I'm really sorry for your loss. I can' even imagine what it must feel like.

35559 Right! Thanks!
Maybe I can read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. It’s been sitting on my shelves for ages.

35559 what's that about Zombie? Did I miss something?

35559 I haven't watched Agent Carter nor Agents of SHIELD either. They aren't on netflix, are they?

Yes, I've watched Infinity War. I wasn't really up to date with the Avengers movies, but a friend of mine really wanted to see it. I was a bit confused about some stuff, but luckily it wasn't so bad that I couldn't enjoy the movie. Now I'm really looking forward to the next one.

35559 Well, it would be hard to do worse.

Continuity. That's something I both love and hate about the marvel franchise. On the one hand it's fun to see all these characters linking all these shows and movies together. But on the other It's like you have to watch it all to fully understand what's happening. And that forces you to watch even the ones you're not interested in.

35559 I tried to start the second season of Luke Cage when it came out, but I wasn't in the mood. But I will eventually.
The Iron Fist on the other hand, I'm not sure I'll continue that one either. I really liked the beginning of the first season, but the second half of it was plain bad in my opinion.

Is it good? I didn't like the second season that much. I'm debating on continuing the series or not.

35559 good, good.

I wasn't able to read much yesterday. I got caught up watching the new Sabrina tv-show on netflix. '-_-
I don't know what came over me. I should never have started it. Well, now I'm finished with it already, I guess I can concentrate on my books. lol

I read that at the beginning of the month. I really liked it. Must be my favorite in this little series of novellas :)

Happy Readings Everybody!"


Yessss!!!! Now, what should I start with ? :D
I have a few options. I have to read both These Rebel Waves (Stream Raiders, #1) by Sara Raasch and New Finnish Grammar by Diego Marani for my bookclubs. But I'm also dying to read Muse of Nightmares (Strange the Dreamer, #2) by Laini Taylor , and Kingdom of Ash (Throne of Glass, #7) by Sarah J. Maas . But before reading that last one, I'd need to read the chaol book, Tower of Dawn (Throne of Glass, #6) by Sarah J. Maas ... All these options ! what should I do? haha

35559 @slytherpuff the rule you're referring to just states that for instance a book that is not finished in week 1 can be used in week 2, or even in a later week. As long as it is started during the challenge.

that's a relief. I was so disappointed in this one. (again, no Tyrion?! I can't accept that!) It didn't really make me look forward to an even larger book... '-_-

35559 I finally finished A Feast for Crows !!! Hooray !!!
It wasn't the best of the series. Half of the characters were missing. No Tyrion! What's up with that?! How is it possible to have a Game of Thrones book without Tyrion in it!?

That's too bad.

One of these days I really need to sign up on that netgalley thing.

I'm going to do that too. Muse of Nightmare was actually the first book I entered in the planning speadsheet. I'm really looking forward to reading it.

35559 Same here. I'm trying to finish A Feast for Crows, which I started a couple of months ago. And hopefully I'll be able to read A Dance with Dragons for the challenge. Finishing the Game of Thrones series this year was one of my bookish resolutions of 2018. Fingers crossed that I'll actually be able to accomplish that !
