I really enjoyed it too, but I need a serious pick me up now. I think I spent about half the book crying.

Me too. I cried for days.
I just finished
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?
I finished
just on saturday and today I'm going to start
, 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! :)

@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.

I've never heard of this book before. But I am intrigued and will check it out!

I don't know - right now I'm still not into the story, especially not into the characters... hope it the better for me soon.
Excited that the new Morganville Vampires book,
comes out today,, and I already have it qued up on my kindle
From Netgalley, i'm reading
it's interesting, kinda feels a lot like Water for Elephants because of the circus life setting.

I can't wait to read Bloodlines and the Golden Lily. I've never finished the vampire academy series so I'm currently rereading them before I start those two.So I just started

VA is soooo good. And this from someone who was totally burned out on all vamp books.
I'm reading Divergent and enjoying it so far. It's reminding me of The Hunger Games and Uglies series.

I agree. I'm not excited about The Casual Vacancy at all.
I finally got a hold of a copy of The Rise of Nine, book 3 in the I Am Number Four series... it's pretty good so far...

Are they doing more movies because I actually really liked the first one in spite of the whole shocking ghost writer controversy.
Finally I could finish
which I liked even less than the first book.And today I'm going to start with
to give Marr another chance to convince me :)
Finished
liked it more than I thought I would, but not my favorite book of the year...Trying to get to
