Holaaa!

Hey, everyone! I haven't posted here in a long time... wow! It feels like foreverrr. =)

I read INSANE AMOUNTS last week.

I started off by finishing How it Ends by Laura Weiss. I liked it, but I kind of wish it was a little better. The writing sometimes seemed a little choppy, but the story line was really good. =)

I then read Meridian by Amber Kizer which really sucked me in -- I had it finished the next day! It's very action filled and keeps you hanging until the very end. I believe I heard from someone that there is going to be a sequel and I cannot WAIT to read that.

After Meridian, I started Crank by Ellen Hopkins and had that finished that night. Crank is so disturbing, but it's SO GOOD and you can't put it down. I just started reading Ellen Hopkins this summer and let me tell you - if you haven't, please start soon. They're horrible to read, but you can't. put. them. down because they're amazing.

After Crank, I read Give Up the Ghost by Megan Crewe which is released in September. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but that's a good thing! After a little tiny bit of a slow start, it got rolling and I had it finished the day after I started it.

After that, I read The Chosen One by Carol Lynch Williams. This book is also quite disturbing, but it's really good. Polygamy is a very interesting topic, and this book is a wonderful example of a polygamy compound. I read and finished this in one day.

After The Chosen One I read Invisible Touch by Kelly Para. I was sucked in from the first chapter and was left wanting so much more at the end. =)

And now I'm reading Possessions by Nancy Holder, another September release. =) I'm about 150 pages in, and I'm hoping to finish it soon!

hope.

WOW! you certainly read a lot of books, didn't you?
That's nice, just as long as you enjoy them, rather than just skipping past them.
Great books, btw!

I loved The Chosen One too - definitely disturbing and hard to read at points - but an excellent story.

Crank was great--did you read the sequels?

Crank was great. You have to read the sequel Glass and the last book comes out next year.
