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

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.
@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 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. :)
Darn. I should've probably taken a break after Specials before reading Extras...because I didn't like Extras.
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.

I know right?! I think he should've stopped writing after Specials /: I almost gave up on Extras too.
Yeah, I was blown away. My friend has the second one for me to borrow, but doesn't have the third yet. Altho she is probably buying it this weekend so I can get off that list :/
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.
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.
I have Leviathan coming up for another group's December read, so I can't wait to get to it.I just read
and
. Both were decent. The student-teacher one threw me a bit because of how real it was.Next up are
and
.
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.
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.
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.
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.

@Mrs. Brightside... take your time with BC... Its quite slow at first, but I thought the ending was well worth the effort.. :)
Oh, I just finished
and am now on
@Isa How was Poison Study?? @Dora Im in the middle of Graceling and I've loved it from the begging, hope u do too.
Does
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...
