Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire. If you want an INTENSE romance, that's your book. Some people say it's YA but I think is NA because it has so many HOT scenes and big issues.. Not of a teenage! Anyway, it's a great book. Thanks!!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite books this summer was the Charley Davidson series by Darynda Jones. They were so good!

ReplyDeleteUnearthly by Cynthia Hand
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the first 2 books in this series. I can't wait to read the next one.
DeleteI joke that my favortie book is the one I am currently reading. :) I did enjoy Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn this summer though. I'm also reading The Virgin Cure by Ami McKay and it very good. Thanks for the opportunity to win an Amazon gift card....one of my favorite things although it is stressful trying to decide which book to buy since I want so many. Wink. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually love both. I'm not sure why but you seem to enjoy reading more on an ereader. There is also something to actually having the real book in your hands though plus they look pretty on your shelves. Wink. :)
ReplyDeleteI like seeing the book on my real bookshelf. And I like turning the pages in real books.
DeleteMy favourite summer read was Something Like Normal by Trish Doller. :)
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm all crazy reading Harlequin. But mostly like reading Jane Porter' series of Royal Scandal.

There are so many! The last great one I read was Throne of Glass though!
ReplyDeleteThe Shiver series by Maggie S.
ReplyDeleteI adored this series.... until the ending. Don't get me started on the ambiguous writing. What a cop out. I have a review written somewhere that I never posted because I didn't have anything nice to say about it.
DeleteI loved, Delerium.
ReplyDeleteTracy Awalt Juliano
I bought this (autographed) but I haven't had the time to read it yet.

the prisoner of heaven by carlos ruiz zafon
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book this summer was Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry.
ReplyDeletebadmonkey13121 @ yahoo .com

The best of the summer was Easy by Tammara Webber!
ReplyDeleteDivergent!Great book
ReplyDeleteProbably my favorite book was LETHAL RIDER by Larissa Ione. I read a mixture of print & ebooks. I like both at times, print books look great on the shelf and you don't have to worry about batteries going dead. But ereaders you can carry hundreds, thousands of books with you where ever you go.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was The Immortal Rules.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book so far this summer was Guilty Wives by James Patterson
ReplyDeleteMy kids just got me a kindle, and although I have read one book on it while we drove to Chicago, I still prefer a paper book.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book this summer has been Throne of Glass. It was simply amazing!
ReplyDeleteI've just gotten into e-readers. I still prefer the feel of a book, but I'm definitely warming up to the idea of the e-reader.
The case is gorgeous!
Happy Birthday by Danielle Steel
ReplyDeleteDivergent by Veronica Roth for me. I know it was released a while ago but only recently got around to reading it.
ReplyDeleteI love the name of your blog. I'm a huge Persuasion and Captain Wentworth fan... the Letter... *sigh*.
Thanks for the giveaway.
golden lily
ReplyDeleteI liked Gone Girl
ReplyDeleteDigicats {at} Sbcglobal {dot} Net
I like to read books both ways -- maybe the "real thing" a little bit more than an e-reader, tho
ReplyDeleteDigicats {at} Sbcglobal {dot} Net
My fav would be Clockwork Angel
ReplyDeleteThe last 2 books that I have read have been amazing, so I will recommend them both. Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally and Shadows Cast by Stars by Catherine Knuttson. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteBefore I got my first Kindle from my husband for my birthday a few years ago, I swore I would never use one. Now that I have had one (actually 2 and a Fire), I love it. But I will always prefer a real book. I just love holding a book and curling up with a blanket. Kindle is a great way too travel, though.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite books I've read this Summer were Fallen and Torment, both by Lauren Kate.
ReplyDeleteI prefer actual books over eBooks.
My favorite book this summer was The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa.
ReplyDeleteBlue Bistro by Elin Hilderbrand

Hollybwrightatcomcastdotnet
I read Camp Follower by Suzanne Adair and I loved it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway.
Mel Brock
My favorite book has been Werewolf in Manhattan, I love paranormal romances
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book this summer has been Club Dead.
ReplyDeleteI prefer to read an actual book, just haven't gotten the hang of e-readers.
My favorite was Before I Wake by Rachel Vincent.
ReplyDeletedon't have a fav yet - regnod(at)yahoo(d0t)com
ReplyDeleteMy favorite this summer has been The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
ReplyDeleteMy favorite read so far has been Pandemonium.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I will never stop reading physical books, I do love my Kindle Fire. I like that I can read anywhere with the Kindle app on my phone, and then pick up where I left off on the actual Kindle. Also, the Kindle is great for traveling. I am flying to Europe on Saturday for a two-week cruise. I don't want to bring a ton of books with me (I can easily read at least three books on each nine hour flight), so I am going to be bringing ONE book (for times when I cannot use any electronic devices) and then just rely on my Kindle for any other reading.
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite book of the summer would have to be LET THE SKY FALL by Shannon Messenger.
ReplyDeleteI prefer reading paper books, but I must say that since I started reading on my iPad, I love that too. It's also easier to do if I'm holding my baby in one arm, whereas with a paper book I'd have to contort to a weird position to try to turn the page without waking him up.
ReplyDeletecity of lost souls in the mortal instruments series, ssssoooo frustrating but sssssooooo very good :)
ReplyDeleteI loved Onyx by Jennifer L. Armentrout.
ReplyDeletejmesparza821(at)gmail(dot)com
A Stolen Life Jaycee Duggard
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book that summer was Sultanetta by Alexandre Dumas.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! :)
I loved Cinder by Marissa Meyer!
ReplyDeleteI discovered the Downside Ghosts series by Stacia Kane this summer and fell in love! I'm currently reading Delirium and it may be my second favorite so far.
ReplyDeleteI just got a Kindle earlier this summer, so have only read a little bit on it so far. I'm really enjoying it's flexibility, but I don't think anything will replace the feel of a book, or the having the book on my shelf (not that I need any more).
My favorite book this summer was Just Listen, by Sarah Dessen.
ReplyDeleteRapture
ReplyDeleteAnna Dressed in Blood and What I Didn't Say. :)
ReplyDeleteOn The Island by Tracey Graves!
ReplyDeleteEven though I just got a Kindle, I still prefer paper. It's the book-smell I just can't live without. ;)
ReplyDeleteFavorite read would have to be The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater.
my favorite was pushing the limits :)
ReplyDeleteA Discovery of Witches

ReplyDeleteThrone of Glass
ReplyDeleteThe Hunger Games.
ReplyDeletemagic5905 at embarqmail dot com
Argh! I can't possibly choose just one book as my favorite this whole summer! I have too many! To name a few: The Syrenka Series by Amber Garr; Everblue and Evergreen by Brenda Pandos; The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout. (Of Poseidon, Under the Never Sky, The Mindjack Triliogy, and The Mind Readers are other great titles to check out!)
ReplyDeleteI actually enjoy both; having a hardcopy to cherish and an e-copy to quote and bring with me on my computer anywhere I go...my goal is to get a kindle someday lol :)
ReplyDeleteLove reading on my kindle!!!
