A book recommendation (of sorts)

Aug 16, 2009 16:54

I have absolutely no idea if any of you have read the first two books in Lisa McMann's Wake/Fade/Gone trilogy. I read Wake last year and then Fade when it came out earlier this year, and I'm now eagerly awaiting Gone. If you haven't read them, you should; they are amazing! Basically they're about a girl called Janie who gets sucked into peoples' ( Read more... )

If you say they're good I will definately look for them, when I have time!

12 books? Oh, honey, I'm so proud of you! Smart girl, you are!

They are; you should! :)

IKR? And most of them were $4. For hardback books that should have been $17. And they were brand new, too. I don't question cheap books. I died and went to heaven when I found that book warehouse, only to do so again when I saw today's RK pictures. *squee*

This is the smile I'm having right now, since this afternoon... and I'm improvising little dances in my room...

Well, this sounds interesting just because I would love being in other people's dreams myself, lol. Okay, that's not the only reason; I could see myself liking that kind of storyline.

And my English books are killing me. I hate books that I'm forced to read, ha.

Oh, I know what you mean. They're actually really good books this year, but because I have to read them, I don't want to and I try to put it off. Oh well, only 2 to go. :|

Me too. I've only read 80 pages in four days when I should have read 160 (yes. I have a set amount that I read daily.)

How many books did you originally have?

shakeityourway August 17 2009, 01:17:35 UTC

LOL that's probably sensible, really. I told myself I'd get to page 200 today, and I'm not sure I even reached 100. I started at about 70. :|

I had 4 plus a book of poems (that I didn't include, although I'm still working my way through it). Officially, I've only made notes on one, because I read the other one around Christmas time and only kind of remember it, but can't be bothered to re-read it right now. (Tess of the D'Urbervilles - maybe you know how long it is?) I'll probably just look some stuff up on the internet.

How many have you got?
