Confessions of a Shopaholic, Winter, Zipped, and I'm sort of skimming Deep, which I've already read but have to finish a book report on.

Shopaholic: Fabulous, fabulous! So I'm only on page 35, but it is turning out really cool and great so far.

Zipped: Not sure if I'm going to continue reading it. It's one of those books you can't even be sure if you like, but you keep reading it anyways.

Winter: This book is turning out to be really quick to read, it's thin and with really large type and the writing style is turning out to be simple. I also have no idea where the plot is leading o.O And again, one of those books you can't even be sure that you like.

Deep: Great book. Although the joining of the two main characters (the book is told from alternating points of view, back and forth between them) doesn't happen until the last 50 pages, I still found it a quite interesting read. Far-fetched, perhaps, but so what?

And yes, I read several books at a time :P

Acorna's Children: First Warning

I've just started it, but so far it's really good. Latest in the Acorna series, which is one of my favorites. And it's about Khorii, Acorna's daughter, who I wanted there to be a book about. And now there is. makes me happy.

I'm reading Eats, Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation. It's amazing. I'm in love. It's bound to start a revolution of sorts.

I loved that book <3
It was amazing. Absolutely. It's surprising that a book about punctuation, of all things, could be so good, but it is. It is marvelous.

I have to read 'Dancing on My Grave' for a college class. It's not really suspenceful, infact it goes a little slow for my tastes. Has anyone else read it?

I'm so glad that it's not just me that thinks that way!

Is that by the same author who wrote "Talk to the Hand" ?

I just finished The Perks of Being a Wallflower around ten minutes ago. Anyone, old or young (well. Not too young. It does deal with several mature topics) needs to read it. It's not like a regular book. It's just... shockingly different. Very hard to describe, but you should read it.

The Pearl by John Steinbeck.
For english class. Ugh.

I'm currently rereading The Wildflowers Miniseries by VC Andrews. Actualy, to be more specific, I'm reading Misty, but I got it all in the same book. I've read it before, as well as the full-length novel. For some reason I remember the base plot and random scenes from Into The Garden (the full-length novel) but I haven't a clue what happens in the mini-books that come before it.

I read that in 8th grade, I thought it was a really excellent novel even though it was really sad.
