Started "Goddess Interrupted" by Aimee Carter
Has anyone read this? Is it good?
I'm hoping it would be good as the "Goddess test"
I've only read The Goddess Test, and I didn't like it very much..I'm reading:
I don't understand side B of the first cassette!

I liked it better than the first one! but i found Henry to get a little annoying sometimes and I cannot wait for the next one because i thought the ending was unexpected and a little shocking!

About Alex and his list of Who's Hot/Who's Not..

I can understand why you would dislike it though. A lot of people did.
But I don't know..it felt like a story that teens could connect to, and I liked the whole theme itself (:
Yeah, it is something that people can connect with but I think in reality people go through a lot worse than what Hanna went through. She went through a lot but not as much as some kids go through. I just found that she gave up too easily.

I definitely get where your coming from. We can't all like the same books, can we? (:

So stressed out. I have exams next week in all subjects and I am going on a mad study session this weekend. :(GR helps calm me down ^_^
Good, glad today's Friday. I'm dreading next week because I have a TON of school to catch up on and finish.
Mod
But, on the bright side, next week is my last week of school (THANK GOD) and the we have our graduation and I'M FREE FOR 2 MONTHS :D

^^Ugh. You are lucky. We're barely in our second term and I have deadlines for internals and exams coming up. It's all so stressful.
Anime on paper but black and white. Kinda like comics but Japanese-style.

Hey, I think that is a GREAT idea! Personally, I love a good manga every once in a while! Anytime, actually!
Nicole wrote: "Anime on paper but black and white. Kinda like comics but Japanese-style."Yup, and traditionally it's read from right to left.

Yay! :D
Anime doesn't HAVE to be black and white... Has any1 read DeathNote??? It's pending to read but there are 9 volumes and I know how addictive it is so I'm a little hesitant.
Well yeah, but manga is usually black and white. I haven't read Death Note yet, though many of my friends have, and they liked it. The only manga that I'm trying to keep track of are
and
. I used to be always updated with
, but I lost interest in the new season.
Ack. Started and finished A Monster Calls last night and my eyes still hurt from weeping so much. (poor soggy pillow)
I have no idea what to follow that up with.

A friend of mine is a HUGE fan of Bleach. I never really got into Naruto for some reason. Didn't connect with it.Vampire Knight... How's that?
Vampire Knight is SO amazing. I've only read up to vol. 11 because my library doesn't have the others -_- So I'm currently stuck on that. But it's really good. Though it can get a bit complicated sometimes.
Scott wrote: "I was thinking of a zombies theme!"That would be cool!
What's Vampire Knight about???
"Cross Adademy is attended by two groups of students: the Day Class and the Night Class. At twilight, when the students of the Day Class return to their dorm, they cross paths with the Night Class on their way to school. Yuki Cross and Zero Kiryu are the Guardians of the school, protecting the Day Class from the Academy's dark secret: the Night Class is full of vampires!
Yuki Cross has no memory of her past prior to the moment she was saved from a vampire attack ten years ago. She was adopted by the headmaster of Cross Academy, and now works alongside Zero to guard the Academy's secret. Yuki believes that vampires and humans can coexist peacefully, but her partner has different ideas..."
Ah.... I see... I think I've watched a few episodes of the anime based on this. I may be wrong...*frowns in recollection* Was 1 of the guys super duper fair???
Google informs me that the person I was remembering was him. Who incidentally, I now find rather interesting.
Let's have a Manga theme!!!
@Courtney - I read online scans. I'm now on Chapter 82. Yeah, the story gets complicated at times, like, I don't understand why the characters are doing this or that.Love Zero!! <3 He looks better in the manga than in the anime :P
And Yuuki is so pretty <3
A manga theme would be awesome, but not all might participate because only a few of us are interested in manga...
And zombies are cool, too.
I've tried reading online but I can't stay focused on the story if it's not in my hands. It's odd. And really, you like Zero the best? I prefer Kaname :P But yeah, I don't think manga would work.
Yeah, I've always liked Zero, even from the beginning. But I think you'll like him more when you reach Volume 14? I'm not sure. But as the story progresses, you'll learn more about Kaname's secrets... And Zero's...Well I won't say anything else, just that the story is getting more amazing as it progresses!

:O
yeah, I have to catch up on my reading-been lacking lately with school work! ;D
Usually people say that the other way around. The boring people I mean. Who think it's cool to not read..:))))
