I am going to start An Abundance of Katherines. Can't wait!

OK, so I finished the first two stories of Let It Snow, which is the last thing I wrote on here. Since then, I've read and finished:
Faerieground: Wish by Beth Bracken & Kay Fraser
Entwined by Heather Dixon
The Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot (reread)
The Princess Diaries II: Princess in the Spotlight by Meg Cabot (reread)
The Princess Diaries III: Princess in Love by Meg Cabot (reread)
The Princess Diaries IV: Princess in Waiting by Meg Cabot (reread)
The Madness Underneath (book 2 of the Shades of London series) by Maureen Johnson
The Beginning of Everything by Robyn Schneider (I just finished this, and it was ADDICTIVE)
Now, I'm trying to read the third story of Let it Snow before my next book club meeting and I'm also reading Unspoken (Book One of The Lynburn Legacy series) by Sarah Rees Brennan.
My goal was to read 100 books this year, and I only have 88 written down in my book journal thus far. I'm disappointed.

I'm reading Allegiant and the Herge book.
I finished The Wobbit and Leonardo's Shadow before Christmas, and read Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott entirely over the past couple days. It's a really good book about writing.

Just Finished: The House of Hades by Rick Riordan
Currently Reading: Looking for Alaska by John Green
And then after that I need to find An Anthropologist on Mars (Oliver Sacks) because 1) it's a library book and 2) my counselor told me to read it.

My mom asked to read Looking for Alaska, but I don't want her to because [spoiler redacted] will make her think that the book is bad for me but it's not. I don't want her to read it no no no no no n no no no. And also she has a habit of reading in the bathtub and I don't want my books to get all messed up no no NO.

@Gollum- How was Allegiant? I loved Divergent but was sort of disappointed by Insurgent. Allegiant is written in both Tris' and Four's perspectives, right?
I finished An Abundance of Katherines. I loved it but not as much as other John Green books. I also finished Rumble Fish by S.E. Hinton. I recommend it, although it wasn't as good as The Outsiders. Now I'm reading Gone: Lies by Michael Grant.

Allegiant had an awful ending, to say the least.
(January 1, 2014 - 4:44 pm)
Or at least a very emotional, sad ending. I'm reading Allegiant right now, but I've heard spoilers about the end. :'(

YEAH JOHN GREEN!!!!!!!
(January 7, 2014 - 4:50 pm)
I am reading The Book Thief and The Hobbit. I have just finished The Whishing Spell (book 2)
(January 1, 2014 - 3:15 pm)
@Maggie- An awful ending? Oh no. That does not sound good. :/
I actually decided not to read Gone: Lies because it's sort of depressing and I needed something a little uplifting so I decided to read I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou.
