Starting this one tonight! It‘s the last book of the trilogy! I‘m hoping to finish this one before the week is done.

I‘m a little iffy about this book so far. The chapters are a decent length, the writing is pretty good, but the characters are a bit bland. The timeline is all over and I‘m unsure of why all this information is important... I guess we‘ll find out. I‘m determined to finish another one of my personally owned books!

OMG! This book, this trilogy, this world 🥰 It‘s well-written and interesting. I love the commentary at the end of the novel. The characters were developed well and each part of the story concluded in a way I am satisfied with. I had never read a book by Shusterman before but I‘m now hooked. 5⭐️

😂😂🤣🤣 I just had to chuckle at this section.
I‘m over halfway done with this novel, and although it‘s moving a bit slower than the second novel, I‘m still enjoying it!

This book was FANTASTIC! I loved the expansion of the world, it‘s post apocalyptic ideology, the detail and the character development. I love the chapter break commentary and the ending had me ready to read the final book soon after closing this book. 5/5 ⭐️

HELP! I just finished a book and I want to get to the books on my shelves. I‘m stuck between two. Comment below to give me your opinion!

Okay, I LOVED this one! I recently read a series by Sarina Bowen and was entranced by the characters. When I found this book at the public library, I didn‘t bother reading the synopsis. I snagged it right away! I was pleasantly surprised by the male/male romance and it was well written. I finished it in less than a day, and I‘m now sad there‘s not more!

I didn‘t enjoy this novel as much as the first book in the series. There were a lot of things going on in this plot line, characters popping in and out of pages of books without much explanation of how they got there. I was confused through half the book.

Hey everyone - I‘m back! I‘ve been kind of back and forth on how involved I want to be in my reading logs. I stopped doing book reviews on my blog. I can‘t ever seem to find the right words to describe how I felt about the book, or the writing itself. I want to keep track of my books read on something other than GR - but I‘m not super artsy either. Anyone have recs for a book journal they‘ve purchased or a template they‘ve used? HELP! Thank you :)

I met Katie this spring and although I had never read one of her books before, I‘m definitely on her lovey dovey complicated romance bandwagon. This is book 2 of hers that I‘ve read, and I‘m interested already!

This was a QUICK read! I finished it this morning and only started it after dinner last night. It was enjoyable and sweet, and definitely had me crying by the end.

Love love love! I seriously enjoyed this whole series and this was a great end to the love story of Gideon and Eva. I cried a little, loved it a lot. ❤️❤️

I couldn‘t keep going with it. After 150 pages I was still unsure of the rest of the book... maybe I‘ll pick it up again but right now I‘m not into it

Thank you Target ❤️ #harrypotter #bookmarks #magneticbookmarks #score

I‘m not really sure what I‘m thinking of this book yet. I‘m curious for a twist, but I‘m not a huge fan of the narrator...

I‘m in the middle of 4 books right now. One is an audio (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer‘s Stone)
1. Professional Development book #teacherlife
2. Reread of a series to finish the newest published book #Crossfire
3. YA book series that‘s on my classroom bookshelf that‘s been on my TBR #middlegradeteacher
4. Reread of HP because why not? #dumbledoresarmy

OMG. I loved his book until the last 3 pages. Seriously, still read it— but I need to read the second one so maybe I won‘t be so angry with it.

I also was able to meet Julie Murphy last night! She was so pleasant to visit with and I am seriously so excited to read these two books!
Tbh I haven‘t read anything by her yet, but I‘m excited to get to read them!
She‘s so funny and she said she writes about how people who are “fat” can still be people— they shouldn‘t avoid doing things because they aren‘t “model” material. I feel like I will relate to these characters completely. ❤️

I was so fortunate to meet Becky Albertalli last night! She came to MN for the Epic Reads Spring Tour to promote Leah on the Offbeat and I‘m fangirling still! She was so humble and kind! I‘m still reeling from the excitement!

I‘m working really hard to finish book series— and luckily this one has an audiobook! Book #2 of the Heroes of Olympus series!

I don‘t know what to say. I loved EVERYTHING about this book. I won‘t read the sequel right away because I‘ll be sad when I finish the books that are currently published. But it was an awesome book. I loved Rowan, I loved Citra. The conflicts in the novel were just enough without me absolutely hating parts of the book because of the villain. I enjoyed this futuristic concept and the whole book, cover to cover.

I bought my first BookBeau and I love it!! It fits most of my books- hardcover and paperback. And I got the cinnamon spice color, making it neutral and easy to spot in case I have a “where‘s my book?” moment. I‘m excited to take it out with me. All too often I get my pages bent in my purse/backpack or get some sort of sticky stuff or water from the table on my books. This should help!! #bookbeau #protectwhatyoulove #bookish #nerdalert

Enjoying my book before bed ❤️
I love the naked book cover! The Scythe engraving is awesome 😁

I finished the audiobook!! I honestly am loving this series so much! This was probably my favorite so far— but I‘m excited to keep going with Winter!

My book club is reading this one! I‘ve heard a lot of good things and so far, the first 50 pages are definitely meeting my expectations.

