I made a little progress in The Sea of Tranquility.  I've been thinking about it all weekend, but I'm not really sure why.  Nothing amazing is happening yet, but I still can't wait to get back to it. It's a sign of a good book, I guess!

I'm now 49% into Phantom of the Opera. I'm enjoying it so far.  And of course I keep hearing the songs from the musical in my head the whole time, lol.

I had a good reading weekend, as we were at the beach. I started and finished The Fault in our Stars and finished The Ocean at the End of the Lane. I completely neglected Winter of the World because it is overwhelming me. I know I will love it, but the idea that it is due back at the library this week and I'm only 20% finished is giving me anxiety :-S

I finally finished The Moon and More by Sarah Dessen. I give it 2 stars. I really wasn't impressed.

I am a few chapters from finishing Thorn Queen and you all were right!  Eugenie has grown on me so much throughout this book.  I'm looking forward to starting the next one immediately!

I'm slowly working my way into Clockwork Prince.

I didn't get a change to read anything this weekend.  My Nook is feeling very neglected.

Aw, I'm glad!  She's one of my literary heroes.  She's just so awesome.

I totally ignored The Cuckoo's Calling all weekend. I'm not sure if I'm going to finish reading it or not.

I read this not too long ago, and was also not impressed with it. It sounded really good, like it'd be a nice light fluffy read, and then it kind of sucked.

We had a crazy busy weekend so no reading. I did start The Indigo Spell this morning though.

I am reading Flowers for Algernon, which I remember reading in high school but didn't really remember the much beyond the premise. I am almost done with it.

I finished reading The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight (really liked it) and started reading Gameboard of the Gods by Richelle Mead and am really liking it although it's very strange.

I'm so glad you're starting TFiOS!

I finished Bittersweet by Sarah Ockler on Friday. Haven't touched a book since, but Taken by Erin Bowman is up next.

I didn't get very much reading done. I only read a couple chapters in Song of the River

Not much reading got done. I am still working on the new kate daniels and am just over half way through it.

I finished On My Honor and Hoot and started The Clique and The King's Fifth

DH worked all weekend so I had no down time.  I only finished Winter Witch by Paula Brackston and that was because it was an audiobook and I couldn't sleep Friday night so I plugged myself into my iPod.

I need to finish The Sea of Tranquility because it's due back at the library tomorrow.

Sad.  Perhaps I will remove it from my to-read list.

IMO, it was bad.  I understand why you ignored it.

That book had so much creepy in it compared to her other books. But it's also really good. How are you feeling about it so far?

I read a chunk of Vengeance in Death by JD Robb. It's #6 in the series. I wanted to start and finish it this weekend but was too busy.

I neglected reading all weekend. I'm still struggling through If I Stay. But, I just requested Ready Player One from the library, so that should be in tomorrow!

I got another hundred pages or so of Wise Man's Fear read, I'm really enjoying taking my time with this re-read!

@booknerd226 - I'm enjoying it, but it's definitely darker than I was expecting. Also, there are A LOT of characters for an NR novel. I'm wondering how they're all going to tie in to the story.

@Ashley T - I do remember there being a lot of characters. I think I kept getting them confused with each other or having to stop and figure out who that person was again.

I read a bunch in my Twinspiration book! Loving it, such great advice! I also started Finding Emma (the first in the "series" I started out of order for Book Club), I decided it can't hurt to pick it up, it sucks that it's backwards but ehh whatevs!

Yes! It want light and fluffy, it was just blah. I didn't care for most of the characters and thoroughly disliked the MC and her main love interest. Definitely not Dessen's best!

I started City of Bones over the weekend.  Only a couple of chapters in since I didn't have much time to actually sit down and read.

I'm trying not to fly through books like I used to, especially since I want to bring two or three books that I haven't read before with me to the cabin next week.

I started listening to Stories I Only Tell My Friends - I'm barely into it.  On an NBC recommendation, I read Keeping the Castle, which was fun and easy.
