Wow, okay. I don't know, I've resigned myself to reading books 1 and 2 this summer, but now I'm wondering if I should just cliff's notes book 2 and skip to 3! LOL Just kidding, but honestly I hate it when authors do the huge time lapse with main characters because the loss of so much time together drives me batty. Wish she could have gone back to Jamie where they left off when she went back through the stones again!! =)

God, that's what I'm beginning to think! lol

Hope you like this one better than Brooke, I'm still on the fence with whether or not to start it. =/

One of my all-time favorite angel series, keep reading because it's an amazing trilogy!

Thank you! And ugh, are you serious?! lol See, that's why I'm worried about going past the first book, because I absolutely ADORE Jamie beyond words, and if he has to go through absolute hell only to then (view spoiler)[ lose her for TWENTY years, I don't know if I could take it. That just tears my heart out to think about, what was the point in all of his suffering?? He gets to go through his worst nightmare and then lose the love of his life and not see his own child grow up, that's great. And I read another review that said he has a child with someone else at some point, and that Claire marries someone else and is still pining over Frank the whole time...I just picture myself getting very angry as I read on in this series. I get way too invested in my favorite characters and stories that just never give them a true happy ending hurt too much to read. The idea of them both moving on with someone else during their separation (or whenever it happened) just tarnishes the whole romance factor!

Has anyone read the Outlander series? I'm newly addicted to the tv series and decided to look ahead at the books (I know, I know, but this one is just WAY to hard on the nerves to not be prepared in advance), and now I'm wondering if I want to watch past this season. I know about the gut-wrenching season 1 ending, it's some comments I've read about later in the series that concern me. Don't judge, I just want to know what I'm getting into and I don't care if it "spoils" the plot. I am full-on head over heels for Jamie, there are just no words, and I can't go farther if this all goes to hell!!

Ugh, that sucks hon. I haven't read any of her recent stuff, so I can't say anything about those, but she's always been one of those authors whose work I loved, but I knew it was cheesy or overly dramatic dialogue/character narration for a good part of the story. Sorry this one isn't appealing to you, either, maybe just put it aside and go to one of your go-to authors!

Oh that's like an hours-long process, who has time for that?! LOL I've given up, I used to be all organized about putting certain books in their own shelf depending on the genre, but now they're all just in the good ole' TBR. =/

Sylvia wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Rachel wrote: "I think I'm going to dig back into . I read the first two three years ago but ..."

LOL This is my dilemma, too. I had a "Must read next" shelf on here, but I added so many books that it essentially became TBR part 2. =)

Oh wow, really? Well, it'll be a plane flight for me either way, so when I do go it'll be a big trip regardless. Hopefully some day we'll be at a signing together!

Teresa wrote: "I'm reading It's good but books set in Romania always crack me up. I'm Romanian so it just makes me laugh the way authors describe the country and people."

Oh I love this series!!

Yeah, if there's not something significant to make this unique I'm not going to be impressed. I really am just curious to see how she handles the male POV since it's SO different personality-wise from Ana, this may be a train wreck! LOL

I read Flight a ways back, it was just okay IMO. I gave it a 3.5, wasn't one that wowed me but it was decent. Probably no rush to get to it unless you just want to get it off the list like Sara's doing! LOL

So hope to go to BEA with you one day! It's a pipe dream, but I'll keep hoping!!

Yeah, after reading a lot more books since, Ana's voice in the books kinda drives me batty now when I go back to it, but they're like empty calories to me when I read them. I enjoy it, but I know there are thousands of better things I could be reading. LOL

I need to get back to the Reeds, I miss them! =)

MadameZelda wrote: "I can't believe there will be another "50 Shades of Grey" book with Christian Grey's POV. Milking it, aren't we?"

I do feel like she's milking it, but I'm so curious to see how she handles the male POV. Could be a huge fail or a fun add-on to the series, we shall see!

Finished up , I always love Quinn's work and this was really good! Want to get back to Dixie and Gavin, though, it's torture being back in the series with their drama left hanging!!

Next up for me is for review and Jessica has FINALLY gotten the rest of her serial done so I'm diving back into and !!

I so wish I could get into those series, neither one grabbed me like I wanted them to. One day I'll read them and love them, I'm sure! =)
