Re: What are you currently reading?

Fang, ok I am gonna try Discount again... I am not going to punish a book just because I am in a reading funk! :smileyhappy: 

 

just finished: 

Once Dead, Twice Shy (Madison Avery Series #1)  

ok, like I said I am in a reading funk! I didn't like this one either. However, I am a Rachel Morgan fan thru and thru... I think that's what my problem was here. I expected that kind of writing and couldn't get away from the YA of this one. I did like the concept and I liked her sidekicks! :smileyhappy: I will continue the series and leave the Hollows to Rachel! 

 

I am currently reading

Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet  

this one should be a no brainer... Charley is a fave of mine!!!

HELP! I've fallen and can't reach my book!!!!

Railsea was AWESOME. Just an unforgettable book – kind of weird that they marketed it as a kid's book. It will blow away anyone who reads it, regardless of age...

Absolutely right! Too many categories and classifications – and, yes, the "kid" stamp most definitely affected sales of this book.

Discount Armageddon (InCryptid Series #1)  

Ok so I started reading this one again while I am waiting for Ever After to get here... I must say I am glad I listened and picked it up again.  I am definately hooked now. I don't know what did it, but a little before midway it got really interesting!  :smileywink:

The two main characters are developing more as well.

Re: What are you currently reading?

I picked this one up late Saturday night, and spent most of the day Sunday reading it.  At this moment I'm 1/2 way through!  LOL.  I am enjoying the troubles the characters are in here.  Feels like they are all hitting bottom. :smileywink:
