ClaireB’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

Congratulations !

What they said !
I'm sure you're gonna do great :)

I finished book 2 in the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Strangely enough I wasn't enjoying it as much this time around. Rhage got on my nerves a few times, for some reason.
Well, on to book 3 !

I really like Sarah J Maas's books. She has been criticized a lot, but that's only because she became so popular, and some people don't like that. True that her books follow certain tropes, but like you said it's just so much fun. Who cares as long as you are enjoying it?

LOL!

exactly! depending on the light it can be blue or grey ... Stupid design...

Sammy wrote: "Yes, grey"

Sonia wrote: "@Claire: I'd say gray."

Damn!

Would you say it's blue or grey?

And it was a good read to! I was so glad to be back in that world. I'm going to start reading the second one immediately

You'll have to tell me what you think of A Kiss of Shadows. It's been on my tbr for ages.

Sonia wrote: "Hey team!!!

I won't be starting till Thursday afternoon... probably... I'm the queen of procrastination... so if I start now... I won't be reading any more agile stuff... and I still have some stu..."

Alright Sonia. Just do what you need to do, and after that you'll be able to fully immerse yourself in books and enjoy them more ;)

I think Z's book is the 3rd one. At least, I'm sure the 4th is Butch's, so that's what I assume. I'll let you know when I get to that book :)

Good morning team !

Last night I started Dark Lover for my first sin bingo. I'm really liking this reread so far. I hope this time I will go further than the second book in the series. I used to be really bad with series, but I think I'm getting better at it now.
What are you all reading for your first book of the challenge?

Less than 1 hour left !!!

To me it looks blue ...

@Teddie & @Sammy: thanks! So starting with Kushiel is the way to go. Not sure when I'll get to it. But maybe during this group challenge? It's a big book => big points !!!
We'll see

I really want to try Jacqueline Carey's books. I've hear amazing things about her Kushiel's series. But these are so big it's scary. Have you read them? Or any other of Carey's books? Where do you think I should start?
