Cinder by Marissa Meyer

This book was awesome!  It took me a while to read it but only because I've been super busy.  When I was finally able to sit and read it, I think it took about 8 hours total so really, that's not too shabby for an almost 400 page book!  I really enjoyed this book!  Am I mad that it's a series of four and I have to wait for the next one cause the book kind of just ended?  YES!!!  But at least I have so many other series that come out at various points during the year, the next book will be out before I know it!!!  Check out the Synopsis and Reviews below!

Happy Reading! :)

Starters by Lissa Price

On the negative side, this is not a stand alone book and yet another series that I have to wait for the next book to come out...on the plus side, it is only a 2 book story and the final book comes out in December so at least I dont have to wait THAT long!!!  This book was awesome.  As I was reading, the climax kept growing and growing and growing...nonstop!  I can't wait to see what Lissa Price does with the rest of the story!!!  I like this story so much that if I try to write what it's about, I will give something away, so check out the Synopsis and Reviews below!!!

SYNOPSIS:
"HER WORLD IS CHANGED FOREVER

Callie lost her parents when the Spore Wars wiped out everyone between the ages of twenty and sixty. She and her little brother, Tyler, go on the run, living as squatters with their friend Michael and fighting off renegades who would kill them for a cookie. Callie's only hope is Prime Destinations, a disturbing place in Beverly Hills run by a mysterious figure known as the Old Man.

He hires teens to rent their bodies to Enders—seniors who want to be young again. Callie, desperate for the money that will keep her, Tyler, and Michael alive, agrees to be a donor. But the neurochip they place in Callie's head malfunctions and she wakes up in the life of her renter, living in her mansion, driving her cars, and going out with a senator's grandson. It feels almost like a fairy tale, until Callie discovers that her renter intends to do more than party—and that Prime Destinations' plans are more evil than Callie could ever have imagined. . . " -goodreads.com

Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver

My God!!!  What a fabulous sequel to Delirium!!!  I mean, it took me a little while to get into it since I read Delirium so long ago and I was only reading on my lunch break, so it took some time to finally get going for me...but once it did?  I finished this bad boy in like 3 hours!!!  I love love love this book!  I really am upset that I have to wait til next year for the final installment in this trilogy, however as long as it ends well, I'm sure the wait will be worth it!

I'm not one for giving away crucial points of a book so I dont want to say anymore than it was great and you should read it!!!  For a Synopsis and Reviews, check below!!!

SYNOPSIS:

"I’m pushing aside the memory of my nightmare,
pushing aside thoughts of Alex,
pushing aside thoughts of Hana and my old school,
push,
push,
push,
like Raven taught me to do.
The old life is dead.
But the old Lena is dead too.
I buried her.
I left her beyond a fence,
behind a wall of smoke and flame.
Lauren Oliver delivers an electrifying follow-up to her acclaimed New York Times bestseller, Delirium. This riveting, brilliant novel crackles with the fire of fierce defiance, forbidden romance, and the sparks of a revolution about to ignite."-goodreads.com

Dead to You

Lisa McMann is definitely one of my favorite authors!!!  I have read everything she has written except for one which I have every intention on reading.  This book was a little different from what she normally writes but I enjoyed it all the same.  The first paragraph drags you in and nothing is what you expect it to be!  Check out the synopsis and reviews below!!!


SYNOPSIS: 
"Ethan was abducted from his front yard when he was just seven years old. Now, at sixteen, he has returned to his family. It's a miracle... at first. Then the tensions start to build. His reintroduction to his old life isn't going smoothly, and his family is tearing apart all over again. If only Ethan could remember something, anything, about his life before, he'd be able to put the pieces back together. But there's something that's keeping his memory blocked. Something unspeakable"- goodreads
