Just a Little Book Talk - Share Your Current Books Chit Chat

Right now I'm reading Warriors: Into the Wild. Starting from the beginning and re-reading the series.


My book recommendation for you is Me & Emma by Elizabeth Flock. One of my favorites.

Carrie and Emma, two sisters (and their mother) are being abused by their often drunk stepdad. Have to feed themselves most of the time. The sisters have plan to run away.
It has a lot to do with the abuse surrounding the two sisters, Carrie and Emma. So, if that will hurt your soul very much, not the book for you. Starts slow but has a great ending. Lots of twists and turns throughout. It's great.

Oh fun! Nice to hear I'm not the only one rereading, Lemonbee!

I'll look it up! Sounds like a good book!

And cool, Ruby Fox. You liking everything?

I've been treating myself to binging Doctor Who short stories. X'D

That's super cool! I hear the manga is good.

I apparently sold my soul to fan fiction today rather than anything else.

About a year ago, I started reading the Drizzt Do’Urden books by R.A Salvatore. They’re high fantasy books detailing adventures in an epic fashion set in Dungeons and Dragons Forgotten Realms setting.

It’s kind of like reading Lord of the Rings, except they aren’t written like they were penned a few centuries ago lol

i'm currently reading Rebel by Marie Lu which I'm loving so far, and a Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J Maas but I'm really struggling to get through that one
once i finish those i plan on starting Lost Stars by Erin Hunter and then the rest of the books in the Broken Code arc!

Oh nice! I've read about halfway through several Marie Lu books and I keep meaning to finish but it never seems to get done.

I know of Sarah J Maas, but haven't read anything by her. o3o

Hopefully, I might get Shattered Sky here soon. I hate reading the books before I own a physical copy. Wonder if reading Hawkwing's Journey would be a bad move right now.

Got halfway through A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and I have come to the verdict that I'm not interested. Read 50%, which is what I need to "complete" bookclub, and calling it there.

This reminds me to sit down and read occasionally besides ebooks, might go through what I have sitting around on my shelf.

Okay, considering I am reading, want to read, or have finished anything on that list yes to all of that. XD

I cannot recommend six of crows (and its sequel) enough- I’ve checked it out of my school library so many times and I love it just as much as when I first read it

I definitely need to read a few books, here's my current list:

City of Bones
Ragweed
Six of Crows
The Walking Dead: The Fall of the Governor
Revelations
The Red Pyramid

I have read most of those Lark! So go for it!

Thanks for the recommendation, Listen to the Stars!

Currently I'm trying to finish Guards! Guards! and Giver of Stars.

Ooo! I love folklore!

Hum. Tough choice. Most of the ones you can find are really good. Personally, I'm biased beyond belief and liked The Missy Chronicles. I have The Wheel of Ice sitting on my shelf too, though I haven't read it.
The audio dramas are good as well! You can find a lot of them free on Spotify.

smilii I really like Fahrenheit 451 - I read it for school. I have also read 1984, but I would probably not be the person to go to for a positive opinion on it. XD I like Orwell's essays though! I liked Importance of Being Ernest too, it was very witty. GOOD OMENS IS GREAT.
It is one of my favorite books of all times.
As for recommendations ... hum ... for classic lit I personally really liked Count of Monte Cristo.

mossecho Cool! I'll try and find it!
I have one of Celtic Folklore on my shelf that I need to read.
Ha ha, I wouldn't want to know her either. Yeah! I know what you mean about listening to things while you do mundane tasks! I really like doing that. There are several quick and sweet short stories which are really fun.

Ha ha ha. I have very strong opinions about 1984 and I am in the small minority. It comes from reading character centered and in 1984 it's the message and not so much the characters who are important. So while I like Orwell as a writer, 1984 didn't do much for me. Sad, but true.

The Noble Dragon
I am very into creativity, so I will keep it in mind for sure!

I have a few books I read that are like that. Sometimes you just need a book that's predictible and the good guys win.

Thank you for the book recommendations! I love Neil Gaiman!
I actually had American Gods up on my reading list a week or so ago. I had gotten a bit into it and was really enjoying it. Aaaaaaaaaand then I hit a very specific scene near the beginning only to discover that I apparently have a trigger. I have never had that happen to me before, but I was feeling awful for two days straight. So apparently I can't read it. :/ I was and am very bummed. Because gosh darn it I wanted to, but //shrugs//. Apparently it wasn't in the cards. I heard the TV show is good, albeit very different from the book.
But as for your other recs.
I LOVE THOSE TWO BOOKS SO MUCH. ;0;
Good Omens has been my favorite since 2012 and I had been waiting for a TV show or a movie or something ever since and then it HAPPENED and I have .... binged it 9 times thus far.
Whoops?
Also Graveyard Book is so awesome. I originally ignored it, but then I ended up picking it up one day and just loved it so much!

I've also read Ocean at the End of the Lane, which I really really liked. Not sure if you've read that one?
