ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy reading the new books you got this week Danya! Happy Reading!! :)
I've heard Liar Society is really good! And I JUST finished XVI and loved it -- though the ending was kind of abrupt O_O Can't wait to see what you think!

Great books! XVI looks like it has an interesting concept and I'm heard some food things about it :)
ReplyDeleteYou are the second blogger I've discovered reading XVI. What is it about? I haven't read anything about it yet.

The Liar Society & Emily and Einstein both look good - I've been wanting to read them.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
I can't wait to get a copy of the Liar Society- I've heard nothing but great stuff about it! I hope Warped and XVI are good too... they're all on my Debut Author Challenge list which I really need to get started on. Great stack this week!
ReplyDeleteWe both got Warped this week! :D Hopefully it turns out to be a good read. I'll be looking forward to your thoughts on The Liar Society; I've been thinking of getting it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, Danya!
I just finished 'The Liar Society' -- it was quite good!! Very interesting and plot twisty.
ReplyDeleteI'm picking up 'Warped' from the library soon, as well. Hopefully we both enjoy it.
I'll be interested to see what you think of 'Grace' ... I enjoyed it, but it was definitely different.
Loved Grace and XVI. I haven't read the other three yet, so I'll be looking forward to you reviews.
ReplyDeleteCAN'T WAIT O SEE WHAT YOU THINK OF gRACE! I wish my library had it, haha. I'm thinking of purchasing a copy at some point...
ReplyDeleteHey Danya, I left a comment on my blog regarding the question you asked about Carrie Ryan's Forest of Hands and Teeth novels but I thought I'd explain here...
ReplyDeleteI would say that the novels are zombie dystopian because it's set in a futuristic world where zombies have sort of taken over everything and humans live in small, highly fortified settlements in an attempt to keep them out. They're a lot darker than some of the other zombie novels I've read and the author really puts her characters through the ringer. Like as soon as you gain hope that something good is going to happen, she grabs the rug out from right you sort of thing. I'm depressed and anxious half the time I'm reading because I'm so nervous for them...
I wasn't much of a fan of the first novel but the second novel was a lot better when it moved forward a whole bunch of years and switched to a different character... one I liked a bit more...
I'm just a bit hesitant to actually recommend the books since you said you're not particularly fond of zombies. But if you borrowed it from the library, it's free, right? So either way, there would be no harm in trying them... -.-
Oh, I had to return Grace b/c I didn't read it in time (oh, and non creepily, *high five* FVRL) but I'm definitely requesting it again xD Happy reading! I've heard tons of grat things about The Liar Society!
ReplyDeleteI have The Liar Society too! I just wrote my review for Warped. I was so hoping it would be *that* book for me, but it wasn't. I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts on it.
ReplyDeleteI reviewed XVI recently. And I liked it a lot. Would love to know your thoughts, Danya.
ReplyDeleteI recently reviewed Emily and Einstein .. it's a pretty cute read! XVI is definitely on my to-buy list ... hope you love it! Enjoy the reads!
