-book that dragged on and on.
Most of it was exceptional.
I should probably boost it up to 4 :S

[★ Jess]

He was in HARRY POTTER 4 as Cedric.

Then they*tried* to make him look attractive. They tried to hot him up.
And they failed.
Miserably.

[Fhal]

I like Rob as Edward but I'm not all crazy for Rob :D
The whole vampires sparkle kinda thing was hilarious and painful at the same time.

I'd like to read Dracula in the future, along with Wicked Lovely and Fairy Tale :D

Dayna: Cool! xD

Fictional Creatures are awesome, but humans rule xD

[★ Jess]

DRACULA is awesome!

But you must have a lot of patience if you want to read it.

[Fhal]

Sure xD

[Fhal]

I saw this book My Name Is Memory and I was wondering why was it so familiar to Fallen. I just read the summary of My Name Is Memory and I immediately thought of Fallen. The guys are both Daniels the girl in My Name Is Memory is Lucy with the girl in Fallen is Luce. Is this coincidental? If Lauren Kate doesn't know this, I think she needs a lawyer.
