Spike ,'The Killer In Me'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
I like that there are no books Buffistas don't have opinions about.
Consuela, one of the books I need to finish is A Brief History of Montmaray. I sort of feel like it might be a little jarring to go there after Gone Girl, but it is another possibility.
I have Book Thief on my Kindle and haven't read it. I read half of Skulduggery Pleasant and put it down and never finished it. And I haven't read Looking for Alaska, but enjoyed Fault in Our Stars. So, um...I say finish Montmaray? (I read that one but have the other two books in the series and haven't read those!)
I really loved the Montmaray novels: read them all twice over within one twelve-month period.
If that means anything.
I can't remember why I put down Montmaray in the first place, but I did love what I had read to that point. (Oh, I think a library book came in and then I forgot to go back. Books are so SHINY.)
I initially had a problem with the conceit of The Book Thief but ended up really liking it. I think it might be a good transition book from GG.
Alaska is my least favorite of the 3 John Green books I've read (not to say that it isn't good, just that I liked Paper Towns and Will Grayson better). It's not what one would call a very happy book. More "cathartic", perhaps. I have plans to pick up all the Skullduggery books when I'm in the UK, since there are some that aren't out yet in the US, so I think it's more an issue of "which are you in the mood for?"
Five hundred votes for The Book Thief.
I bought the Duane ebook bundle last year, too. I think there was one sort of fundraiser? Anyway, I haven't started them, partially because Mount Toberead is reaching Everest proportions and partially because I'm not sure about the order. Does anyone have a link to a series chronology, please?
SKULDUGGGERY!
But I am intending to read The Book Thief one of these days.
