"Tricks" by Ellen Hopkins.
[/url] "For the first time
in a long time,
I can say that I wanna try.
I feel helpless for the most part,
but I'm learning to open my eyes.
And the sad truth of the matter is,
I'll never get over it,
but I'm gonna try
to get better and overcome each moment
in my own way"

I'm reading Diana Palmer's "True Colors". Honestly, I hate this woman's writing style, she's just so boring. But this book's different. I'm over halfway done with it now!

I just started 'Glass' by Ellen Hopkins last night. But after that I want to buy and start reading 'Leviathan' by Scott Westerfeld.

Finished "true colors", definitely going to become a favorite.
Now I'm reading Touched by Gold by Kristian Kyle. Romance again, but it looks good!

I am so absolutely pumped to now have a copy of this in my hands:
I'm still reading Glass as well, but I doubt I will put this down until I'm done.

School is really cramping my style. Right now I'm reading Troll : A Love Story, but as soon as I get a break I really want to read some Sarah Dessen ! Not exactly the most intellectual books, but something that makes me feel so much happier!

That book is absolute CRAP. It's just some crap writer's perverse fantasies. The only remark in it is about the Gendarme's anti-riot tactics (so true).
[EDIT] I meant A Year In The Merde, haven't read Merde Actually and don't think I will....
Just picked this up - some random writings about music thrown together into a sort of anthology:
