I Need it in my life. <br /><br />Sea of Tranquility was such a good book! <br /><br />I have The Lightening Theif on my list. I have seen the movie but I need to read the book to decide if I like it!

I loved it so much. There was an Olympic gymnast with the name Nastya a few years back, so I'd hear it before. It's a Russian name. "Nah-stee-ah". That's my poor man's pronunciation guide. Anyway, I loved it. <br />A lot of my students read Rick Riordan books, but I haven't yet. It's not really my preferred genre. Maybe someday...Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12075708535155080258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581436032352728193.post-61291323615294892322016-02-10T20:19:58.208-05:002016-02-10T20:19:58.208-05:00Sea of Tranquility has been on my TBR list forever...Sea of Tranquility has been on my TBR list forever but I haven't gotten to it yet. I have Audible and sometimes it burns me to think I spend $15 on one book each month. But then I remind myself how much joy it brings to my commutes while I have it....and that I get a lot of books for free from Blogging for Books and Netgalley so really it evens out to be not much.

It was really a great read. I love the author's style of writing.Anyway, thanks for the share.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.vinhomes.in/vinhomess/flats-in-nungambakkam.html" rel="nofollow">apartments in Nungambakkam</a><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018742027336678977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581436032352728193.post-18996454105688145202016-02-09T17:13:20.073-05:002016-02-09T17:13:20.073-05:00I think it's very sweet that you were reading ...I think it's very sweet that you were reading The Lightning Thief out loud to The German.

And a little thrilled like something forbidden has been done.

And the fact that they didn't talk to each other and escaped to others was part of what made it sad. It was definitely strange at times, and ABC's name was ANNOYING, but I loved it anyway.<br /><br />If you didn't like Summerlong, don't read any of his other books. This one probably has the most mass appeal.Jana @ Jana Sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15501814243709445827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1581436032352728193.post-28196363726001258732016-02-09T10:19:26.712-05:002016-02-09T10:19:26.712-05:00i cancel my audible membership all the time. one t...i cancel my audible membership all the time. one time i cancelled it and they gave me a 3 month membership for half price, woo. also, i got a $1 a month deal around black friday, but i'm not paying $15 a month for one book. i'm stingy. do you know the 'trick' to getting cheap ones? i just 'bought' a free kindle book and then you can add the audible narration for $1.99, so i did, and basically that book cost me $2. woo. it's different for every kindle / audible, so it could be like $3 for the kindle, $3 for the 'whispersync' or whatever, but that's only $6 compared to $15 on audible, you know? sometimes it works out cheaper and sometimes it doesn't. just a thought. <br />i lol-d at 'especially if you're stoned'.<br />i read the first book in the percy jackson series a couple years ago and still haven't read the rest. part of me wants to, the other part can't be bothered.<br />so glad you liked the sea of tranquility, though i get what you mean about certain things being believable. i still have no idea how to pronounce Nastya. haha.Kristen @ See You In A Porridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592108031437491276noreply@blogger.com
