Heena’s Comments (group member since Oct 13, 2014)

Heena’s comments from the RMFAO (Reading My Frigging A** Off) group.

#1 Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer - 1/5
A horrible read. Will never try to read anything by Meyer again.

#2 The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman - 2/5
An okayish read. I was expecting a lot more than it had to offer, but maybe it was better as an illustrated book than the audiobook. But the narration was really good. The story not so much.

#3 Wilder Girls by Rory Power - 2/5
Again, an okayish read. It had 2 themes I did not care for - body horror and queer romance. Had the story been good I wouldn't have cared for either, but I think the book was all about these two things only and the body horror part really creeped me out so didn't like it.

#5 Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer - 1/5

#6 The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman - 2/5

#7 Wilder Girls by Rory Power - 2/5

Finished the final part in Twilight series #4 Breaking Dawn - 2/5

THIS BOOK IS THE REASON FOR ALL THE TWILIGHT HATERADE!!
This book was written only to cash in on the success of the earlier 3 books and had no plot or sense to it. I am so amazed by the author's blatant lack of care for her devout readers and fans and kind of even loathe her for it!

Oh, Dagny. The next book turned out to be even worse than the 3rd part! Now I know why everyone hates Twilight series so much. What a horrible ending *shudders*

Hi Alex, welcome to RMFAO. I am a pet-parent too! I have 4 cats, what about you?
Sorry, I don't know which book are you referring to. Can you share more details about it?
Please have a look around at all the challenges we have, I bet you might be interested in at least one of them :)

Even I did not know about this! I'll also have to look it up.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

Andrew wrote: "Great novel, Heena! I read it some months ago and I liked. A good story, with a mix of supernatural and mistery. "

Yes! It is a very good read, Andrew. Good to see you here again :)

I just finished my last book for Jan, so I'll be starting with this month's books now.

Adelaide wrote: "Hi Heena! Per wikipedia: "Regency romances are a subgenre of romance novels set during the period of the British Regency (1811–1820) or early 19th century. ""

I had no idea that romance is further categorised this way. I'll have to check this out. Thanks much, Adelaide. And Happy Reading!

Rebecca wrote: "Does it have to be written by a woman or about women?"


Any book that is either revolving around a woman (main POV character should be woman) or written by a woman would do :)

Marjorie wrote: "Can someone recommend some titles for the women's fiction challenge. This is so not my genre. Please and Thank you!!"

It's not necessary to read only contemporary wren's fiction or romance for this genre at all, you can even go for historical books with female leads or authors or maybe even classics. I can recommend the 2 books I'll be going for this month:
and

I am planning to read Wonder Woman Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo along with finishing the Twilight series for February.
