I did have a bit of trouble at the start concerning Everneath but about 50 pages in when I was thinking that I might have to put it down, something clicked and it was smooth sailing from there! Don't let that put you off ;) Twenty Boy Summer is great, really enjoyed it. The Fault In Our Stars is amazing, I was literally walking around in a daze - that's how much I loved it. My only problem with TFIOS was that I found the language to be a little too over the top. I understand that the characters were wise and mature for their age but I didn't understand quite a few words and that therefore made me feel rather dumb.<br /><br />My vote goes to: Catastrophic as it's addictive and refreshing and Everneath because it was always intriguing and Jack (swoon!). Both are must reads :)<br /> <br />Juhina - Apart from Fateful which I didn't enjoy (the only thing aspect I liked was that it was set on the Titanic), I haven't read any of the books you mentioned but after reading Paranormalcy last year and enjoying it, I vote for Supernaturally! Cinder too, as it looks awesome and I've only hear amazing things!<br /><br />Hope I've helped, happy reading! :)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18234560405122776663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2329593457481155810.post-53724510882637241862012-08-30T21:17:31.196-04:002012-08-30T21:17:31.196-04:00Farah - Sorry, I didn't read any of those book...Farah - Sorry, I didn't read any of those books but I am dying to read the Matched series!<br /><br />Juhina - I LOVED Fateful, Cinder, City of Bones and The Iron Daughter. <br /><br />Fateful - This one was a great stand-alone (sometimes it's good to take a break from series) and it didn't end up being as cliché as I thought it would be with the idea of werewolves on titanic. If you want you can check out my review <a href="http://fantasysink.blogspot.ca/2011/09/review-fateful.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. <br /><br />Cinder - I loved the rich setting in Cinder, although it was a retelling of Cinderella Marissa Meyer added plenty of her own original ideas in the book. My review can be found <a href="http://fantasysink.blogspot.ca/2012/03/review-cinder.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>!<br /><br />City of Bones - I really do love this series, the characters are just all loads of fun plus there's the movie coming out next year, and I always like reading the book first before watching the movie. <br /><br />The Iron Daughter - Definitely a lot better than The Iron King, my favourite in the series though was The Iron Queen.

And i really recommend The Catastrophic Hostory of You and Me!<br /><br />Juhina: you HAVE to give City of Bones and Cinder a go! i loved both of them!<br /><br />By the way, i'm really curious about your blog name. I've been dying to ask this question: because i know Juhina loves to watch asain drama i was wondering if the word "maji" in your blog name means "really" in japenese? bookworm105https://www.blogger.com/profile/02086577829618472946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2329593457481155810.post-23171106163200250322012-08-30T11:59:59.927-04:002012-08-30T11:59:59.927-04:00I think Everneath looks brilliant, and would proba...I think Everneath looks brilliant, and would probably start with that. But then The Catastrophic History of You and Me is supposed to be amazing, so maybe that.... :P<br /><br />Juhina, I think City of Bones, because like Jen above me said, the movie is on the way and you should make sure you've already read the books. :)<br /><br />By the way, new follower via GFB and Twitter!

I thought it was amazing, it's been one of my favorite reads so far this year. Also, I really enjoyed Everneath. I haven't read the others, but I really enjoyed both of those :)<br /><br />Hi Juhina! I thought City of Bones was really good and I like the Iron Fey series. Both Paper Towns and Supernaturally also sound good :)Montana @ The Book Belleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08467441835054398252noreply@blogger.com
