nope,but i want to.is it really bad?"


It's not that bad. The only thing I didn't like was that just when you thought that it was going to get REALLY good, it slows right back down. But I kept with it and am glad that I did! It's a good book. Just a little slow. You should read it. Have your own opinion. :D

Carina Finished WHITE CAT by Holly Black last night and I liked it quite alot, which for some reason I didnt think I would.

I'll be starting GRACELING by Kristin Cashore today.

Catherine (cattymccat) | 754 comments @Nikki: Does the Uglies series get better as it goes on, or...? And I hope you like Hunger Games as much as I did!

@Carina: I'm 20% done with Graceling & I'm loving it. My husband on the other hand is kind of bored with it. (We're listening to it on CD in the car.)

I liked the first two. The third one was a little "eh" for me. I had to take a break between the third and fourth though, bc the writing style was giving me a headache, and also there was a big character/scenery change. After the break, I came back to Extras, and I actually enjoyed it. I think if I would have read them all in succession, I would have hated it.

Good to know. Then I'll take the break I was planning. :)

*Mrs. Brightside* Darn. I should've probably taken a break after Specials before reading Extras...because I didn't like Extras.


message 1159: by Nikki (new)

Nikki (nikkitysplitt) The writing style at that point for me was just so "headache-making" I couldn't do it again right away. It really goes to show that if you aren't in the right mood, you can't like some books.


message 1160: by Carina (new)

Carina @Catherine So far I've only heard great things about Graceling Im really excited XD

Rebecca (bexsi) I have finished A Lick of Frost (Meredith Gentry, #6) by Laurell K. Hamilton A Lick of Frost it was much better than the last 2 books but I am going to wait a few weeks before I start the next one. I have just started Magic Study (Study, #2) by Maria V. Snyder Magic Study I loved the first book and hope this is just as good.

ooooo i just got Leviathan!!! it looks good!!!


message 1184: by Nikki (new)

Nikki (nikkitysplitt) Honestly, I dont really know what any of them are about. I just pick up what strikes me, and then I dont bother reading the backs of the books.


message 1185: by Catherine (new)

Catherine (cattymccat) | 754 comments Leviathan is really really good. If it starts out slow, just give it a chance. I'm going to start The Angel Experiment soon I hope... I hope it's good.


message 1186: by Stacia (the 2010 club) (last edited Nov 06, 2010 10:37PM) (new)

Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) I have Leviathan coming up for another group's December read, so I can't wait to get to it.

I just read Ice by Sarah Beth Durst and Prey by Lurlene McDaniel . Both were decent. The student-teacher one threw me a bit because of how real it was.

Next up are Nightshade (Nightshade, #1) by Andrea Cremer and Born of Night (The League, #1) by Sherrilyn Kenyon .


message 1187: by *Mrs. Brightside* (new)

*Mrs. Brightside* Ugghh... Sorry guys, but I'm putting Beautiful Creatures on hold /: it's taking me a loooooong time to read, so I'm gonna try reading more than one book at a time! If that doesn't work, then I'm just gonna focus on other books.


Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) BC is sort of slow and isn't for everyone. I liked it but didn't LOVE it the way so many others did. Don't feel bad. We can't all be into the same books every single time.


message 1189: by Carina (new)

Carina Yup Stacia is right Ms B =)


message 1190: by Kara (new)

Kara (kara_writes) | 129 comments Yeah, BC wasn;t really my book either 0_o
I just started Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side by Beth Fantaskey

*Mrs. Brightside* Lol, okay!

Catherine (cattymccat) | 754 comments I just finished Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink. It's completely different from anything else I've ever read. I think Michelle Zink must be a genius. Great book.

Prophecy of the Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters, #1) by Michelle Zink

I'm going to finally finish Burned. I got to page 59 & realized I had WAY too many books started, so set it down until I finished a couple of the others. I can't wait to finish Burned so that I'll be caught up.

Burned (House of Night, #7) by P.C. Cast

@Mrs. Brightside... take your time with BC... Its quite slow at first, but I thought the ending was well worth the effort.. :)

Camilla (camillaisloved) | 914 comments Does Fragile Eternity by Melissa Marr pick up the pace anytime soon? I am on chapter 10-page 120-and I just feel like it's dragging on and that it's taking a lot to try and read. I feel like I am going SO slow! I hope it gets going...
