Ooh, looks like I need to get it. :D
Okay, I did find Untamed better than the third book in the House of Night series--less skanky Zoey and more Zoey, the High Priestess.Now, I'm starting Watchers in the Night by Jenna Black.
I'm reading

I just finished
which I loved, and last night I started
. Heard really good things about this one, so I have high hopes for it.

Started
I am determined to get through all of her books, really looking forward to this series :)
At the moment I'm reading
and will start
soon. And by the way I'm still stucked in
Sigh. I just finished up a Middle-Grade book
and am just not sure what to read next. Finish up one of the books I left off in the middle? Start something new? Bore myself to tears looking for work? Sigh.
Still working on
, reading an ARC of
, and starting
.
I finished
today, it was as good as everyone saidI also read
and I liked it but not as much as Jellicoe Road or Saving Francesca. I started reading Melina Marchetta because of you guys on goodreads and I can only thank you because her books are amazing. I'm falling in love!

I really, really wanted to start with
today after I've finished
, but after work I just needed somethig to relax me and so I started with
and wanted to read just a few pages... but now aaah... I'm again obsessed with it... *I'm a black Dagger-holic'* :D

Okay. I thought Nevermore's sequel would be out by now. Sigh. Since when did it get pushed back to August and will I survive the wait?
I'm reading restless. So I'm periodically reading both
and
. Now a little over 1/2 way on Angelfall.

Shatter Me was awesome! It took me a little while to get into it, but it was definitely worth it.

Finished
and started
. My boyfriend preordered a signed copy for each of us. I have a purple signature and he has the more appropriate green one. (Ya know, green for John Green) We are both enjoying it so far but for a change he is farther in the book than I am because he got a head start! They were delivered to his house. I am really already getting to know the characters and I am only on chapter 2. I love John Green because of his strong character development. Who else is reading it?
John Green is coming to speak at my work in 2 weeks and I am SO excited!!!!!
I got a signed copy of
as well (mine is in green). I haven't started reading it yet though because I'm finishing a few others. I can't wait to start it!

I feel you Cassi. No one ever comes to Tennessee either.
Brandi wrote: "I feel you Cassi. No one ever comes to Tennessee either."I'm directly between Knoxville & Lexington. I could go to events in EITHER place. But alas, nobody comes.

So far I've really liked the Queen of Babble books. I don't think they're for everyone, but I liked it. Give them a try some time to see what you think Juliann. :)
Started
. Hoping to read
too before
comes out.
Just finished both books in The Watchers Trilogy. Awakening and Legions... don't think the third one is out yet. I loved them. Totally good if you are into paranormal romance. Just started a Kim Harrison book, which is good.
