The first book I got this month was Emerald Green by Kirsten Gier which is the third and final book in the Precious Stone trilogy. Since this book in the third in the series I can't summarize it without spoilers.
The Second book I got was The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I love this book! It is probably my favorite book of all time. This book is about Hazel Grace who is a teenager with cancer. One day when she is at her cancer kids support group she meets Augustus Waters and they start a relationship. This book is amazing and sad all at the same time.
The next book I got is Paper Towns by John Green. I really don't know anything about this book other than it is a standalone novel by John Green who, if you didn't notice, is the same author of The Fault in Our Stars.
The Next three books I got are all classics one I have read before and the other two I plan to read in the near future.
First is Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I love this book and it is probably one of my favorite classics.
The Second is Emma also by Jane Austen.
And finally Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.
The seventh book I got in October is The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. I am really looking forward to reading this book. It takes place in the aftermath of a sickness that killed off most of the children in the world. The ones that did not die are left with dangerous powers. Ruby is one of the most dangerous and she is on the run to get to the only safe place left of kids like her.
Next is The Selection by Kiera Cass. This book is about America Singer who is unwilling entered into a competition to win the right to be Prince Maxon's Queen. I love the idea of this story and I am really looking forward to reading it.
The last book I read this month is The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons. Again I really don't know much about this book either.
So there you have it. All 9 books that I bought this month.
I saw The Fault In Our Stars on my Kindle and almost bought it. Sounds like you liked it, so I'll go ahead with it. I love Pride & Prejudice. Have you seen the full BBC version of it? If not, I have the DVDs you could borrow sometime. Also, if you're a big Jane Austen fan you should read the book Austenland. It's a fun read and they made a movie of it too, although I think it's an independent film so we'll have to wait until it's out on DISH to see it. Also, I really liked Jane Eyre, except it was a little creepy and when I read late at night I was worried someone would burn down my bedroom. Ha ha! I saw the recent movie of Jane Eyre but didn't care for Michael Fassbender as the lead male - I hated the way he said Jane's name. I'd love to see some older versions of the movie and see if they're better. I'd love to hear how The Selection turns out - sounds like a good one!
