What are you reading now?
Second the yay Patch. He's the best part of the book. Hunger Games is also pretty awesome because the story is so good.
I never expected to like the Hunger Games because it wasn't my type of book. But They're so good.
I love Dystopian books if they're done well. Matched was an example of one that didn't live up to the hype.Unwind is a good one. I have high hopes for Wither too since it's dystopian plus polygamy which are two subjects I like reading about.
Yeah Matched was..I think I'm dropping my rating on that one to a 2.I need to look up some dystopian books

No but I can't wait till you find out. Although I've dropped so many hints.

It would be abit like refreshing my pallette with a sorbet so I can really get the taste of the next course, so to speak. I think I'll give The Iron King a break for a few days and come back after I gets me some good ol vampire PNR LOL!
Hey Brit, Hopefully after a short break from the Fae world I'll come back with renewed vigor and an unbiased mind :-)
@Alison I agree! I'm only just getting over Shadowfever and I've done it by reading different genres.

I'll find out soon enough. Just one thing Britnee...does everything get explained and become clear in City of Glass? I really do want to know that...

From what I remember it does. There is one thing that ties into CA.
That's what I thought lol. I figured that because Clare intended to only make it a trilogy she was would wrap this up in CoG. But has now, clearly, extended it to another 3 books. WHICH I am totally extatic about btw! Anyway, its bed time for me here! Nighty night
Yeah shes tying it into her other series too apparently.Night.
hahahaha I still hope that if I read the other books it won't be true too xDDDD but if it is true, i don't think I'll want to read them because it'd be too much for my little heart to handle xDand britnee, not all the warnings in the world could've prepared me for that D:

I already knew what happens before I read them so..xD I wasn't shocked.

So I'm about 80 pages into Unearthly and it's making me nervous.Reddish haired girl moves away from northern California because she gets an assignment to protect someone in another state. She has visions guiding her...
Sounds exactly like the start of the book I wrote (except it's a guy going to protect a girl)...I really hope things change somewhat or I'm going to be scared to try to get my book published.
Hmmm..:/ well the book is very different from others..Are you enjoying it though?
I need it to be different from mine though!So far it's fine but it's making me nervous. The locations, the setup, the characters appearance - everything so far is so flipping similar. My character isn't an angel though...it's more of a special power thing.
Hmmm..well I guess you'd just have to read the whole thing to see how similar it is :/
@Stacia, im with britnee... and I'm also curious about your story :)I'm almost done with
I also found
in a bookstore... super happy to get another neal shusterman book :)
I've never heard of that one by him. I bet it's good though.
REHV! Love him. Dark Mohawk and Amethyst eyes!!!(he really needed more story time though)

I'm really interested in knowing his history. And now that he's the leahdyre, things should be really interesting.

ditto!
Have you guys read John Matthew's story?
I have. It was good. Xhex got softer toward the end, which was nice.I want Blay and Qhuinn's story like yesterday.
Are Blay and Qhuinn going to have a book about them?
The last I heard it would not be a whole book. Ward is either going to do a side novella or draw the story out through the rest of the books.I actually was talking about this the other night. I'm sort of bummed that they aren't getting a full book.
Lmao you marked that as a spoiler!!!
it's kind of embarrasing to publicly post it :)
I actually do like Saxton, just not for Blay.
Okay, I just found this one. GRRRR...it's locked from letting me download it and it's from one of the regular places that I get my books from. I need to read this!In the depths of night, customs officers board a galley in a harbor and overpower its guards. In the hold they find oil and silver, and a naked boy chained to the bulkhead. Stunningly beautiful but half-starved, the boy has no name. The officers break the boy's chains to rescue him, but he escapes.
Venice is at the height of its power. In theory Duke Marco commands. But Marco is a simpleton so his aunt and uncle rule in his stead. They command the seas, tax the colonies, and, like those in power before them, fear assassins better than their own.
In a side chapel, Marco's fifteen-year old cousin prays for deliverance from her forced marriage. It is her bad fortune to be there when Mamluk pirates break in to steal a chalice, but it is the Mamluks' good luck - they kidnap her.
In the gardens beside the chapel, Atilo, the Duke's chief assassin, prepares to kill his latest victim. Having cut the man's throat, he turns back, having heard a noise, and finds a boy crouched over the dying man, drinking blood from the wound. The speed with which the boy dodges a dagger and scales a wall stuns Atilo. And the assassin knows he has to find the boy.
Not to kill him, but because he's finally found what he thought he would never find. Someone fit to be his apprentice.
I'm reading like four or five books right now, but just bought
and seriously couldn't wait to start it. So far so good!!

Check your inbox, Miss Britnee! =]
I like the U.S. cover better, but I think most people prefer the darker one.
@Meghan THANKS!! I have it on res at the library but they take forever.

I agree the UK cover looks budget. Thats the one we have here D:
