Thanks Jess. I like yours too. (:
Thanks Foxy8609. I'm a total hermit when it comes to reading. I can't do anything else until I finish a book I really like. ^^

So I finished The Kite Runner last night.
I love this book so much.
The story just broke my heart. It's a beautiful and sad story.
I'm not even being dramatic. [;
It was amazing.
And I started The Anatomy of Wings.

I finished The Anatomy of Wings. It was okay. Nothing special. The story was confusing at times, the way it alternated between different people.
Aaaand I started The Fetch by Laura Whitcomb. I'm almost halfway done. I don't think it's going to be as good as A Certain Slant of Light but so far
it's not too bad. (:

Okay so I finished The Fetch late last night. I've been reading it like crazy. It was pretty good. Though IMO not as good as A Certain Slant of
Light.
Then I read Leap of Faith by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley. That was a fast-fast-read. It was a sweet little story. I enjoyed it even though I'm not
Catholic.
And I guess I'm going to start Forever Princess by Meg Cabot today.

I finished Forever Princess by Meg Cabot. It was an okay ending to the Princess Diaries series. I thought it was too convenient though, but that's
just me. I'm probably just sour the series is over. :P
Aaand I started Gilda Joyce: The Dead Drop by Jennifer Allison. I always enjoy these mysteries. They make me laugh. ^^

Ahhh, I know! All my friends want to go see it, but I refuse to go with them. I HAVE to read the book first! I've heard that about the endings being
different. I wonder how...? It seemed to upset a lot of the book fans.
And I finished Gilda Joyce: The Dead Drop today. Pretty good, but I liked the others better.
I FINALLY STARTED CITY OF BONES. I love it so far. :]

Yeah the end of my sisters keeper is AMAZING it changes it from being just another good book about a girl with cancer to an amazing original read with
a new twist on the whole cancer story. Seriously when you read it you’ll see what I mean and I think watching the movie first would change that
message and wow factor you get from the book.
Ah I really need to get round to reading city of bones ive had it for ages now. I was just looking through your challenge and some of your books on
your plan to read list are AMAZING you’ll love them my favourites are The Hunger Games, The Time Traveler's Wife, Vampire Academy, and Sloppy firsts I
cant wait to hear your opinions when you read those there just …wow.

Thanks for telling me. I am seriously not going to see the movie now. Well not until I read the book first. I got it a couple days ago, so I should
start it soon.
It sounds amazing! I can't wait. :D
You have to read City of Bones! It's so addicting, in a good way. I haven't read a really good fantasy book that I love since Harry Potter. I was
reading it all last night, and I'm almost done. Now I want the next books sooo bad!
I've been waiting for awhile to read The Hunger Games, and now it's just sitting on my shelf, lol. You're making me so anxious to start reading the
rest of my books. ^^

It really is an amazing book, im sure you’ll love it
I’ve heard only great things about that series I think im going to read it soon, I want to see what all the fuss is about! Yeah the Harry Potter books
are awesome I haven’t read them for ages I might have to re-read them soon.
 that’s what this place does to you, you’ll never be short of books to read coz
there are so many good recommendations on this place and you’ll want to read all your books so you wont be able to choose what to read first, but
seriously the hunger games is one of the best books ive ever read I haven’t spoke to anyone who hasn’t loved it yet!

I finished City of Bones and will probably start City of Ashes tonight. SO AMAZING! You have to read them! If you liked Harry Potter, you will
definetly like them too.
I seriously love this site now! I used to reread books because I couldn't find any new ones, but now I have a whole ton on my list. So great. ^^

Thanks jmarcinikglsd! :]
Okayyy, I finished City of Ashes. I don't usually go through books this fast, but I could hardly put it down, the story moves fast.
I'm going to buy City of Glass next time I go to the bookstore.
Right now, I'm reading Twenty Fragments of a Ravenous Youth by Xiaulo Gou.

I actually pushed those books up on my list because you suggested them. I'm rushing through the book I'm reading now to get to Hunger Games. Heehee,
I've heard so many good things about it!

I finished Twenty Fragments of a Ravenous Youth. It was an interesting read about a girl leaving her small country town to live in Beijing to start a
new life. It was a gritty story and portrayed a tough city life really well. The main character, Fenfang, almosts shuts the reader out as well as the
other characters in the story. Because of this the story seemed a bit detached, but it was still a good read.

Finished Bloody Jack and The Forest of Hands and Teeth.
I really enjoyed Bloody Jack. It was a good story. The way Mary 'Jacky' Faber talked was a little hard to follow since she spoke in a 'sailor's yarn',
but other than that it was a good adventure book.
I loooooved The Forest of Hands and Teeth! The story sucked me in right from the beginning! I've never read a book about zombies before, but this was
pretty awesome. Makes you think how well you would survive in a zombie attack post-apocalyptic.
And I started Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side.
