Great review! Okay, I guess I must be the last person on earth to hear about Alexa Montgomery! I just went and bought her first book!

I just finished Unearthly! I read it but am now listening to

Nice review B. :-). I have not heard of Alexa Montgomery either, Jenny! Let me know what you think.

Jen, thank you, thank you, thank you! I was able to listen to
on my car stereo today because of your help! I was having to hold my Nook or phone in my lap just to hear my book before. Now with my new iPhone and your help, I was able to run errands and actually hear my book! WOOT, WOOT!

on audio! What is up with that? No audio for the first or third books, but one for the second? Crazy.

YAY! So glad you are loving it! I'm not surprised, though!

Well, that explains why I hadn't heard of it! LOL Now I don't feel quite so lame!

I didn't get a single page of reading done today :( Too busy working on my vlog! Tomorrow hopefully I get lots done!

Started today in "De Verrekijker" by Van Kooten, a Dutch we could get free by buying another book. It's a "boekenweek geschenk" which can be translated as a book week gift. Do you have something like that? We have a bookweek every year haha and well today we can travel by train if you have that book with you and I had to go to Amsterdam by train so I thought "let's give this a try"...

Just finished my re-read of
and I am loving it even more now. I am sad that I can't give it an extra star as I already gave it 5 stars the first time I read it.

I was disappointed by Divergent and Before I Fall. Looking for Alaska was ok but nowhere near my favorite John Green (Fault in Our Stars and Will Grayson Will Grayson have that honor :)
Just finished
last night. It was interesting. I kept expecting it to be paranormal, but it wasn't. Not sure how to describe it exactly. And it left a LOT of questions unanswered. Now I'm about half way through
and I'm shocked to say that I don't hate it. I'm really not into the fallen angel books, with very few exceptions (Unearthly, Angelfall). So it's surprising me how much I like this book...hope it ends well.
@ Bethany, I really liked Sweet Evil. Although I did like the first half better than the second half.

Re-reading? Is it that good or are you reading it for another reason?
Heidi (trust me) wrote: "I was disappointed by Divergent and Before I Fall.

I haven't read THG as yet would you believe that? Haha I just watched the film. xD

Its that good...but I'm also rereading it because its been a year since I've read it, and I want to read the sequel soon. Also a bunch of the group is doing a buddy read, so I thought I would read with them!

Well, I was going to join the buddy read of

and
. That should get me through to the end of the week and hopefully some painted kitchen cabinet doors. Every updated thing in this house has a book attached to it -

For sure. I've heard good things about Wonder. And Night School has the whole paranormal boarding school thing going on which is almost always something I like. So, I'm excited to read it. I'll let you how it all turns out ;)
