Today I got:
( I have zero interest in the tv show and movie but I think I might like this book version, thoughts??)
(OMG!!!) and a handful of baby-sitters club ones that i'm missing from my collection :)
Nice. I wish my librarian gave me ACR's. I don't even think my library gets them. I have to wait at least two weeks for books to show up in the catalog after their release normally.

. I'm happy to see that.I haven't even read it yet but I saw it at B&N. Read a couple of the first pages and bought it. But I didn't start it because I got the feeling it would be one of those " this is so much fun, I need that sequel right now" type of books. So now that I have
I'm gonna start

They're really cute reads. The characters are funny and endearing, but it's not a really deep book. On Friday I'll get myself Queen of the Dead so I can get more Alona and Will.I hope you like it!
I love Candace Bushnell,
was my least favorite of hers, in fact I didn't really like it at all.
was fun - 80's rock!

today, it's my most-anticipated book this year and I'm so excited!"Let me know how it is. From the early reviews it looks like a tear jerker.
I will, Heidi! I think I'm gonna re-read the first ones again because I hardly remember the 3rd and 4thFor my Nook Color I downloaded
(huge sucker for animal books)
I went to the library today and picked up Crescendo Dancing in My Nuddy-Pants: Even Further Confessions of Georgia Nicolson Away Laughing on a Fast Camel: Even More Confessions of Georgia Nicolson Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers: More Mad, Marvy Confessions of Georgia Nicolson Love is a Many Trousered Thing Startled by His Furry Shorts Stop in the Name of Pants! and Are These My Basoomas I See Before Me?. I figured since all the Georgia Nicolson books I haven't read yet were in, I would go ahead and pick them up. They are quick, fun reads so I should have them finished in no time!
This is a fun thread! I love seeing what everyone just got. Here are the YA books I have recently acquired:
Tyger Tyger was a Goodreads first reads win.

All are e-books for my Nook except for Tyger Tyger!

I never saw the movie but I think I knew that there was one... It sounds vaguely familiar so I probably knew about it. Maybe I will watch it.
