kynndra-jo (charlietanghoe) @Kaity; You reminded me I've read the Maximum Ride series - it's been so long! /frantically adds to read bookshelf/ brilliant, amazing stories. I'm sure you'll love them!

I will.
Beware though, my review will be all over the place in terms of emotion. *And don't take anything I say personally. lol"


I won't, and emotion is good!

Liz | 65 comments Picked up a book that looked interesting to me that I knew nothing about so : Never After by Dan Elconin


message 7160: by Lauren (new)

Lauren Stoolfire | 2047 comments I just finished My Basmati Bat Mitzvah by Paula J. Freedman which is a really winner and comes highly recommended from me. I think it could become a real multicultural classic.

Now reading Echoes by Danielle Steel - I never expected to say I would ever read anything by Danielle Steel, but this comes at the recommendation of a friend. A friend that like me never expected to read let alone actually like a novel by the author, so I'll see what I think.

kynndra-jo (charlietanghoe) Trying to decide between Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer or Daughter of Smoke & Bone (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #1) by Laini Taylor .

I'll read both - but which shall I read first? .__.


message 7162: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 957 comments I'd recommend Cinder. Haven't read DoS&B, so I can't compare them, but I really loved Cinder. Favorite of the year so far.

Hey Kynndra, there is a buddy read starting for Daughter of Smoke and Bone soon, so if you want, you can read Cinder now and join us for the buddy read. :)


Steph is: Pageturning578 (stephw1991) I am excited to be back after a long college school year! I am 45 minutes into my first day of summer and I am enjoying Panic by Lauren Oliver . I can't wait to reconnect with everyone in this group and knock some books off of my TBR list before my summer class starts in 3 weeks!

What are some popular YA books out right now? Suggestions are now then welcome!

oooooh both are excellent. As a whole, the Lunar chronicles are more fun and the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series is darker/grander. Whichever you're in the mood for :)


message 7168: by Colleen (new)

Colleen (cleowulf) The City of Bones Mortal Instruments, So far it's enjoyable for the simple factor the movie followed smoothly with the words from the novel.
