Tawna | 479 comments I just finished reading this book and I thought it was an awesome YA paranormal book! Strong female lead and that electric romance that comes when you really don't like someone but are soooo attracted to them and you both refuse to give in for the longest time. Obsidian (Lux, #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Tawna | 479 comments This moving thing has thrown me off and I am not able to write reviews yet until I get internet back, but I have read this month: Blackout, The Awakening and The Gathering....I need to read all the books in the above two lists, plus Beautiful Disaster for the pick for me challenge


message 69: by Tawna (new)

Tawna | 479 comments FINALLY....I have internet at home!!!!! Also, I finally have the TexShare library card and can go to allllll the libraries in Texas :)

So now I should be able to find the right books and possibly catch up on everything.....possibly. No extra books until I can catch up!! (that will so not happen)

Anywho, here's what I would like to finish for September:

Rot & Ruin, Once Burned, Born of night, Firespell, Mark of the Demon, Masque of the Red Death, The Moon Dwellers, The Immortal Rules, Half-Blood, The First Days, The Last Princess, The Luxe, Lies Beneath and Dark Seeker

This'll be fun trying to catch up!!

Congrats Tawna! That library card sounds cool. I read Once Burned (Night Prince, #1) by Jeaniene Frost and liked it. I am reading Born of Night (The League, #1) by Sherrilyn Kenyon now. It is interesting so far.


message 71: by Tawna (new)

Tawna | 479 comments Ooohh, I'm glad you liked Once Burned because I am kinda excited to read it. Hopefully everything will fall into place and I can get everything read super fast :)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
I am really liking Born of Night (The League, #1) by Sherrilyn Kenyon
but at first the dialogue is a little hard to get use to. I hope you enjoy.

Tawna | 479 comments This catching up thing is just not working. Maybe when I move into my own place that doesn't have children....or maybe just a place where I don't have my cousin asking me for an opinion when she doesn't really want it or.....okay, rambling about that stuff should be for therapy or something. Anywho, books to read for catch up and current BoMs:

Rot & Ruin, Once Burned, Born of night, Firespell, Mark of the Demon, Masque of the Red Death, The Moon Dwellers, The Immortal Rules, Half-Blood, The First Days, The Last Princess, The Luxe, Lies Beneath, Dark Seeker

If I Were You (Inside Out Trilogy, #1), Defiance (Defiance, #1), City of Fallen Angels (The Mortal Instruments, #4), Moon Spell (The Tale of Lunarmorte, #1), Shaedes of Gray (Shaede Assassin, #1), The Raven Boys (Raven Cycle, #1), Nightlife (Cal Leandros, #1), Outpost (Razorland #2)

oh yes and the pick for me:
Onyx :)

I hate getting behind...catching up sucks. You have to read The Immortal Rules and Once Burned. I loved those two.


message 76: by Tawna (new)

Tawna | 479 comments Once Burned is at my local library so I will definitely get to that one, but the Immortal Rules is not so that one may take a minute. I start a new job on Monday though so I should start getting book money again...woot woot!!

I'm going to be closing 2012 goal threads unless I hear otherwise. Let me know if you want this one to stay open please! You can open a new one for your 2013 goals if you'd like :)
