What book are you reading right now?

I'm reading the fablehaven series, 'tis good

I'm reading the harry potter series for like the a millionth time

I'm reading a book called Shadow tis a little juvenile for me. But it's still a good book!

I am reading, to my undying shame, The Kneebone Boy. It is way too young for me and it gives me a headache, but I need to work on my children's literature skills.

Also, Naomi, if you're reading the same Shadow I read a while back, don't bother. : P

so usually I spit an sneer at cheese teenager novels and like to read Lewis, G.K Chesterson, Tolkien, Thurogh....[]but[/i] I am reading a cheese teenager series and I. Can't. stop!

I love love love this series and have fallen in love with Jace and Will (if you have read this you know what I'm talking about) Sorry to explode in a fit of girly passion over these but the plot is electrifying.

It has to do with a race called shadow hunters (click here to read about what they are) and...as horrible and embarrassing this is..the book does deal with vampires and werewolves....I know! I know! They are sooooo over done and cheesy and stupid but that is not what the book is about it just deals with them....so yah...I love this series and hope yall do too.

(if you don't want to buy the books you can get the for free on your computer in something called a PDF file...just sayin.)

I love that series, but I've only read up to 3. I had no idea there were more in the series.

i like that series well enough. Got very, very close to barfing when I read Clockwork Angel and figured out that Will is basically Jace and Jem is basically a combination of Simon and Alec, though. SLOPPY CHARACTERIZATION. STOPPIT.

That said, I think she did well with settings. And the witty banter makes me want to squee over the fact that Hilari Bell's spirit lives on.

Witty banter is a beautiful thing non? And I think she likes the dark/conflicted/mysterious boys vs the comfortable, easy going, realistic boys

OBVIOUSLY, she does. XD
*ends the spam*

I'm reading the Da Vinci Code.
To be laconic about it: DON'T BOTHER.

I read it...meh. It was around if not below average. I love old stuff, archaeology and all that, but that book seemed to get distracted

You guys ever read The Hunger Games? Good stuff, man.

Why, yes, I have! And I didn't like them at all. Definitely not enough to join an RP site based around them. (And I was totally thinking of making that joke myself. Ha.)

Anyhoo, a fun young adult series is the Maximum Ride books by James Patterson. Also, if anyone wants a book that is so funny you get weird looks from people on the bus for laughing at your book, I suggest Nightlight, the Twilight parody. It's really short, but it's hilarious.

XD. I don't think I've read the Hunger Games before.

And I did look at Nightlight, even though I didn't get it. Me and my twin brother were laughing so hard at that.

Speaking of hunger games...Sasha I think your portrayer would make a good Peeta....but that is for a different thread *ends spam*

Nightlight was the most amazing book ever.

Right now I'm reading Avalon High, to my undying shame.

I just finished Much Ado About Nothing a few days ago, if I have to tell you who wrote it then I will cry....but I enjoyed the banter and such, now I'm reading Inferno, more to put of my required reading (Confessions), but I do like it...I've been trying to focus more on classics this summer

That's really awesome, Willow! I loved both those books so much.

Right now, I'm reading Dragonfly by Julia Golding. It's a political fantasy, with some very nice themes of fear of the unknown and prejudice against misunderstood cultures. I love it.

Or, I loved it when I first read it. Now the icy, unemotional priestess-princess and sport-loving, heart-on-his-sleeve prince remind me uncomfortably of Pythonhair and Warmaster...

i finished the hunger games series in a month and a half from book 1 to 3, thats how addicting it is

Currently reading The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff. Which is a dark fairy tale sorta thing. With lots of iron allergies and creepy Fae.

I'm reading The Help, it's for a mandatory book club at my school, but I like it!

I LOVE that book. And normally, I hate civil-rights-era fiction, but The Help is gorgeous.

Currently, I'm reading Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt. 362 pages of angst about Irish childhood and poverty? Yup. Worth it? Yet to be seen.

Romeo and Juliet :3

I'm re-reading the Hunger Games series. Gotta love them
