Hey bookworms!

I was wondering what everyone is reading at the moment?
Post it on here ...

What do you think about it so far?
Have you read anything else by the same author?
Discuss the book with others that have read it.

If you're a huge book fan, then I suggest you check out the book website I use:
Bookarmy
It full of bookworms from all over the world, who rate and review each book they read so that you get a better idea of the best books around. It's amazing! And there are competitions that you can win yourself a bunch of books too!!
Also click the pictures for the Cover 2 Cover book club guild.

I'm just loving book chats at the moment 3nodding


 
     
 
I just finished reading Angels by Marian Keyes last night, and I LOVED it.
It was a really nice, easy read.

I moved on to reading 'Before I Die' by Jenny Downham, straight afterwards - and it's really hard to get into the different writing style. I like it ... but it's hard to get into after I loved angels so much.
Has anyone else felt like that before?

Beige by Cecil Castellucci
I think it's really good, actually. Sort of has swear words, but whatever.
It takes place in Los Angeles, but the main character talks about Montreal a lot, since that's where she comes from, and I'm from Montreal too, so it's pretty cool (:
This is actually the first book I have read from this author. I just took this book out of my sister's bookshelf when she bought new books.

That sounds really cool! The book that I've just finished 'Angels' is set in LA as well, although I'm from Birmingham, UK. Which is pretty far away haha!

That sounds like a really cool book though, what's it about?
     
What's everyone else reading?

I'm reading Hunted by P.C. and Kristen Cast... its a really good book you should check out the first four... Marked, Betrayed, Chosed, Untamed... great story line.
     
I just finished reading Evernight by Claudia Grey,
and I thought it was okay. Not too good, but not
too bad. She could have worked so much better
with the characters and the plot, but I guess they
were good and I am looking forward to reading the
sequel, Stargazer.

But instead, I just began reading City of Bones by
Cassandra Clare. I just finished the first chapter,
and well it has some of my attention. Not too much,
though. But I've heard it's a good much so I will just
try it.
