But, I have the memory of a goldfish, so really had to read the first one again. The imagery is so beautiful. I love the way she writes. How are you finding DOSAB so far? :)

I had to re-read Smoke and Bone too before the new one :) It's one of my favorite books.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but no it doesn't pick up unfortunately. I had a hard time with this book and I was severely disappointed with the second installment. Thats just my opinion but I say read it for yourself :D

It's really good so far! I couldn't get into The different girl so I decided to switch it up from Ya to YA/thriller lol.

or not... ANY IDEAS?

I agree that matched was slow in its pacing but I really enjoyed it overall and I cant wait to have time to read Crossed. I say go for it as always!

, wich is incredibly cool so far.
is an amazing book to, allthough it doesn't have any paranormal things in it. Defenitly worth reading.

I'm finding it absolutely amazing. I totally agree with your co-workers! But because I watched the show first, my judgement is clouded by it, but it's still amazing, and they kept all the important parts in the show.

I just got the audio of the whole series so I'm going to listen to it.

I finished reading
by Karen Kingsbury last night and I really disappointed with it. The plot was very predictable, irritatingly repetitive, contrived and not very well-written. The concept of the story was interesting but the author is not a good enough writer to pull it off. This novel was simply too formulaic, too sweet, too predictable, too simplistic, too everything I don't like. The entire novel had that 'la-la-land' feel to it. My full review is here: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
Today I've started reading
by Stef Penney.

I actually posted a review if you are interested.. But for me, the book got slower as the book went on. It was an okay read.

How did you like Raven Boys? I am thinking of picking up this book but I am not quite sure... The cover doesn't really appeal to me.

The Raven Boys was OMG amazing:D The plot was really interesting and unique and the characters were great. I fell in love with the main couple Blue and Gansey, they were so awesome together.

You should definetly finish Cinder, it's a really great read. Let me know what you think of Easy. I haven't read that one yet but I am eager to know what you think of it. :)

I will finish Cinder, but first I'll read Easy. I'll let you know what I think of it. =)
Oh god,
is going to mess me up just like
did a few weeks ago. Damn and to think that I would have never even know these books if it weren't for this site. Most books I'm reading these days aren't translated in dutch (I'm from Belgium). Good thing my English is pretty good. Can't imagine what I would have missed out on if I didn't knew Goodreads.

I know! Most of the books I've read I would have never even heard about if not for GR!

I'm up to chapter 6 in
. I'm still bothered by the way the relationship between Charley and Reyes developed in the first book, and his behavior isn't any better so far, so I don't like Reyes much at the moment. I know a lot of people love him, but I still don't get the attraction. (view spoiler). The only thing keeping me going with those series is that I mostly like Charley, love Cookie, and already own all four books. At least they're fast reads.
Finished
. Not that anybody cares about my opinion and all, but my review on this book is also done, so. Yeah okay, nobody reads it anyway.I'm starting with
again.
Finished
and I think this is the last book of Elena and Raphael in the series at least for a while. :( I'm going to miss their POVs. Reading
and I'm really enjoying it. Going to start
. The movie trailer has me excited to start this and see the movie.

I am not sure how to attach the book cover to my post but I am currently reading the Hush Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick. I am on the last book, Finale, and it is an amazing series.
