I'm still reading
. This book is 160 pages, so I should have been able to read it in one day, but it's slow-going. Actually, for as excited as I was for this novella, I'm feeling a bit disappointed.
I'm reading
as a R&R, and I'm loving it! Should finish it this morning.
After that is
for a blog tour next week

hahaha :) I thought the same thing about the ride but that is because I went there a few months ago and there were 10,000 screaming children in the area. I have said ever since I left that Magic Kingdom is really expensive birth control!!!

I'm attempting (YET AGAIN) to listen to an audio book. I'm definitely having an easier time, but I still don't like it. How the hell am I supposed to get any kind a connection with the male love interest when his voice is read by a woman, imitating a man's voice. It really throws me off. Like, I totally can't picture a cute guy...because he sounds like a woman. Anyway, this is what I'm listening to.
Bethany I am a huge audiofile so I would love to recommend audiobooks I love. Some books are worse on audio, some are just ok, but sometimes you get a fantastic audiobook that makes a book even better.

I was actually disappointed in the ending. Not what I expected at all.Kind of flat. I thought for sure it would go out with a bang. Made me lower my rating :(

I loved What's Left of Me! But I actually read the book.

Good idea! So many of my series I need to catch up on...I've been rereading the Fallen series by Lauren Kate so I can finally read Rapture. Also rereading the Hush, Hush series because I finally got Finale to read! And I want to reread Shatter Me before I read Unravel Me...THERE JUST ISN'T ENOUGH TIME IN THE DAY!!

Oh I know! I probably shouldn't be complaining, I could have the opposite problem--no books to read! lol
I think I mentioned that I'm in the middle of reading
For those of you who liked it and are anticipating the next book, I thought I should mention that
is available on Netgalley. I just got approved for it so...yeah. FYI.
Bethany, I bought The Immortal Rules, but I haven't read it yet. I'm curious to see what you think of it!Ginny, I just finished The Indigo Spell. The series is pretty good, but I still like Vampire Academy better. Have you read that series?
Ginny- I agree with DeAnna. I enjoy bloodlines, but it pales in comparison to Vampire Academy. DeAnna- I'm honestly having a hard time staying interested in The Immortal Rules. It's just not that exciting or interesting to me right now, but I'm gonna try and push through and hopefully it will get better.

So... I'm between books right now. Can't decide what to read next. These are the books on my Nook right now:
Any recommends? Someone want to pick one for me? ;-D

Living in the Dark is a good quick read, a day and a half tops for you :) But you need to read Gone soon too so we can do a buddy read of the sequel ;)
In that case, I'll go with BOTH books! ;) I'll start them both tonight and see which one I gravitate to first. Hehehhe...

My vote is for Gone because I bought it but don't remember what it's even about, so I'll be looking forward to your thoughts. :)
i'm reading beautiful demons :-) well actually I just started the 3rd book called bitter demons. I am really enjoying them and theres heaps more in the series to read! yay!
Karen wrote: "
it is! I'm 15% in and hooked!"I liked Gone and read book two but after that I was like there is no way I can invest myself for six books in this series so I gave up.
