I GOT SOME FICTION!!!!!!!!!

If you are my friend on  Goodreads (which you almost DEFINITELY are) you will know that I have been crying dying over a NEED FOR FICTION. And bloglings... I GOT SOME!!!!!!!! I went to the library and came back with an enormous amount of books. Absolutely enormous. only 10, but.... they are thick. Here goes nothing:

Yes, you may admire.

I got:
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
Partials by Dan Wells
Fragments by Dan Wells
The Ruins of Gorlan by John Flanagan
Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer
The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan
Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken 
Eldest by Christopher Paolini
Brisingr by Christopher Paolini
Inheritance by Christopher Paolini

I am extremely proud of this.

Currently Reading:

  I AM DYING, BLOGLINGS, I HAVE HEARD GREAT THINGS!!!!!!
Reading thanks to Meg's recommendation and Cait from The Notebook Sisters review here .  Go check out her blog, it is THE BEST, and check out her hilarious review!

Most Anticipating:

Partials by Dan Wells, and its sequel Fragments: 
I have  been recommended #1 three times exactly (smiles to my Goodreads friends) and naturally, I WANT TO READ!!!!!!!!

Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken 
This is the sequel to The Darkest Minds, which i absolutely adored, and i just want to hold the book and devour it and try not to cry...

The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan
I have loved Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series, and The Heroes of Olympus series, so I am highly anticipating his work on Egyptian mythology!   


Now, I most tell you a liiiitttllleee... about my non-fiction reads. I am very slowly working my way through

Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. *hits head on 900+ page book* OOOOWWWWW!!!!! Needless to say, I will not go around talking about this book *rubs head*

I also just finished these two non-fiction books:

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! I BURNT THE COOKIES!!!!!!!!! Um, yes...

Kon Tiki- 4.5 stars
Eats, Shoots & Leaves- 5 stars. 

On that strange note, and those burnt cookies, I will leave you. Have a good day!


Have you read any of these? What did you think? Which do you most want to read?
