It's pretty good! It's about Bonnie and Clyde's spirits possessing two modern day teens. I'm really enjoying the historical aspects of the book.

Heather (hersecretsmile) | 290 comments I'm reading Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge right now. It's really good but it's also definitely a different, darker take on Beauty & the Beast.

It stays that way the entire time. I can say a lot against Alan Moore, but, man, he is a phenomenal writer.

Finally reading The Shadow Throne (The Ascendance Trilogy, #3) by Jennifer A. Nielsen and also reading Tempting Fate (Immortal Descendants, #2) by April White by the amazingly talented Indie author (and one of our group members) April White! If you haven't tried her series, which starts with Marking Time (The Immortal Descendants, #1) by April White , I highly recommend it!

Is this your first read of HP?? I highly recommend this series on audiobook to everyone - it was one of the reasons I feel in love with audiobooks. I know people are going to throw things about me for saying this but I could not get into Percy Jackson like I did HP. It was too middle gradeish for me - granted I only read the first one so the books could have matured as they went along.

I'm not too big on audiobooks, but I really want to listen to the Harry Potter ones read by Stephen Fry.

Regarding Percy Jackson: They mature as they go, but not the same extent as Harry Potter did, IMO. I absolutely loved the series, but I think you have to be in right mood for it. It's light, fun, fast paced adventure with laughs and mythology smacking you in the face throughout haha.
To be clear though, the first book was my least favorite of the five.

Thanks for the thoughts on TP Tommy. p.s. I have only listened to the Jim Dale Harry Potter audiobooks (I own them actually) but would love to hear Stephen's version if they only offered here in the States!

Aaaaaah the end of Well of Ascension is mindblowing. It's my least favorite of the trilogy but still amazing!

That will be a huge switch Shauna but the Maze Runner is awesome.

message 8598: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 957 comments I just finished The Ghost and the Goth (The Ghost and the Goth, #1) by Stacey Kade and ended up liking it more than I would've thought, especially from the meh start.

Not sure what to read next, but when I decide, I'll update. I think Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy, #1) by Richelle Mead is the front runner at the moment.

I'm in the majority haha. I loved it. The sequels I could take or leave, though.