Book #3! I‘m about 25% done with it, listening to it on my Overdrive app. I‘m loving this series!

How many of you have started reading or have read this series? I seriously love Marissa Meyer as an author! #lunarchronicles #book3 #cress #audiobooks #overdriveapp

I‘ve heard mixed reviews about this one. I‘m hoping it‘s a good read!

Starting this one today!!!

So good!! I requested this book as soon as I read the synopsis of it. I love hearing LGBTQA stories and this was about a 19 year old who is a closeted asexual. It was very interesting and the characters were relatable and easy to be interested in. I was a little confused at times because it‘s written in 3rd person and there were a lot of pronouns. But overall a very good book!

Got my monthly book shipment!! The top two are from BOTM and the bottom two are from Book Case Club. I‘m super excited to be able to read these!

Not quite sure how I‘ll like this one. I love John Green but this title isn‘t one I‘ve been looking forward to. I‘m reading it for a #goodreadschallenge as a team read, but I‘m worried I won‘t like it enough to finish it.

Has anyone else read it and enjoyed it?

Book 2 of the series! I‘m loving this series so far. The way Meyer ties in both the first book and continuing on with a new character is fluid and easy to follow.

OMG. There‘s not enough I could say about this novel. I seriously loved it front to back. It‘s detailed but not slow. It‘s poetic but not difficult to understand. It‘s so different from books I always read but it was so enlightening. Starr is a wonderful character and the whole book was wonderfully written. I could keep going but I won‘t! It‘s definitely a book I‘ll recommend to others!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE ❤️❤️❤️

Wow. So deep. It was an awesome story to listen to— the narrators were nice to listen to and the plot was very unique and interesting to follow. The concept of death is heavy and to think about how people spend their last day.

Already loving it!!!

Ordered this from Scholastic Book Club at school. It‘s about George, a young person who is physically born male, but inside is meant to be female. She wants to try out for the school play-as Charlotte in Charlotte‘s Web. But, being recognized as a boy, she has difficulty. This seems like an easy read, but a heavy topic. I‘m excited to read it!

I am about halfway done. This book is so different from what I normally read. It‘s based on superheroes and Villains, which I don‘t normally look for— but it is SUPER good so far. The narrators are good and easy to follow. The characters have a lot of depth. I‘m loving it. #audiobook #progressupdate #renegades #meyer #superhero

I enjoyed this one. There was a lot of character depth and I really thought it was going to be a bland book, but I liked it. By the last 15 chapters (short chapters) there is a moment... just a #wtfplotTwist moment.
It was also a short audiobook. But that made it easier to want to keep going.

My app was acting funny today so I started a different audiobook on a different app. I‘m already over halfway done and I started this morning. I‘m sucked in. There‘s some mystery to it that I am enjoying.

I forgot to post about this one. I‘d say it was a 3.5/5
The beginning and the premise kept me interested but the last 50 pages was just eh. I‘ll read the 2nd book in hopes that it‘ll be better than the first.

5⭐️
OMG. This was a fun read. I like Meyer‘s writing and this was definitely a series I want to continue. I also had a prediction right towards the beginning of the book and felt pretty good that I was right. Excited for #2!

I‘m starting a new audiobook today! I found another library card-enabled app to listen to books called Axis360. I‘m guessing not a lot of people use it right now because I‘m finding all the new books available right away for checkout. I‘m on a Marissa Meyer kick right now, I think.

One of my reader friends saw that I was interested in reading the Court of Thorns and Roses series and she said “I have them, do you want them??”.... UHHHH YES! 😍🤓
When I stopped at her house, she also gave me Heartless and A Whole New World: A Twisted Tale. Thank goodness for reader friends. ❤️❤️

Audiobook!
I‘ve been waiting for this version for a while. I‘ve been told this series is really good. I‘m hoping I will be able to listen to things a bit more with some prep time during the day in addition to my driving.
I‘ll also be going to speech meets this season so any driving ride time=listening time!

This was a quick listen. I liked the characters and really want to continue this series. The ending of the novel was a good finish, something that led me to want more. The audiobook was a little strange because it randomly had background music and noises to go along with the scenes. It was just a little creepy.

“Anybody can look at you. It‘s quite rare to find someone who sees the same world you see.”

10 pages in and I‘m mesmerized by Green‘s words.

Audiobook! The premise is pretty interesting. I‘m about 1/4 of the way done— will probably finish some time this weekend. I‘m liking that the setting is different than other books I‘ve read. It changes things up a bit!

Very good! Hoping I can continue the trilogy soon! 4/5 ⭐️

Not too bad so far. This is an audiobook I‘ve been listening to on my drive. It‘s a different take on reincarnation and souls being destined for a certain path. The main character is a Newsoul, meaning she‘s the first incarnate of a soul that has not previously lived, which has never happened before.
It‘s very interesting!

900⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Seriously, if I could rate this past a normal rating, I would. It‘s been a long time since I‘ve truly been in love and emotional over characters. I LOVED this book. Eliza was who I wanted to be in high school and Wallace is a wonderful young man. It‘s a contemporary YA and I will now recommend this to anyone and everyone.
