Across the universe by beth revis. The overall plot was DECENT, but there were some really inapproprite topics/scenes.
Mod
I'm sorry! like I said, the PLOT is decent......

I bought this book called Evermore by Alyson Noel. It was ok. Couldn't get into it. The storyline is ok, kinda predictable.
Um... I decided to read The Lovely Bones coz I heard it was interesting and different and teaches life lessons... But I really thought that there wasn't any plot and the resolution they had for the conflict was well, it was like there was no solution at all. But.. Maybe that's just me.. The book DID have a lot of positive reviews.....

And I can tell you it doesn't really get much better than that.
I read Gone by Michael Grant, but never could get into it I did like the basic plot, but it never got me hooked. Also I was strongly recomended the Harry Potter series, but thought they were way too drawn out and not very interesting (in my opinion). I think they just weren't my types of books.

i read beautiful creatures because everyone was like "oh my god, its the best book" or "it was amazing and i would totally read the next book", but i thought it was just boring.

i just couldn't get into it. i think the idea was pretty cool tho
I hated and I still absolutely hate fire bringer. It's such a Harry potter spinoff just deer version. Nevermore by James Patterson was so bad!!!!! I was actually liking Dylan. It had no closure at all.
I know this is extremely irrelevant but I created a blog and I'm really excited about it is called www.myviewpointonbooks.blogspot.com
I'd appreciated if you visited it and commented. Thanks.

I really like your blog! You have inspired me to create a thread where you can post blogs. Maybe you should also post your blog there?

Thanks!! I just commented there. Do u have a blog? Maybe I can check it out!

No, I'm not much of a writer. I just like reading what other people have to say.
Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer. It was really...dull. I really struggled to get through the last quarter of the book.
I didn't like mockingjay from the hunger games. It was so slow and dragged. I got the quote of the day and I have decides to do something that scares me once a week. I think we all should. Please comment on my blog when you do something like that.
Same here! My favourite of the trilogy is the first. I didn't like a wrinkle in time. BORING!
I liked a wrinkle in time. I liked the symbolisim in the book.
I liked the movie, but the book was so slow!
I couldn't get into The Maze Runner by James Dashner. Normally I like sci-fi books, but this one. The plot just didn't pull me in at all. Also, Wicked by Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguié was so confusing, I had to stop reading it. I tried to keep reading it, to see if everything got explained later on, but I had no idea what was happening. There were too many characters and different story arcs, it was like I was starting a series in the middle, but Wicked is the first in the series.
I tried to read life of pi when I was 10. Big mistake! I'm gonna give it another try, though.

It's one of the few books where I couldn't make it past 100 pages.
Mod
I actually really liked the plot, but couldn't connect to ANY of the characters! It was really boring at first, but it got interesting.
By your comments, I don't think I'm going to read it.
Mod
Well, I thought the plot was awesome once you get into it! I don't know, I guess it's just a matter of preference. But if you do want to read it, don't let other people ruin it for you, maybe just go to the library to get it or something.
I'll look for it at the school library. It's better than the public library, because they don't charge late fees!
Mod
I usually end up going to the public library, my school library doesn't have many books and you can only take out 2 at a time.
I don't go to my school library because the librarian is rabid and I heard that rabies are hard to cure. She's hates Kim. I don't even know why she works at a school.
13 to life. It was sooo random and the books stopped making sense. They keep adding characters from the Mafia and talking about cures that work and then don't work. Reading all four of the books nearly made my head explode, but I also have that condition where I need to read all of the books in the series.
