I finally finished
! It took me two weeks! Its so long! Anyways. I returned it to the library and picked up
,
, and
. I will probably read them in that order.
Alot of you wrote to me about The Death Cure so I have to spread the good news. I was just contacted - IT's NOT Over. In August of 2012 they are going to release a prequel to the Maze Runner called The Kill Order.
I finished
Not sure what to start next. I have 10 books waiting to be picked up from the library tomorrow so I'm very excited!
@Jody got that already on my book shelf with all the other unread books lol I too am keen to read it but want to finish Vampire Academy series...wish I could read more than one book at a time lol
I was going to buy it too, but I ended up resisting, I really need to do some Christmas shopping. You read it first then let me know if it is any good lol.I hate reading more than one book and every time I do it, I say never agian. Then I go and do it again. I cant help it. This time never agian hahaha
LOL no I've got to concentrate on one book at a time otherwise my head will explode...but I'll definitely let you know when I do read it!! Reviews look really good
I know, I think it will be good. Dam having to buy so many Christmas presents hahahaha. Actually I did buy a book a kmart today, so I dont know what Im going on about. Its like I cant help myself. I think Im an addict!
LOL I hear you I have been labelled "The Book Whore" by my husband...fitting I say since I just buy books every time I go to the shops or online lol
Ive been waiting weeks and weeks for some books I have ordered online. I cant even remember what they are.I have my Wicked Lovely set now too. Dont think I will be getting to that until 2012 lol
yeah I know what you mean..definitely won't be starting those either till next year for sure...I just downloaded a few on my iPhone also lol shelves everywhere are getting filled...I think I'll ask Santa for some free time to read them all lol

!"Well, those are my two fave books of the year! Enjoy!!
I'm currently reading Forever and I'm already halfway to the ending. I'm quite disappointed because i'm expecting too much from the series but as i finish each book i'm not that satisfied.
I do still hope that even though i'm near finishing it there will still be a lot of good things that'll happen.
Halfway through
I am determined to finally finish this especially since it is due tomorrow. Then I just picked up
although I haven't even read
yet so I have to do that first LOL It came into the library quicker than I expected. Very excited for all these books I don't even know where I will begin

Finished
which was just fantastic! Nearly done with
then taking a break from VA to read
Cant wait!! Then I just got
in the mail today so that will be next!
Jennifer - Darker Still was simply fabulous! I devoured it, I loved it, and I am looking forward to future books.

I still got to buy Crossed and I have Firelight on my shelf but I'm only at the beginning of
and need to read the rest before I get started on any other book!!!

For YA...I am currently listening to A Great and Terrible Beauty. I'd attempted to sit down and read the book twice but hadn't been able to get beyond the first 50 pages or so. I borrowed the audio version from the library and am just starting disc 8 (or possibly 9) of 10 (or 11). Plus, I picked up the next audio (Rebel Angels) to start during our holiday travels this weekend.
Very soon I will be starting The Annotated Peter Pan (The Centennial Edition). I need to finish it by December 11 for another book club, so we'll see how that cruises along. I guess it's probably more "children's" classification than "YA," but thought it still appropriate to mention here. :o)
Heinzypop - To be honest, if I wasn't doing it in audio this time and "captive in my vehicle," I likely wouldn't have made it this far. There are pieces of the story I'm really enjoying (now that I've gotten far enough into it for the key characters to form and for interesting events to occur), but I don't find I'm extending my travels or staying in my car even after I arrive at my destination to squeeze out a few more minutes of the story. I think it's just too slow of a plot for my taste.I picked up the audio of the second book in the series hoping the first will end at a place leaving me wanting to know more about the characters and where they're headed. Plus, I need something to listen to during our eight hour (total) road trip this weekend. :o)
I've heard such positive reviews about the series and people who really love it, so I feel like I "should" give it the benefit of the doubt. We'll see what happens.
I know I'm like that with so many other books e.g The Host by Stephenie Meyer took ages to start but I kept at it and finally it took off but Terrible Beauty like you I re-read the first few chapters so many times and I just couldn't do it anymore...sometimes you've just got to let go and go onto better stories...but maybe listening to the story might make it easier...

Cant wait for you to read about Dimitri!!
Yeah it's sometimes good to take a break it gets a little overwhelming lol yeah I really haven't had time these last couple of days but I'm hoping tonight I should make a good dent in the book
Good morning, Jenni!Did you read A Great and Terrible Beauty? What did you think of it?
How is Rebel Angels in terms of pacing when compared to A Great and Terrible Beauty?
I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
finally arrived at the library! I cant wait. I have been wanting to read it for so long but it took months for my order to come. I will finish
first though.
Rebecca - I look forward to hearing what you think of Poison Study. It's on by TBR list and I'm hoping to get to it in 2012. :o)
Krista "Nayana" - I have to admit it took me a little while to get into A Great and Terrible Beauty. Towards the last half I started to really like it though. I'm not very far into Rebel Angels yet though but I can't wait to find out what happens now. So hopefully I get some time to read later!
