I'm slowly getting out of my reading slump. Finally! I'm still reading
and it's really good. I've always wanted to read a book with a concept like this one.

Just about to start Immortal Beloved. It's a buddy read, so anyone who is interested feel free to join :)

which is very different from what I expected."
was so awesome! Loved that book! The female characters have a really good chemistry and Trent...my heart melted for Trent!
I'm currently reading The Fault in Our Stars but it's the collectors edition. I'm liking it so far :)
From what I can tell with the collectors edition is it's just a Q & A with the author at the end of the book. But I haven't read the book before so I don't know if he added more things into the story, but I have a feeling it's just the Q & A with John Green
Q & A with the author? I like those. I'll probably buy this edition then since I haven't bought this book yet ;)
I'm only a few pages in, but I really like this book so far. I think John Green is becoming one of my new favorite authors
I've only read a 2 books of him yet but I really loved on of them and was had mixed thoughts on the other. I love his videos on youtube.I've just finished
and I really loved it. Very exiting and entertaning and while I saw the ending coming, I loved it. I really don't know what book I should read next. Any suggestions?

and I reall..."Hmmm..it depends on what type of book you feel like reading? Dystopian, paranormal, realistic, romantic?
I like a little bit of everything. I think what I'm looking foreward these days is a book with a good twists or/and that'll leave me wanting for more once it's over ;)

it's contemporary romance but it has a good twits and surprises. When I read it I couldn't predict where the story goes.
Marie wrote: "I like a little bit of everything.

You could try the sequel, Unravel Me. It was awesome! A couple of major twists!
Or you could try Shadow and Bone...I remember at had a real game changer in it.
Or Hopeless which is really emotional, but alo has a couple surprises.
I'll definively check Want Rachmi, I've heard about this book last year but I totally forgot about it!And I'll read Unravel Me but I think I'll probably wait for the paperpack since I was a little dissapointed with Shatter me and I'm really not a fan of one of the characters. Maybe I'll borrow it.
I've read Shadow and Bone last year and really liked it.
I've been hearing a lot about Hopeless these past days and to be honest, I wasn't looking forward to read it but I'm getting more and more curious about it. If they have it at my bookstore next time I go, I'm pretty sure I'll buy it!
Also, I've just started
. It's been a long time since I've stated a sequel just after I've finished the first book in a serie but I enjoyed The hunt so much and since I already had The Prey on my shelf, I couldn't resist, I was too curious!

i liked it, but i didnt love it. i would probably be interested in book 2 . there wasnt a lot of action in the first book, but i can see how the story has potential. plus i thought the main character was pretty funny .
I'm reading
, and I'm enjoying it so far. I'm also reading
and have just got to the climax of the story.

due to the raves it's been getting, maybe it didn't just work for me."I hate it when that happens, everyone is so enthusiastic about the book and you can't see what's so good about it. Happened to me a couple days ago
It felt like I'm not normal, haha. I also hate being stuck on a reading slump, having read books consecutively that you didn't like.
Exactly!About the reading slump, if I don't get into a book, I simply give it up, with no second thoughts. I have loads of books to read, so I don't make myself read something I'm not liking.
I actually learned my lesson, I usually hate giving up on books that I already started reading. But now, I only read books that I could really get into.
Ivanna...too bad about
:( I almost gave up on it myself, but the ending redeemed it for me. I'm reading The Athena Effect (based on your recommendation) and loving it so far :)
I also felt the same way about Everneath, I like how everything ended which made me want to read Neverfall. I just finished reading it, I guess it's safe to say that this series didn't really work out for me. I'm not so sure if I would get around reading Everbound - maybe sometime but it's not a priority.Let me know what you think of The Athena Effect, I really enjoyed it.

Now I'm reading
which reminds me a little of the Bourne Identity.

actually, it is pretty slow throughout
but its great insight into Warner

i feel strangely between books at the moment. i finished
last night, and it was such a fast, good read. This week's story-telling challenge is to read a "kiss on the cover" book. anyone got suggestions? and it actually can count also for the February Love challenge AND for the Group Stat challenge.
I just finished
and WOW. I don't think I've ever felt so many different emotions that I did while reading the last 30 pages of that book. I'm about to (finally!) start

I can't do sad books! I was a wreck after 13 Reasons Why. I don't think I could manage this one!

Erin, I found John Green Vlogs on YouTube where he reads chapters one and two. It really is good stuff. I might have to continue, despite my fears.
