I really liked Confessions of a Shopaholic. It's really interesting and funny! Once you read it, you won't be able to put it down!

haha my brother has all the magical treehouse books when I was little I bought all the Babysitters Club Little Sister books, anyone remember them? lol I am in love the the Detective Alex Cross series by James Patterson, they are so good. And I recently read a book called Kiss Me, Judas, by Will Christopher Baer, that was really good. And Angela's Ashes will always be a favourite of mine

Yeah, a lot of those good books are all out of print now! And then we have to order them from the internet ... or something for the used copies.

I read them in whatever order I could get them.
Like, I read the first one, and then maggie's, then amelias, then duckys. Then i read like Sunny diary three or something. I've read more, but I don't quite remember anymore...

Haha yeah, I would read them in whatever order as well ... because I only got like one at the library each week. Ohh, Scarlet Letter .. that's a good book, but I haven't read it. I just finished my very boring, but interesting book. Haha it took me about ... well, very long to skim the whole biography of Mother Teresa. I feel inspired now ... yes, inspired to start my lovely report on her.

wow.. that was just full of contradictions... it's a good book but you haven't read it... it's a boring but interesting book! hahaha nice.
what i hate about school assigned books is that sometimes people ruin them for me..because everyone is reading it at the same time, and some classes are ahead of others..and they'll spill the ending or something.

Omgosh! That totally sucks, but it happens all the freakin' time to me! Haha, I was reading a book and I needed to finish it, so I brought it to church, and my friend just came up to me and said, "Oh that's a good book. He dies in the end." .... My complete ending ruined by my friend. My ending of the Half Blood Prince was ruined by so many people! One of them accidentally shouted out what happened to Dumbledore a bit too loud and she told me who the Half Blood Prince was. Another one started going on about the pairings in the book, and so I knew who was with whom already. And then in people's info on AIM was _n_p_ KILLS _u_m_... etc. And accidentally reading people's xanga entries and all that... Haha so I hate people ruining a good book's ending. Or I also hate myself when I accidentally flip to the last page of a book and suddenly read the last line and notice what happens by reading that line. I was on book 4 of the "Sweep" series and I opened up book 14 and read one line, and my ending was spoiled from book 4-14. Haha But anyway, I recommend the Sweep Series by Cate Tiernan.
