Traci - Out of all of those, go with the first in the Fever series! :)

[Mindy]

Traci, have you read "Shiver" it was really good!

This is what I would tell you about it. It is like they took the idea of a ranger from "Lord or the Rings" and made it it's own book. I really like them but that is what it remindes me of. I have read three of them waiting to get the 4th from the library!

[Sheila]

I'm just about to start The Sorceress by Michael Scott.

Yeah, I have. And I'm in the minority when I say, "Eh. It was okay." :x

[Jessica]

I just finished Never After by Dan Elconin. It was hilarious!

Now I am debating between Wintergirls, Beautiful Creatures and Shiver. Any opinions?

[Wendy-Lynn]

I will be starting The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan as soon as I receive it from Amazon.

[Laura]

Jessica - Although I know many people love Beautiful Creatures, I just couldn't get into it. I know it's well-written, but I thought the book dragged and the characters fell flat.

I did, however, love Shiver. The writing was beautiful and the story was completely engrossing. One of my favorite reads of last year.

And I've only heard good things about Wintergirls. It's on my TBR list.

[Heidi]

I agree with Laura about Beautiful Creatures and Shiver.

How about Bloody Jack!

[Traci]

No, I've never heard of that one before! Sounds interesting though, I added it to my TBR.. it just keeps growing exponentially! (never thought I'd get to use math terminology after high school! :D )

[Becca]

Angus, Thongs, etc. is laugh out loud funny. This girl has the driest humor ever and she is such a typical teenager. Was I ever like her in any way? Lol! Probably.

I actually liked the movie too. I bought a used copy of it and the soundtrack. I love good soundtracks.

[Jaimie]

agreed Becca! Georgia is hilarious!

Wasn't I practically shunned for wanting to use Wikipedia on a few series??

Say what??? I would never shun you Peep.

[Christine]

Need a great list of books (they aren't ALL YA - but most are) - check out this list: http://elanajohnson.blogspot.com/p/re... and check out the posts linked. Great reviews of too many great books to mention.

[Jessica]

Thanks Laura and Heidi for the feedback! I think I'll go with starting Wintergirls. I've heard fabulous things too and honestly Beautiful Creatures is a little bit daunting. It's a huge book!

I think I wanted to wikipedia Harry Potter and that RobP movie but was advised not to :(

Also, it's good to know that you won't shun me. I'll keep that in mind when I'm trying to come up with sarcastic remarks :)

[Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun)]

Oh... you can't wiki those, Peep. You have to use Wiki for bad stuff. HP is well worth the adventure.

[Peep (Pop! Pop!)]

I just found out that they have copies at my other library. I'll pick it up the next time I'm there. But be forewarned that I plan on adding it to the bottom of my tbr pile strictly out of spite. (But secretly I'm kin of excited to read it).

[Heidi]

Yeah Peep! I am super excited to see what you think, whenever you get to it.

[Traci]

*sigh* I've been reading Harry Potter since I was in the fourth grade.. It's so ridiculously ingrained in me.. it will forever be my true love. <3 :p

[Heidi]

It is forever my favorite YA too Traci. It is just such a wonderful story within such a wonderful world, and I started reading it in my 30's!

[Jessica]

I LOVE Harry Potter! I was a fangirl :).

[[deleted user]]

Peep - Do not Wiki Harry Potter or "that RobP movie"!

[Lani]

I'm currently reading and digging it. I'm a little over halfway through and am nervous how it's all going to end...

[Michelle]

Ohhh! LOVED The Secret Year. One of my favorites last year!
<3

[Rochelle]

Jessica - You should start Wintergirls or Shiver. Leave Beautiful Creatures for last.

[Terry (Ter05 TwiMoms/ MundieMoms)]

I loved Shiver and it had the added bonus that I love anything about wolves. My most recent great read in YA is The Iron King. Loved it - about faeries and the "other world".

Yeah!!

[Laura Beth]

I started Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter yesterday after my husband read it and am really enjoying it! Gives you a whole new outlook on history! :-)

[Laura]

Well, I have to admit that I did wiki the most recent RobP movie and was really glad that I did!

But Harry Potter is a must-read.

[[deleted user]]

Laura - Why are you glad that you Wiki'd it (without giving any spoilers away)?

Emily - I love Shiver! Can't wait for Linger!

Lani - I have The Secret Year on my TBR list so let me know how you like it when you're done. :)

[Amanda]

I've been working on new releases lately. Just finished Radiant Shadows (LOVED it) and am now reading Burned.

[Laura]

Shannen, I was thinking about seeing it, but I don't think I will now. That one particular major event seemed a little...contrived? As if they did what they did for shock value. And because of it, I really don't think I would have liked the film.

Did you enjoy the movie, even considering the part that I'm referring to?

(Btw, I would never do that for a good book or even a movie I was genuinely excited about.)

[Heidi]

Laura - that is what all the reviewers trashed in Remember Me. They said that "event"(I don't know what it is) was totally contrived and unnecessary.

[Laura]

Amanda, what did you think of the other Wicked Lovely books? How would you rate Radiant Shadows in comparison?

[Laura]

Hm, at least I'm on the same page with the reviewers! Are you going to see it, Heidi?

[Heidi]

Laura wrote: "Hm, at least I'm on the same page with the reviewers! Are you going to see it, Heidi?"

Only if I get it for free on DVD!

[Laura]

Haha. Probably a good plan for you!

[[deleted user]]

It's not the best movie I've seen but I enjoyed it. I liked the romance storyline as well as the sister's storyline. Rob Pattinson and Pierce Brosnan in one movie, what's not to love? LOL! I'll buy it as soon as it comes out on DVD. ;)

I think you should go for Beautiful creatures : )

[[deleted user]]

Beautiful Creatures first, then Shiver. Save the best for last. :)

I can't remember who else is was that hadn't read them either??

[Heidi]

Jaimie has not read them.

[Peep (Pop! Pop!)]

I think you guys should pick on her then. Is she reading them now I wonder?

I picked up two more books today. (not HP! I went to my town library, not the neighboring one). I have a problem. A serious problem.

[Heidi]

I think you have a guilt complex. No one is picking on you Peep.

[Peep (Pop! Pop!)]

It's all of the subtle and not so subtle peer pressure that's getting to me.

[Jaimie]

Yeah Peep, don't drag me down with you! Ha! I am going to read the first one but I have like 4 new releases at home and a couple others in the mail.
