rachel, x (typedtruths) | 8401 comments I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You (Gallagher Girls, #1) by Ally Carter

I suppose a lot of teenage girls feel invisible sometimes, like they just disappear. Well, that's me - Cammie the Chameleon. But I'm luckier than most because, at my school, that's considered cool.

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 8401 comments Twilight (Twilight, #1) by Stephenie Meyer

My mother drove me to the airport with the windows rolled down. It was seventy-five degrees in Phoenix, the sky a perfect, cloudless blue.


message 208: by Inês (new)

Inês | 583 comments Oooh Twilight? Reading for the first time or re-reading it? :)

Re-reading ☺ We're doing the whole series ☺


message 210: by Inês (new)

Inês | 583 comments Ah, okay :) I probably must have read Twilight 6 times or something. I was like 13-14 when it came out and I'd swoon over Edward every time I'd read the cafeteria scene. xD

message 212: by Inês (new)

Inês | 583 comments I use to worship the Twilight series and thought it was flawless, now I can actually see it had a looot of stupid things xD But it will always have a special place in my heart and in my bookshelf, because it was actually this series that made me fall in love with reading :)

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 8401 comments Glitch (Lost in Time #1) by Brenda Pandos

The soft cheers of fans in the bleachers floated around me as I stood planted in the right field, waiting for the next batter. My mind was elsewhere.

"Harry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways. For one thing, he hated the summer holidays more than any other time of year. For another, he really wanted to do his homework but was forced to do it in secret, in the dead of night. And he also happened to be a wizard."

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 8401 comments Cress (The Lunar Chronicles, #3) by Marissa Meyer

Her satellite made a full orbit of Earth every sixteen hours. It was a prison that came with an endlessly breath-taking view - vast blue oceans and swirling clouds and sunrises that set half the world on fire.

Mei (meijey) | 3810 comments Just One Day (Just One Day, #1) by Gayle Forman

What if Shakespeare had it wrong?

To be, or not to be: that is the question. That's from Hamlet's-maybe Shakespeare's-most famous soliloquy. I had to memorize the whole speech for sophomore English, and I can still remember every word. I didn't give it much thought back then. I just wanted to get all the words right and collect my A. But what if Shakespeare-and Hamlet-were asking the wrong question?

What if the real question is not whether to be, but how to be?

I taped the commercial back in April, before anything had happened, and promptly forgot about it. A few weeks ago, it had started running, and suddenly, I was everywhere.
