What are you reading right now?
I really need something funny to read. I'm taking a medical leave from school and i'm struggling with depression on a daily basis… I want my love of reading back…suggestions welcome!
@Stephanie try a light read like Anna & The French Kiss, Lola & The Boy Next Door, Let It Snow, or My True Love Gave To Me. I can totally relate to how you are feeling as I myself have struggled w deep depression & anxiety for 10+ years. I hope things get better for you! Friend me & if you ever need to talk feel free to message me!
Right now I am currently reading
for my buddy read with @Jenny and @Karen and I'm loving it!!!!! I'm also reading
and well....let's just say this book is SO not my genre I'm used to reading and I may have to force myself to read the rest of it. I'm reading it for my work book club.
Weird. I am listening to The Husband's Secret on audio right now. I love the narrators Aussie accent so maybe it helps to have the audio in this particular case. I can listen to Aussie narrators all day long.

I also love all books by Sarah Addison Allen- her books make me happy too.
My weekend was this in a nut shell:"I'm sick... Alright time to read a ton!"
*Two really REALLY crappy days pass, NOTHING BESIDES FANFICTS GET READ!*
"
...Oh yeah.. I was supposed to read this weekend..."
I'm on page one of Clockwork Angel....And page 2 of City of Bones... That was as far as I could get without coughing my brains out

I'm reading Mr. Penumbra's 24 hour bookstore, and it's really funny, quirky, and basically a love letter to books and bookstores. I'm loving it, and I hope it helps you love reading again!

I'm not sure all the members are aware of our Buddy Reads program. Buddy Reads are SO FUN, you get to read books with friends, and we keep things very relaxed. You read at your own pace, and share your thoughts with others!
Here's the thread where members decide what they want to read. There are a few members right now that have a few books they want to read!

I'm gonna try that out, I need motivation to get some of these read. A buddy read might be just the ticket

I started The Winner's Curse last night for my buddy read. But fell asleep after the first chapter. Ha! I really wanted to stay awake for this one but was so tired. That first chapter sucked me in right away!

Will do! I am not enjoying it as much as the first one.
Because I really needed to add to my "currently reading" list I started
,
and
this week. I am reading one story from "My True Love Gave to Me" every night leading up to Christmas. So I read Rainbow Rowell's last night and it was adorable, as expected.

I don't know. So far its okay, just not my favorite.

I hope you find it though!

I'll be reading this next. I CAN'T BELIEVE MY LIBRARY ACTUALLY LISTENED TO ME! I was browsing and they added very recently Love Letters to the Dead, The Mara Dyer Trilogy (I have holds on both now) and now THIS which is on my kindle. I said I was gonna wait til March when the Shadow Cabinet came out... SCREW DAT!
Rfuentes (gryffindor_girl75) wrote: "@Genni The Winner's Curse is SO good!!!!!"I know!! I don't think I'll be able to make it to when Winner's Crime will come out! I'm practically dying in anticipation!
Just finished
five minutes ago so I have no idea what to do next!
@Genni I will have to buy The Winner's Crime when it comes out!! Have you read The Darkest Minds or The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer? Both are great books & are book 1 in each trilogy! Another one I want to read is The Gemstone!
Yes I am too! Especially because I've heard it's supposed to be even better than The Winner's Curse.
My boyfriend just finished Allegiant what should he read next? He sent me on a mission to find him another book before tomorrow! I am starting My True Love Gave to Me soon!!
I'm reading
and
Because AE is an ebook, and I have it everywhere I go, I'm getting through it faster than SAS, a paperback that I only read when I'm on the treadmill! lol
Enjoying both!

I'm not that far into it and already hooked. Love these types of books. And after coming off a not so great book I'm very excited.
