That's ok; I got the inbox message too late. Thanks a ton! =)

I looked at Irene's shelf and I chose to read The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
Irene rated it 1 star
I rated it 5 stars (date read: 7-8 May 2016)

Ah! That's so interesting that your reviews were so different! I wonder why?

I looked at Abby's shelf,

I choose pride and prejudice- she rated it 4 stars.

My rating TBD

From Grace's shelf, I read The Devil You Know. She rated it 3 stars, and I gave it the same. I thought it was pretty well written, but not exceptional. It was exciting enough that I read the whole thing in a day though, so that was fun.

I have had to change my book as I cannot get it online or from any of the stores or libraries in town. I have now chosen Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry. Joycedale rated it 4 stars, and I will update soon.

I'm still deciding on a book! :) I haven't forgotten :)

Ah! ..."

I don't know.
I chose to read this book because I had watched the movie and really enjoyed it, so I was surprised to see Irene only rated it 1 star.
In the end I also liked reading Charlie's story... who knows, maybe it was just the type of book I needed at that time.

I didn't really like Tessa and it was an ok story.

Reminder that this is ending soon! Don't forget to sign up for the June CCC!

Did you end up reading a book? Let me know so I can give you a complete towards a prize (:

Pushing the Limits
I chose Katie Mcgarry's novel Pushing the Limits. Joycedale rated it 4 stars
I gave it 5 stars
I was extremely impressed with the novel and loved the characters.

I read The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Iulia rated it 4 stars, I rated it 3. I liked it, but it didn't hold my attention the way I was expecting it to.

I chose Hollow City from Kendyl's shelf. I got this book months ago as a birthday gift and for some reason never read it, but I'm really glad I did now! I give it 4 stars :) Also, sorry I didn't post this sooner, I just started my first job and it's taking me a bit to get used this new schedule haha

I'm so glad you all participated in this challenge! "completes" for this thread have been updated! Message me if you're curious about your standing on earning a prize!
