Heidi | 2372 comments David just FYI I highly recommend Crazy Crazy by Han Nolan too. It also address mental illness but I was able to really connect with it more than Challenger Deep.

Thanks for posting. The cover for Taken is really striking, but I'd prefer to read something unique, as well.

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments I just finished All the Stars in the Sky (Until the End of the World, #3) by Sarah Lyons Fleming from the Until the World Ends series - so good! Post-apocalyptic zombies. Loved it.

Getting ready to start either The Heir (The Selection, #4) by Kiera Cass and/or The Pledge (The Pledge, #1) by Kimberly Derting I haven't decided which.

I finished The Heir (The Selection, #4) by Kiera Cass last night and loved it. It's my favorite of the series so far! I need the next book NOW!

Next up is Until the End of the World (Until the End of the World #1) by Sarah Lyons Fleming on ebook, Black City (Black City, #1) by Elizabeth Richards in hardback which is one of my PIFM books, and I'm still listening to The Moon Dwellers (The Dwellers, #1) by David Estes on audio!

Did you want to do a buddy read of Black City Karen? And are you joining in the buddy read for End of Days (Penryn and the End of Days, #3) by Susan Ee ?

I finished Ignite Me (Shatter Me, #3) by Tahereh Mafi and in the end, it was a pretty meh read. It was a quick read, thank goodness...but I have to say my fave book in that trilogy is still the first book. I LOVED the first book...the second was pretty good, and this one..I just didn't feel invested in it anymore. It also became more about the love triangle than anything else.

Really enjoying The Sound of Music Story How A Beguiling Young Novice, A Handsome Austrian Captain, and Ten Singing von Trapp Children Inspired the Most Beloved Film of All Time by Tom Santopietro and the audio of The Moon Dwellers (The Dwellers, #1) by David Estes !

Unfortunately I had to DNF Ignite Me for the same reasons you listed. I really didn't like Adam OR Warner at the point I said enough.

message 13069: by Ashley Marie (new)

Ashley Marie Started UnWholly (Unwind, #2) by Neal Shusterman two days ago and have since put every other book on hold until I finish it. Books like this really make me hate having to do anything other than read (ahem: work. sleep. etc.)

Otherwise, I'm partway through Challenger Deep by Neal Shusterman Black Dove, White Raven by Elizabeth Wein and really enjoying them both as well.

Also finishing the audio of The Alchemyst (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, #1) by Michael Scott this morning and then jumping into the second one. It's not *omg amazingggg*, but it's very good for what it is -- and being 26, I know I'm not the target audience. It's a good ride though.

Is The Heir (The Selection, #4) by Kiera Cass anything like the original series? I'm debating whether or not to pick this up cause I wasn't that into the original series....

The Curse of the Wendigo by Rick Yancey (Can I just say the new covers look weird?)

Yeah. Sadly this is the cover my copy comes in. I wasn't gonna be picky. XD; I prefer this one: The Curse of the Wendigo (The Monstrumologist, #2) by Rick Yancey But they didn't have this edition. I'm just happy I have it. It'll probably grow on me in time.
