My copy of the Lore audiobook showed up a couple of days ago and I couldn't resist, so I just finished listening to it and it was just as good this time around as it was the first time! Loved it!

Okay, that's good to know. At some point, once I make a dent in the current run of ARCs that just came in, I'll probably revisited her universe.

I'm not sure yet. I'm on the page because it seems like people didn't like it nearly as much as the Infernal Devices, and I'm on the fence about whether I would like a story based on HP fan fiction. I will probably read them at some point though because I honestly loved this trilogy.

For those of you looking for good Urban Fantasy, I just finished reading the second book in this trilogy: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

I previously read the first book, ICE, in September, and I'm about to start the third one. I have read two other series by her, one of which is more sci-fi fantasy, and the other which is also about shapeshifting, although the universe of this one and that one are supposedly separate? I haven't seen any crossovers yet. She also publishes under the name L.E. Horn.

I ended up loving The Infernal Devices! That third book was wonderful and I was curious how she was going to handle the love triangle. For the time, I think she definitely made the right choice. It definitely fit with who they all were. I had a hard time not crying while listening to that ending while in public, lol!

Okay thanks! I'll keep looking for books that fit unused prompts!
