There are definitely a lot of issues with them. And I'm barely into it :P

I loved Crank, for the poetry.

The poetry's undeniably the best thing about her books, at least to my mind.
Aaaah I'm still down after Parvana's Journey. It's so sad but it's so REAL! :(:(:(:(:(
OH OH OH I READ THAT!Well, like, three years ago. Anyway, I loved it.
Have you read the other two books? (Mud City is actually my favourite)

I read the breadwinner, but I haven't read Mud City yet. I really want to - it's nice how she's not trying to hush up all the cruel or harsh bits - like I said before, it's real.
hmm. Well, you should read Mud City, 'cause it's about what happens to Parvana's friend after the first two books. Hard to say why I like that one so much- maybe Shauzia just seems like a more likeable character.
Oh. That'll be good for me - I was feeling strong hate towards her. But for some reason I can't help liking Asif.
I know! He's so grumpy and rude, but there's something about him that you have to love. He's funny too...his sarcasm is amazing.
There's more books to The Breadwinner? I didn't know that...

I need to read those...maybe...
They're pretty good.Well. I read them almost two years ago, so perhaps I'd find them different now. Hmmm.

LOOKING FOR ALASKA YES YES YESI cannot be pleased enough if you're reading this.
Mod
An Abundance of Katherines is my least favourite, though I haven't read Will Grayson, Will Grayson yet. Not sure whether I prefer Paper Towns or Looking for Alaska...they're both great.
Mod
I'm reading
It's pretty good so far, the descriptions are greatly visualized.
I've heard so many good things about that book...alas, I haven't had a chance to read it yet.

*gasps*It's definitely worth getting out of your backpack.
Same with me. "I really want to read it, but my butt's REALLY comfortable right now and I think I just lost feeling in all of my limbs, so I'm not gonna' get up."
I can't wait to read Will Grayson, Will Grayson
I'm 2 thirds the way through Will Grayson, Will Grayson. Anyone a nerdfighter?
The Antique Gift Shop, Volume 1 by Lee Eun. It's...more than a little weird.Don't know why but in my sleepless nights of late I've been reading heaps of manga.

Almost finished reading
, 11th or 12th book of 2011 so far (I think).
BUtterfield 8 by John O'Hara. Only just started it, but the opening is epic.
Yes :) I've still yet to find one that I liked as much as Crank, however :P
I wanna read The Girl With the Dragon Tattoooooooo

Like, I like the poetry, but the plot itself and all the characters are lacking.
