Welcome Heaven :D! Zombies! I Love those books, let me recommend This Is Not a Test by Courtney Summers it hasn't come out yet, but I go the chance to read the arc and it was Fan-tas-tic. Also the Forest of Hands and Teeth series The Forest of Hands and Teeth (The Forest of Hands and Teeth, #1) by Carrie Ryan and Dearly, Departed (Gone With the Respiration, #1) by Lia Habel

So far those are the only Zombie books I've read, I really need to read more of them :3

message 1723: by Jade (last edited Jun 25, 2012 10:21PM) (new)

Jade (noxidanamchara) So I'm Wren. I've been in and out of YABC for a while now but haven't actually been "active" because I'm not on GR enough for me to be. I think it's safe for me to say that I love reading just as much as the next person here. Haha

My favorite Genre? YA Dystopians. They have to be just right though, otherwise they can be a pain in the arse.

My favorite book? Hawk of May by Gillian Bradshaw by Gillian Bradshaw. I love Gwalchmai.

I have a fond respect for any and all of Tamora Pierce's books as well. Though they may be for a younger audience I love them.

And I love to write when my muses allow me to. They're fickle and unreliable though, haha.

I judge books by covers and that one reviewer who had the gall to give the book a 1 star when everyone else was gushing and 5-starring it. Especially when a bad boy is involved. I hate wasting my time on whiny girls and guys that those girls should actually be fearing. :]


message 1724: by Hayley (new)

Hayley Hello, I'm Hayley! I love fiction, especially adventure/action, horror, paranormal, and fantasy genres. My favorite series include the Mortal Instruments, Tiger's Curse, Infernal Devices, Iron Fey, Blood of Eden, Pendragon, Divergent Trilogy, and Hunger Games Trilogy. I am currently in college and don't have much time for recreational reading during the school year, but I do love to read in my spare time!

message 1734: by asdfg (new)

asdfg | 5 comments Haha oh wow, everyone seems so nice here :D. I'm Azza, have fun figuring out how to pronounce that haha. I'm 16 (though I'm secretly still a kid on the inside). I'm easily amused and I like to read, laugh, have interesting conversations and try new things. Ahh I don't like to have favorites but books that have stuck in my mind are the Harry Potter series (brilliant), Vampire Academy (Rose is so awesome :o), Beautiful disaster by Jamie McGuire (first book that made me cry), Perfect Chemistry (or any other book by Simone Elkeles), The Hunger Games and 'His Dark Materials' collection. I'd love it if someone recommended a good book to me in the 'humor' or 'historical fiction' genre, as I've never tried those two. Anyways, enough of my babbling, take care all of yous :)
