I just started skin game by Jim Butcher

[Alison]

@daniel, OK I am super excited to read PJ now! seriously! if u love it I'm sure I will too

[Daniel]

Alison, you'll love it.
Percy Jackson is one of the best fictional characters ever penned by an author. No joke.

You'll definitely love it. My only wish is that the movies would've followed the books more and had a run closer to how Harry Potter did.
Don't get me wrong, I really liked the movies, but would've really loved 5(or 6 following the last book = 2 movies trend) coming out over 6 or 7 years.

[Harlee]

Oh, I hated the first Percy Jackson movie! I couldn't even bring myself to watch the second one. (Although the reason I actually read this series is because I first saw the movie trailer and thought the book sounded good, so, ironically, thanks to the movie, I discovered the books lol) There was just so much wrong with it I couldn't focus on what was right!

[Tommy]

I thought the second was better than the first, but if you didn't like the first I couldn't in good faith say I think you'd like it haha.

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Finished reading last night and I LOVED it! its a modern day retelling of the Great Gatsby with teenagers. It loosely followed the same story line, but the ending was different. Actually, though, the ending was the weakest part of the book IMO. But I was totally absorbed, great writing and a quick read!

Today starting

[Heidi]

Loved I Am The Messenger! It was excellent on audiobook too!

[Jen]

I'm not sure if I'm in some kind of slump or not. Maybe it's just too many things at once and I'm not thrilled about any of them?
Currently listening to but I don't love it - I'd like to DNF it but not going to because a BookTuber friend recommended it. Meh.

In print (as in actual books ) I'm also reading slowly at night, a couple of chapters at a time and I'm halfway thru it. Meh.
Also reading but don't feel like I can concentrate on it, even tho it's fairly good. And reading on my iPad (it's an ARC) and I really like it but keep having to put it down, which is frustrating.

And I'm doing a buddy read of with another BookTube friend. And it's good - I've started reading that in print. Although gah - get in line, Wintergirls! I need to have that done by June 14, and then there's another ARC I need to finish before June 17.

Bleah. It's like this great buffet of delicious food and all I want is junk. I feel like stuffing myself full of NA contemporary until I'm ready to throw up.

I just need something that is really good. I want to get to but it's been awhile since I read the previous two books and I don't want to re-read them. I also have these that I want to get to relatively soon -


Ugh. Too many choices. Anyone have any ideas on what next?

[Katelyn]

@Jen- I loved Frankenstein and Wintergirls! :) I have the same problem with Into The Still Blue, it just stares at me from my bookshelf but I don't really remember what happened in the first two books.

[Jen]

I really like Frankenstein as well - it's nothing like the movies. Victor Frankenstein is a real piece of work and that poor monster! I'm only about halfway thru but I'm already biased. At this point I think Victor only deserves what he's getting. He's a cowardly, spoiled, self-indulgent idiot that needs to get over himself and man up.

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Okay, Into the Still Blue is AWESOME! I had actually kind of forgotten, too, but try reading it--it came back to me after about 50 pages. The way the book starts, its easy to get back into the world.

Other than thatI am reading Cruel Beauty right now, and I'm thinking with your current mood, Jen, you might want to skip it for now...unless you just want to listen to a really cool narrator, she has an awesome voice! I think I'm enjoying this more as audio than I would as print.

Out of the rest of those, I've read Halo, which I really liked. I've read the whole trilogy, and while the first two books were fun and enjoyable, the last book kind of disappointed me. It wasn't bad, but just not great. You know.

I also read What's Left of Me, but that might be a little heavy for you right now...I loved it, and the sequel too :)

[Daniel]

Just finished the PJ series- wow.
(view spoiler)[ PERCABETH HAPPENED!!! THAT SHIP SAILED!!! EEEEPPPPPP!!!!! (hide spoiler)]
I will be starting the HoO series during the summer.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

AWESOME! You flew through it :)

[Daniel]

David wrote: "AWESOME! You flew through it :)"

Yup. I don't want to say good-bye to the characters, and the good thing is that I get to see some of them again in the next series! (Percy and Annabeth in particular)

[Harlee]

I'm so happy you liked the series, Daniel! :)

[Daniel]

I'm happy too.
The one thing I was missing was- I wanted Percy to say I love you to Annabeth. lol

[Harlee]

Patience... :)

[Daniel]

Does the HoO series start right after the end of PJ?

[Jeann (Happy Indulgence)]

I got approved for on Netgalley so I just picked that one up.

[Harlee]

It think it picks up a few weeks or a month after that point, but pretty much, yeah.

[Daniel]
