Holy cow! Can I go shopping with your mum the next time she goes? That is a HAUL! You probably needed a truck!

Just bought the 1st and 2nd book of the Black Magician Trilogy by Trudi Canavan, and I'm so excited to read it!
I just bought The Fault In Our Stars. But I'm afraid to read it cuz from what I've heard it's very sad. And if I'll then I don't know when!

@Janie I'll try reading it. I just finished A Tailor-Made Life. It was also on cancer. I was happy at some points but I cried too :'(
My little sister and I just went to Barnes and noble the other day! Together we got Divergent, The Fault in Our Stars, got To Kill a Mockingbird, and A Game of Thrones. Woo! I want to finish all the books I got from my library before I start any of these!
I want to get Cuckoo's Calling :) Happy Birthday!

Wow, not bad!! A nice mix :)

I think Jen just read it too. Or maybe she just got it. You both have so any books you make my head spin. ;-)
David was torn and wasn't sure if he liked it or not. He couldn't decide on a 2 or a 4 so he rated it 3.
Yes!! Buddy read for sure. I'm ready when you are!

There is actually a fourth book in the series coming out later this year. It follows one of the characters from the first book.

Lol that's right. I was very mixed on it. I felt like crying for the last third if the book so I gave the author lots of credit for that. But I did want A LOT more from the book, in terms of events and world building. But maybe the sequels do more of that. Either way, I did enjoy it and I finished it in like two days :) Have fun!!
Jen, not sure if you can convince me to read the sequels? Right now I am leaning toward no but if you like them...I might have to give them a chance!
i have read all THREE books!!!
the following two books are awesome, though the second one is told from a different prospective and the third book is from her prospective again.
