I LOVE HP. Always have, always will. Its been awhile since I've reread them, but I've reread them multiple times. They are my favorite rereads. There is so much depth, and I pick up on little things I missed every time I read them! I'm also going to have to get the new illustrated book :)

I think my goal for 2016 is going to be to re-read the series (well re-listen to it since I have them all on audio).

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 4472 comments I can never get too much of Harry Potter, and you guys are making me want to re-read it again... I'm going to have to re-read them when we finally get around to getting the new shelves so I can get my audiobooks unpacked...

I feel like I'm dreaming Harry Potter right now. It's always in the back of my mind. ;) It's killing me to take this slow. hehehehh...

Oh, and as long as the books are all different genres, then I'm pretty good. It depends which mood I'm in on which book I'll pick up.

Tracy | 51 comments I haven't posted here in awhile but I'm currently reading Paladin by Sally Slater and it's great so far! Sort of a Mulan-type story but with demons and demon slayers.

Lauren B (saussage1994) | 19 comments I finished The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins this morning, then read Username Evie by Joe Sugg this afternoon and started Dumplin' by Julie Murphy this evening.

It's a good day for reading! And all totally different from each other.

Kitlina | 49 comments just finished Warriors (The Reverians, #3) by Sarah Noffke and I've also read the first two books in the series Defects (The Reverians, #1) by Sarah Noffke and Rebels (The Reverians, #2) by Sarah Noffke , these are amazing books that need to be read. go and give them a chance. I really loved them

Finished The Heir (The Selection, #4) by Kiera Cass 4 stars. I actually liked this one much better than the first 3. Something about this MC...really makes it fascinating. Maxon was too perfect IMO, and America was sometimes an idiot. I really like Eadalyn, even though she's a spoiled brat. I also see her viewpoint,and I love that she realizes just how ridiculous the whole Selection is!

Next up is A Cold Legacy (The Madman's Daughter, #3) by Megan Shepherd


message 15065: by [deleted user] (new)

just finished Born of Illusion (Born of Illusion, #1) by Teri Brown ehh a pretty meeh book.

starting The Red Necklace (French Revolution, #1) by Sally Gardner now.

It is just one of those books in its own league :)


message 15073: by Caitlin (new)

Caitlin (caitlinsiem) | 409 comments Just finished Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae Carson. Really enjoyed this one. An interesting western tale. It's a bit of a subtle thing (for me at least) but I was satisfied with it when I reached the end and definitely will be reading the next book. Think of it as the old game Oregon Trail meets a touch of magic. :)

Now starting Vicious by V.E. Schwab.

Laying in bed, I've been napping and reading all day so far! Home sick today :( Finished Reawakened (Reawakened, #1) by Colleen Houck and I really liked it! Really good Eyptian Mythology/Adventure story.

I'm still reading A Cold Legacy (The Madman's Daughter, #3) by Megan Shepherd which is good so far, but I'm having a tough time getting into it. Going to start the audio of The Martian by Andy Weir as well as Time Between Us (Time Between Us, #1) by Tamara Ireland Stone in ebook.

It's great! I'm still not sure if I like it as much as the first book, but it is very cool and creepy. :) There's some kinda stupid love-triangle-y stuff happening which is a bit annoying, but otherwise I'm enjoying it a lot.

OK, cool, thanks :) I'll just cringe through the love-triangle stuff.

I Finished The Rose Society (The Young Elites #2) by Marie Lu

Just After I Got The Book, Days Later. The Bookstore Pulled it from The Shelves, Because It's NOT Supposed to Come Out Until the 13th


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments I started The Monstrumologist (The Monstrumologist, #1) by Rick Yancey today! I'm considering starting Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling so I don't get behind on my read-a-log but I'm really wanting to continue with Heir of Fire (Throne of Glass, #3) by Sarah J. Maas after finishing The Assassin's Blade last night! I cannot read three books at once! What should I do?


message 15091: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
Rose, I'd concentrate on The Monstrumologist, just because its perfect for Halloween time :) And maybe just read a chapter or two of HP every few days or so.


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments @Jenny I'm loving The Monstrumologist so far!! Good idea!


message 15093: by Harlee (new)

Harlee | 1583 comments Yay Rose! So glad you are liking The Monstrumologist. And I definitely agree with Jenny, it's a perfect Halloween read! :)

Well I finally got into A Cold Legacy (The Madman's Daughter, #3) by Megan Shepherd And actually I liked it best out of the trilogy! Very,very creepy read, I think even more so than the first two.
