Okay I'm back home with all my books. Did you finish this one David? Thoughts?

Okay, so I will be starting Graduation Day (The Testing, #3) by Joelle Charbonneau hopefully soon--I have some library books that need to get read first though!

I will probably start reading City of Heavenly Fire (The Mortal Instruments, #6) by Cassandra Clare on Friday. I have to get it read, and its due back at the library on Tuesday. I won't be able to renew it, but there is a long hold list for it. And its 725 pages, so I must start it soon! Just throwing it out there, if anyone wants to buddy read it, let me know!

Well...actually...no. It was a DNF for me, I returned it and the sequel to the library. I made it 120 pages and it couldn't keep my attention. The romance was really predictable and the story was way too slow for me. Others will probably like it though!


message 1061: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
Ah okay, good to know David! I'll wait awhile to read it then, I have other books I'd rather read instead :)

Did you pick anything new up at the library?


message 1062: by David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;) (new)

David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 10717 comments Mod
Yep, I got the 3rd and 4th books in the Life As We Knew It series, which I already finished...and I also got the 2nd and 3rd books in the Wither series by Lauren DeStefano. I'm currently reading the 2nd one, Fever and it's pretty good so far :)


message 1063: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
I really liked Fever, I actually liked it better than Wither, because we get to see more of this really crazy world! I still haven't read Sever, so I can read it with you if you want :)

OK awesome, I'm enjoying it so far, there's something about her writing that I really like. I'd love to read Sever with you!

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments David, Jenny, or any other members, let me know whenever you want to do a Everlost (Skinjacker, #1) by Neal Shusterman buddy read! And no rush!

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
I checked my library, and they only have it in audio through Wilbor--so I borrowed it for now, I think I'll try to also get a used copy from Amazon, so that may take a week to arrive. But I can start anytime with the audio.

David and I are in a buddy read right now, and he's also reading another series, so I'm guessing he might want to wait till next week. I'd kind of prefer that too, because I'm not sure how good the audio will be. So maybe next Thursday?

I can get a copy by then! :)

Edit: I also just got it on audio so I'll start in the next day or so since it takes me longer on audio. I may just buy it though.


message 1076: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments Next Thursday will be fine.
I'll try to finish up The 5th Wave by then. (on page 6 right now. Ha!)

OK sounds good for Everlost! I'll check again at the library this weekend :)

Tia Jenkins (tia_jenkins) | 207 comments Everlost is a fantastic book ^.^ hope you guys enjoy it

Thanks Tia! That's good to hear :)


message 1080: by Daniel (last edited Sep 02, 2014 07:59PM) (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments If someone could set up the buddy read for Everlost, that'd be great. Even if some of the readers are a bit late to the party, I have to start soon, as it's due in a week and a half or so.


message 1081: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments I just posted the buddy read for Everlost, hope I did it correctly! lol

I haven't bought it yet Tanya, watching my pennies right now!

Okay everyone, I have a list of books I'd like to read in October, and was wondering if anyone wanted to join me in buddy reads for any of them. I don't have to read these all, they are just on my TBR.

David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 10717 comments Mod
I'd read Feed with you, that's been on my Kindle for a while. I've got three library books ahead of it though, mind waiting a week and a half or two weeks?


message 1091: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
YAY! No that's totally fine, we can wait a little bit :) Let me know when you are ready!

David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 10717 comments Mod
OK cool :) As soon as I finish my three library books, I'm game!


message 1093: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments So I have these books coming up next:
BZRK (BZRK, #1) by Michael Grant In the Afterlight (The Darkest Minds, #3) by Alexandra Bracken Undivided (Unwind, #4) by Neal Shusterman City of Lost Souls (The Mortal Instruments, #5) by Cassandra Clare .
Any buddy readers?


message 1094: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
I'll join you for In the After Light, after I get my copy. I will be buying it when it comes out :)


message 1095: by Alison (new)

Alison Morquecho (thebookishcamper) | 787 comments I would love to do in the after light, but it may be a.few weeks till I can get to.it. gotta finish dreams of gods and monsters and then I want to reread the darkest minds


message 1096: by Karen’s Library (new)

Karen’s Library | 11320 comments Mod
I'm starting Unsouled on audio and will want to jump into Undivided next! I'll be reading it in print rather than audio. Maybe in a week (or less)?


message 1097: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments Ok.
For all interested in In the Afterlight (The Darkest Minds, #3) by Alexandra Bracken , we can maybe start in early-mid November, a couple of weeks after it is out.
Undivided (Unwind, #4) by Neal Shusterman is coming into my library late next week, so maybe we can start around 10-14 days from now. Does that sound good?


message 1098: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
That sounds great for In the Afterlight!


message 1099: by Divya (new)

Divya I feel like the only person in the world to not have read the Darkest Minds series. Enjoy the buddy read, guys :)
