As I have mentioned before, beginning July 28th I am taking a break from the EW list to prepare for the release of Breaking Dawn. I am so excited I can't stand it! Only 8 more days until the release. Now I have to decide if I am going to a release party or if I will wait until Saturday morning...
Since I finished The Liars' Club on Wednesday I didn't want to start the next book (American Pastoral) until after my Twilight break so I have been reading through some of the books that have been stacking up on me. This is one of the areas that I keep "my to read" books. These are only Young Adult. I have one other basket of fiction and nonfiction. Never fear one of the perks of my job is free books so I don't have a spending problem. For a partial listing of my library see the side bar...
So what have I been reading (I should point out that I read a LOT of Young Adult Fiction, there are reasons I will explain in another post, just be warned)...
How to Be Bad - I love road trip books in general and this one is a fun read. I love E. Lockhart and Lauren Myracle has written several books with a character named Jana so I like her :)
Ambition - This is book 7 of Kate Brian's Private series. This is probably my favorite Alloy series right now. Private school, rich girls, and death. Fantastic. They keep getting better. The next one comes out in September...can't wait.
And today I started Rumors - The sequel to The Luxe. The Luxe has been called Gossip Girl set in the late 19th century. I enjoyed the first one and am looking forward to this one. I will let you know what I think.
So that should take me up to Monday. I have to work this weekend and tend to my gardens so I am not sure how much reading I will fit in. I hope you all have your copies of the Twlight books and are ready to go. Just a warning... These books are long so if you need more time start now. In the three volumes there are a total 1824 pages (please don't be scared you won't even realize you have read that much). My pace will be roughly 365 pages a day so adjust your schedules where necessary. I have recommended these books frequently and I have never had a complaint! Edward, Bella and Jacob await you :)

UGH....still on The Road! ALmost done, though. I thought i could finish it last night, but since i was home alone i was too chicken of nightmares:)
Looking forward to those "reasons"...i like the raunchy stuff too much to go to young adult :) Of course, that depends on how young "young" really is :)
I finished "Life of Pi" and I did enjoy it. A little gruesome at times, but quite real.
Have you ever read "Miss Julia" by Ann B. Ross? I've read 3 of the books, but there are several. They are quite funny.
