[leloo]

Last year's list can be found here

1. I will read 30 books or more in 2012.
2. I'll keep track of how many I read in this post (with the authors.)
3. I only record first-time reads.
If you want to recommend any books to me, go for it!

Also, I update my Goodreads account quite regularly. Friend me if you're there!

I didn't realise you were on goodreads! Added you :)

[leloo]

Yay I saw :)

I've been on there for a couple of years now, I think :D

I think I am actually glad that I never noticed you mention it before! I can't imagine what it would have been like to catalogue my entire book collection without the handy barcode scanning app. Nightmare.

I don't have all my books listed there... Mostly that's because most of them are still sitting in boxes in Sydney, but also it's just too much work. I used to do it when I used LibraryThing, but now I'm not too bothered whether it's the right edition or not, and whether all of my books are there. I add new books and when I finish them, I like to add the date. But with older ones, I can't even remember what year I read them LOL

I saw Crossed and Matched at the airport yesterday and was tempted to buy them. What are they like?

And yay for The Secret Circle :D

The Secret Circle books are rather painful to read, to be honest. And yet again, it baffles me how different the tv show is from the books. Or at least, how different they have made the characters. Just like with The Vampire Diaries, it's almost like they read the character descriptions and thought "let's make every character the exact opposite of how they are/look in these books".

I'm sad they cancelled Secret Circle though, I liked it. Now I guess I'll have to read all the books intead :p And as for TVD, all I can say is FINALLY - don't these people know this happened in book 2? And the books aren't that long..!

Anyway, yeah I really enjoyed Matched and Crossed. I don't think they're groundbreaking literature or anything but they're good and I really like the story. I'll recommend them, and also Wither if you come across it.
