message 1001: by Alejandra (Allie) (new)

Alejandra (Allie) (lost_at_hogwarts) I haven't posted on this thread for quite some time (which I apologize for) because of school work. I finished City of Ashes last week and it was amazing. This week I started reading City of Glass, but due to school work I couldn't get past half the book. It's really great and I can't wait for the next book, City of Fallen Angels. BTW, I've decided to buy the entire series in hardcover so I can re-read the series as I please.

Cast , The Fault in Our Stars by John Green , and Bloodrose (Nightshade, #3) by Andrea Cremer from my local public library. I can't wait to read Lenobia's Vow.

Right? I bought the book with the 'movie cover' (with Vanessa Hudgens and Alex Pettyfer) and after finishing Beastly I went to go see the movie. I was so upset, but thankfully my cousin paid for my food and ticket. ;)

I have had this book for a while now and tried to put off reading it hoping it would be on an upcoming BOTM but I couldn't wait and just finished the prologue to The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater . The last sentence gave me chills. Can't wait to read more.

Roni | 20 comments I'm reading A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, #1) by George R.R. Martin and loving every word of it! It's really well written and very intricate. The characters really do come alive in it. I'm only on page 300 and still have about 500 more to go, but I'm already sad to see it end.

I've been holding off on reading it. I watch the series and don't want to ruin it for myself by reading the books yet. The books are always better.

Well, I really think you should continue. Though if you don't like draggy stories, then I guess you shouldn't. Cause the story really is draggy and unreasonably slow. (Plus you might rant on how shallow Hanah's reasons are for killing herself)

I gave it 3.5 stars cause its got a good premise. :)


message 1047: by Janine Francine (new)

Janine Francine (janinebolanos) Bought Strange Angels (Strange Angels, #1) by Lili St. Crow I got excited and read this one first instead.
Welp, Lili St, Crow has a different style of writing. Good but....I dunno. Something's missing. I do hope this book gets more exciting. :-)
