Jill Siefert | 7 comments I know its not Feb yet but I saw this and became interested. does the book just have to involve a rockstar?

Jill Siefert | 7 comments How To Kill A Rockstar was awesome!!! I highly recommend it! A great love story with so many crazy ups and downs and twists and turns! One of those books you cannot put down!

Gabby | 88 comments Does it have to be the main character or, like a good-girl-falls-in-love-with-bad-boy-rock-star. is that acceptable. What about changing POVs?

That's acceptable :) As long as the main character is a rocker :D Multiple POVs is also ok.

Jill Siefert | 7 comments I just started and finished Breathe by Abbi Glines today and it was great. Such a great story but it leaves you wanting more. I definitely would be interested if a sequel was to come out. I recommend this to anyone looking for a good rockstar read for the challenge.


message 37: by Sara (last edited Feb 07, 2013 11:01AM) (new)

Jill,

Breathe is the first in a 5 book series. Books 2, 3, and 4 are already out!

I've only read 2 and 3, but I really liked them. I recently bought Breathe, so I'm going to read it, 2 and 3 again, and then 4!

Have you heard when book 4 is going to be released?


message 45: by Jill (new)

Jill Siefert | 7 comments Ok so I just finished "Metamorphosis" and it was amazing. I rank it up there with Beautiful Disaster for me. Two girls go off to college and read all these steamy YA romance books and fall in love with boys like everyone. They reference Travis, Kellan, Christian and watch movies and put on thier "Team Edward" shirts lol. its great. And both Ash and Rat are great examples of the fantasy book boyfriend. Rat is in a band and I HIGHLY recommend it!


message 46: by Purvika (new)

Purvika (violetstygian) Readin Guitar Notes by Mary Amato and Thoughtless (Thoughtless, #1) by S.C. Stephens for the challenge


message 47: by Chris (new)

Chris | 7142 comments Mod
Currently reading I Love You to Death by Natalie Ward for this challenge. I also have Guitar Notes by Mary Amato in my too reads so I'll give that one a read too!


message 48: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Reading Guitar Notes and it is so fun, love the fresh way that the relationship between Tripp and Lyla evolves...Tripp is a guitar player and Lyla is an extremely talented cello player, so the main characters are both musicians


message 49: by Lisa (new)


message 50: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle Good job everyone!

Just finished The Secret of Ella and Micha (The Secret, #1) by Jessica Sorensen (4 stars)

Micha is in a band, so I think it fits. It's a great book. Very intense. Not suitable for younger readers, though, since the content is pretty steamy.
