Cool! I have started the first book in the Magyk series, but right now I'm more captivated in The Accidental Hero.

Finished Magyk at four. Started Chasing Vermeer at the library and am currently reading it.

Magyk was AWESOME!!!!!! And also particularly interesting to me, since I happen to be the seventh child in my family. I mean, my dad or mum weren't seventh children, but still. . . . Hm, I am magykal!

Now I'm also rereading The Hunger Games, because sometimes you need some laughs.  It's really funny, because now I find the writing style kind of bad and all the things people find weird in Twilight I'm finding in this.

Now I'm reading Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas.  I'm also rereading Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett because it was calling to me from my bookshelf.

I finished Chasing Vermeer this morning at six o'clock (couldn't sleep). I would have finished it earlier, but I went to the laundromat yesterday and by accident brought Flyte with me instead. So I started reading that, and I didn't get back to reading Chasing Vermeer til this morning.
Now I'm reading Flyte.

How did you like Chasing Vermeer?  If you did like it, there are two sequels.

I loved it! And, yeah I'm going to get them when I go to the library this week!

Finished The Hunger Games, all the other books I'm reading are not what I'm in the mood for so I'll probably put some of those into official hibernation and call out my collection of John Green books.

I'm reading Ruinmarks. I think this is the 3rd time I've started it, but never finished. I'm determined to this time!

I finished Chasing Vermeer and moved on to its sequel, The Wright Three, and I'm about a quarter of the way done with Throne of Glass.

I have read Chasing Vermeer and I loved it! I didn't know there was a sequel, is it good?

i just finished listening to Insurgent and am dying for the last book to come out. I am also almost done listening to the Way of Kings. For school I am finishing up A Tale of Two Cities.

I finished Flyte on the first and have been reading The Girl Who Soared Over Fairyland and Cut The Moon in Two ever since.

Just Finished: Will Grayson, Will Grayson
Currently Reading: Paper Towns

I found all these parallels between various John Green books and just John Green in general. Like in Will Grayson Will Grayson Jane and uppercase Will are thanked for "being awesome" in the program. And there's a lot more parallels than that but...whatever. Also lowercase will is a fantastic depressed person. He's my favorite character.

I can't decide between Will or will.  It's so difficult!

It must have been kind of awkward because lower case will's Isaac and Night of the broken trophies Isaac.
