Crazy for Young Adult Books discussion

Please join Kathy and I in this buddy read if you can!

Yay!! This looks like the edge of your seat kind of book!! I hope it's as good as the summary makes it sound. :)

it sounds REALLY good!! I can't wait!! :D

I know!! :)

Did you two purchase this one or will you get it from the library? I was thinking about joining you but it's $10.99 and at SOME point, I HAVE to use self-discipline about my book purchases! LOL

Library for me! Wow $10.99? That's kind of a lot! I hope you get to join us though, it might be another good one to discuss like at least I hope so !! :)

WOW! 10.99???? I got it from the library too LOL :)

Yeah, expensive, right?

Yeah! Jeez, it's cheaper to get the soft cover AND have it shipped to you!

just crazy!

I know, and I got several books today and most were more expensive but I considered it a Mothers Day gift to myself. Lol

yay!! What'd you get?? anything in my TBR pile?? :D

I think so, yes: Code Name Verity, Milan 2.0, Four Summers, Breathless, Failing You, and one more that I'm reading for our movie challenge. That one is a secret. Lol

ooooooooh what a good load of new books :D congrats.
I just got a gift card too (early bday present from my mom) and...I hve no idea what I'm going to spend it on! LOL! Probably some of our books that won't be out until June or july!

Ok, I'm in on this one too!

I just put this on hold at my library too. It is still $10.99 on AMazon and I won't pay that for an ebook! Yay Libraries!

I love the library!!! Call me biased if you want, just because I work there I don't care just the library is awesome!! lol :D

Glad you can join us Becky!! :)

Oh I am soooooooooooooooooo jealous. What a great job! :-)

It's the best!! The only thing better would be like an editor or something to where I can read all day and get paid! lol :)

ooooooooooooooooohhhh.....are we ready for this one tomorrow/?!?!!?!?

do we have a chapter goal or check in hope?

looks like we have 35 chapters + epilogue.

so 5 chapter style should work well, if we want to do that!

I am read, book is in my car waiting and I'm good to go. 5 chapter style is fine with me! :-) I'll check back before it starts, to see if it was changed for any reason.

Happy Reading!

Yep 5 chapters sounds good to me! :)

I have started but have been running kids around so will get back to it in a few minutes.

Well I am done through Chapter 6. I like it so far, but I feel so sorry for Jane. (view spoiler)[ I can't believe all she's had to go through and deal with. And coming from a long line of family members who have committed suicide! YOUZA! I am so blessed that I have never been that low, ever. I know ppl who have been tho. It's miserable to feel the world would be better off without you! I can not imagine planning my own death :-( (hide spoiler)]

Will be interesting to see how the plane ride goes!

Through 10 chapters now......

lol I'm so sorry Becky. I'm being a horrible reading buddy! LOL
I'm helping my girls clean the house and working on a craft for my girl scout troop.

then off to a bike ride and then I am definitely getting through 5 chapters! I'll be back here in a few hours with an update! I will catch up though, and click your spoilers :D

My motto is Family Comes First! just post when u can!

I am through chapter 19. I don't want to get too far ahead, lol, but I need to post some thoughts before i forget what i read when, lol!

First of all, I REALLY like the way this author writes. It's a good balance of description and plot. Really like the story so far.

(view spoiler)[ I can't imagine being in a plane crash! And the irony of that Jane trying to committ suicide in that bathroom is actually what SAVED her is killing me. THANK GOD the other survivor is a climber with a bunch of good climbing gear and warm clothes.

I have to say they are in a huge predicament getting to a point where they can be resuced tho. ACK.

Wondering what will happen and if both of them can survive long enough to be rescued! (hide spoiler)]

WOW. Will be interested in your comments, everyone!

Happy Reading!

Well I just don't understand (view spoiler)[ Paul. He can be so nice, then he just turns into a major jerk in the drop of a snow flake. Wonder where this is going and which personality is the "real" Paul. (hide spoiler)]

Oh I'm so worried!!!

(view spoiler)[ SOB!!!!! (hide spoiler)]

wow, first 5 chapters really start with a BANG! Wow!

I know, her intro to us is pretty sad :(

10 chapters in / Part II

holy moly....so lol I must confess. I do not like flying. don't like it, I don't fly well and I stay heavily medicated the whole time.

ugh, this flight would TERRIFY ME! WOW!

Yes, this book did NOT make me want to fly ever again. I do wish at the end they might have said if they discovered exactly WHAT made the plane crash... I am a slave to details, lol.

lol I really am going to get back to reading this

I'm kind of enjoying my glow of completing challenges

I know it's silly, but the name one took me forever! LOL!

oh, did you have time next month to schedule for a buddy read?

Next month... Probably can squeeze it in, lolololol! Can you wait til sometime between the 21st and the 28th? I have reads on both those days but i'm free in between there! If not let me know and I'll see what I can come up with, lol!

oh yeah! pretty open during that time!

how's 6/23?

I would like to join you reading this on 6/23 too :o)

sounds perfect! I'll add it to my calendar. :-)

OMG!! Okay, so just finished chapter 15

she just (view spoiler)[ got him out of the tree and he made the joke about her pulling like a donkey! LOL! (hide spoiler)]

OMG that was another intense 5 chapters But I love that she's giving us some of the wise words of her doctors and her mom. These words are coming back to have meaning, and it's interesting to see them inspire her!

wow, this is so good so far, it's hard to put down!

okay....just finished chapter 20 (sorry,got distracted by family! LOL!)

wow, holy moly! Paul is so good for her but (view spoiler)[ he knows the sayings, right?! He knows certain phrases.

it makes me wonder what was going on with him just before he boarded this flight... (hide spoiler)]

this really is easy to read and sucks you in! I'll be done soon!

I have NEVER wanted to peak at the end of a book SO VERY BAD as I do right now.

I must know!!!! :( but I won't

almost done..................

Ok I just finished part 1 and I seriously want to keep reading, but I can't I need to read another book. I can tell this one is going to go fast, the chapters are short and I just want to keep reading!!!

I feel bad for Jane too, I can't imagine what that feels like nor do I want to and pray I never do!

wow....just wow.

how do you process this.....

I"m done. ready to talk when you are

OK just finished chapter 15 and oh my gosh!! That was....oh my gosh!! lol That was scary!! And then he goes and says that!! He's hilarious though!!

I do like that she is remembering the things her doctor and mother have told her, like they inspire her to not give up.

I have to put this down now. I'm really fighting myself, it's 1:30 am and I so tired, but I want soooo bad to keep reading. I'm sure I'll finish tomorrow, it will glued to my hands until I'm done!! Night all! :)

Looks like I missed a good one, huh? I guess I'll just have to read it on my own and then PM one of you or all of you with questions or comments.

Vicki, just post here whenever you read it! I get all my notifications, lol. Ill cone discuss with you!!!! :-)

Me too Vicki!! The pages are really flying too, I hope you get to read it!! :)

Ok just finished chapter 20

I totally feel like there is so divine intervention going on here, (view spoiler)[there is a reason she was meant to save him and now him to save her. Also like Becky was saying if she was in her seat she would be dead! How ironic and crazy is that? (hide spoiler)]

What did you think overall? I wasn't expecting what I got at all, BUT what I got was so much more that I was expecting. It was amazing. I loved it. I gave it 5*.


Kathy, if you feel divine intervention now, wait til you get to the end. Truly amazing!
