Emma (M)’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

I've fi ishedand I gotta say, this book took me by surprise. I started out thinking that I would not like where it was going, but it won me over and I like how the book finished. For me, my opinion of Mel changed throughout the book, but for some reason I never really warmed to Matt.

I agree with Katy that Adam grew to be my favourite character and (view spoiler)[ I cried like a baby when he died, however I am so happy that he and Mel were able to salvage their marriage and have it turn into something wonderful (hide spoiler)].

I have been wanting to read that trilogy for ages, but have never got around to it.

I ended up reading Ender's Game and loved it. I've also recently read Red Rising and Golden Son and loved them too.

Finished .
400 pages

It doesn't fit any of our current goals.

I have a couple of those books you listed on my eReader, but I have three books on the go at the moment so probably couldn't start one until Monday.

I'm only about 15% of the way in and I am finding it entertaining so far although I'm not particularly drwan to either of the MCs just yet. I'm thinking from other people's comments this might change as the book progresses though.

I'm a bit late starting this one, I got so distracted with challenges I completely forgot. I'll try and start it this afternoon :)

Hi team, I've finished so we can knock off Goal 5, read a book starting with I.

Yep, all settled in and loving it :)

Hi all,

So much going on in this thread already which is nice to see.

I'm another Aussie girl, but from Canberra. I live with my partner and we just bought and moved into our first house together. We don't have any kids yet, unless you count our three fur babies.

I will pretty much read anything, although I have been reading more romance of late.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting to know you all in round 2 and like Eldarwen mentioned I am read Inspire so it looks like we may have a couple of I books which will work out well if that goal gets a repeat this round :)

Unfortunately we only had one such book and that has been used for a goal fairly early on. So I guess that means we'll have to try an..."

I've started Inspire so that will work for this goal in the next round.

How does it work with the end of the round in 15 hours? I could read but it's unlikely I could finish it before the end of the round.

Finished . It doesn't fit any of the current goals unfortunately.

358 pages

Sorry to hear about "Amber to Ashes" though. What made you dislike it?

Teri's on a roll again hehe :-)"

The Night Huntress books are a reread for me so I know that I will enjoy it :)

The writing in Amber to Ashes was too over the top for me. I spent most of be time rolling my eyes. I also don't like instalove and this had it in spade fulls.

No problem, I have about 7 hours left on my current audio so shouldn't take too long.

Finally finished reading and all I can say is I'm glad it's over.

I have which is an audio book that's 5 hrs 39 minutes. I just need to finish the book I'm currently listening to and can start straight onto that afterward.

I will finish soon but it doesn't fit any of our current goals unfortunately.

Thanks for posting about the giveaway for Love At First Flight, I received my copy today and am really looking forward to reading it come August 15
