Jennifer Hummer | 3 comments Girl Unmoored by Jennifer Gooch Hummer

Girl Unmoored is eBook FREE until the end of the day today (July22)... Im the author, so I feel ridiculous posting this here. Please forgive me. I think this will be the only eBook give-away though. Again, so sorry to post about my own book!

I loved Graffiti Moon and I've been eager to read more from Cath Crowley. I hope this one is just as good!


message 13410: by Tellulah (new)

Tellulah Darling (tellulahdarling) Just finished book one of The Forbidden Game (The Forbidden Game, #1-3) by L.J. Smith Love the premise. Wish it was a bit darker/creepier but am definitely curious to see where it goes.

message 13415: by Traci (new)

Traci Just started Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson . I'm only a few pages in but I've heard good things and I have high hopes. Also just about finished with Rapture of the Deep Being an Account of the Further Adventures of Jacky Faber, Soldier, Sailor, Mermaid, Spy (Bloody Jack, #7) by L.A. Meyer on audio and while it's not my favorite Jacky adventure so far, it's definitely still very good :)

Kristina (kristinalawhead) going to start Life As We Knew It (Last Survivors, #1) by Susan Beth Pfeffer , anyone read it?


message 13422: by Caryn (new)

Caryn (carynreads) Kristina wrote: "going to start Life As We Knew It (Last Survivors, #1) by Susan Beth Pfeffer, anyone read it?"

I liked that one, but the other two books were just ok, in my opinion. The story felt so real that it was scary.

Heidi Kristina wrote: "going to start Life As We Knew It (Last Survivors, #1) by Susan Beth Pfeffer, anyone read it?"

I read it. It was very depressing but pretty good overall. I did not read the others in the series because I heard the same thing Caryn said - they weren't' as good.


message 13424: by Bethany (new)
