Kirsch 95 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan I NEED that book... >.< But I'm also hesitant on reading it, considering it's the last book. I shall remain ignorant and keep pretending No, it's not ending Hmm... I (re)read The False Prince a while back. I love that book so much Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raki 15 Report post Posted November 15, 2014 Was that for Lit. Circles? O.o No - I read Ashes of Roses for literature circles. Ties That Bind was my first choice but since I didn't get it I decided to read it on my own. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got Ties That Bind, and it was okay. The characters were really plain (and the prologue spoiled the ending...). Is Ashes of Roses good?I'm reading The People of Sparks. The theme is... Wow.

I thought Ties That Bind was pretty good - but it could have done better. Ashes of Roses was pretty good, too. Again, it could have done a bit better.

Moonlit Flower 12 Report post Posted November 20, 2014 I'm reading Triple Pursuit: A father Dowling Mystery by Ralph McInerny. It's pretty good so far. Â I also rented a copy of Cut by Patricia McCormick today. I haven't gotten the chance to read it yet, but on what I've read about it, it seems like a pretty good novel.

Akazora 292 Report post Posted November 22, 2014 Mentioned this before, but at that point I had only started this book: A Farewell to Arms by Earnest Hemingway.  This shouldn't even belong here, since this is a thread for "good" books not average books.  AFtA was average at best.  It peeked at chapter 9 out of a total of 41, which was unfortunate.  It's more of a cringe-worthy love story than a war novel, so read it with your expectations in check unless you want to be disappointed.  The two main characters were nothing to speak of, unless you want to consider Catherine as one of literature's most poorly written "yanderes".  The ending was also terribly predictable, and it evoked absolutely no emotion from me.  Well, I did stop yawning by the second half of the last chapter, but at that point it was already too late.  Okay, scratch average, this book was below average and dances very close to bad.  I was never a fan of Hemingway's style to be honest, so I might be biased.  I don't recommend you read it unless school forces you to.  Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kirsch 95 Report post Posted November 26, 2014 Although it's not a novel, but a short story, All Summer in a Day. It's written beautifully, with a rather sad ending, for something that's only five pages long. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akazora 292 Report post Posted November 27, 2014 Reading The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne That book is awesome.  Though I was probably impressed by it more than I should have been because it was a bit of a dark horse book and I came in with nearly zero expectations for it.

People were yelling at it for the whole 20 minutes it was playing. That last scene made so many people face palm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
