Belkis (bminaya) | 133 comments I finished reading The Moon Dwellers (The Dwellers, #1) by David Estes yesterday and it was really good. The ending! David, that ending! I'm going to have to read The Star Dwellers (The Dwellers, #2) by David Estes soon so I can find out what happens next for Adele & Tristan. Then I read Sweet Little Thing (Sweet Thing, #1.5) by Renée Carlino and really enjoyed it too. Now started Murder of Crows (The Others, #2) by Anne Bishop and so far it's really good.

Yup this is true, I can't do it on my phone either. I don't think most apps have that option. I can only do it on my PC or laptop.

It's got multiple POVs, but so far, I don't feel lost. I find the MCs very engaging, except for Lily :P Maybe I will like her eventually.

message 6284: by Donna (new)

Donna (donanicole) | 897 comments I just wanted to ask everyone if you are like me: I have so many books to read. I keep switching books and therefore not getting through or really into any of them. I can really only get into one book at a time but another book seduces me away and then I feel guilty about the one I left so I go back to it. This goes on and on. It just has to stop. I must be monogamous for a while at least. Anybody relate?

Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments I am currently reading and LOVING The Book Thief by Markus Zusak ! I haven't read anything before pertaining to German history. This makes me want to go read The Diary of Anne Frank. Anyone read it?


message 6289: by Heidi (new)

Heidi | 2372 comments I loved Anne Frank when I was younger. I would give it a read if I were you - just keep in mind it was written by a real teenager (I think she was 13 at the start?)


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments DNicole I have so many books I want to read on my list and even though I have 4 or 5 books on my Kindle I make myself read all of one before reading another one, otherwise I'd never finish anything :)

Thanks Heidi for the advice on The Diary of Anne Frank.

I absolutely loved The Silver Linings Playbook, I mean I really loved it, so I thought it would try another one of Matthew Quick's books. The main character is definitely interesting so far haha.

I can only read one at a time or I'll never finish them LOL. But sometimes I do put a book aside to read another for a buddy read and then eventually go back to the first one :)


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments Anyone read The Fault In Our Stars? I am thinking of reading this next. Opinions?

Love. That. Book! If you like contemporary that's sad but with a really good message, then it's for you!


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments Thanks David!

Kritika (spidersilksnowflakes) Rfuentes wrote: "Anyone read The Fault In Our Stars? I am thinking of reading this next. Opinions?"

I'm in the minority - I didn't like it all that much. It's definitely very sad but I personally felt like it was too contrived (but then again, John Green. enough said haha). All my friends have loved it though, so I think you'll probably like it :)
