Crazy for Young Adult Books discussion

Feel free to join Trisha and I as we read this book.

I'm in! I thought i signed up a LONG time ago. LOL

okay, I'm a little behind...lol
but I'm still really hoping to start this one tomorrow!

looks like we have 25 chapters total - I plan to come back every 5

I'll start this later today, after I finish a few books :)

Sounds good and if I don't start today then I will tomorrow.

Ditto what Hannah said. LOL

6 chapters

ugh...I hate storylines where the girl tells a guy to get lost and to go away and he thinks that's "code" for "playing hard to get" and he just needs to be trying harder ugh lol

Jamie(view spoiler)[ I pretty much think she's a complete jerk. I can't find a single redeeming quality to her and can't, for the life of me, figure out why he would want to spend any time with her other than being "the first" the date her (hide spoiler)]

Ryan(view spoiler)[ ugh. I hate that he's just sure her "no" doesn't really mean no
even her parents were bullying her into dating "such a nice boy"
bleh. (hide spoiler)]

special(view spoiler)[ I can't really peg all her "special powers"
she can hear really far
and her hair is green and her eyes yellow
she has electricity (hide spoiler)]

I agree with you about guys thinking that, but I haven't started this one yet and hubby and I are going out to dinner, so I probably won't get to this until later.

no worries, lol
we're both playing catch up, just on different books!! :D

12 chapters

I'm glad(view spoiler)[ she's finally letting him in and he's helping her try to control her powers. I'm surprised her parents haven't tried to have her work on this already (hide spoiler)]

dad(view spoiler)[ he has mixed signals. make friends but don't have them be too good of friends. he's confusing (hide spoiler)]

Ryan(view spoiler)[ I find it completely disgusting that even his mom doesn't think he should take no for an answer
again, if a girl doesn't want him, he should just try harder. bleh (hide spoiler)]

I know. We're reading the same books but not in sync. Lol

Ch. 12

I am in 100% agreement with you! (view spoiler)[Not taking no for an answer can also transfer over to sexual things...no means maybe, not now, try harder and I'll probably say yes? Ugh!!! I am especially disgusted with his mom who thinks he shouldn't back off! (hide spoiler)]

Jamie (view spoiler)[You know me and I usually find something to like but this time I'm hard pressed to find anything to like about her too. (hide spoiler)]

Dad (view spoiler)[good point! He IS confusing with the mixed signals he gives. MANY people do that in real life and it's extremely confusing and difficult to know what they really think. (hide spoiler)]

I'm finally going to start this book. I was waiting for it to work with the family feud challenge.

Is that challenge in another group or did I miss something?

It's in another group. Trisha knows what I'm talking about.

Okay, I can't handle one group let alone 2. I've tried but not been successful. I do some challenges in our sister group.

lol I do know!

No worries, I hope you like this one!!

I wish this was good but it was not.


(view spoiler)[I get that Jamie had that secret but she was way to awful to everybody. Personally I didn't like anybody in the book. Which is why I just couldn't rate this book higher. (hide spoiler)]

OMG Yes! I agree Hannah(view spoiler)[ she was just awful! To everyone! I didn't like it much either (hide spoiler)]

sorry you didn't like it more :/

I usually rate everything a little higher and I barely decided to give it a 3. Guess maybe I should've gone with a 2. LOL
