I thought it might be fun to list some books I have I want to read and see if anyone has any opinions as to which I should read first. Anyone else feel free to join!

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 1572 comments The only one I've read of those is World After, which was really good! So I'd recommend that one :)

Thanks ladies! I am surprised Ashley didn't recommend Croak! hahaha


Karen’s Library | 574 comments Undivided, Heidi!! I listened to that one on audio and Shusterman did it again! Some BIG surprises from that wacky brain of his!!

Oh my! More opinions. What to do. What to do.


message 9: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 1572 comments I haven't read Game, but I've heard its good, and I loved I hunt Killers. So that would be my second choice, if that helps you :)

Ok. I think I have decided. I will listen to Undivided first and then Game. Thanks so much ladies! You dwindled my pile down considerably. If anyone else needs help to pick feel free to ask!

Will do!


message 14: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 440 comments I'm reading The Isle of Blood (The Monstrumologist, #3) by Rick Yancey now.

The next books I'll read, likely in this order:

Sidekicks by Jack D. Ferraiolo (sounds fun/light)

The Final Descent (The Monstrumologist #4) by Rick Yancey

Bone, Vol. 7 Ghost Circles (Bone, #7) by Jeff Smith (not sure this one will be too light. The series is amazing and you never know what tone to expect)

Fairest (The Lunar Chronicles, #3.5) by Marissa Meyer

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

Those are all library books I have right now. I'll move on to something new after but not sure what. Likely Rot and Ruin (Benny Imura, #1) by Jonathan Maberry


Karen’s Library | 574 comments Tommy, you have to read Rot & Ruin! It was my first zombie book and I loved it! I had refused to read that genre until then! ;)

I love zombies and horror in general, but prefer them in film/tv format. I'm so picky about zombie/horror reads, but Benny will be read for sure at some point :)

*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n* | 986 comments Mod

message 19: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 440 comments I'll just go ahead and say that's the one haha.
