Mei (meijey) | 3810 comments I'm 13% done reading with Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices, #1) by Cassandra Clare . Curious what the hype about this book is all about, I guess :)

Yeah, I tried reading it yesterday. I read half and skimmed the end. I didn't really like the relationship between the main characters...it was kind of sick the way he's first (view spoiler) at least it ended well.


message 1505: by Marie (new)

Marie | 257 comments YesterdayI finished Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2) by Tahereh Mafi . I had some(okay, a lot) of issues with it but it was entertaining. I also finished Sweet Evil (The Sweet Trilogy, #1) by Wendy Higgins and it was probably my biggest dissapointement of 2013. I gave it a 3/5 because it was an okay red but now that I had time to reflect on it I realize that there is nothing in this book that I actually liked. The plot was boring the dialgues didn't feel natural at all, the characters felt unidimensional and clichés and I was so surethat I would fell in love with Kaidan from the descriptions of him I had read in reviews but I found him quite boring sadly. I also found the romance way too rushed and superficial. I can understand why people liked Sweet Evil but I feel like I've read way too many books exactly like thisone to really enjoy it. I will still read the sequel, maybe I'll like this one better.

I also started The Rules (Project Paper Doll, #1) by Stacey Kade and I was hesitant to start it because the synopsis didn't really appeal to me and I didn't want to be dissapointed because I love the author but I love it so far.

Greta (goodreadsgreta) | 4545 comments Started School Spirits (School Spirits, #1) by Rachel Hawkins last night... So far it's just as enjoyable as Hex Hall.
Also started If I Should Die (Revenants, #3) by Amy Plum which I kindof wish I could just skim through to get answers. It's not as action/romance filled as the first two books.

To spare you from my review, which was really incoherent and long: It was amazingly frustrating (: I gave it 4,5 stars.

He's not much of a reader actually :D

But I love him and he loves me and he understands why I cry over the death of fictional characters, and he buys me books and doesn't bother me when I'm reading and asks me about it when I'm done and then he goes and buys me more books and.... I could go on and on. We make it work. :D Sorry for the long reply :D

So what are you currently reading? :)

Kyra I just finished Fragments (Partials, #2) by Dan Wells , which was not as good as the first one. I'm currently reading Warm Bodies (Warm Bodies, #1) by Isaac Marion , so my friend and I can watch it later this week. Off-topic: I ordered a Kindle! I'm so excited :D

It was really good though it's confusing start. I hope the next one is better :)


message 1541: by Marie (new)

Marie | 257 comments These past few days I read (Un)like a Virgin by Lucy-Anne Holmes ( I really liked it), The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald (Good) The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1) by Rick Riordan (Good, but a little dissapointed. I think I'll enjoy the rest of the series better when I get to know the characters better).

I'm now reading The Princess Bride  by William Goldman and I'm really enjoying it but the annotation and introduction by W.G. are often quite annoying.

The first book reminded me of a little bit of a cross between the Hunger Games and Divergent. I'm not that far into the second book yet.

Well, sometimes I end up with a lot of books on my currently reading shelf because the books aren't great but I'm still committed to finishing them. That's kindof the way I feel about Tiger's Destiny and about Splintered. The Tiger book is so annoying to read. I am not interested in the useless detail, andi just wish the plot would advance faster.

Is that a retelling of the original Princess Bride?
