★Meghan★ (starinheaven) | 247 comments So far it looks like I am in nothing new so far.


message 5: by Shay (new)

Shay | 330 comments Maybe I can salvage the month of May with this read-a-thon. (And the month of April, too) I noticed that my books read per month are declining and I think that I'm in kind of a reading slump since the beginning of May. I hope there are challenges this time. I loved the challenges.

Here are a few recommendations from your to-read list (I've read all three):

The Reader
Vampire Academy
The Mistress of the Art of Death

Three totally different books, but all three great reads! Good luck!

Also, it's a pretty fast read really. It's a good one!
