My friend's kid is like that. she now goes to an alternative high school with smaller classes. It doesn't bother me. You should be ok for exams. You just need to think about the exam and block them out. It will be quite anyway. Good luck on your exams. I miss those days.

I'm currently on number 187 for the year. I'm gonna try and make it to 190 to finish off the year, but all these holiday get togethers are getting in the way of my reading!
I just finished Shattered and it bowled me over. AMAZING It's not the type of book I usually read, but there were so many good reviews for it that I had to give it a go. Very glad i did.

No, no, seriously, put everything aside and put this book first. I stopped the book I was into 1/3 through (don't worry, we're back together again) because I was so curious about this one. I read it in 5 hours today - non stop - I let my kids starve and ignored my wife because this one is just that good. So my wife fed the kids and now she has the book. I haven't seen her since dinner.:)
I just started The War of the Flowers by Tad Williams. I'm still in the middle of several other books, but I'm like that; I get so excited to find out the plot, the reason I read in the first place, and I can't contain myself. Plus, at being the very early morning of 12/30/12 (2:21 am), I have given up on focusing upon my yearly goal that would require 4 or five more books tbr by Jan 1st.
Currently i am STILL reading
which i haven't been able to read very much of because of school and work.

tonight (and reached my yearly challenge goal, yay!!) and I was very pleasantly surprised. It ..."Well 187 books is totally AMAZING ... hope you manage to get those 3 books in before the end of the year *fingers crossed*
Mod
I was expecting a SGT read with the praise Erin gave it but yeah wasnt for me,maybe another day Ill finish it ..."
The editing issues weren't that bad; some of the favorite reads we've all loved had similar issues (some from my absolute favorite authors), and I caught them but loved the books anyway. I do think I've seen it so often now that I just look past it, because I know not everyone had all of that crap drilled into them like I did when I grew up. Wish you gals loved this one as much as I did, the story itself is beautiful. It's not perfect, but beautiful nonetheless.
Mod
LOL Well I'm glad you enjoyed it, I couldn't agree more with your sentiments! =)
Mod
tonight (and reached my yearly challenge goal, yay!!) and I was very pleasantly surprised. It ..."Thanks hun! I hope you get to reach your goal but 187 is still amazing, too!!

Erin, I love it so far!!!! I really love Garrett's character eventhough, you know...he's not in it. So sad. But still, I love Jesse....I love Jan. They're all great! It might not be as amazing as SGT but I can see the similarities. So far, it's got me captivated! :)

my tbr list is out of control!!

Mod

I loved Garrett and Jesse, my heart just broke for all 3 of them. The way she was so completely heartbroken until he was able to pull himself together and fix both of them is what reminded me so much of SGT; I had that same feeling of desperation for the one that always held her heart to come back and be the thing she'd always needed, ya know? Very different situations and SGT had a lot more time to draw out the emotions, but lordy it still turned my heart to mush!! =)
Mod
was really good and I'm looking forward to more of the sexy Sullivans!! I couldn't resist reading
even though I know I now have a torturous wait for the next book, and Kelli Maine once again impressed me with some steamy hotness!! Finished
tonight and it was pretty good but really dragged and had me seeing red for way too many chapters. I'm now bound and determined to finish
tomorrow so I can officially have 300 books read for 2012. Then I can kick back and take my time with
,
, and
to kick off the new year!! Woot!!
Mod

Just like Twilight opened my eyes to how great YA was in 2011, I definitely had a wake-up call with the PNR this year (okay, and the dark erotica...). There's just something about the freedom to be as mind-blowingly sexy as they want while having that captivating supernatural element to it that make it so damned addicting!! LOL
Mod

I am reading black city by Elizabeth Richards

I know. God I love Garrett...he's like the voice of reasoning. I swear I wanted to beat the shit out of Collin and I can't stand her mom. This is so emotional!!! I really love it. Yeah I see grammar and spelling errors pop up a bit but I don't let that retract from the story. Write a whole book and edit a few times, it still won't be perfect! JS!
The only thing I wish is that we would have gotten Nick's pov...that's what I like about this one. Love Jesse and his stubborn sexy ass!! :)

ARC. I wanted to finish today, not sure that will happen.
have heard really great things but it seems I'm not a huge contemporary romance type of girl as whenever they have been recommended I have not liked them as much as others. Something will have to wow me to keep me there. We shall see. Reading it for a blog tour.
