A Pocket Guide to the Stars and Planets by Duncan John

[winb83]

i'm reading The Hunger Games and Breaking Dawn and about to start Battle Royale

The Hunger Games is about a tournament kids are forced to fight in held in a post-apocalyptic United States.

Breaking Dawn is the last of the Twilight Series. at this point i'm reading it because i read the other books in the series but i'm not really feeling it. too much bullshyt and romance and not enough action.

Battle Royale like The Hunger Games is a tournament youth are forced to fight in but in that one they wear explosive collars that blow them up when they break any rules and they're trapped on an Island.

Just finished "The Road" it's pretty damn good. kind of makes their lives seem hopeless towards the end but it's worth it.

[Libra Lady]

I am currently reading, My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.

[winb83]

continuing with the theme i got going right now from Twilight i'm reading the House of Night series and am like half way through book 4. less action than even Twilight had and just like Twilight it also has a sh1tty main character but some of the other characters like the villain and the rival type character make it interesting.
