As I have stated before on The Classy Bookshelf, I enjoy, no, LOVE, a good series book. Heck, I enjoy a bad series book. (See: Sweet Valley High in my middle school years)
I have been on quite a reading kick lately. Despite the fact that I haven't been paying for books lately (GO ME!! Go public library!), I have still managed to find some decent books to check out and devour on my kindle.
First up, somebody mentioned a million years ago that they had started reading this series. I hadn't a clue what it was about... but now that I know, it's totally up my alley.
The Gallagher Girls' series is a book about young female spies and their top-secret all-girls spy school. It's totally adorable, and yes, young-adult but I'm into it. They are quick, easy reads. Perfect for the pool!
Next up, the Fallen series by Lauren Kate.
These books could be considered science-fiction. It's about fallen angels, demons, and magical powers. I know it sounds cheesy, but there's a love story woven in and it's very compelling. After adjusting to the mythical element, I flew through these books. The fourth book is soon-to-be-released and I found out Disney has purchased the rights to all four books. Yes please!!
Next up... I've got the 50 Shades books ready to go as well as Insurgent. I can't believe I haven't ditched my current book to read that one, actually.
Soo... what are you reading this week??
The Red Queen by Phillipa Gregory. She's an amazing writer :)
ReplyDeleteI am reading The Fault in Our Stars by John Green (tearjerker!).
ReplyDeleteI cannot WAIT to see your tweets/comments when you start reading Fifty Shades...
I can't wait to read Insurgent! I had to finish the 50 Shades books first (didn't love them) but now I'm ready to start. I'm also waiting on a book called Flagrant Conduct to arrive from the library. (It's about the landmark Lawrence v. Texas Supreme Court case.)
ReplyDeleteI am trying to read the first 50 Shades book. Not sure if I like it yet. LOL
ReplyDeleteI don't get a lot of time to read these days, so I take my time in 15 minute increments. :)
The Fallen series looks right up my alley! I love science fiction and fantasy books!
ReplyDeleteI love you and your trashy reads. No seriously, I do...
ReplyDeleteJust finished the last book in "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" series...so, so, good. And different from what I usually read.
ReplyDeleteUp next...50 Shades and "The Fault in Our Stars" by John Greene (sp? Green?)
Thank you for the book suggestions! I'm such a sucker for Young Adult books these days.
