Tara (tarareads23) I'm reading Torment (Fallen, #2) by Lauren Kate which is YA paranormal romance of course. And one non-YA. A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire, #4) by George R.R. Martin But I haven't picked that up in a few days though. And I probably won't pick it up anytime soon, lol because I'm planning on buying the 3rd book in the Fallen series, Passion (Fallen, #3) by Lauren Kate

I keep forgetting to add stuff. lol

I am loving the Fallen series and Torment is really, really good. :)

It's been a while since I read the first one, but I'm liking the main character more than the one in the first book. I feel like she's more real as a person and she has a lot more life experience than Aishling :)

Did you know that Drew Barrymore is going to direct the film Heist Society based on the books?

I added Hereafter to my to-read list. Sounds really good. Thanks! :) The cover kind of reminds me of the Fallen series covers.

This is the third book and they're saying this is ONE of the best out of the six, so I'm so excited!!! The first book is great and I love the second more.

I LOVE THOSE BOOKS!!!! the Kaylee/Nash storyline is awesome. perfect amount of romance, confusion, and conflict to keep the story moving.

You SO need to do that! Vampire Academy is my favorite YA series EVER.
And that third book is probably the best in the whole series.
Trust me on this one ;D


message 22: by Elena (last edited Sep 25, 2011 01:07PM) (new)

Elena (summerday) | 18 comments Believe it or not, I'm not reading any paranormal at the moment.
In fact, I'm currently reading two classics [my other passion (:]: Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoj and The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James.
The first, I'm about half through it, and I'm seriously loving it, while the latter I've just started.
Classics are kinda "binding", so I've got to focus on them or else I'll never finish them.
More than anything these two, since they're both extra long. Especially AK. ;D

Anyway, I've currently got Firelight (Firelight, #1) by Sophie Jordan , Timeless (Timeless, #1) by Alexandra Monir , Possessions (Possessions, #1) by Nancy Holder and
Blood Song (Lharmell #1) by Rhiannon Hart
in stock.
Though judging from the reviews, Timeless is the one I'm most excited about. And Blood Song, hopefully.

I think I'll put myself into one of these soon. ;D

Yeah I read right through all of them! I love Tod! Nash is ehh okay but he really upset me in the third one. The fourth one was good but a new girl Sabine drove me INSANE! OMG but I will be at the book store Tuesday for the 5th one because it is supposed to be a good book for Tod lovers! So I am crazy excited.

I've read 8 chapters so far and I hate Sabine ... she's driving me insane with her possessiveness over Nash. And Nash is driving me crazy by keeping all those secrets that effect him and Kaylee :^)

DITTO! I mean Nash has been a complete idiot this whole time! His mom could have easily gotten him over his Demon Breath addiction if he just told her right away but instead he went crazy! and did all kinds of horrible things and ruined all his friends lives! OMG and then Sabine is nuts! I absolutely hate hate her and she is still going to be in the next book out Tuesday so I'm kind of upset about that!

And now I've read more off the book, I'm actually starting to kind of hate Todd too ... I don't know why but I really like Kaylee and it looks like everyone is turning against her or something :^)


message 30: by Tiff (new)

Tiff (toastreads) I bought Voices of Dragons by Carrie Vaughn and Steel by Carrie Vaughn and a couple others on an impulse when I visited Borders for the last time.

I'm currently readingVoices of Dragons and so far it isn't too bad. I guess I just haven't decided how I feel about it yet lol.

Torment is awesome!!


message 36: by Tara (new)

Tara (tarareads23) I finished Torment (Fallen, #2) by Lauren Kate Sunday night. It was incredibly good.

I started reading Eclipse (Twilight, #3) by Stephenie Meyer . I've read Twilight and New Moon and really liked those but for some reason Eclipse wasn't pulling me in like those two. So, I've been reading it in between reading the books that I really want. I did read some of A Feast of Crows this morning before work. I'm just waiting for the end of the week, so I can buy Passion (Fallen, #3) by Lauren Kate and Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy, #1) by Richelle Mead , so I can start reading one of them. lol

@Sara I tried getting into The Luxe, but I couldn't. I was really excited to start reading it too, but it just wasn't doing it for me.

@Marielle and @Elena I actually wanted to read Vampire Academy a while ago but never did pick up the book to start reading it. A co-worker is reading it now and convinced me to start reading it. So, now I'm really excited because so many of you have read the book(s).

@Elena I want to read Anna Karenina too. And I have Blood Song on my to-read list.

@Jennifer I LOVE Jane Eyre! It's one of my very favorite books and my favorite classic.

@Mariam Yes, it is! :)

I got them at amazon.com for kindle for pc. And Tod is not against Kaylee don't worry! He was mean to say that stuff about letting Sabine have Nash but I am positive he only said that because he wants her!


message 38: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer (ivashkovlover) I highly recommend Reaper (Soul Screamers, #3.5) by Rachel Vincent !!!!!!! It explains all about how Tod died and how and why be became a reaper and his relationship with Nash. The next book If I Die (Soul Screamers, #5) by Rachel Vincent is supposed to get into some of that too


message 39: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer (ivashkovlover) I just bought If I Die (Soul Screamers, #5) by Rachel Vincent and I am crazy excited to start it! I'll probably be done by tonight!

I don't have a Kindle and they usually don't sell to people who out of the country ... At least that's the way it works at amazon uk :^)


message 41: by Jennifer (last edited Sep 27, 2011 12:21PM) (new)

Jennifer (ivashkovlover) I don't have a kindle yet either but I just downloaded the kindle for pc program for free. I'm not sure how it works for out of the country though. You can look at Rachel Vincent's website. I read somewhere that she swore to have them up free there at all times but I couldn't find them so I paid $2 or something like that to read them off kindle.


message 42: by Zoë (new)

Zoë | 114 comments I just read her blog and she said that Reaper was free on the website of her publisher, but I just checked and it wasn't free any more ... The other was never for free though :)

Tara (tarareads23) I bought Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy, #1) by Richelle Mead today. And I started reading it at work today (during lunch). And so far, so good. :)

I didn't buy Passion (Fallen, #3) by Lauren Kate I'm going to wait till the paperback comes out.

Has anyone started the spin-off from the Vampire Academy series, Bloodlines (Bloodlines, #1) by Richelle Mead ? I actually read the synopsis and wanted to read that but was told it would be better to read the VA series first.


message 45: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer (ivashkovlover) I would recommend reading the VA series before you read Bloodlines. I have read all of them and they are fabulous!


message 46: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer (ivashkovlover) If I Die (Soul Screamers, #5) by Rachel Vincent I have read this and have been re-reading it since I loved it so much. I need to get back to my other books soon Entwined by Heather Dixon & Second Grave on the Left (Charley Davidson, #2) by Darynda Jones


message 47: by Tara (new)

Tara (tarareads23) @Jennifer Thanks! I'm going to do that. :)

That Charley Davidson series sounds good. I put the first book on my to-be read list.
