The Catastrophic History of You and Me is pretty good, but sad. Black City has been on my TBR forever!

I picked up Catastrophic because of a blurb on the book from Lauren Oliver, praising it. And Black City has also been on my TBR list - I see a buddy read in our future . . .


I am very excited to read this one because it takes place the summer before her main character goes off to college. In interviews Sarah has explained that everything changes for this character and I can relate to this because my life turned up side down my senior year of high school as well. Sarah Dessen has a special place in my heart because I read a lot of her books in middle school and found my love for reading through her stories!
Also for those who bought the Hunger Games in paperback

LOL I love that you stalked the paperback of Catching FIre ha!
I just bought
because book 2 left me hanging!
I just bought


I just bought

I literally did! I bought the first one in paperback thinking the second one was going to be release soon after but I had to wait 2 years!

I sadly haven't gotten to buy any books lately though I did just order some copies of own new release :P




I LOVE THIS SERIES! I have read Undead and Unwed twice. If you like audiobooks these are hilarious! Betsy is the bomb! The last one Undead and Underwater wasn't good though but the rest are excellent!

Oh, I'm excited, too!! :)










Awesome! I just finished Legend and really liked it. I need to start Prodigy soon. Really liked Enclave, too! I just bought:





I also loved Legend and Prodigy, and also Enclave. The sequel, Outpost is really good, too. I think Horde comes out in September, and I think that finishes the series! I know, I can't wait for Champion, either!
I just checked, and
comes out October 29th, and that is the conclusion to the Razorland series. Can't wait!



Thanks! Just preordered Horde, too! Oh, and I forgot, but I bought

YAY! Could you believe that ending??? Shades of Earth was definitely my favorite of the series, its really intense!

Yeah, I got Outpost from the library too. So I am on that series now.

I liked Prodigy even more, it is my favorite so far. So third and I assume last one should be even better.




I have been seeing this book everywhere.


I have been sooooo sick all weekend and yesterday and today. Now I'm feeling a little better, but I'm behind on my reading again. =/

*sniff...sob...shudder*
I am going on one big book splurge after the 20th!!!

I bought this book
it is really good and has swoony romance that is 'clean' and there are no f bombs, basicilly i have to stay away from books with foul language like the f bomb and the smut scenes

Cool I prefer the clean stuff too ;)

I'm not a huge fan of constant swearing in books. Fine if it is used occasionally for effect or a purpose but I hate reading f this f that every few lines. I prefer authors who write good gripping dialogue.
