Obsessions Part II (Team PEETA)


So, I have a stack of maybe 10-15 books in my bookshelf, and then I went and got MORE books Friday- I spent almost $60.00 on various YA books. One of them is hush, hush by Becca Fitzpatrick. I read the first five or so pages before I had to get back to real life, but I am intrigued. The opening was slightly confusing, but I still feel like I want to keep going. It has something to do with a girl, a fallen angel, romance, and an epic battle- all things that I can relate to :) I also see that there will be a sequel coming soon called Crescendo- I think I'm already liking these books- the titles alone are pretty enticing.

If you want to learn more, or even hear a snippet of the book go here: http://books.simonandschuster.com/Hush-Hush/Becca-Fitzpatrick/9781416989417 OR here:

I intend to follow her page.

Now to my old and # 1 obsession right now! I'm a little upset because I ALMOST bought Catching Fire, but I am trying to hold out for the paperback. I regret it now and I can feel my hands itching to go and get that book. I have already read that one and The Hunger Games, but I intend to read them both OVER...and OVER again. It is a genius series and I am counting down until the third book: Mockingjay (August 24th, 2010) is released! And as always, just like the title of this blog post says, I am Team Peeta!!!!!

  1. Of course you can relate to fallen angels and epic battles. I mean, you are a school teacher. :) BTW, you know I'm stealing both Hunger Games and Catching Fire from you over the summer, right? I have to see what all the hype is about.

  2. Hush, Hush was pretty good and babe you should of bought Catching Fire! It's awesome!!

    Oh and thanks for commenting on my Monday's Post - now for your question "I have to admit I am so busy with my career as a teacher that I don't post everyday, but I am trying to get better- and no one is reading my posts! What should I do???"

    First of all, it's awesome that you're a teacher I wanted to go down that route but am now changing my mind hehe :) As for people not reading your posts, you gotta network pretty much. Just like you left me a comment I wanted to look at your blog. Maybe I can help you, would you like me to post about your blog to get your name out there? Let me know and I'll do it this Saturday :) You could always e-mail me at lafemmereaders@yahoo.com if you ever need help :)
