Oh I read that one! It's really good. Starting my ARC of the sequel soon. =)
I've kept The Host on hold for now. Starting Beautiful Disaster now.
I'm reading
, and so far it's... enh. Not bad, but not great, and it has a bad case of the insta-love. After seeing the intriguing premise, I expected more. But maybe it's just slow to get going. I went and looked at a few of the Goodreads reviews just now though, and it doesn't look promising :/

I've just completed first chapter. I was looking forward to read a light read after reading way too emotional books. It sounds about right.

I've been a total HP kick lately, but rather than start the series again (which I will be doing soon), I'm currently reading The Hogwarts Saga as Ring Composition and Ring Cycle. It's actually pretty interesting. Well, some parts are super boring, but overall, it's pretty interesting. lol

Hehe will do :) It's an interesting and unique start. Not necessarily good or bad, just interesting :)
I am currently reading delirium
But I'm finding it a bit slow As anyone Else ever had this trouble with this book
Mod
, it is a really good dystopian, and the MC is amazing! It really is a quick read, but I've just been busy. I'm 67% of the way in, hope I continue to love it! As far as I can tell, this one deserves the hype! Much better than the 5th Wave, or maybe its just because I love the MC a LOT more!
Natalie wrote: "I am currently reading delirium But I'm finding it a bit slow As anyone Else ever had this trouble with this book"It's definitely a slower paced dystopian. I loved them though.
Just finished
and enjoyed it and just started
, been in my to-read for a while and finally getting around to it.
Mod
But I'm finding it a bit slow As anyone Else ever had this trouble with this book"Nope, I loved it! It is slower paced, and more romance is highlighted than the dystopian element, until the end. The next 2 books in the series are almost constant action, though, and they moved really fast!
I might have to Give it another go After I finished reading gone Series
Mod
But I'm finding it a bit slow As anyone Else ever had this trouble with this book"Yeah a bit slow for a dystopian but faster than Matched. The series definitely speeds up along the way though :)

"I really need to read this one! Enjoy!

My girls insisted that I read Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, even though I wasn't planning on it. So since we're trapped in a car for a 10-hr drive, they decided to read it to me. BEST AUDIOBOOK EVER. Live with all the voices.
Mod
Unfortunately Jenny your audio version won't be nearly as good as mine - since mine is the live voices of my children (who apparently should look into employment as voice actors!). I suppose I have a biased opinion, though. Lol
I was loosing my mind in a roadtrip today, so I started
So far looks good :D lol Plus, I have a deadline to make the review xD
Just read The Garden by Chaz Brenchley. Quite creepy and atmospheric. Recommended!
Mod
That's okay, that's what mothers are for! lol

Gaiman in general or this particular book? In general I like him -his stories are very creepy-- he is like the Stephen King for the YA set. I like The Ocean at the End of the Lane a lot - I am nearly done and have enjoyed it so far. Gaiman narrates most of his books himself (he narrates The Ocean) and he is a wonderful narrator (which is rare)

I like Gaiman to. I listened to The Anansi Boys and The Graveyard Book, loved them both. He has that quirky sense of humor.
If you liked Graveyard Book you will really like this one I think Tracy. He is so talented!
