Thank you Karishma. Can you please add this and any further books you are reading or plan to read to our Books Read Discussion Page until you get back (and even then if you can)

Enjoy your Holiday!

Yes. Provided there's discussion about the book from you and others.

You can join in at anytime. Just make sure you have not read the book in the past 6 months and for point to count, there needs to be some discussion after your post. So, it's good to read what others say, click 'reply' and add your thoughts onto theirs. That way, there's a higher chance they'll reply to you.

I've added in some Frequently Asked Questions from the Captains group to Message 10

Thanks Teri! It's really helpful that you put your books here. I've entered them into the spreadsheets

LOL [spoilers removed]"

I've got a feeling Feyre is the one who'll get to him. I get that it's hard for her but seeing Tamlin as he was. Man I feel sorry for him

Whoop! I finished the book finally.

In the end, I thought it was alright. It definitely is repetitive in some aspects and does not have much happening in it (obviously as it's a novella).

I agree with you all that Nesta's just awful. But I can understand where she's coming from - still dealing with being changed, still adapting to her new world, still adapting to living at the book 3 events, still dealing and accepting Cassian. We read what was going through her head in the spoiler chapter for book 4 so I can see it's still hard for her to deal with that trauma and to accept who she is.
@Sailor - I totally hope her living with the Illyrians will help her... I think it's what she needs. To beat out her frustrations of life and do something about who she is and meant to become.

@Snowtulip - Yes! I think I've wanted Elaine to be with Lucian as the mate bond and all that. But Azriel... I think he deserves it more. But then Lucian would be devastated and he deserves more for all he's done. Argh!

Are you on a team? (don't have to be, we just need to know so we don't duplicate volunte..."

Yep! I'm on Team Tonks

Please stop D:

I can actually hear her voice say that *shudders*

Please tell me we're all done with the Umbridge references. I'm suffering.

✿ Claire ✿ ~ The Clever Berry wrote: "Snowtulip wrote: "Ch 2 [spoilers removed]"

Same here, [spoilers removed]"

I agree Claire! I think in general, all males suffer without their mates. We can see Lucian still suffering as well without Elaine.

I started last night and got up to chapter 6. I could have easily finished this in one night but I was trying to finish other books first. I don't think I'll be able to finish it until Monday night sadly.

So, I'm loving that we have seen other characters P.O.V. so far. It's wonderful to see how they think even though I can't reach in and give them a hug.

Okay, Thanks Teri!

Thanks mods!

Lol Devann! I'm on the same page. So many B.R., so little time!
(Team Tonks)

Mmm yeah. That's true. I don't think many people know that.
At least Zeus got a mention - he doesn't want to pick a side. I also think it was just a random myth fact she could throw in to make it more accurate to the Greek Gods. Unnecessary really...

I finished the book. 2.5 stars for me

I agree with you guys.
Poseidon and Aphrodite were empty characters to me. Even Hera could have been better. Why include Poseidon at all? I think the person I like the most was Demeter.
I just think that the portrayals were off for all Gods.

The ending was a disappointment for me

@ Devann- yeah the eating the gods thing was weird. It was Cronos' thing. Not the Olympians

@ Deanna - I agree with your thoughts on Apollo
