North of Beautiful is written in prose style, which also makes me hesitate.

I've been wanting to read the Stephanie Plum books, but keep putting them off because the covers throw me...
The covers are pretty plain. I don't see anything bad about them?I was only thrown off because the series is LONG. It's up to book 17 now. But the mods voted it as a buddy read for our women's chat group, so I ended up reading it because of that. I'm glad because it's been fun so far.
The colors are just weird to me. It's not that they are ugly necessarily, just.... strange. And that *is* a long series. But I'm always sad when a series is over, so I guess that might be a good thing.
I was told that the books are sort of separate entities, so you can take a break and not have to read them back to back. If I do end up still liking the book by the time I'm done with it, I'll probably wait to read the second. Maybe do one book a month or something.
Currently reading:
I'm not sure what to make of it. The synopsis sounded great, but now that I'm actually reading it, there are a few things which don't particularly make sense :|
After i had a talk with my sis, Carina, about how I wasn't sure about reading the BDB books, not that I don't intent on reading them, I'm not feelling like reading more PNR so she sugested some boks for me....
also Bloom by Elizabeth Scott..... yeah I guess that's it... lol
Yeah, it's pretty good so far. I got sidetracked with another adult book for part of the night and couldn't stop reading because it's so good.Mirna,
I get overloaded if I try to read too much of one genre. Nothing wrong with taking a break and trying BDB later if you get in the mood. Plus, I'm always excited to see people read Anna. :p
Finished The Reckoning last night. I liked it, but it didn't really feel like the end to a series. I would feel better about it if there was another book after this.Anyways, I'm starting Take Me There
I caved... reading
now :)@Carina, Take Me There looks good... I'll have to look for a copy of that. :)
@Mirna, I'm with Carina and Stacia on Anna and the French Kiss
Reading Die for Me. I just finished Dead Is Not An Option yesterday. I cannot wait until the Dead Is spinoff gets here in 2012!
Yay. :) Just started
. I've been reading a lot of adult stuff, so I wanted to pick up something fun and light.

CatherineWhen you do get to read Before I Fall, have a kleenex box handy. Love that book. But Anna is definetly a great book!
Also, I havent made up my mind about reading PASSION. TORMENT wasnt that great for me, so I'll wait to hear what you guys think about it and make up my mind with that.

If you like that book you're reading, do tell please =)

I already have the other two in hardback form, or I would have ordered it on my kindle. I do LOVE my kindle though. I try to get everyone I know to buy one. lol

I'll let you know how Passion is! And about Before I Fall... Does someone die? Because if they do... I'm not sure I can handle that with my past 7 months...
I will Carina. Didn't have any time to really read today, so maybe tomorrow I'll get to it.Catherine, I think someone does die in it? I haven't read that one yet, but I know Carina has.

I do too which is signed by Lauren Kate herself whom I met in October of last year. I've got the kindle application for my computer for right now.
CatherineBefore I Fall, does deal with death and lose. Its definetly an emotional roller coaster, so if this is a risky subject to you, I suggest skipping it until you're ready =)
Im reading:
so guys I know this isnt the right thread for a rec... but I just cant get these books out of my head, thus the lull in my reading...
... two days past and im still thinking about them...gosh o.O
I finished
(which I thought was just too cute & I loved.. not cute in a cheesy kid way either) & I'm starting
. Wish me luck on the The Road. I tried to read it about a year ago & didn't get past the first chapter. I'm going to push through this time though.
@Isa Moving up Feed on my to-read list!(I think I might have gotten it very cheap or free for my kindle a few days ago, thanks to the ladies at the powder room group)@Catherine Yay for Anna!
@Amy Never heard of Chime before, but I hope it gets better.
Stacia ~ so cold wrote: "Carina you're welcome to buddy read Feed with us. We'll probably get to it in a week or two.Reading
"squee! you guys are reading some of my favorite books :)
I'm giving up on
after a chapter & moving on to
. Maybe one day I'll finally make it through The Road, but I don't see it happening. It was my Book To Movie choice for this months challenge, but I've changed that to If I Stay...
Hi everyone:-)Right now I'm reading the last 100 pages in The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan, it's a very interesting book.
Have a wonderful day.

I kinda felt that she left a little bit hanging in the Reckoning too. Maybe she did just incase she ever wanted to surprise us with another. Have you read the new book in the new series, The Gathering? It is on my to-read list. I haven't heard much buzz about it though.
finished Kiss of snow -nalini singh (it was full of moments hubba hubba for me :D ) and now reading
--> seems very strange book. I dunno :=))
