As for a cheerful read, hmm I'm not sure what to give you, most of the teen books these days are pretty dark.
And I'm reading "Before I Fall" currently and it is amazing. I love it. I'm also in the middle of "Fire" (the sequel to Graceling)

Okay, to be honest, when I want a pick-me-up, I disappear into a Dilbert or Foxtrot collection.

Me too! (For Before I Fall, anyways). Fire is really, really good, so I hope you like it as much as I did.
Just finished "Practical Magic." I enjoyed the book, and I think Alice Hoffman writes great magical realism novels, but I have to say--I enjoyed the movie more. Am I the only one?

I read The Knife of Never Letting Go.
I, unlike the tons of people who rave about it, did not like it.
Currently reading The Maze Runner by James Dashner.

"I just finished "If I Stay" as well... was a little mixed on it. How is "Where She Went" going?
In my opinion,I didn't like it.I also felt had mixed thoughts on If I Stay but the sequel was just wasn't for me.It's told from Adam's perspective and well I got kind of bored of listening to him rant on about his career and his broken heart....Hope you have better luck with it
I just finished the book The Mephisto Covenant: The Redemption of Ajax and it was surprisingly intriguing. Should give it a read guys!
"Beastly" by Alex Flinn and I've been so disappointed by it. The supposed "teen talk" is killing it. I love the concept though so I'm hoping I'll be won over by the end!
Rachel wrote: "Divergent is amazing! I am reading The Alchemyst- one of my students suggested it because he loves the series and wanted to have a teacher read it so I did."I loved Divergent! I can't wait for the sequel to come out.

I just finished the Clockwork Prince a week or so ago too. I'm not a die-hard Clare fan like some are, but I do enjoy them. I was told to start with the ID series before I start MI, which most people seem to like better.
I like ID better than MI.I guess Cassandra Clare did a pretty good job on this one.I liked MI instruments but I loved ID.Give 'Where She Went' a chance.Maybe just maybe you might have a different opinion because for this one I am in the minority.
just started reading, it was free to get so even better!!!
I'm only about 60 pages into this book, and so far, I'm incredibly interested in the story line.
I'm finally done with
, going to take a little break than start on
. Afterwards I gotta finish
.
I needed some adult conversation and am currently reading P.S. I Love You by Cecilia Ahern.
I just finished maze runner and I'm starting frozen
I finished rereading
SO awesome! � Now I started
and so far it looks great!
I'm reading Magyk by Angie Sage, a magical childrens book. I'm taking it slow with this one,I'm still not even a quarter through and it's very magical!
was recommended to me by a few people but haven't had time to sit and read lately but I'm getting through it!
I forget if I already posted this (sorry if I did) but I'm reading "Fire" by Kristin Cashore(the sequel to Graceling) and "City of Bones" by Cassandra Clare.

. I'm a little confused by the release date of this book because its not supposed to come out until April 3rd but I bought it at Barnes and Noble and when I went online it asked me if I wanted to pre-order it...
Just started "Blood of Destiny" book #6 in the Witch Fairy Series by Bonnie Lamer! So excited, one of the best series i've ever read. :)
I have added so many books ro my 'to read' shelf because of this thread! :)
Currently reading
.Even better than her Iron Fey series.
Finished frozen by robin wasserman but I didn't care much for it. I'm hoping to start reading either divergent or the scorch trials tomorrow. Or maybe one of the other thousand books on my to read list. :)
Started on
. Than going to finish up on
.
Yesss! I've been waiting for this one for what seems like forever!!!
I'm reading Inheritance by Christopher Paolini, Song of Fire and Ice by George Martin, and Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. I think I have reader's ADD. I can't focus on just one book. :)
Just about to start - hate the cover though.
Song and Fire was a long read Lindsey. I'm planning on book 2 later on this year. I need to catch up on some of my YA reads and another kindler intruduced me to
. Supposed to be fun fast reads.
Yay! My Amazon.com orders arrived today. After "City of Bones", I'm planning to start "Thirteen Reasons Why". I'm so excited!
