Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover was packed with emotion, very strong and intense feelings all the way through. You don't get much of a break from it, which makes for a riveting read that you don't want to stop until you get to the last few pages, though ...more | |

Hi Salma
You should go ahead and finish reading The Shadow. I am planning Book 5 and will be working on it next year. I hope this helps your decision to continue with the ending of The Shadow. Thanks for writing. Marianne |

of
A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire (Blood and Ash, #2):
"Yeah, I was mad at Hawke at the end of book 1. He let me (and Poppy) fall for him over a bunch of lies. But I had the same problem that Poppy did. I had fallen for him. I was still mad, though. So was Poppy. Until this book. I was stunned how much I "

“He says, "I have loved you since the first moment I saw you. I wanted you then, and when I thought you didn't want me, I turned my love into hate."
"Ethan..." Before I say another word his mouth comes down over mine and he kisses me.”

“For a moment Ethan simply stares. Before him is the monster of his nightmares: his sister's murderer, the beast who robbed him of his greatest love. How easy, how fulfilling would it be to take Marduk's life? But the arrow in Ethan's fingers slips to the ground.
"No. even revenge is too great an honor for you."
As the night falls and brings an end to this long day of darkness, Marduk inhales his last staggered breath and his body turns to stone.”

“Isabel sends her brother a look that could boil him in oil if she had that particular paranormal talent. A thought hits me: maybe she has. It will be fun to find out.”

“Instinctively, and against my better judgement, I pull her closer to me. She rests her head on my shoulder as if it is the most natural thing in all the worlds to do.
But it's a mistake. I become aware of her heart beating, her lungs expanding with every breath, her skin beneath my touch.
She moves, and her head slides to my chest. Shifting into sleep, she wraps her arm around my waist. Now I'm aware of my heart beating too, slowly, in sync with hers. I know I should push her away. But if my life depended on it, right now, that would be impossible.”

“I did a research assignment on life in the Middle Ages only last year. I found the era fascinating, all that chivalry and court romance. But I never pictured anything as poor as this village. This is the pits. There's no romance here, definitely no chivary. And it stinks--of sweat and smoke and sewage.”

“I recall the look in Rhauk's eyes the moment he spotted Kate. It will stay with me forever, carved into my brain like an engraving on a headstone. It's as if he found something he treasured, something he's been looking for all his life.”
