I have a lot of books out from the library at the moment, but I think the next few I'll probably read include:Pandemonium - Lauren Oliver
Article 5 - Kristen Simmons
Everneath - Brodi Ashton
Awaken - Katie Kacvinsky
Patient Zero - Jonathan Maberry
Fracture - Megan Miranda
I'm also tempted to reread Blood Red Road (Moira Young), the Vampire Academy series (Richelle Mead), and the first two books of the Newsflesh trilogy (Mira Grant).
How do you put book covers/links in comments?

Click "add book/author" right above the comment box and then click either "link" or cover, search the book you want, and hit "add"
my next 5 changes with the wind but i think my next 5 will be:1) The Rediscovery of Man
2) Star Wars: Path of Destruction
3) Intervention
4) Martian Time-Slip
5) The Great Book of Amber

I really liked Awaken! And you should definitely add both Blood Red Road and Vampire Academy to your list. They are both awesome. VA is one of my all time favorite series.
I've got
and
that should all be coming in for me very soon at the library.Well that's weird that they are all on different lines, oh well :)
1) The Rediscovery of Man - reading a short story or two between books. So far its been odd.2) Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
3) The Midwich Cuckoos
4) Star Wars: Vector Prime
5) The Chronicles of Amber

Not exactly sure of the order of these but here is what I'm planning on next...
I've already started on the first one and looking forward to the rest:
My next are...
more than five, but I'm not sure what order I'll be reading them yet. But this is what's in the pile for me :)
I've had quite a fantasy kick lately.Here are my next five:

Bethany wrote: Ooo, Amanda...you need to read City of Lost Souls!!! It was sooooo good! I have heard that, but I am just kind of annoyed at the series and where it was headed and I'm having a hard time finding the motivation to pick it up. She did the same thing with the Clockwork Prince novel and AHHHHHHHHHHH, I just can't get motivated to read it.

Well, my dear...let me help you out! Because I was not super motivated either. I was SO disappointed with the last book. But I heard a lot of people say that this one was better so I finally just started it. And, YEAH, it was definitely better. I can't help but have this separation in my mind between the first three books and the last three. And even if City of Heavenly Fire, like, blows me away. It still won't be better than the first three books for me. But that's just my opinion. But, as for City of Lost Souls as it's own book, I thought it was much stronger than the last one. And I struggled with putting it down, so that says something, lol.

I might start it when I finish the current book I'm reading. It has been on my Kindle for over a month and I just couldn't start it. Honestly, this serious should have just stopped after the 3rd book. She had it wrapped up in a pretty bow with a great story line and then the 4th book happened and I lost a lot of faith in where the story was going.

actually, Wicked was pretty good. I think you'll be amused how they portray Dorothy. If I recall correctly, it's how the girls grew up together. I liked it!
I have absolutely no YA in my next 5 books because I'm desperately trying to catch up on series I already started. My next 5 books are

I know, I have such high hopes for it! I'm trying to keep my expectations low since that's always safer. :)
I'm excited! I've had to put off reading these because of school, but I'm hoping to start them very soon.

NICE! I would say Divergent. Enclave. Maze Runner. Uglies. Matched. Thats just my personal opinion of best to worst. Not that Matched was terrible, just not very strong overall, IMO. But, regardless, that's a good list. You've got some great reading ahead of you!
To be honest i'm reading matched because my firned told me to. I'm not interested too much in stories that are only about love but we'll see how it goes. I'm mostly excited about Divergent, Maze Runner and Enclave ^.^
I see. Well, you may still enjoy it. I'm not trying to imply that it's total garbage. But it is one of those books that really centers around the romance. I just didn't think that the story was strong enough overall to make it a great book. You will LOVE Divergent, I can hardly put into words how amazing it is, but it's AMAZING! So, I hope you thoroughly enjoy it :)
