    *waves her hand franticly* me, me, me, me

    Im currently reading Eclipse and I really really like it though my feelings for Jacob are getting more and more agressive whenever he is around. I so cant stand the guy.

    I really like her style and most of the characters. not so much the action but its thrilling if nothing else. and it is funny too. usually at surprising moments

    I better stop now while I can

    I read the Twilight series too. I love those books so much. They are on the top of the list, right under the Harry Potter series. This summer i have 4 books that I have to read for school. So far I have read one and a half. i had to but all of the books. But we went camping and I kind of lost one of the books. So now I have to buy another one.

    I don't like Jacob anymore. I used to like him, but my feelings have changed about him too.

    I have also just finished the Uglies series. Has anyone read those books?

    I've been reading a shitload recently for a combination of reasons.

    No Other Option by Marcus Wynne: I'm a huge military/spy thriller fan and this combined military and crime. Unlike other thrillers like it, this book really explored the psychology of people on a special ops team. The characters were detailed and well written. The final confrontation just blew me away as the way they two people talked and acted was so real.

    Next up was Unnatural Causes by Thomas Noguchi. A mystery as opposed to a thriller and it was a nice break. The book was an easy yet interesting read. The characters were somewhat one dimensional yet the whodunit part of the book was a good mental exercise and I was somewhat surprised.

    Minor spoilers for later books in Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp series.

    Act of Treason by Vince Flynn. Another amazing book by Vince. This book went into what happened to Mitch after his wife died. His comeback was not unexpected and you can still feel his pain. I couldn't believe the end.



    Major Spoilers







    I can't believe Kennedy actually killed a person herself and in the Oval office to boot.





    End of Spoilers

    I'm currently coming to the end of "Scaredy Cat" by Mark Billingham. It is a very good book, which I highly recommend to all crime-fiction fans. It's only the second book of his that I have read, (the first being "Sleepyhead" - another very good book), but he is already one of my favourite authors.

    I'm reading The Vampire's Betrayal by Raven Hart for the seventh time. I swear, these books are addictive. And they are not typical vampire chicklit. Despite the title and cover art, there's really no romance at all in them. Don't believe me, check 'em out.

    1)The Vampire's Seduction
    2)The Vampire's Secret
    3)The Vampire's Kiss
    4)The Vampire's Betrayal

    All awesome, all worth it.

    I just finished the second book of the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. I'm onto the third book. I love this series so much. I've already preordered the fourth book and I'm going to a party at the bookstore I preordered it from! I'm so excited for the fourth book. I also starteed a social group on this forum if anyone is interested.

    I'm reading Christiane F. We, Children from Bahnhof Zoo for, like, the fifth time. i'm not sure if there is an english version, but there was a movie filmed, easy to download. It's an autobiography of the most famous drug addict of all time, and probably my favorite book ever.

    i'm also in the middle of Angels and Demons by Dan Brown.

    I am reading John Fowles , The Collector. I've read 5 or so pages of the book, and then I saw an episode of Criminal Minds where an unsub was using passages from that book as a signature, suddenly my interest for the book expanded :D I am also trying to read Ken Follet "Pillars of the Earth"

    I'm reading Marina by Carlos Ruiz Zafón, the same author of The Shadow of the Wind, his new novel The Angel's Game has been released recently but this is a previous one. It's about a teenager who disappeared for a week and the odd events that happened during that time.
