Yeah thanks Jenny - I got Hate List so now I will either switch it up for one of the challenge reads or just read it in addition to what I picked out. E books are just too damn easy to get, but gotta love those deals!
Here's a few more I just saw. If they are repeats from a previous page, sorry. Didn't check Sony, itunes, Diesel books, Kobo, etc. so you might want to check some other options if you're interested in the books and can't get these where you're at.

Oh that is right, I forgot about that! I have already listened to it, so that one on the schedule feel off my radar.
I just hate to see someone buy it, even on sale, when it will be free in under a month. I read it but heard that the audio is awesome and plan to download it once the free one is available.

I got my approval this morning and did a happy dance. I'm seriously excited to read it. I thought Shiver was good, if slow. Then Linger bored the hell out of me until the very end (even though I did like Cole). I still haven't read Forever. But I listened to the audio for The Scorpio Races and LOVED it. So her stuff is back on my good side. The Raven Boys sounds like it has the potential to be pretty damn awesome. I hope I'm not disappointed.
I still haven't read Forever either. The motivation has not been there. I'm one of the rare few who liked Linger much better than Shiver. Cole was much more interesting to me.
I'm trying to stay away from Galley's but I did request that one. I'm pretty excited for it.I liked Shiver, thought Linger was just okay, but I also haven't read Forever yet.
I've also heard that Scorpio Races was good, but haven't read it yet. I'll have to check that one out.

I want to read Raven Boys but I think Stiefvater's style of writing isn't my favorite. She writes beautifully but her books do have a slower pace to them.
Wendy, if you do audio books, I reccomend Scorpio Races on audio. Really helps set the scene. And hers are slower in pace, which I think is easier on audio. I tried Shiver and didn't make it past chapter 2, but I LOVED Scorpio Races.
She's definitely slower paced. It's a lyrical prose to me, pretty.If I had a commute I would totally do audio, as it is it's hard to do for me because when I try to do it cleaning or cooking I find I'm not paying attention. And when I'm just chilling, it's usually with my hubby and he's not interested in Audios.
The audio for Scorpio Races is 700 shades of amazing. It was done with a girl and a guy alternating according to whichever POV was up at bat. If I would have read it, I highly doubt I would have liked it as much as I did.
I LOVED the audio. But I think I would have liked it just as much (or maybe only slightly less) if I had read rather than listened. Because Puck is so goddamn awesome. I love her narrative voice and her saucy attitude. Sean is cool too, but Puck's character and the setting made the book for me.

I requested The Raven Boys awhile ago and was denied. I really enjoyed Shiver but the rest went down hill from there. I was hoping this next series was better. I guess i'll just wait till it's out.
Sometimes they take foreveeeerrrrrrrr and then a response comes out of nowhere. I have noticed on Edelweis, they review they are denials. I have been rejected but then without me asking again, I get an approval months later.I am not requesting it b/c while I think parts of Shiver were beautiful and unique and some bits stay with me, I was incredibly bored during that book.
Ladies - Thanks for recommending the audio for the Scorpio races. I just put in my wish list at the library!
