You are obviously a bad Christian homeschooled girl. :twisted: Shame on you. :P

But if you've read other Christian dating books, then you're good.

Also, I'm starting Catching Fire.

What translation? Is it a pocket-sized one, or regular-sized? What color is it?
it's not about 'deserve'. it's about what you believe. and i believe in love

It's a NLT (New Living Translation).
It's pretty small; about 8 inches high. But it's kinda thick, because it's large print. So, not quite pocket, but not quite regular.
And it's black leather, because I'm boring. xD

I finished Nancy Farmer's The House of the Scorpion in less than 24 hours. It...felt like reading Alex Rider crossed with the Giver crossed with...I don't even know. But it was good. Can't wait to pick up the sequel.

I just finished If I Stay and Where She Went by Gayle Forman. They were great. Her descriptions of Oregon were spot on

Volumes 9-12 of Black Butler manga. I am a complete idiot for thinking that Doyle was Dickens through half of the saga of the Phantomhive Murder Mysteries. *face-palms* Also, Snake and Lizzie are eternally cool. AND so is my beloved Ronald Knox. Ronald dahhling! *uses her Grelle voice*

Ooh Bethany those are good books!
I literally only finished Mockingjay yesterday, I promise not to spoil it for you. ;)

I just began The Usual Rules by Joyce Manyard, it's a beautifully sad book and I appreciate the way the author wrote the main character.

I just read The Inheritance Cycle through for the second time. Again I'm reminded of how much I love the characters, and again I'm reminded of HOW MAD I AM ABOUT THE ENDING
