Any of the Rick Riordan YA books are really good. I enjoyed both Percy Jackson, the new series AND the Kane Chronicles. I haven't read one that wasn't a fun read yet!

Reading a galley of and so far I like it.

pretty cover!

I just listened to on our very long drive and it was absolutely fun. (except the cd that was scratched to bits) I now have a british accent in my head as I write this. I sound ever so posh;)

That's a lovely book. The prose is beautiful.

I am reading Reckless, by Cornelia Funke and am enjoying this imaginative tale.

I've started with today and though its kind of depressing, it's really thrilling

[Bethany]

I just finished . This was the first book by Sarah Dessen that I've read and I absolutely adored it. Very, very good book.

A lot of PJ fans were really nervous about the spin off series thinking that it wouldn't live up to the expectations, but I absolutely loved the new series and I haven't read any negative reviews. ..."

so, the first two books in the new series are out - do you know how much there will be?
When I know right, then the fist series had 5 books in it - am I right?

But I thought the new series is also about Percy and than he isn't even in the first book. Then who's the main character? a boy or a girl?

thanks for the recommendation, but what are the kane chronicles - haven't heard of it so far.
But is it YA or a child book again. though I like Percy Jackson, I still prefer Aduld or YA books, because I 'm a romantic typ of girl and I just need some couples and love in books :D

[Kristina]

I'm rereading the Sweet Valley High series with my best friend haha! Don't judge! :)

[Gwennie]

The main character in the first book is Jason. He's pretty awesome, and Percy is still kinda in the story... kinda. They're really good, you'll like them.

[Tina ♥ Bookaholic]

so, if I get that right Wendy - the new guy Jason is the 'hot guy' who'll have the romance in the book and Percy is the smart guy who'll show up but isn't the main character. right?

[Gwennie]

Normally you'd be so right, but I can happily say; nope, not at all! LOL!

I can't say too much without giving it away.

[Tina ♥ Bookaholic]

Jason's not hot but he's the main character?? WTF? oh, sorry... but I want a hot bunny boy for the main characters... otherwise it don't work for me :D

[Gwennie]

LMAO! He's not NOT hot... He's attractive of course, lol. I just meant that the books aren't really written with a token 'hot' guy.

What I meant was, that the outline isn't like you stated.

[Tina ♥ Bookaholic]

okay, now I see and know what you mean! Took a while but now I get it! :D
thanks :)

alright, but I guess after the series with Percy Jackson, I need a breadk of YA and child books and make a trip to adult books... and then I'll continue with the god's child again :)

haha...you're so funny! Jason actually is supposed to be really attractive and there IS a love story there. But, Percy will show up again in the second book. It's really hard to explain it all without giving away major plotlines of the series, but they are awesome and you'll love them. I believe Rick Riordan is going to make it a series of five books just like the PJ series.

[Gwennie]

LOL, see, you said more then me.

Jason is attractive, so is Percy. I just meant that these aren't really like, that kind of book. His being attractive doesn't really have much of a bearing on the story.

I kind of like them like that, though. In a sea full of romantic YA's.

:) I agree. It's refreshing. I actually really love the series because of the mythology and how the author makes it all so humorous...I just love it. I love PJ!

Just finished . Fantastic! Now starting

I didn't like eve that much- it was allright, but i think that I had too high of expectations. My daughter read glow and really liked it, but said it is sad! let us know what you think!

[Lauren]

Just got Beautiful Creatures

[Tina ♥ Bookaholic]

@Bethany & Wendy: Thanks girls that you like my not knowing - hope you had your fun with me - I had mine! :D

but now I'm totally up to date and now what you are talking... so I guess I really have to read fast so I can keep on with the new series.
And yes, I just love romance, but I also like it when it's funny and there is a good plot. And like you two sounds, the boook must be awesome! :)
thanks girls

Not YA, but I am excited to finally have this book in hand (kind of, on my kindle anyway)

So far, to me, it's reading very much like One Hundred Years of Solitude, but it's shorter, making it a little easier to take, I think. It's an interesting look at blame and memory.

[Regina]

Thanks Theo, I was not a fan of One Hundred Years (I am embarrassed to type this, but well there it is). So that is good to know.

Just found two here on Goodreads: Farsighted features a blind hero and an Indian heroine and Darwin's Children features a teen girl with superpowers. I like the multiracial aspect of both books (something the YA genre really needs to get more on board with). Farsighted is available for download here for 99 cents, so if you're looking for something refreshing, check it out.

OMG, and give Scott Tracey's Witch Eyes a shot too. Amazing book featuring a gay protagonist.

what did you think of every you every me???

[Brandi]

I liked Every You, Every Me. I didn't love that about half of the book was crossed out but I just pretended that it wasn't because I didn't think it really added anything. It took me a little bit to get into it, mostly because I was kind of confused about what was going on, but I ended up really interested. It was a very quick read.

[Sue]

Reading right now... wish I had more time to read this

Cassidy Jones and Vulcan's Gift just came out!! It is the 2nd in the series of Cassidy Jones Adventures and I can't wait to read it!! Cassidy Jones and Vulcan's Gift

PS friends. Could you do me a favor and vote for Luna Lovegood in the Tournament of Heroines? I'm advocating for her (it's against my other fave Sophie) and she's currently not winning which is sad face.

Done (however I am puzzled about how you could vote against someone from one of your favorite books!) I really liked Okay for Now on audio. At first I was like oh this is just ok (when he is describing the birds in full detail), but then I loved it.

[Cassi aka Snow White]

Well Sophie & Luna would have been my first choices. Yet they are against each other.

Did you read my argument for Luna? Honestly I feel like she's the more positive message though Sophie would be a blast to hang out with. (Plus I did love Luna first)

[Regina]

I just finished the audio of and I really enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite in the genre, but it was a great audio performance and pretty creative.
