Scarlet is amazing! I can't put it down. :) And The Human is also pretty good. I'm not very far though.
Right now I'm reading
by Patricia C Wrede. Just found some of her books I had never heard of before at the library so I've been enjoying reading her again. I'm also reading
which isn't YA but it's still a really enjoyable series ;)

Scarlet is..."
Oh yeah! I'm currently reading scarlet too! It's really good!
Reading 4 different books at the moment.
Well, 5 if you count Game of Thrones. 1 is for a blog tour, the other 3 are buddy reads.

Ooh the pressures on! Hope you like it as much as we did! The plot thickens a lot in the second book too :)

All of us in the buddy reads really liked that series, Heidi! I think we all rated Fragments a 5. ;)

Currently I am reading:
- long and want to finish it before the mini-series airs later this month.
- Just about done with this one, I like it, though it isn't my favorite that I've read by him (which puts this at #2).
- Haven't read this since high school, and currently just about done with it. Pretty much read it in a night after finishing Inferno by Dan Brown, which was OMG amazing.Currently on hold-digitally from the library are:
The Ask and the Answer
The Kill Order
The Divergent Series 2-Book Collection - I've read Divergent, but will re-read it and then read Insurgent.
Just checked out from the library:
The Giver - Finishing what I've got ahead of this one first.
The Magdalene Cipher - Title looked interesting, will see how it goes here in a day or so.
...just started it. It's starting off a bit slow. I'm sure it will get better. It sounds like it will be a good book.

I really liked Under the Dome and I'm looking forward to the mini-series!
Glad to hear you liked Inferno. It's sitting on my bed to read soon. You have quite a few in your list that I enjoyed!

..."I absoulty LOVE Sarah Dessen I think you will enjoy along for the ride! She also has a new book coming out this week
Last night I finished listening to Twilight - Stephenie Meyer. Next Sunday I am gonna listen to New Moon - Stephenie Meyer. Now I am going back to Death Bringer - Derek Landy.
My daughters and I just finished Fire Country and Ice Country and just bought them Broken Wings Hidden Wings 2 because it one of 9 series we have going and was $3.99 on Amazon.

So far I do like Along for the Ride. It was kind of a slow start, but its taking off now. This is my first time reading Sarah Dressen.

LOL, Heidi! I'm liking it so far, I'm hooked actually off of the drama between the girl's parents and her stepmother. This girl has some of the most selfish, pompous, jerk-faced parents I've ever read!
Sherrie, let us know your thoughts on Feedback when you're done. David and I recently read Variant and loved it, but then we saw less then stellar reviews for Feedback and were unsure if we wanted to read it or not!
Jenny wrote: "LOL, Heidi! I'm liking it so far, I'm hooked actually off of the drama between the girl's parents and her stepmother. This girl has some of the most selfish, pompous, jerk-faced parents I've ever..."I think the main reason why I like Dessen's books so much is because I read all of them during my middle school years when I was awkward and going through some crazy stuff! Her characters where my first book boyfriends and I didn't feel so alone in the world. I actually didn't care for her last book
but I'm still going to give her new book a chance!
Sarah Dessen is kinda hit or miss for me...see, I really liked What happened to Goodbye. But, then I read This Lullaby and was like, Meh...I'll probably read more in the future just to try em out.

I gave up after
. I need a bit more bite to my fiction than she offers.

She reminds me a Nicholas Sparks for young adults and I hate Nicholas Sparks (well except someone doesn't have to die in her books! hahahaha)
I finished Gameboard of the Gods, Origins: The Fire, and my audio of Daughter of Smoke & Bone. Now I'm reading Mila 2.0 and unsure of my next audio.
Everyone is entitled to there opinions about what books they like or don't like. I may not like reading the same books that I read in middle school if I read them today. I used to get offended when it came to things like this but I like to be openminded when I read books and have discussions with others.
I hope your comment wasn't directed to my ranting Stephanie! I am truly harmless and never mean any offense! As David and Karen will tell you if I love something I am fierce about it but it takes a lot for me to love something :)
Heidi (Seriously. Trust me.) wrote: "I hope your comment wasn't directed to my ranting Stephanie! I am truly harmless and never mean any offense!

I wasn't directing it at anyone I think everyone has a right to their opinions thats something that Goodreads has taught me.
Heidi (Seriously. Trust me.) wrote: "Sherrie wrote: "Still reading

Yes very much so Stephanie! I've been on here Goodreads for 4 years now so I sometimes forget not everyone is used to me ranting :)
Jenny wrote: "Sherrie, let us know your thoughts on Feedback when you're done.

So far, I'm not liking it quite as much as Variant but I'm hoping it will get better. Stay tuned. :o)
