Claudia, I agree with you (view spoiler)[ that the conflict between humand and the Other is only growing and was long coming. I can only see it worsening in the books to come and it wan only end in a bloody war. I can only hope Meg's prophecies can help prevent some of it. (hide spoiler)]

Finished !

I'm really loving this series. If you do a Buddy Read for the next one, I'll join for sure !

awesome !!

So, can you all make sure that you..."

I checked my books on the spreadsheets and everything seems in order :)

Chapter 14

Something I love in this book (view spoiler)[ is when Simon joins Meg on the couch to watch a movie. He so acts like a puppy. Loving all the attention Meg gives him. It's just too cute. haha. I'm sure he'd be offended if someone told him that.
It makes me want to have a dog. Which is weird because I'm more a cat person! (hide spoiler)]

characters: Lara Jean Covey, Kitty, Margot, Peter Kavinsky, Genevieve, Victor, Haven, Chris, Owen, Emily, Trina Rotchield, Stormy

I finished it too :)

(view spoiler)[I think I liked it better than book one.
I wasn't a big fan of Peter in book 1, and I liked him slightly better by the end of this book. (even though there were moments I wanted to get in the book and shake him to make him see sens, as well as Lara Jean. lol)
I thought it was interesting that the "lost letter" came back into the story. I didn't expect it to ever reappear. I can"t say I was a fan of the love triangle, however.
Overall it was a nice YA contemporary. (hide spoiler)]

chapter 9

(view spoiler)[ Now they've turned it into a meme and it's going viral. This is horrible. I can't even imagine what it must feel like !!! (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 7

(view spoiler)[ I'm afraid the video will put a new strain on Peter and Lara Jean's relationship. It's so fragile at this point already.
I wonder if it's Genevieve who posted it. (hide spoiler)]

I just finished chapter 9. I'm slow reading, I've been too ambitious with my Buddy Reads, haha. I need to slow down.

Anyway, (view spoiler)[So they are targetting the crows because they are everywhere and notice everything. What are they really after then? Could it be Meg again?

Also apparently you were right and the cassandra sangue were also used for sexual pleasure after a prophecy. This just grosses me out. How far can they go in their abuse? (hide spoiler)]

found a cover with a cauldron !
The Tales of Beedle the Bard. It's about 130 pages, so it will be a quick read :)

Kitty's great 😂 She's made me laugh out loud with some of her blunt, sassy remark..."

I feel the same. I liked Kitty, she was fun :)
And Lara Jean does sound like a teenager. Which I guess is normal. haha

I'm going to join you. I'd like to know what happens between Peter and Lara Jean.

It really was an amazing read. It was so hard to put down once you really enter the game. It also really made me want to play videogames, haha.

I loved how it gripped me to not want to put it down. Haven't had a book like that in ages :)"

Just happened to me. If I wasn't dead tired I would have finished it last night. As it happened the minute I woke up I finished it !!

Just got to chapter 16

(view spoiler)[This book just took an explosive turn, to say the least! I’m filled with adrenaline! I can’t wait to see what happened next.
I can’t believe the sixters actually made a whole trailer tower explode like that. It’s crazy.
If I were one of the five I’d accept to team up. Now they’re alone against an army. Nobody else will ever get a chance to reach the egg.
Going back to reading now. I need to know what happens next! (hide spoiler)]
