Lol! I've been trying to check, too, but I'm working right now so I've been trying to stay away from GR...there's too much to do on here and I don't get any work done :)

Sorry Sarah and Sarah...I saw I had your name down twice so I took one out...

Alyssia would you mind picking another book for Sarah (http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/45...)?

As long as Alyssia doesn't mind picking another one I have it fixed:

Cindy � Sarah (#27)
Sarah (#27) � Sheri
Sarah (#59) - Alyssia
Alyssia - Sarah (#59)

We'll wait to hear from Alyssia...sorry for the confusion!

Well, I teach at a college and Summer classes don't start until Monday. So I've been alternating between reading like a madwoman enjoying the last bits of freedom and polishing up my syllabus.
If it weren't for ŷ, I would have gone crazy these past three weeks of forced vacation.

Sarah | 8 comments Alyssia...this is one I've tried to read and hated...I'm so sorry...=(


message 111: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 8 comments Alyssia...I'm picking Matched for you...it's one I've read and enjoyed.


message 112: by Lys (last edited Jun 01, 2012 11:14AM) (new)

Lys (lysrowan) Oh, OK. Well, let me rethink this then.
How about Ender's Game (Ender's Saga, #1) by Orson Scott Card ?
It's a classic.

If not, The Year My Sister Got Lucky by Aimee Friedman
Also, you might want to move tHG from your to-read?


message 113: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 8 comments Read Ender's Game and enjoyed it...I read it along with some of my 5th graders. I'll do The Year My Sister Got Lucky. =)


message 114: by Lys (new)

Lys (lysrowan) OK lady, you need to update your to-read list! :-P Ender's Game is on there - I know I'm not totally crazy.

Thanks for working it out, Sheri. For you I pick

The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger from your to-read shelf (is that the correct shelf, or would you rather I pick something from your owned shelf?) This is one of my favorite books ever and I hope you enjoy it!

Sarah | 5 comments Cindy wrote: "For Sarah, I pick Tithe (The Modern Faerie Tales, #1) by Holly Black. I have not read it so let me know what you think!"

I'm looking forward to reading this! I've had it for a long time and never got around to it.

Yep, that works! I've been wanting to read that forever but just haven't gotten around to it!

Thanks so much I'm excited for this!


message 120: by Raven (new)

Raven (missy_aurora) | 0 comments For Laura I picked Vampire Academy (Vampire Academy, #1) by Richelle Mead . Enjoy!

Sorry I keep double posting in this thread.


Cobwebs-Iced-In-Space  (readingreindeerproximacentauri) | 150 comments Rachael: your choice is too cool-and too apropos! No, I haven't read The Goddess Test (Goddess Test, #1) by Aimee Carter ; the reason I have Goddess Interrupted (Goddess Test, #2) by Aimee Carter is that I was sent it for review, and I had planned to get started on it this evening, so this is just too perfect! Thank you.


Cobwebs-Iced-In-Space  (readingreindeerproximacentauri) | 150 comments Rachael, I'll pick Struck by Jennifer Bosworth , because I really, really want to read this myself!:) so look forward to your review.

Could you pick something from my TBR shelf please?

I know anticipation can be killer, try to be patient. Partners were listed less than 24 hours ago and your partner has until the 5th to pick a book for you. Maybe they just haven't had a chance to get on their computer yet today. If your partner ends up not picking for you, I'd be happy to pick a book for you. :)


message 133: by Brittany (new)

Brittany (wulfgirl) For my partner Janis I picked Insurgent (Divergent, #2) by Veronica Roth . Hope that you love it. :)


message 134: by Janis (new)

Janis (janispr80) | 75 comments I have picked The Goose Girl (The Books of Bayern, #1) by Shannon Hale for Margaret. Hope you enjoy it!

I am sorry you didn't like Matched (Matched, #1) by Ally Condie .
How about Incarnate (Newsoul, #1) by Jodi Meadows or Everneath (Everneath, #1) by Brodi Ashton . I haven't read either one but I have seen alot of comments on both of them. I hope you will like either one of these.
