Jenny wrote: "Is it good, Katelyn? I've seen this book a few places, and wondered about it!"It's good so far, I'm about halfway in. It's definitely sad.
@Karen : I wish Santa also gave me one :( Actually they changed the cover here and I think it looks better :D

I'm rereading Angelfall so that I can read World After. It's funny how things slowly come back to you when you reread a book. And the things you notice the second time around.
I just finished
and I am so emotional right now. Through about 70% of this book I told myself "not sure how I feel" "not real sure I like this book" but I couldn't stop reading it and the ending tore me up! I am totally drained.
I'm reading
. For some reason I'm having a hard time getting into it and I'm still a little confused by what happened in the first few chapters. Does it become clearer as I read on?

I loved Champion so much, such a wonderful finale to a fantastic trilogy!

Yep, stick with it, the first book was just okay for me, but it really gets good in the second book :)

It just kind of creeps me out. I get it, that the story is tragic and understandable and all. I just really don't want to go down that slippery slope created by emotion and sympathy for the characters. It's just wrong on so many levels. I need to give the book to someone who wants to read it.
Reading
. Needed a J to finish my A-Z challenge and saw this one listed by a few in the group. So glad I picked it! Really good!

I'm with you, Jen. Don't think I could read it, either.

"Forbidden was a bit an awkward read because of the subject matter. I didn't cry but my heart literally broke of how sad this story is. I didn't read any novels for a week. Official Reading Slump.
Just started
. I'm a little late jumping on the train, but it's another book I've heard great things about and it's a favorite of one of my best friends.

Jenny wrote: "I loved Champion so much, such a wonderful finale to a fantastic trilogy!"I'm excited to go along! I've heard amazing things about the conclusion! It's a rarity nowadays for series having satisfying endings so fingers crossed for this one. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was really a fan of the earlier books.

I reached my goal of 540 books that I've read for the year. I'm a little over it but I haven't been reading much lately. I've actually been sleeping a lot, depression sinking in. I just read The Spider

Oh no now you guys make me want to buy the sequel asap!!
So, I didn't make it far in Divergent and it's getting put off again. I do want to read it, but I'm just not feeling a dystopian right now. Instead, I started reading
. Nothing special so far, but it's keeping my interest and I'm definitely interested in seeing where it goes.
I loved Tempest, Caitlyn, and also the sequel! One of the better time travels I've read--but I didn't like it as much as All Our Yesterdays!

If it makes you feel better I was not in love with Divergent. I know I am in the minority but I found it lacking in several areas.
