message 801: by Wendy T (new)

Wendy T Early this morning I finished The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown. I really enjoyed this book about how three very different sisters pull together to her help their mother when in need. I have to say the father irritated me through the whole book.

I am now starting Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut


ΕιÒÏήνη Recently, I've been obsessed with YA :)
I'm currently reading The Maze Runner ((too boy-ish for my taste but -admitedly- interesting))
and I'm about to start reading Hush, Hush (Hush, Hush, #1) by Becca Fitzpatrick and Crescendo (Hush, Hush, #2) by Becca Fitzpatrick


message 803: by Wendy T (new)

Wendy T Last night I finished Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut. This book was just okay to me and I think because it not the usual genre book I read. I kept losing interest throughout the book and had a hard time staying focus.

Late last night I started Cry Wolf by Tami Hoag

I loved Something Borrowed. A friend of mine gave me that book along with Jennifer Cruisie's Bet Me which I devoured. Before that I would always sneer that I would never read dumb pink books. (chick lit) but these totally convertered me and I became a huge chick lit fan after that.

I agree. I was always weary about pink books too! I haven't read Bet Me yet but it's on my list. I like Chick lit that is predicable or over told, (I find this in a lot of book. It's the same character with the same traits and the same guy with good looks, money, and smarts yada yada yada. Don't like plots like that.) But Chick Lit is fastly becoming one of my favorite genres.


message 808: by Wendy T (new)

Wendy T This morning I finished two books really good suspense novels. These Things Hidden by Heather Gudenkauf and Along Came a Spider by James Patterson.

I am now starting Rosemary's Baby by Ira Levin


message 809: by Susan (new)

Susan Mallery (susanmallery) | 82 comments I just finished reading Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins, a YA paranormal romance. So good! I normally don't go for paranormal in a big way (although I loved watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer), but this one was really fabulous. Lots of teenage angst that was relatable but twisted in a slightly magical way.

Kristie, I loved Something Borrowed and Something Blue. So interesting how she made the antagonist of one book the heroine of the next. Very impressive that she made me empathize with Darcy.

Kathy Anne (kathyanne) Waiting for You-Margot Early

This is a somewhat older Romantic/Exotic Adventure from 1996.It is set in the South American Jungle-Hero searching for the Artifact that will save someone.
This is usually right up there at the top of my plot dislikes but the story she tells and the wonderful way she fleshes out the characters has caused me to give it a 5*
I will go on Amazon this weekend and see what else she has written.
