I just finished The Fire Eternal (book 4 in Chris D'Lacey's Dragon series) last night and am now in the process of figuring out which book to read next. Water for Elephants, The Book Thief, or The Witch's Boy. I'll read them all eventually, but don't like reading more than one book at a time.
Water for Elephants was a great book and movie! One of the few that I actually liked the movie as well as the book
I am a softie for animals. Water for Elephants was hard for me. I finished the book, but avoided the movie because the book had been upsetting. Well written, but the man who harmed the animals.....ugh. Tough.
I hear that.... I definitely couldn't watch that part of the movie... made me cry...0 -
eeeeekkk!!!! I'm sooo excited!!!! I hope they do it well!!!0 -
Thank you! That looks really good. I hope it doesn't disappoint.0 -

I'm with you on the animals, I've been warned to keep a box of tissue handy while reading it. That's pretty much the reason I haven't read it yet.0 -
I listened to the Hunger Games series and loved them all! Can't wait for the movie!
I'm currently reading What Alice Forgot - gotta say it's weird so far...
I've got Storm Front (1st Dresden file book) started on e-Reader.
Is anyone on Goodreads?1 -
I really wanna read the Hunger Games books. So many of my friends have read it and every single one of them has loved it...and now I see everyone here does, too!0

I am, but I am hardly on there anymore. Probably because I am here.

I just stared "Angel of Death Row" by Andrea Lyons. It's her true story about being a death row defense lawyer. So far, it's really good. I like the way it's written, and I'm intrigued by the story. Definitely recommended.0

I am reading The Help. I am thoroughly enjoying it too.1

11/22/63. King's new book. It's pretty awesome. I'm savoring it as slowly as I can.0

I decided to go for an easy read this week since I have family coming in for the holiday. An easy read for me is something that I can finish within a 48 hour period. So right now I am reading Envy by J.R. Ward. It's the 3rd book in a romantic thriller series with some angels and demons and saving the world thrown.0

I saw those the other day in the bookstore and wondered if they were any good. What do you think of them?0 -
I also read The Hunger Games series recently! Wasn't expecting to like it since Twilight makes my stomach churn (and for whatever reason I associated Hunger Games w/ Twilight), but it was a very gripping story. Ended up finishing them all in a matter of a few days!
Other than that, I've been reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman. So far it's great, but I've neglected it due to my crazed HG reading!0 -

I see this happening a lot. I think it is because there are a few similarities:
Young Adult Genre
Trilogies
Love Triangle
Female Main Character
This is where they end though. I think there will be extensive comparison between the two when the movies come out as well.
Has anyone seen or read Battle Royale?0 -

I have that on my bookshelf waiting to be read and in my DVD player waiting to be watched :-)
I liked the book alot better than the movie. But they were both good. I lent out my Water for Elephants but I would love to read it again.0 -

I did enjoy reading the Twilight books but I was also suprised at how different the Hunger Games were! All the people that told me to read it are Twilight fanatics so I ASSumed it was along the same lines lol I'm glad it wasn't!0 -
I am currently reading the House of Night series ( Im on Hunted) and love it. I cant put them down. P.C. Cast is an amazing author.
I have Prince of Theives, Red Ridding Hood, and lots other at home waiting for me to finish this series.
For anyone that lives in Denver, CO there is an AMAZING used/ new book store in Littleton that I visit on a weekly basis. They have book from .25 cents and up!!! https://www.facebook.com/nookBN?ref=ts&sk=app_154158274650754#!/TheTradesmart
