Camilla (camillaisloved) | 914 comments Just finished Glimmerglass (Faeriewalker, #1) by Jenna Black ... good book. Then after I read it, I remembered there are others that aren't even out yet!!! Stupid of me to start yet ANOTHER series with books that are not out yet. Ho-hum!

Didn't finish Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Seth Grahame-Smith or A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly . Just don't feel like reading about death so soon.

Now reading My Horizontal Life A Collection of One-Night Stands by Chelsea Handler . ...

The first book is definitely the weakest in the series (IMO!) BUT the series does get progressively better after each book...

I was a Jace fan too. We're a rare breed. Most everyone else loves Marc.

Akanksha  Singh (akankshasingh92) | 95 comments @Meghann yeah the the book actually crawls. It might get better but i wouldn't know that of course. If you do finish it do let me know your opinion.
@Joanna Thanks :) I might start reading them soon.


message 2074: by Carina (new)

Carina Paranormalcy is one of the books I was going to buy(still might), and I had heard great things about it. But do let us know if it gets better Meghann.


message 2075: by Carina (new)

Carina I still havent read LAST SACRIFICE, so I've been staying away from all the VA discussions to stay away from spoilers and I feel really left out. Dont know how much longer I can hold!!!

I love Glimmerglass, I've got another 6 series I'm waiting on the next books to be released on :). I totally get what you're saying.
Really enjoyed Glimmerglass too, I think it will be an excellent series.

and so far its pissing me off.. this is a good thing. I am applaled by how women were treated in victorian times. That a smart woman = insanity. I think this is a wonderfully written and honest book. If you haven't pick it up

message 2091: by Carina (new)

Carina @Akanksha I already have the hardcover of LAST SACRIFICE but had to put of reading it cause HUNGER GAMES is due back today and needed to read that first.






Finished reading HUNGER GAMES late last night.(Very late! I couldnt stop reading!)
You guys were absolutely right its an amazing book and I loved every minute of it. Specially Peeta!
I should have listened to you Isa, I should of had CATCHINGFIRE ready to start right away but I put it on hold and am anxious to read it!

Akanksha  Singh (akankshasingh92) | 95 comments @Carina Can't say what you did was wrong, Hunger Games is an amazing series. But im partial to VA....

message 2094: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (bexsi) I have finished The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova The Historian There are some brilliant moments, the entombment of Rossi and Dracula is eerie, but the ending is abrupt and too clean Though the book has a tendency to ramble, Elizabeth Kostova melds history and myth in rare style. 3 Stars
The Awakening (Darkest Powers, #2) by Kelley Armstrong The Awakening The Awakening is a fairly quick read, This book carries on Chloes journey of discovering her self and her new friends. This is a great story and I am looking foward to the next book. 4.5 stars
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman The Graveyard Book The Graveyard Book is unusual and strange, and I absolutely loved it. Once I started reading it, I couldn't stop. great read for children and adults alike. 4 stars
I have started Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill Heart-Shaped Box

message 2097: by Carina (new)

Carina Ok here is a random question:
Was I the only one that liked Eragon(the movie)? Why didnt they keep making the sequels?? (Sorry I know its off topic but I saw the movie again recently and was wondering why they didnt keep going)


message 2098: by Michele (new)

Michele Finally tomorrow I get City of Ashes
I read the excerpts off Barnes & Noble, that just made me more impatient to get it : )


message 2099: by Carina (new)

Carina Thats what I figured, and its a bummer cause I thought it was pretty good. But then again, I also didnt read the books so nothing to compare it to.




Ok so what if City of Bones doesnt do to good and they decide to not make the sequels? What if I love the movie and am stuck with just the beggining?? Waiting for a sequel that will never come..........
This is one of the things that worries me when they decide to turn a really good book into a movie!!
(I think I might be over reacting a little but I have a cold that is impairing my judgement. Sorry lol!!)


message 2100: by Joanna (new)

Joanna (joannaoj) | 394 comments i am so excited! The cover of City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare will be revealed tomorrow morning! :)
