Fifty Shades of Grey. It's disturbing that so many people think of this as good literature.

ETA: Wow, thought I should add that I'm not reading this because it's the sort of genre I like, but because I wanted to see what the ridiculous amount of fuss was about. Truthfully, it makes me feel a little bit ill whenever I pick it up. Thankfully it's on my Kindle so no one needs to see what I'm reading.

I preferred Paper Towns to Looking For Alaska, but I can't help feeling like they were exceedingly similar. I don't know if it's just because I read them both so close together that I feel that way. I mean, they are by the same author so it's not exactly crazy that they'd seem similar, but a lot of the characters felt very similar too.

I agree! An Abundance Of Katherines is also built on the same premise - geek boy falls in love with quirky, confident girl and becomes a badass in the process, and it also has the obligatory comic relief best friend who starts dating the pretty girl way out of his league. Now that I think about it, they really are the same novel, but I still enjoyed reading them. I can't help but like authors who don't take themselves too seriously.

I still enjoyed them too. I looked at An Abundance of Katherines on Amazon and I think I'm going to leave that one for now and read The Fault in Our Stars instead, once I get a copy.

I'm currently reading The Heart Keeper by Françoise Sagan.

I've just started to read The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

I just finished reading Opening Skinners Box by Lauren Slater, it's about a lot of intresting psychology experiments i've previously studied and i really enjoyed her narrative on them, was a very intresting read, made me think a lot.

Just stared reading Bared to You by Slyvia Day, little disapointed that it reads a lot like Fifty shades of Grey, why is it so hard to find decent/well written erotic fiction!?
