I really need to read Bruiser! I love me some Neal Shusterman! *Sigh* LOVE Perfect Chemistry! It's amazing!

[Bethany]

Yeah, I didn't realize he was the unwind & everlost author. I haven't read either of those but after having read Bruiser I will definitely check out the others.

[[deleted user]]

You should definitely read Unwind, like ASAP!

[Amanda]

I loved Perfect Chemistry (haven't read the 2nd & 3rd books yet though). I just finished her other series . That series was a great read (and was also a great step away from Paranormal/Dystopian/Apocalyptic type books.

[[deleted user]]

I love that series too! I don't read very much contemporary (I actually think her books are the only contemporary I've read), but they are sooo good! I can't get enough, and I seriously cannot wait until the third book in the Perfect Chemistry series comes out!

[Laura]

So I read the first Strange Angels novel a while ago and even though I liked it, it didn't WOW! me. Who else has read these books and how did you like them?

[[deleted user]]

I've read them! I like them, but like you, they aren't like, The Hunger Games or Mortal Instruments. I'm waiting for the fourth one right now, Defiance!

[lézengő reader]

Just got my copy of The Dead-Tossed Waves, I'm so excited, but first have to finish a few other books I have from the library.

[Julie]

Still reading Deeper and Infernal Devices. I'm almost done with Infernal Devices, which means that I'm almost done with The Hungry City Chronicles since there's just one more book.

[Bethany]

I finished perfect chemistry yesterday...I loved it. I really enjoy the contemporary stuff. So long as it's realistic. I've read some pretty good ones, but lots of times they are sad...like , , . All of these were really good, but very sad..so I suppose it just depends on whether or not you mind a sob story.

I also just started Impossible...on pg 115 and I really like it, especially because i'm still totally guessing at what the heck is going on...

[Laura]

Oh, I must admit - I love a good sob story!

I liked that book but I thought there were way too many words wasted on describing their meals and with everything going crazy, more could've happened to them.

[Lauren]

I just finished Stolen by Lucy Christopher and Kindred by Tammar Stein. Neither of them were distopian or apocalyptic, but they were YA novels. I gave Kindred only 2 stars, but Stolen.. wow. I gave it 5 stars!! Now I'm starting on The Silent Boy by Lois Lowry and The Knife of Never Letting Go.

[[deleted user]]

I've heard really good things about Stolen, and I've been meaning to give it a try! I might just have to now!

[Julie]

I just got Stolen from the library, I'm excited about it!

[Laura]

Stolen was fantastic.

[Bethany]

Well, I'm am thrilled to say that I am reading.....wait for it.....



YYYAAAAAYYYYY! Yes, the wait is finally over and I am so glad because I've been going through some major Jace and Clary withdrawals, but I'm better now. I'm getting my fix and life is GOOD!

I'm reading it too! I downloaded it yesterday and can't put it down. There are some super-steamy make-out scenes too.

One of my favorites!! I hope you enjoy it. It's an awesome book!

Also one of my favs! Enjoy! :)

Just finished . I couldn't put it down once I started it.

I read Dark Life and really enjoyed it.

[Angie]

Amanda wrote: "Amy, I completely agree. I finished it last night. I'm reading books at a crazy speed right now. Mary was just hard to relate too. I thought I would understand her and then she would change course...."

It's funny that you say Mary was hard to relate to (which I agree), but I actually found Gabry from Dead Tossed Waves even harder to relate too. I love both of these books because of the world (who doesn't love zombies??), but the two MCs are really annoying at times.

[Jen]

Just finished and - both were really excellent.

is next up

[Angie]

I just finished . I thought it was great. Really interesting story.

[Bethany]

Angie wrote: "I just finished . I thought it was great. Really interesting story."

Ooo...that sounds good! I'll have to check it out.

Laura & Angie...Dark Life is one of my favorite books. I love the whole concept of the underwater world. It's a great book! I'm glad you guys liked it :)

[Bethany]

Amanda wrote: "Just finished . I couldn't put it down once I started it."

I know what you mean!!! I'm visiting my dad so I'm having to pace myself so that I'm not being totally rude and ignoring him...lol. If I were at home, I would have finished it the first day. It is super good so far. And honestly, it's the mortal instruments....what's not to like???

[[deleted user]]

Bethany...hehe I finished the day after. Stayed home from school and everything! It's amazing!

Angie, I have that one in hardcover on my shelf. I haven't read it yet, but it sounds really good! I've been meaning to get to it for forever!

Oh, and I want to read Dark Life soooo badly! They just don't have it available for the Nook yet, which is what I'm waiting for!

[Angie]

Bethany wrote: "Angie wrote: "I just finished . I thought it was great. Really interesting story."

Laura & Angie...Dark Life is on..."

I can't wait for the sequel to Dark Life...Rip Tide. Should be excellent.

[Bethany]

What?!?!?!?! You just made my year Angie! I didn't know she was doing a sequel....I always hoped but, I didn't dare to dream. I am so excited. Okay, I have to go....got a book to look up!!! YAY!

Pays to be a children's librarian...you known when all the good stuff is coming out and you get to buy it and read it first! :)

I thought Gabry could be really annoying, I just related to her better than Mary. I really couldn't stand Mary (at all). I am thinking the writer struggles with the MC because neither character really pulled it off very well. I haven't read the 3rd one yet, getting to it on my list, but I'm hoping the MC is easier to relate to or at least, not quite as selfish and crazy.

its a bit hard to get into. Anyone else read It?"

I've read it. It is really hard to get into, but once you do you won't be able to stop. (:

[[deleted user]]

Oh wow, that was a while ago! You're right! I liked it! But I haven't read any of the others in the series. Have you read them? Are they worth it?

[Laura]

I enjoyed Dark Life, but I think I was hoping for something a little grittier. I'll certainly read the sequel though.

[Jen]

Ok - everyone needs to read
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time! I keep reading slower and slower cause I don't want it to end!

You should always read the books I recommend to you. I don't steer you wrong! :)
Definitely one of my favorite books this year. I loved Finnikin.

[[deleted user]]

I'm going to agree with that rec! That book is absolutely amazing!

I agree - you haven't steered me wrong yet! ;) That's what big sisters are for right? :)

[Julie]

I just checked out No Child's Game: Reality TV 2083 and The Unidentified from the library. I'm excited about both, but I think that I will read No Child's Game first.

I haven't read anything by Shusterman that I haven't liked yet - I'd say read em all! :)

That series is great! I love the Georgina Kincaid novels - and there's an end in site which is good and bad I guess! :)

Laura - that book is one of the most amazing I have ever read!

Amy - The second in the blackout series was just as good as the first - you should check them out!

Lauren, the Knife of Never Letting Go is great! You'll love it! Be sure to pick up the other two in the trilogy.

Yes, I think most of us who've read it are MAJOR Finnikin fans! That is my favorite book of all time...the one I would take to the deserted island. I totally know what you mean about reading it slowly, but it doesn't even matter. One time I finished that book and the went right back to the beginning and started all over again. It's my happy book. And I could pee my pants at the fact that it is possibly going to become a trilogy.

Bethany ~ That's great news (about the trilogy) - I would love to read more about Finnikin!

[Jen]

Has anyone read ? I picked it up from the library last night.

[Andrew]

The wife just had to read it first :), but now I'm about half way through . She said it was really good and I'm enjoying it as well so far.
