Ally Carter is amazing.  If you've ever read Gallagher Girls, she wrote a crossover of the two series.  It's available as a free Kindle book.

I just got GENUIS WARS by Catherine Jinks and two book I didn't know existed!: Crispen--The Edge of the World as well as Crispen--The end of time! And I'm ALSO reading The Underland Chronicles by Your Humble Author of the Hunger Games Suzane Collins. I'm on book 2. And I'm reading book 3 in the ARCHVILLAN series--my first book this year with a 2013 copyright date! (Okay, that's maybe more than I needed to mention.)

They're AWESOME! (Okay, maybe not quite as good as the first, but I'm waitimg for the third one to be better than the second--it's called THE END OF TIME. Frankly, I'm a little afraid to read it.) I just got the 2nd yesterday and I'm a bit more than half through.

I just finished Bunheads by Sophie Flack. Now I'm reading Stowaway by Karen Hesse. Next I need to read The Cup and The Crown by Diane Stanley, and Under Wildwood by Colin Meloy.

Days of Blood and Starlight. Sequel to Daughter of Smoke and Bone.

Currently I have no opinion on its good-or-bad-ness.

Ooh! Also you should read the Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater. She's one of my favorite authors at the moment.

Okay, again, still in the middle of a dozen things.

The Hobbit,  White Fang,  The Unwanteds, Eragon, Redwall, and Artemis Fowl. 

Also people, has anyone read The Girl Who Could Fly? If not, you should. It's like an X-men/Little House on the Prairie mix. Very good! Does anyone know if there's a sequel out or one coming out?

Across the Universe by Beth Revis.  A-MAZ-ING.  Read it now.  Or later.  It depends.

Spamster in his spamster cage says rpgh.  We should totally have an Across the Universe RP.

Okay, yes, I'm in the middle of a dozen, but I just got a new book called; Or Give Me Death. Which, yes, is part of the famous Patrick Henry quote; "I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" It's a book about the insight of the Henry family. It's historical fiction. It looks really good. It's by Ann Rinaldi. Anyone else read this book or a book by the author?

I finished Crispen 2 & 3 and Golden and Gray book one. (Don't even ask about that one.)

I still need to finished Artimis Fowl, which I'm in the middle of, and I really should get back to Genius Wars.

On impulse, I started reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson.  Without any thought to the lines I should be memorizing or the fact that I'm reading Stardust or anything else.
