I really liked Sorta Like a Rock Star -- after the first 100 pages I wasn't so sure about it but the second half really made it worth the read IMO

Bethany | 578 comments I just finished Lichgates (Grimoire Trilogy #1) by S. M. Boyce
This is an amazing book. One of the best I've read all year. It's YA fantasy, so if you're into that, and even if you're not, I would highly recommend this book. It's only $2.99 on kindle.

oh, and did I mention that it's amazing?

Tina ♥ Bookaholic (martinabookaholic) I finished Air (Akasha, #2) by Terra Harmony just on saturday and today I'm going to start Stardust by Neil Gaiman , which I'm looking forward to because I really loved the movie and I hope that I will also love the book. Keep finger's crossed! :)

Stardust is one of the few instances where I actually liked the movie better. But, the books still interesting. There's a lot thats different from the movie. Hopefully you'll enjoy it!

message 13670: by Tina ♥ Bookaholic (new)

Tina ♥ Bookaholic (martinabookaholic) @Bethany: At the moment I'm not very far and I don't know what to think about it because the writing manner is kind of weird for me, the way the author adresses the readers at the beginning... I don't know, hope I get into it better when I read on.

Oooh, I loved Stardust! I bet the book's even better knowing it's Neil Gaiman:)

That's one I'll miss. I just don't think I can appreciate JK writing a different genre.

So they DO have more books. Hmm. Are they doing more movies because I actually really liked the first one in spite of the whole shocking ghost writer controversy.
