Sherrie | 1212 comments Just finished listening to Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne and it was amazing! I expected to like it but I LOVED it. The writing was good and the narrator was excellent. If you like audio books you have to check this one out.

So stayed up late last night reading Pivot Point (Pivot Point, #1) by Kasie West , which I finished and LOVED, and then started The Sun Dwellers (The Dwellers #3) by David Estes which I finished today and LOVED as well! Both 5 star reads! What a fantastic reading day!

Also finally finished my audiobook of Odd Thomas (Odd Thomas, #1) by Dean Koontz (reread) and bawled at the end like I usually do! Love that book so much!

Started listening to Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson which I am enjoying so far, and trying to decide what book is next off of my pile?

You guys decide for me! I have The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater The Throne of Fire (Kane Chronicles, #2) by Rick Riordan (reread) Dreamland  by Sarah Dessen Kiss of Frost (Mythos Academy, #2) by Jennifer Estep Last Sacrifice (Vampire Academy, #6) by Richelle Mead The Twitter Diaries 2 Cities, 1 Friendship, 140 Characters by Georgie Thompson World War Z An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks Sever (The Chemical Garden, #3) by Lauren DeStefano

Absolutely. I am going to prioritize at least The Star Dwellers for this month. My goal is to finish the whole series (Dwellers & Country) by the end of the year!

Read Scorpio Races, it's awesome =) I'm going to be re-reading it soon, if I don't pick up any more books from the library :P


message 4167: by Hazel (new)

Hazel West | 70 comments I just finished reading In the Shadow of Blackbirds by Cat Winters (4 stars) it's one of the few mysteries I've read in a long time that totally threw me. Now I'm reading Song For A Dark Queen by Rosemary Sutcliff which is AMAZING so far, and I'm going to start Joe Rat by Mark Barratt soon.

Okay, there are 2 votes for The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater , so I'm going with that, and then I'll read Kiss of Frost (Mythos Academy, #2) by Jennifer Estep and then Last Sacrifice (Vampire Academy, #6) by Richelle Mead ! Thanks, guys!

I saw that a few months ago! So is the Scorpio Races, and several more I think!

I follow it all on Movie Pilot. Great place to go to check out movie news, and they even have a section for books to movies!

I have read the entire series. I liked them. I was thoroughly confused though and the last book was nice as it tied everything together.

I loved Beautiful Disaster-that was my introduction to the NA genre. :)


message 4196: by Kritika (new)

Kritika (spidersilksnowflakes) Would you recommend NA to someone who isn't a big fan of romance? It seems like most NA books are about "steamy romances", which I usually avoid like the plague haha
Slammed looks interesting though!

I haven't read a lot of NA (Okay, I've read 1), but I really liked
Ten Tiny Breaths. There was definitely romance in it, but I didn't feel like it was the main topic of the book.
