Isa you have to read my review on Memory after you're done. I'm curious to see if we're on the same page at all. Up until the end, it would have been 5 stars for me, but one tiny detail effed the whole thing up.

Connecting factor:Both are about Faeries.And both are pretty awesome.

I'm half way through the book... you got me really curious about the end! :)

@Stacia, I totally agree with you... what kind of an ending was that..?! (view spoiler)

I need to go back and edit my review to put in spoiler tags because I realized that I bitched in my review about that ending.

It's not completely the same but there are some similarities.

*I don't know if 1984 was written for teens or adults, but I read it as a child and loved it.
Connecting factor- more than anything the big brother aspect.



Connecting factor : Dystopians with more of a focus on personal preferences in life and love.


Iron Thorn was a mix for me... really good at first, then boring then really good again. :) (and yup... I got it from there too! :)

Gabriel reminded me of Peeta for some reason. Instead of being the boy with the bread, he was the boy with the breakfast tray.

haha! For the life of me ,I cannot remember the guy's name in Matched (Ky? Guy? huh...) Gabriel reminded me of that guy!

Gabriel was kind of cute, but not "wow," but at least he wasn't a child molester like Linden (even though I know Linden was never raised to believe what he was doing was wrong, so I sort of forgive him, but he still gives me the creeps).

The husband in Wither just pissed me off! Once it went there, I was seeing red. I mean I get the need for shock.. but it was just too much for me! (Apparently I have my limits!)

I guess I probably should have spoiler tagged what I wrote about Wither, but you find out right away that a 20 year old married a 13 year old, and it's a given that married couples are probably going to hook up. It is a book about forced polygamy, after all.




Connecting factor: Male protags who get their asses handed to them time and time again. All three books are also edgier. (I LOVED HOLD ME CLOSER!!)

I had planned on reading Hold me Closer anyway, but now that you're even remotely comparing it to White Cat/Red Glove I'm absolutely reading it.

Oh gosh! read it, read it.. :) I really really liked it..:)



I hesistate to categorize the latter as dystopian as the former is because it's a little light on the world building; the similarites have to do with charries: kick ass, strong and driven to survive. I really enjoyed Divergent :)







Connecting factors: Fae, other worlds, & girls who don't truly know what they are.



Connecting factor: Both are all about fighting an ancient evil with a group of connected people. (Twin Tied is a YA)

This next one I would consider an adult read, but nothing graphic. If you like more mature YA you might like them.

And I know One for the Money isn't paranormal, but Fist Grave on the Right is.



Connection factor: both books have this funny writing style. It's very easy to read and the humor feels very real; not forced. Both characters have magical abilities and they are sarcastic + smart. And there is enough action to make them interesting :)
