I'm looking forward to DREAMLESS. I really liked STARCROSSED.

So far so good... I guess my heart and soul wasn't in it the first time around. (2 full time jobs + Uni full time = no time for ANYTHING)
Yay that's good Nessa :) no one should have to work so hard but well done getting through it all !!

I think you're gonna love it. It's kind of amazing.
Yay!! I know I will! Have to pause midway through to do a beta read for A White So Red but then I'll get back to it :)

I'm reading
. It's pretty interesting. Really liking it so far.
Agreed, loved Graceling and that whole series. Wish she'd write more of them. ;)I'm almost done with BROKEN.
I'm reading Insurgent right now, after a long adventure trying to find it in the UK (the first published batch was misprinted and had to be recollected. Sucks!).
I've also started Howl's Moving Castle (I know it's not Dystopian, but it's really good!) and Ashes, but have decided to put them on hold for the meantime until my two week trip to Spain. :) I have quite a few lined up to read at the beach. Super excited!

I love Howl's Moving Castle! Such a good book. If you get a chance, you should watch the movie from Studio Ghibli. It's freaking awesome!
I just started Crossing by Alexander Fukuda, author of The Hunt
I'm so excited that I just needed to share this. The library has just informed me that I cn go and collect Divergent....I was 18th in line, lol!

You definitely need to read Angel Evolution first as this is a trilogy, but I definitely recommend it. Very unique story line. Here is my review: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Woo hoo!! I haven't finished the rest of the trilogy, but the first book,
was really good. And David is in our group here so if for no other reason, you should read it to support him. My friend just finished the third book and she loved the whole trilogy!

I'm loooooving it! I hope you do too!
About to finish City of Glass, it's spectacular!! Then on to The Death Cure :)
David wrote: "About to finish City of Glass, it's spectacular!! Then on to The Death Cure :)"*cheesy grin* I told you it was AMAZING!!!
Hey, my friend just finished the Angel trilogy and was screaming my ear off about how amazing it was and how she wishes you would write more books in the series!! But don't get a big head or anything ;) Anyhow, I promised her I wouldn't start another new book before I started Demon Evolution. So, I'll probably start it this week.
Lol you have earned my complete trust on book recommendations Bethany, I will always listen to you!!Aww so glad your friend liked it! I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, I think I get better as a writer as it goes on and I can't wait for you to read The Moon Dwellers, I listened to all the constructive feedback from my Angel Evolution readers to improve even more (at least I hope!)
I am reading Inside Out by Maria V. Snyder...pretty good so far!
Started
and this one from the library,
- not a dystopian, but it's a good book so far.
Finished The Death Cure and loved it!! Now doing a beta read for author Christie Rich's new book :)
Just finished
loved it and would recommend it to all ages teen upwards!Still reading
but finding that a harder read really, so need to find another to read along with it I think!
Looks interesting :) I like title and cover :)

The Last Princess does look interesting! I will add it to my to-read list that is a mile long haha.
I finished both
and
last night. I really enjoyed both. The Last Princess was an awesome PA novel. I had low expectations of it for some reason, but it really surprised me. Definitely a must read for this group!Now reading

I had a difficult time with The Maze Runner at first too. But when I got far enough in I figured out why and was totally in awe of his writing. Although starting out a brand new series that way was risky in my opinion. When you read it you feel exactly the same was as Thomas'. Just keep plugging along and you'll get there. I almost stopped so many times. Glad I didn't!
