LOL. I haven't read this book so I can't really comment on the character....so is this a must read?
I really really enjoy the audiobooks. So if you do that format at all it's a "must listen"
lol. maybe i will check it out. I haven't done an audio book for a long time. I used to love to listen to them on long car trips but now i have kids and its all disney movies all the time....
Ooohh how was Family Ties? I want to read Hex Hall!

(Hex Hall is one of the books I always push on people)

Hah hah, that's why you're awesome Cécilia. Although I would have been much more upset by the twist if I'd read them as they were published and had to wait a YEAR between each book to find out whether the awful thing was really true.
NOPE! My boy!!!*cuddles her copy of Hex Hall and Demonglass* Don't mess with my true love Wendy!

You know that Mercer would totally kick our butts anyway. *sigh* Besides, I'll take Will Herondale if I could only choose one.
*sigh* Ahh, Wendy, I admit, I was disappointed by the resolution. At first I was like "woh, that's really brave to write that kind of stuff ! Should be interesting" then I was "What ? ... Is it this easy ? MORE CHALLENGE I WANTED!" *yoda-ing*
Cassi (Is out of glitter *sadness*) wrote: "Well you know...she's all magical and stuff. [spoilers removed] In a fair fight she's rather clumsy."I could show him some magic.

HAHAHA.
I would let him cry on my shoulder for all the woes of his life. And his tattoo wouldn't bother me one bit.
Just started
today, I'm only 10% in so far, I have high expectations for this one, based on all the great review's it has gotten.
Er--right, back on track! Reviews have been really great for Divergent and Enclave.I'm reading FEED right now, which is fantastic so far. Post-apocalyptic world, with zombies.

Hahaha. The cute boy huh?? Now I want to read it even more to find out about this cute boy....and why you want to call early dibs on him....
I'm as scared of zombies as I am of It's clown. ;_;
On second thought Cambria, maybe you need to stay far far away from Hex Hall and leave the cute boy to me. ;-)I got enough competition with Wendy already

I was JUST thinking that. Pay no attention, Cambria, Hex Hall is not worth your time. *La la la*
Cécilia, so far the zombies have mostly retained a respectful distance. Although I'm guessing that changes.
LOL. I'm not gonna get between you two ladies and your true love. hahaha. But I am going to read this. I just got a few B&N gift cards and Hex Hall is on my list....;) Besides....There are plenty of hotties out there...you two go on and duke it out over this cute boy and I'll take one of them. Like....maybe Tucker from Unearthly or Riley from Intertwined. ;) Oh, or Damon from vampire Diaries.....yeah him.
So many boys....so little time.
Oh god, TUCKER. I loves me some Tucker, too.
Wendy wrote: "Oh god, TUCKER. I loves me some Tucker, too."See Wendy. Hex Hall boy is soooo not for you. Scurry along after this Tucker fellow.
(We must be in a silly mood tonight)
Now now. You already called dibbs on this cute boy. Why would you want a cute boy when you could have a cowboy like Tucker??? Maybe I'll call dibs on him....lol
What? This is how I always am.Cassi! Have you not read Unearthly? It's fantastic. The boy is very, very sweet. And the relationship develops naturally. And oh, um, the angel stuff is really good, too. The descriptions of wings and flying and such are awesome.
I'm on my to read list. It's completely out of control though so I don't know when it'll happen. But I do plan to read it!

wait...I thought it was Cassi that said she loved Tucker too.....Darn, Wendy you haven't called dibbs on anyone....are we gonna have to duke it out over Tucker? LOL. Just kidding!
@Cassi-you should totally read Unearthly-move it up on your list b/c it is that good. I bet you will love Tucker too!
I have 3 library books right now already (not counting the one I'm reading).My to read list has taken control and I am afraid for my life/time/soul.
*sigh* FINE. Cassi may have Hex Hall boy, Cambria may have Tucker, and I will keep the dashing, tormented Will Herondale in Victorian London. But I think we should just keep them all together somewhere on a pretty boy reservation, where they can all roam freely. That way we can all go visit...and we could add Dimitri and Adrian and others to the collection, too.
"Pretty Boy reservation"HAHAHAHAHAHA. BEST IDEA EVER!!!!!!!!!
hahaha. i know there are so many great books out there. But that's fine, take your time reading Unearthly....leave Tucker to me....and Wendy.
Lol.
Cambria wrote: "Ooohh how was Family Ties? I want to read Hex Hall!"Family Ties was great! Very different from End of the Line.
Cool! More to add to my to-read list....lol. maybe I should be scared to for my life/time/soul too.
I just got a copy of
from the library...can't wait to get started!!

Lol."
Tucker is pretty great. I actually felt for Christian a bit by the end of the book as well, and I didn't think that would happen, but it was hard not to after seeing why he was acting the way that he did.

"I feel the same way... I'm presently undecided between the two and will wait for the next book to see who'll be in the lead.
I finished
, and now I am starting
.
I just finished
and compared to some of her other books, I was a little disappointed. I just loaned
and
from the library and hope to get to them this weekend.
I have the new Sarah Dessen book waiting for me at the library........was it bad??
Susan wrote: "I have the new Sarah Dessen book waiting for me at the library........was it bad??"It wasn't bad...I just didn't click with the characters, they were kind of boring. Ususally I feel an emotional connection with her characters but I felt it was a little flat. Maybe because I recently read The Truth about Forever and it's my favorite book of hers....but No, it wasn't bad.
I love her books!! :) I'm still excited to read this one!! She is usually my go to author!!!
