Good to know. You & I are often on the same page for likes and dislikes. Thx

That's too bad. I like everything Joe Hill has done except for some of his short stories.















I was a little disappointed w/that Alpha Pack book. It was my least favorite of the series.

I liked it, mostly because there wasn't the fighting of the mating. Not sure what I think of the larger conspiracy.











How is Perdition compared to her other books? Same with Holly Black's new one.

Perdition was good, set in the same world as her Sirantha Jax series, even has a character from that series that shows up in this one.
The Coldest Girl in Coldtown ended up dnf for me. I find Black to be hit or miss for me, this one was a miss.

Did you like Tithe,Valiant, and Ironsides?

Tithe was dnf for me, but I did like her Curse Workers series.

Forgot about the Curse Workers series.
I think I liked that book...

I liked all three Tithe I think was the weakest in the bunch

yea I was a bit bummed I didn't like it that much. oh well. maybe he's just not my type of author.


I wasn't sure at first but now I'm about half way through and it is pretty good.

I hate to say this, but I am glad to see someone else not like Bound by Night. I felt like I was the only one.
Hope you get out of your slump soon!

I could probably go on a tangent about how annoyed I am by this book. I can not believe this was a Larissa Ione book. Dreadful world building and character building. If it had been a new author I may have finished it but seriously? How can you build a world like in LOD & build a character like Reseph & then hand me this crud-o-la between Riker and Nicole (who is TSTL, IMO)? In one moment she's all "He's a brutal murderer" & then 2-3 paragraphs later she's crushing on him cuz he's such a great guy. What? When? Why? How did we get there? My biggest diappointment this year. :(
AND apparently I did just go on a tangent. LOL
She better get her mojo back for
[bookcover:Reaver|11512718]or I'm gonna cry like a little girl.

If this was a new author for me, I wouldn't have been so disappointed, but since I know that Ione can do better it was more so.


I'm still on book 7 but this series can do no wrong IMO.



Problems, problems, problems… Solutions?
Hannah Lane, the seven year old girl we remember from The Power, The Miracle and The Dream, is now 22 years old and a “Pulitzer Prize winning photographer and renowned peace activist” (Ch. 1). She is with a National Geographic team that has just landed on Mars, and has become officially the first woman to set foot on the planet. Hannah has come a very long way since her loosing childhood days as an asthmatic, but how exactly did she get here? Was it really the secret of “the power within … [her] … mind” (Ch. 12) that brought her to these heights?
The Only Way Out: Forgiveness - The Path To Peace & Happiness takes us deeper into the spiritual philosophy set out in De Lene’s earlier book, concentrating on our desire to hurt others, and the solution of reconciliation through absolution. We can never really be at peace unless we are willing to forgive wrong. In this book De Lene digs deeper into a metaphysical view of the world, particularly the idea of God, however, the philosophy presented is not at all ‘orthodox’ religion. De Lene instead derives his inspiration from the non-fiction book A Course In Miracles (Helen Schucman, Foundation for Inner Peace:__ 3rd ed.:__ 2007). De Lene’s book is an unusual blend of novel and teaching manual, and is a very enjoyable and easy way of looking deeper into philosophy.

Swammped again with work so I am reduced to listening to

I kind of like it but this two angels or whatever on Justin's shoulders is just odd. I am also trying to figure out what Tessa brings to the story??
Also the narrator is pretty good she sounds like someone I have heard before though...I should probably look into that.
