Tell me what to read next

J and I got a Kindle Fire recently.  And I kind of love it.  It was our compromise since we weren't going to spend the money on an IPad, but we both wanted a tablet and a Kindle, so yeah.  ANYway.

I just finished reading The Help (yeah I know, behind the times here, but I have two little ones!) and then tonight finished Divergent (it was just "meh."  I'll read the next book in the series, but I wasn't hooked on it like I was with the Hunger Games).

So recommend something you've liked recently.  Fiction, nonfiction, whatever.  No Game of Thrones for me tho - I have the actual book - the first in the series - and I just cannot get into it.  What else ya got?

Re: Tell me what to read next

  • The best books I've read lately are the Rachel Cohn/David Levithian ones - Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist was good, but the other two - Dash & Lily's Book of Dares and Naomi & Ely's No Kiss List were so, so cute. Nothing life changing or anything, but really cute, easy to stop & start again books.

    I also like the House of Night Series. 

    I'm currently reading the Fallen series, but I really don't like it.

  • Once I get through Catching Fire &  Mockingjay, I am going to order the Fifty Shades of Gray series. It's a 3-part series. Came highly recommended by my bff. That's all I've got at this point. Can't wait to be on the cruise ship in a month so I can do some serious reading!

  • I loved Fifty Shades of Grey. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I couldn't put the thing down! It get's a bit explicit, but hey.. it is what it is. Keep in mind that it's under "romance" but it's not the regular kind of romance with flowers and craap. I need to order the other 2, because book 1 leaves you hanging. You're kinda like.. "uh, what next?!?"
  • I want to read the Jaycee Duggard book next.
  • I have the original PDF of the Shades of Grey books (it was originally a twilight fan-fic, which I didn't know but LOL'd when I started reading it).  I read a sample of the first book and it's identical, save for the name changes and some editing to make the reading smoother.  I contemplated buying the books because of this, but haven't decided yet... dunno if I wanna spend $30 when I have it for free... but it IS hard for me to get past reading the names Bella and Edward etc etc and not picture the annoying twilight characters.  Boo.

    I had no clue! I never got into the Twilight novels, mainly because of the $hit grammar and sparkling vampires. Funny how she turned a vampire story into a BDSM novel LOL

  • I have the mobi files of all three of the Fifty Shades of Grey series if you want them. Also HIGHLY recommend Delirium and Pandemonium - SO GOOD! I also read "Room" recently which was good about a boy who has only ever lived in one room with his mom, or "Escape" by Carolyn Jessup who escaped from the FLDS.

     Message me on FB with your email if you want the fifty shades files!
