I"m about to read the Hobbit for the first time!!! =D

[Beth]

Alice, I think you'll like it :) I've been wanting to read it again for a while, plus it will be nice to have read it again before I see the movie when it comes out on DVD.

Also, I hope to read at least the first Lord of the Rings book since I've never read them.

That sounds a lot like the movie "Marie Antoinette" with Kirsten Dunst. Although I know that movie was based on a different book. this one sounds very similar though - sounds good!!

Yesterday I finished by Jennifer Donnelly. The Tea Rose is an extremely well-researched and well-written novel which is packed full of unexpected twists and turns throughout the story. I absolutely enjoyed this book! I thought this book was very gripping, intriguing and engrossing tale and I found it very hard to put it down for long. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next! I fell in love with all the main characters. They were all so interesting, compelling and very well-developed, especially Fiona. As soon as I finished this novel I brought the sequel, The Winter Rose, on my Kindle and I'm really looking forward to reading it!

Good luck, I found this book very hard, but also interesting. Very different from the hobbit or LOTR.

It's really good!! At the beginning it took me a while to get into it ... and I really wanted to read the Return of the King, plus Beauty and the Beast isn't my favuorite fairytale ... but I really enjoyed it! Definately worth the read :)

Atm I really want to buy this: The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - Visual Companion. It looks awesome from the sneak peeks on Amazon :)

OMG......Alice this is my MOST FAVORITE BOOK E..."

LOL really??? your favorite?? thats interesting. I LOVE Ann Rinaldi but I must admit, this wasn't one of my favs of hers. :/ don't get me wrong- it was still really good and I don't think I could ever DISlike something of hers, but it wasnt my fav. :/ I still like Redheaded Princess and Mutiny's Daughter probably best (thats what got me hooked on her). I also liked the Last Silk Dress although it had a few issues. lol
OH I really liked 5th of March too!!!! glad to learn you love this author as well! <3

[Kim-Lost-In-A-Book]

I like it when the author can get the relationship/romance across without making it too....romantic. lol ;P

[Leslie]

Finished and now starting the next book in the series

[Aerykah]

Finished Code Blue! It was really good! :)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

Took me a bit longer than I expected... ;P
I'm discussing it with my friend now & plan to start another buddy read soon. :)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

what are you gonna read w/ your "buddy"? :)

[Aerykah]

We're going to be reading McKenzie by Penny Zeller. I don't know when, though. Depends on what she's got going on & when she'll be ready to start reading...

[Salyna]

Short Straw Bride by Karen Witemeyer

[Aoibhínn]

I've finished reading by Jojo Moyes and by Ernest Hemingway.

I loved Me Before You from beginning to the end. It's a very complex novel. It is well-written, heart-breaking, gripping and deeply moving. I cried my eyes out several times while reading this book. I don't think I've ever cried this much while reading a book before! This novel deals with the topic of euthanasia and could have been really depressing but it's a credit to the skill of the author that she makes the book so readable. This is a thought provoking story and, whatever you feel about assisted suicide, it will make you think about how you would cope if suddenly all your choices and decisions were taken away from you and you had to rely on others to do everything for you. I gave this book 4.5 Stars!

cool beans. :)
I WAS reading , but did the unthinkable of looking ahead and realized it ended the EXACT OPPOSITE of how I wanted it to!!!!!!! SO- I have done aNOTHER unthinkable and decided to not finish it *gasp*. Instead I am reading , which I KNOW I will love because I've read the first one already and fell in love with it, and I have it from a very reliable source (aka: Soph) that is is just as amazing. :)

That's a good one, Salyna! ;)

[Aerykah]

@Alice - Shame on you!! ;P Hope you enjoy the new one, though. :)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

LOL ;P Im sorry!!!! but I was depressed and knew that it would ruin the rest of the book anyway and I have 17 books sitting by my bed that I've bought THIS year with 7 more in the mail- so I decided to forgo all library books and focus on mine. :)

Yes! Especially when I have a big pile to choose from - I have the hardest time deciding what to read next. I try to mix it up with genres but sometimes I just get in a pattern of reading a certain genre so that makes the decision making process harder lol
