message 3: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Stringer Hi there! I'm from Australia.


Girlfromdystopia | 22 comments I'm American and proud!!!!!!!


message 5: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Stringer Which genres does everyone enjoy reading? I like YA, fantasy, sci-fi, drama, but I always enjoy a touch of romance in the books I read.


message 6: by Nicola (new)

Nicola I like YA, dystopia and sci-fi. I have a soft spot for some romance in the books I read too, Lynne. I can't resist a love triangle!


message 7: by Lynne (new)

Lynne Stringer Really? Which love triangle is your favourite?


Girlfromdystopia | 22 comments YA, dystopian, sci fi, historical fiction, realistic fiction, romance, teen, and fantasy. And I really hate love triangles. To me they seem to cheapen the story, like it turns into 'oh, I love him, but I also love him, what do I do?'. Although I have read books (Shatter me, TID) with love triangles that are just brilliant.

Kristin Vincent (kristinkitty) Hi :) i like fantasy and some scifi. i'm not too big on romance unless their really light and a cute type

I know exactly what you mean. When the story becomes all about the love triangle it's irritating. When it's an accompaniment to the action/main story, I tend to like them! Has anyone read The Program? That's an example of a love triangle gone wrong - it was like the author completely forgot to focus on the story a lot of the time (especially in the sequel). There was just far too much focus on the romance in those.

It's hard to choose a favourite but I enjoyed the one in The Hunger Games. :)

I couldn't agree more about The Program Nicola.

The Hunger games was great; have you guys read Partials? That was a good one too.

Hope your all peachy today x


message 43: by Nicola (new)

Nicola Hey Louise!

That sounds like a good idea :) Here's a list of books that have been banned:

/list/show/1...

Loads of surprising books on there!


message 44: by Louise (new)

Louise | 41 comments Thanks babe xxxx


message 45: by Sara, The Meme Mod! (new)

Sara | 3903 comments Mod
That's a cool list! I'll have to take a look at those!


message 46: by Brandy (new)

Brandy | 2535 comments the funny thing about that list a lot of those Banned books are also on the list of books to read before you die!!! and Why would they ban Dr. Seuss? or Judy Blume? I have read a lot on that list, want to read a lot on there. Guess I am just a rebel


message 47: by Louise (new)

Louise | 41 comments Then challenge is a really good one x


message 48: by Brandy (new)

Brandy | 2535 comments Sometimes I hate using the public library. There are some books that people just hold on to forever. I need to keep telling myself I have hundreds of other books I can get into while I wait. I guess patience is not my thing.


message 49: by Sara, The Meme Mod! (new)

Sara | 3903 comments Mod
What book are you waiting for? I have that problem too.. that's why when I finish a book I immediately return it because I know how it is to wait forever.


message 50: by Brandy (new)

Brandy | 2535 comments wonder and Neil Patrick Harris book
