CUPCAKES WAR READING CHALLENGE 2012 discussion

Let me know what you have finished reading or are going to read for the challenge so I can add it to our group's bookshelf! If you aren't interested in writing a review to share, just give it a rating of 5 stars the best to no stars that would be really bad!!!!

I finished reading The Alchemyst and Behind the Gates. :D

Thanks Melissa. I will add them to the list of books being read this month for the challenge! Don't forget to get your cupcake at the end of the month! Also, I have a chart on my blog and a bookmark that you can run off each month.

I finished The Witches and will be starting Out of the Wild.

Starting my next book tonight.


Out of the Wild

I read Anna Dressed in Blood, Kendare Blake and The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, Michelle Hodkin.

So, Jen, did you like it? Did you write a review? If so, I can post it on my blog.

I posted your reviews. Unfortunately, they won't appear until the beginning of February! I ran out of days in January to post all the reviews!!! Thanks for sharing!

Out of the Wild"

Have you finished it yet? I am reading "The Hunger Games" now. I really like it a lot.

I am about half way through it. I have been a bit tied up the last couple of nights, but I plan to finish it in the next couple of days. I really like this one too. I just got my copy of The Hunger Games in the mail the other day. I can't wait to read it!

I finished Out of the Wild. I am in love with these books! If you enjoy fairy tales these are must reads. I loved how unique it was too!

In February I am going to start The Time Traveler's Wife.

I am almost finished reading "Catching Fire". I have really enjoyed reading the YA books. My first for February is going to be "Outlander" by Diana Galbaldon.

If you have written a review, let me know and I will post it on my blog. It sounds like you enjoyed reading the YA books too!

I love the cover of this book Amy! I think that historical romance novels have some of the prettiest covers!!! Looks like a good one to read.

I finished Just Between Friends and Passions of the Ghost.

Jen,
Did you like The Lucky One? If you write a review, let me know and I will post it. Usually Nicholas Sparks' books make me cry!

I'm reading . Loving it!

Tearjerker!!!

I'm loving the Thorn Birds Brenda! I think you'll enjoy it.

I remember seeing the movie a long time ago. I liked the movie so I am looking forward to reading the book. I am still trying to finish Cutting for Stone by Sunday for my book group!!

I'm reading by Lisa Follett.

I just finished reading The Time Traveler's Wife. It was really good, but it is a bit hard to read, considering that he time travels so often. Still a great book. I hope to get in my second book before the end of the month.

Bridget Jone's Diary

That should be a good one. Looks funny. I decided to read as my next book for February

I've been meaning to read this one for a while. I don't know if it's anything like the movie, but I loved the movie.

This sounds interesting!

Jen wrote: "I am reading 50 Harbor Street by Debbie Macomber. It's another great one by her!"

I've never read any Debbie Macomber that I can remember. I need to give her a try. Looking forward to hearing what you think of this one.

Hey Guys,
I'm about halfway through with "The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake"

I never read that one. Are you enjoying it? I think I had it on a list at one point.

What an interesting title!

I just finished One True Love. It was what you'd expect the typical "romance novel" to be. Very graphic though! I've read a few romance novels in my day, but none as graphic as this one.
Now I'm reading , and still working on The Thorn Birds

I started on the Thorn Birds and then since I just finished a long book, I decided to read something a little shorter for now!

Brenda wrote: "I started on the Thorn Birds and then since I just finished a long book, I decided to read something a little shorter for now!"

I'm trying to read at least 50 pages of The Thorn Birds a day...we'll see how it goes.

I just finished "The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake" and I have a question for anyone who has read it...What happened with the brother? I was very confused!!!!

I never read that one. I hate when I read a book and it is confusing!!!

I finished Bluegrass State of Mind, and now I'm reading

Reading "The Cookbook Collector"....good story but too much computer technology info for me

Hi Lindy
You can add the picture of the book by clicking the words above the comment box that says " add book/ author" and then put in title of book and then when you hit post it will appear. I am going to put the one book I am reading now - . Make sure you hit the circle for cover and not the link circle. I hop this helps. Try it.
