What are you currently reading?

I always pick up that book crank, and then put it down. I just can't see myself getting into that series. I have a very wide range of interest and i , for lack of a better word, enjoy addiction stories cause it relates close to home. Grew up around it, have family members that are addicts. I think it's refreshing there are books about addiction, fictional or not, because it bursts that lil fantasy bubble. But this series , everytime i read the summaries i'm just liek ugh...it seems cliche to me.. girls gets addicted...girl becomes promiscuous, girl struggles to get clean, relapses, a love triangle thrown in the mix. lol. But, i feel bad for judging the book without reading it. I think i shall spend a day in the bookstore and just read it there.

oh thats not fair, putting a book on the level of VA, VA will win every time lol.

that is true Va is great hands down, it's not right for any other book to have to compete. Same goes for Georgina Kincaid.

It's Twilight that got me into reading again too. I used to read all the time when i was younger but through the teens I stopped reading and now I can't seem to stop so I praise SM for Twilight cause if it weren't for her I wouldn't be reading therefore wouldn't be here on this site enjoying VA and all the other great series I'm into

Well we appreciate what ever road that lead you here, now you can let your judgment be your guide.

I am currently reading The Lovely Bones mhm it's good WAY different than the movie but the movie is great in it's own rights

i just bout the second book of the angel experiment maximum ride series i think its called schools out forever. these books are totally worth the $6 you pay. the first book had 100 and something chapters the second has 143 chapters. these books last longer if your like me and usually breeze through books way too fast. this will keep me occupied until my next book on my list is released in a few days.

I read this book a week ago. And not really interest. I just don't understand what Suzie wants... I thought she wants to make her murderer to under arrest, but all she doing is just stalked everyone that she ever knew. =.="

It's not like she had much of a choice really. She couldn't arrest him herself, there was no way of making that happen, so she resorted to watching the lives she could have been a part of.

I read Lovely Bones early last year and I felt the ending was pretty weak. I actually preferred the movie over the book since I thought Peter Jackson did a better job of conveying what it was Susie needed to move on. What I got from the movie was that Susie didn't need to have her remains or Mr. Harvey found in the end. All she wanted was to grow up. And that kiss between her and Ray was cute. Not at all like it was in the book. The ending in the book made everything too complicated. The movie's ending was much more simple.

So where do we read the parts about Death Note?

I just finished The Lovely Bones it's amazing ^_^
I'm going to start Happy Hour Of The Damned soon and next week I'm going to buy the next 4 Sookie Stackhouse books

I'm currently re reading both Frostbite and The Awakening (by L.J. Smith)

lol I was looking at VA quotes and now I'm wanting to re-read VA but I can't. I just read 5 books over the weekend from the Private series by Kate Brian (no vamps or anything like that). I'm taking a break today to let my eyes rest lol but tomorrow I start on Untamed from the HON series and then I'll read Hunted. I've got all 3 books from the Wicked Lovely series to read, and The Van Alen Legacy (Blue Bloods) to read also. Oh and I've got Evernight (Evernight Academy) waiting for me at the library. I think I need to slow down a bit on the reading...

I am currently reading a book called "Heat Wave" by Richard Castle. Now Richard Castle isn't real. He's a TV character on a show called Castle. The show's about a writer who tags along with the police to get material for his books. Ironically, the book is also about a writer (well, reporter) who tags along with the police to get background information about police investigations, that kind of thing. The story is a murder mystery. No vamps or wolves or demons...just people. So far, it's pretty good.

sometimes you gotta get away from the vamps demons etc and take in a regular story or two or three. lol, i get in different moods and my reading reflects that. most all the series i read are either sci fi or fantasy so as the new books are released i remain in those genres. in between i read other stuff, that are usually just a single print.

goodness, you sound like me
tbh, I don't even remember all the books I wanna read - it's far too many for me to keep track of them all
I do want to get hold of the last HON one, though...

variety is always good for the soul. I binge read just like you Wilda. I'm actually really really angry cause I can't do that right now because school has taken over my life. Funny thing is though, i'm not even in classes right now. My semester doesnt start til March.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who reads like that I write down all the books I come across that I want to read. I have about 5 or 6 pages front and back of books titles. I'm 28th on the waiting list for Tempted (HON). I won't make it til then I'll end up buying it most likely this weekend lol. I get so absorbed that I have to read the next book that is available. It is nice to get away from all the vamps and stuff for a little while. The weekend was a nice break for me but I can't seem to stay away for long. I'm ready to start reading Untamed now but I made a promise to myself to go at least 24 hrs without reading a book so I'm going to wait until morning to start it.

I'm reading 'Rebel Angels' by Libba Bray ... I've read it before, but just bought The Sweet Far Thing and need to remember what happened before it so I'm not so confused

Right now I'm reading Lover Avenged, Rehvenge's book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. I srsly love this series!! I read the first five books last month, and just finished the sixth one yesterday. I think Zsadist, Rhage, Vishous, and Butch's stories have been my favorites. Especially Butch. Butch O'Neal ftw!!

But I dunno what I'm going to do after I finish with this one. I guess I should start at that TBR pile that's nearly 30 books long since the next BDB book (JM's story) doesn't come out until a day after my birthday in April!! In any case, I know what I'm getting myself as a present.

I just finished The Hollow by Jessica Verday, I like it ^^
I like the main character, Abbey, she's so likeable...
Jessica Verday did great job in this book. Can't wait read the next book

Oh, now, i'm reading Wolf Totem by Jiang Rong

Wilda, i also have a list! I have like 4 pages of YA books and like 3 pages or other genres. I should type it up and post it one day soon.

Kim, i don't feel like a geek anymore. i also reread the first book before reading the second book. Even if it's a long series say like the HP books, i reread the whole series before the new book, every time. Everyone i know calls me a nerd. But, i hate to miss little things and my memory retention is not very good lol.

Dimkaluv, ( sorry I can't seem to remember your name, I want to say Ashely but i think that's wrong...) Do you find hard to pick up new series inbetween your regular series? I'm kinda in that place now and it's frustrating to me because it adds more books I want to read or have to wait to be released. It's a never ending cycle isn't is? lol

Kaya, hmm i don't remember coming across those books. What are they about?
