Lol I have The Shining by Stephen King sitting on my shelf also but I'm too scared to read it. I might just give the book away to a friend that wanted it lol.

Tammy K. (rambles_of_a_reader) | 148 comments I am currently reading The goblin Massacre by Michael J. Schneider. It is currently free on Amazon. It is listed as an Adult Dystopian book, but I could not find it here on goodreads yet.
Then I plan on reading The Pineville Heist by Lee Chambers
The Pineville Heist by Lee Chambers
It is also free today on Amazon and is listed as a young adult, fun, lighthearted Mystery novella. I thought I might need something light after the first book.

Claire Gillian (claire_gillian) I"m reading Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices, #2) by Cassandra Clare then I think I need to tackle Sacrificial Magic (Downside Ghosts, #4) by Stacia Kane or Crossed (Matched, #2) by Ally Condie or Blood Red Road (Dust Lands, #1) by Moira Young

So many choices, so little time!

Shay (icylilies) | 49 comments I'm rereading Holes by Louis Sachar (I've been on a childhood book phase for the past couple of months), The Concubine's Daughter A Novel by Pai Kit Fai and The Language of God A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief by Francis S. Collins .

Believe it or not, I only bought Blood Red Road after seeing Moira Young at a writer's convention in Portland back in November I think it was. I liked her and how she described the book and answered the panel questions. I bought Lauren Oliver's Delirium for a similar reason though I'd heard of her book before and knew it was a huge bestseller. Ditto with Jennifer Eagan, Lindsey Leavitt, Chelsea Cain and eventually Kimberly Derting. Since then, I've heard nothing but great things and I think Ridley Scott bought film rights???

I heard about her at the writer's convention and it made me like her even more. I've always wanted to go to one but anyways.... Blood Red Road is awesome and I can't wait for the next book! It would be awesome if it's true that there's talk about a movie.

message 1513: by Brooke (new)

Brooke (thecovercontessa) Finished Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver last night and I thought it was excellent and suggest everyone read it! I moved on to Unwind (Unwind, #1) by Neal Shusterman which is ok so far and I'm still struggling with Ender's Game (Ender's Saga, #1) by Orson Scott Card and slowly reading The Sword Thief (39 Clues, #3) by Peter Lerangis

The Hunger Games Trilogy Boxset by Suzanne Collins (of course), The Stand by Stephen King , The Passage (The Passage #1) by Justin Cronin , Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher Unwind (Unwind, #1) by Neal Shusterman (reading this now and loving it), The Maze Runner (Maze Runner, #1) by James Dashner , Angelology by Danielle Trussoni , Daughter of Smoke and Bone (Daughter of Smoke and Bone, #1) by Laini Taylor (book of the year for me), Magyk (Septimus Heap, #1) by Angie Sage (adorable, fun series that has a Harry Potter feel, but not as dense). Hope this helps a little.

Hmmm...something funny, then. You could try some of the Harvard Lampoon: The Hunger Pains A Parody by The Harvard Lampoon Nightlight A Parody by The Harvard Lampoon or maybe The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Hitchhiker's Guide, #1) by Douglas Adams . I also find The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1) by Rick Riordan The Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #2) by Rick Riordan The Titan's Curse (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #3) by Rick Riordan The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #4) by Rick Riordan The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #5) by Rick Riordan to be quite amusing. One of my personal favorites is The White Darkness by Geraldine McCaughrean . Give it a try if you haven't already:)

That happens to me sometimes, usually after I finish a good series.
What I do is to find shorts. (less then 10,000 words) either off smashword or amazon until I'm ready for more.

Mercy Walker | 10 comments I just read the best novella by Ilona Andrews. Magic Dreams in the anhology Hexed. It wasn't a Kate Daniel's story, but it was set in that world with a white weretiger named Dali, and Kate's ex-partner Jim. It was so much fun, and it had enough going on in it it could've been a novel!

oh I am on the waiting list for this book. I don't want to read a review yet, but I really hope it's a good one.
I used to love the 'old' Anne Rice books, but when she stepped away from the paranormal fantasy, I dropped her like a hot potato.
I am hoping that she has returned to her former dark fantasy work.
