I'm a little jealous. None of the thrift stores in my area have anything worth reading...

Miranda (somecrazygingerkid) I do "clean ups" often. Only exceptional or favorites stay permanently, others get removed. :) I don't care for keeping ones I didn't like on there. But last I checked ive got 258 books on the poor thing lol

Most of my books get "archived" after I've read them. They are in the cloud!

Never never never. This is grounds for walking in and kicking his ass. Want us to go with you? We can both kick his ass and take the book and possibly some other useful thing he took.

If he didn't move away, I would have kicked in his door by now. He has Insurgent and Hush Hush and I want them back. I should have custody, I'm the one that loves them! I can just imagine them all messed up apart and sitting somewhere dirty. :(

Oh yes I do. Just keep your eyes peeled for them on sale on Amazon or booksamillion.com and buy them on sale. Look at it this way, at least you'll be supporting great authors with your heard earned cash. :)

I haven't read it yet, just bought it the other day. I really get into zombie dystopians, and I loved Beautiful Disaster, so I figured it was a win/win when I saw the paperback at Walmart!

Ashes is the closest to zombies that I have read. I think I will have to push my fears aside and just read it. I mean she did write Beautiful Disaster and Walking Disaster and they were awesome, right? So how bad could it be.

Zoe Cannon (zoecannon) An even mix of sci-fi and YA fantasy dystopia for me this week:
Trust (Trang, #2) by Mary Sisson Aeralis (The Frost Chronicles, #5) by Kate Avery Ellison The Woodlands by Lauren Nicolle Taylor Trading in Danger (Vatta's War, #1) by Elizabeth Moon

(And I told myself I wasn't buying any books this week! So much for my e-reader being on a diet...)

The Moon Dwellers (The Dwellers, #1) by David Estes because it was free for my kindle (thanks David), but i plan on getting the paperback set anyway. just got it because it was free i guess :)

Yes, Emm!! When I first read it, I was so obsessed with The Scorpio Races. I really need to go back and read it again, I just remember being so moved by it, and the relationship with the horses and oh that ending! I was in tears, so incredible!

Kelly Hull (kellyvan) | 67 comments Okay guys, quit messing with my To Be Read list. Scorpio Races wasn't due for another three or four books. I think you may have inadvertently moved it to the top.
