Dateranoth Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Just finished Ender's Game and started Speaker for the Dead. Both by Orson Scott CardI'm surprised that I just now read Ender's Game. Would have been a great read when I was younger, but I still really enjoyed it.

Avahra Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 A book about some girls life with Progeria. It's really interesting but I can't help but wonder if she's still alive.edit: She is! She's 15, which is older than they expected her to live.

Avahra Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 This is without a doubt one of the best books I've read in a long time.It got me hooked with the prologue and begged me to not be put down.It's got a mix of horror, rock n roll and just good story story telling.After playing to dead rooms the local group Ragman starts to sky rocket to popularity., Their singer John, once a lousy off tune wreck is now delivering the best performances of his life. Except strange things start happening at their shows, lights go out, rooms go chill and people get violent. Really, violent.As the group rises to fame it's members start to find that with fame, there is a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sajam Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Working on World War Z, but I've slacking lately. After that I'm planning on reading Hitchhikers Guide, Hunger Games, and then I'll probably check out Ender's Game. Hopefully I get there by the end of the month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeKnuckle Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 HHG and Enders are fantastic. Do not tell anyone you're reading Enders, though. They'll eventually spoil it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avahra Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Read this in one night. (12 hours of baby sitting) It was okay. Story of a girl who is the descendant of the brothers Grimm and has to survive the fairy tells to break some ancient curse. The plot idea isn't half bad it's execution was a little shaky. It had a lot of grammar flaws and you could tell it was self published. The story was alright, if a little predictable. I'll probably read the sequel.

PeeKnuckle Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 The Spirit Master by Keisha KeenleysideStill reading this one. I am loving the story and the characters, but it's in need of serious editing. I run into sentences with repeated words (then I went then I went), terrible typos, or just atrocious spelling. So, I have to stop and try and make sense of the part I just read until it makes sense to me. If the book was bad, I would have deleted it long ago. Since it is good, I torture myself trying to force it to make more sense. I'm such a glutton.I run into this often with self published books.

LGWyant Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Never understood why this happens, its just sloppy writing. I know im not perfect, but I typically reread anything I write at least three times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsBadExample Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Reading New Cthulhu: The Recent Weird. Some really good stuff in there, and thank god no one's trying to emulate Lovecraft's actual writing style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
