Divya Uhhh, juggling four books at a time!
Dark Triumph (His Fair Assassin, #2) by Robin LaFevers , Essence by A.L. Waddington , The Elf Girl (Journey into the Realm, #1) by Markelle Grabo , Eon Dragoneye Reborn (Eon, #1) by Alison Goodman .

I have fallen so behind on my reviews! This is so frustrating!

Lauren Stoolfire | 2047 comments Specials (Uglies, #3) by Scott Westerfeld I figure I'll give it a chance...even after Pretties.

I just finished Frog Music by Emma Donoghue and I couldn't really get into it. I actually liked the historical afterward a good deal more than the actual story.

OK as I am the senior member of the group I am declaring a reboot of all start times. Everybody is officially on time now.

And on that note - you remember how we hated getting carded because we felt like we looked so young? Well, things change . . . now I get carded because I might be too old. LOL! Fortunately I'm able to say "nope, not a senior yet. . ." They're always afraid they're going to offend me. I think it's hilarious! Gah, do I really look THAT old? Hand me some more YA!

Seriously, right, Jen??! I have a theatre close by that gives senior discounts for 55. So I get carded there now. And yes, I get the discount. :-P.

And being the other senior member of the group, I concur that no one is behind. Reading is fun, not stressful. Read as you can when you can. No pressure!! :)

Lauren Stoolfire | 2047 comments I just finished Hammered (Iron Druid Chronicles, #3) by Kevin Hearne and it was awesome! Really makes me wish I had Tricked (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #4) by Kevin Hearne on a playaway, too, after that ending!! :)

Now I'm listening to Beauty Queens by Libba Bray and so far I'm loving the humor! :D

I need to read Scarlet soon. I LOVED Cinder. How's Potter going for you? If you've liked Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets, buckle up. The series gets really great book 3.

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 957 comments I'm gonna start reading Prodigy (Legend, #2) by Marie Lu tonight. I liked Legend but it didn't quite blow me away(loved the ending though). I keep hearing Prodigy is better, so my hopes are fairly high.

Oh gosh, now I feel awful! I hope you can push through and make it to the end. This series has a lot of heartbreak in it, but I hope the positive changes in the characters because of it shines through for you in the end!
