Alright, if you post a short review now you are ready to go for your next book :)

Silvia wrote: "Um, am I supposed to ask Riya to pick a book for me to read??"

Yeah, I already told Riya she has to pick a book for you, but won't hurt asking her yourself :)

Hey Jasmin, can you update my entry? I'll be reading The Queen's Army for a short story.

@Hannah
I wanted just a few sentences in your "I'm finished" post, but I guess a link to your real review is alright, too lol

You got a 5, so you move from 2 to 7 :)

7 (Male Protagonist/Green Cover)

Finished Clockwork Prince
My few sentence review thingy: I really liked this book, surprisingly! It was much better than Clockwork Angel and a million times better than The Mortal Instruments series! Can't wait to read the next one.

XD So yeahh…

@Natalya
You got a 3, so you are on 7 now, too :)

@Hannah
To me it looks a little bit more turquoise/blue than green, but I suppose it's still alright :)

Is it okay if I read for green cover? I started it, but I'm literally only 1% in because I started a different book instead :P

Yeah, at least I see the green theme there between all the black lol

So, I finished the Queen's Army.

My review: Awesome. We get to be inside the head of Wolf this time. This story made me love him even more!

You got a 6 now :) So you go from 2 to 8.
8 (Mystery/Shapeshifter)

I suppose shapeshifter is the right genre for you :D

I got a 6!?!?!
First time in my life that I got lucky in something.

And yes, shapeshifter is definitely the right genre for me:D

PS - Recommendations for shapeshifter, please!

@Divya
I can't see the books you've already read, but some shapeshifter books/series I like:
(first one is on amazon for $1.24 as ebook)
(free on amazon)
(Werewolves aren't important in the first one, but they exist)
(that's about dragons and I loved it :) )
Other list with shapeshifter themed books:

@Hannah
your book is ok, at least it goes into the right direction XD

Hey Silvia!! SO sorry for being late- I totally didn't see that I was supposed to pick a book for you!!! My bad!!

Anyways, I pick The Scorpio Races for you!

Finished Obsidian
This book is and will always be amazing :D Although Katy annoyed me a lot, Daemon made up for everything ;)

Awesome Miss Amazingness!!!

Your next roll is a 4, so you're on square 11 (Read 2 books)!

Alrighty, I shall read Clockwork Princess and Belles by Jen Calonita

If its alright with you, I'm gonna read instead of Belles. There was something wrong with my copy of the book :P

Beginning May 2014

1st Roll-2
Short Story/1st in series
Standing in the Light 5-3-14--Story of a girl who was captured by indians. The interesting part is how difficult it was for her to be back with her family.

@Lisa
You got a 6 :D
You move from 2 to 8 now (mystery/Shapeshifter)

Thanks for the recommendations, Jasmin :)
I'll be reading , then.

Finished The Tension of Opposites
This book is told in the POV of Tessa, a girl whos best friend was kidnapped two years ago, and it follows Tessa's life as she tries to understand what happened to her friend during those years, and tries to protect her at the same time. Sound interestig but its actually really boring :P

Finished Clockwork Princess
A good conclusion to the Infernal Devices trilogy, but it wasn't the better of the three books. Clockwork Prince, in my opinion, is the best book of the trilogy.

You are so fast! :)
You got a 2, so you are on 13 now (About a love triangle/Series you dropped before)

@Riya
I finished my book today :)

Review: I think this is going to be my all time favourite, but since this was a re-read I was able to discover a lot of thing I didn't before. For example: Kiera Cass hates to describes people, I think. Most of the times we only get hair colors and just sometimes a few hints at clothing lol

I finished with

Review: OMG the feels !! I’m satisfied with the ending of this book. I think the author did a good job in making a great dystopian and in not crushing my heart at the end. I would have preferred a more explicit ending in the epilogue, but I can live with the hope that the author left us with. This is a great trilogy and I recommend it!

About a love triangle: Throne of Glass

@Nathasha: You got a 3 and moved to 7 :)

@Natalya: I actually wouldn't count Throne of Glass as a love triangle, there are hints in the first book, but as far as I remember it wasn't a real triangle.

(view spoiler)[ If I'm remembering correctly (I read the book almost a year ago, I think), even though Chaol didn't pursue Celaena like Dorian did, it was clear that he cared for her and Celaena did care for both of them…but I guess that depends on people's definition of love triangles, because no one thinks the same :P (hide spoiler)]

I'll read Crown of Midnight instead then :)

I will be reading for green cover... it is actually mint green. Does it counts?

@Jasmin: You got a 5 and moved to 6 - which means you go to 10 and I pick your book and I pick :D

Finished Crown of Midnight
Ughh, I really need the next book >.< Like now. I can't believe it ended like that...poor Chaol :(

Sadly you only got a 1 this time :( You move to 14 (Author you never read before/Book set in UK)

Now I'm curios abut Book 2!! lol (didnt read it yet)

Author you've never read before:

The second book was soooo good :D You should read it soon :P

Finished Shadowlands
I don't even know what to say about this book. I'm confused…so confused…I don't even know what happened or why…

XD Not necessarily bad…just…not good? XD

Yeahh :/ Sometimes I like it, cuz it makes me wanna read on, but other times it's just annoying

How do you finish them so fast? Are you even reading it properly? lol
You got a 4, so you move to 18 (Published the year you were born/Cover with wings on it) You are almost at the end already :)

XD The book just wasn't very long ;)
Cover with wings on it:

Finished Angel
It was definitely one of the more original fallen angel novel that I've read, but it was kind of dumb and boring. The romance wasn't very appealing either. The two characters hated each other for half of the book, then all of a sudden were madly in love, and from there on, the book was a huge pile of sap.

I finished with

I really enjoyed this book. I loved its characters, the plot and almost everything. At the end of the book I could see some growth in the characters, but to me it feels that the story is not quite over. I really hope that Rainbow Rowell does a sequel.

What is the number of my next roll?

You got a 4 Nathasha! Now you're on square 11 so you just have to read 2 books!

Well my first book will be

Did anyone roll for Miss amazingness 01?

you got a 2, so I'm picking a book for you :)

Please try to finish reading Crossed again, since I really liked the whole series :) (If you really can't finish, I can still chsnge the book)

Hannah wrote: "Finished:

Thoughts: ugh! I loved it, was about as good as the first book, though the cliff hanger of an ending left me needing the next book, but I have to wait till..."


You got a 4, so you go to 11 (Read 2 books)! :)

Finished Crossed.
This book was extremely slow-paced and suffers from the dreaded middle book syndrome. Nothing seemed to happen-- it was simply made to fill the gap between Matched and Reached.
