It's Monday What are you Reading?

It's another installment of "It's Monday What are you Reading?" hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.  Thanks Sheila!

I recently finished:
Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer.  I had the chance to see the movie with my old roommate from high school while I was visiting her in Ohio, so I saw it before I re-read Eclipse.  Oh well!  The movie was great!  Jacob is so much more likable in the movie than the book. 
If I Stay by Gayle Forman  I will write a review soon on this book.  It's our YA book club selection, and I think it will foster good discussion at our meeting at the end of the month.












What's on my list for this Week:
American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang  This is on a class syllabus that I'm reading through.  I'll share that list in an upcoming post.  I picked it up at the library today and was surprised to find it in the Graphic YA novels!  Who knew?  I've never read a graphic novel, so I'm intrigued. 
A Match Made in High School by Kristin Walker  I am excited about this book!!!  From what I can tell, it's based on the Shakespeare idea of mistaken identities.  It sounds like a good clean YA book.  I have high hopes!!
Under a Maui Moon by Robin Jones Gunn  I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS BOOK!!!  It's on the way from amazon.com, and I'm biting my nails in anticipation!  Robin Jones Gunn is my favorite author, and this is her new release.  Plus the setting is Maui, a setting she has written about in other books such as Whispers, one of my favorite books.
