Teresa I don't think I've ever juggled reading so many books at one time but I'm currently reading The Giver (The Giver, #1) by Lois Lowry , Love Me Forever by Jina Bacarr and Truly Madly Deeply Volumes 1-4 by Brenda Pandos . I actually like switching back and forth because they're all so different. I'm enjoying all of them so far.

It was really good! I'm super sad though because it doesn't come out til early next year which means I have to wait even longer for the next on. PS. If you use Netgalley, I think it's still available for request!

I finished reading The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency #1) by Alexander McCall Smith which I enjoyed way more than I though I would, and The Stars Never Rise (The Stars Never Rise #1) by Rachel Vincent which was pretty good. Lots of action, quick read.

Rebecca McCray (RebPai) | 195 comments Apologies for being a little "off radar". Life is hectic sometimes.

Just finished The Distant Sound of Violence by Jason Greensides by Jason Greensides. Loved this book... about consequences. It's not flash or overdone, just a great story.

That is one I have been dying to get my hands on, my local library doesn't have it and I don't have the extra $$ to buy any books at this point.


message 15041: by Gina (new)

Gina It was recommended by the Youth Librarian at my local library and I'm glad I listened. Maybe you and a friend could each pay half?!

No friends local to help me with my book addiction. Not at my local library in print or through Overdrive, though might make a recommendation for them to get it since it is one I've been dying to get my hands on.

I'm so freaking addicted to the Harry Potter books! I'm now rereading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling and I have to force myself to "step away from the book, Karen", or I'd binge read all night and I'm really trying to drag out books 3 and 4 for October. Rose, what did you get me into?? ;) #littlebookowlshpreadalong is a huge success! At least for me! I'm so happy I decided to join the HP readalong!!

This weekend I plan to go to Barnes and Noble and buy the new illustrated book with some of my bday gift cards! At least, I hope it's available now!

I have way too many books going right now. Yikes!!

Reading The Jewel (The Lone City, #1) by Amy Ewing Bits & Pieces (Benny Imura, #5) by Jonathan Maberry Outage (Powerless Nation, #1) by Ellisa Barr Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling and just had to pick up the new eARC of Sleeping Giants (Themis Files, #1) by Sylvain Neuvel ! All are pretty different genres too!

(Thanks Skylee, for the tip on Sleeping Giants!! I'm completely intrigued !)
