Book Club Monday
Re: Book Club Monday
I finally finished Alexandria this weekend. It was a good story, but there was just too much of it. I know that sounds odd, but it got boring in a lot of spots because it was too detailed or just a completely unnecessary side story.
I'm still reading The Trouble With Charlie. It's good but I have a hard time reading anything with a ghost in it. This book is not meant to be scary, but even Casper makes me look over my shoulder. I just have to plan reading it for when DH is around so I'm not worried about walking into a dark room.
I get to start something new today! I'm really excited about that, just don't know what I'm going to start yet. I have a a lot on my kindle.
I finished ANAGRAMS by Lorrie Moore this weekend. It was the kind of thing I could tell was really good, but I can't say I enjoyed it. I just never got in to it.
Next up is THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS.
I finished A Wrinkle in Time this weekend and I think that it was better when I was a kid and reading it than now.
I started reading The Silver Linings Playbook. I am only a chapter in and I like it so far.
Almost done Lover Revealed - JD Ward. Then onto Hopeless - Colleen Hoover, since is highly recommended on NBC. Can't wait!
Almost done listening to Ender's Shadow - Orsen Scott Card. Loving the different POV of Ender's Games. Then I'm listening to Requiem - Lauren Oliver Book #3 for Deliruim. I was eh about the second book, so I don't have high expectations.
I lent Requiem to a coworker. This is how she returned it:
i am so excited that you're starting hopeless!!! I can't wait to hear what you think
i seriously couldn't put it down. I was walking around the apartment and running into things because i was still reading! Haha
I finished The Unchangeable Spots of Leopards By Kristopher Jansma this weekend, it was pretty good. I wasn't in love with the narrator, he was a bit hard to follow at times, but the story was good.
I am about half way through Insurgent by Veronica Roth right now. I kind of wish I would have waited until fall to start because I know I will want to go right into the third. Such a FWP...
Seipel - I heard that too! Like I said, I was disappointed in the second book, but I can't not finish. I'll probably watch TV Show.
xxJen - I laugh everytime I see your updates on goodreads and it's another R&I book! I KNOW, I actually bought Hopeless because of all the people obsessed with it on NBC. I never buy books, but it wasn't in the library and I felt like I NEED to read this. Is it going to suck me in like Beautiful Disaster? That was a book binge for me!
Will - 176 more days until Alligiant!!!!
The TV show sounds strange. From what I've read the pilot is supposed to be the entire first book. Also there is supposed to be a Hannah/Julian love interest, because they are supposed to be neighbors in the TV series. I don't know how I feel about it but I'll definitely watch a few episodes and give it a chance.
Also, can't wait for Allegaint! I've been reading (stalking) updates on the movie. I saw pictures from the knife throwing scene!!!
Ha! I haven't read this series, but this made me laugh out loud.
xxJen - OK, I'll prepare for book binge. I have like 50 more pages of Lover Revealed. I really want to get Walking Disaster soon too, but my goal is to start A Dance with Dragons (Game of Thrones) this month so I can finish a darn series, or at least the books that are out!
Yes, Tris is blonde, but I saw pictures of Shailene with blond-ish hair. I think she highlighted it a bit. Ive never seen her in anything other than The Secret Life either. The acting was just terrible all the way around in that show!! I haven't seen it, but I guess she was really good in The Decendants. I have really high expectations for the movies because I love this series sooooo much!! If this movie sucks I might cry.
