Lol sorry, I know, it's crazy right?

Finished Pandemonium (Delirium, #2) by Lauren Oliver , very predictable but I still loved it and Oliver's writing was extraordinary :)

Starting Dragon (Histories of Purga, #1) by Rustin Petrae for our very own, Rustin, for the Read to Review!! And I'm also starting Prodigy (Legend, #2) by Marie Lu the moment it gets delivered to my Kindle today!!

Oh yes, I predicted the cliffhanger for sure. But I love love love Oliver's writing (I've read all the books she's written).

True. That must be why I didn't roll my eyes through half of it like I do with a lot of YA paranormal books.

Caedy  Eries (karida) | 151 comments Daughter of Smoke & Bone (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #1) by Laini Taylor in hardback.

Schooled (Lexy Cooper Mystery #1) by Christa Charter in digital.

About half-way done with both. Being sick is providing me with lots of time to read as I've no energy to focus on anything else.

After only 2 hours sleep the other night, yesterday was not a good reading day for me! I just couldn't focus my brain! I did read 100 pages of Matched (Matched, #1) by Ally Condie for a reread!

I'm 30% in to Prodigy, not quite as good as Legend so far but the action is just ramping up so that might be about to change!


message 1070: by Bee (last edited Jan 29, 2013 04:11PM) (new)

Bee (justabluebee) I really love the blurb and all of it, but I can't get myself to read The Keeper of the Stones (Jake West, #1) by M.J. Webb further. Maybe it's because I'm just not in the mood for Fantasy. I'm going to put it on hold until I am. Now I'm going to read Pushing the Limits (Pushing the Limits, #1) by Katie McGarry again so that I can read Dare You To (Pushing the Limits, #2) by Katie McGarry . I think I mix PTL with other books, so that's why I'm reading it again lol. Not that I mind, it's a great book.

DeAnna (dee84812) | 671 comments I had to give up on the audiobook of Shatter Me (Shatter Me, #1) by Tahereh Mafi , but I got it from the library and will read it when I finish my current book.

I tried to read the book and just could not get into it myself. But, hopefully, if you try it again, you will be able to finish it. :-)


message 1082: by DeAnna (new)

DeAnna (dee84812) | 671 comments I didn't hate it, but because of the strikeouts in the book, it made the audiobook a little weird. A lot of my blogger friends loved it, so I'm hoping I do, too. I know things don't always work out that way, though!


message 1083: by Ruby (new)

Ruby Black (ruby_black) @Heidi @Beatrice @Contessa I know right, such a great book; just wish she was doing another sequel to Easy.

I totally took up kickboxing b/c of that book!!

Slow and boring. That's why I decided to put it down for now.


message 1092: by Bee (new)

Bee (justabluebee) I'm reading Fifty Shades of Grey (Fifty Shades, #1) by E.L. James . Yeah, I am in need of some Christian Grey. Sigh.
To the ones that hate these books: Shut up, don't you dare judging me. A girl has the right to have a guilty pleasure.
It's better than Twilight. Why would you choose an annoying, stupid girl and a boring, stiff and controlling wannabe vampire over Christian Grey. I mean, seriously. xD

Amy (DemonKittie) (demonkittie) An Island Like You Stories of the Barrio by Judith Ortiz Cofer It's for a challenge. I am having some trouble with reading as I was just diagnosed with verigo. So far it is not getting much better. :(

Bieke, we are all entitled to our opinion and to what we like or dislike. Whether it's Twilight or 50 shades...Or any other book. There are books I see people have loved and that I strongly disliked or flat out hated! I've just learned to agree to disagree and move on...And there are a lot of people who loved 50 Shades...Just maybe not the people you talk to didnt like the book.

She'd say a sentence, then you'd hear a scratching noise (like a pen on paper) and then she'd continue. The problem was, after looking at the sample, I couldn't tell if she was striking out one word, one sentence, or more!

I know, same here, but I often see people reading books although they know they don't like it, just to write a negative review on it. And some people actually judge people by the books they like. xD I just said that as a joke lol. I like (a lot, but not love) the Twilight books and others that some people really hate (like the House of Night series, those are my favorite lol). Too bad they don't like them, but I can't change someones opinion. :)

I read FSoG and didn't like it. But I didn't read it just to shoot it down. I think it'd be much more unfair to rate it 1-star/badmouth it *without* having read it first. (TBH, I suspected I wouldn't like it. But I still wanted to give it a chance no matter what. I did the same with Twilight, Uglies, and some others.)
