Welcome, Janessa (again) and Alexander! How are you liking Allegiant so far, Alexander?


message 455: by Alexander (new)

Alexander (alexmata) | 32 comments For the ones who have not read allegiant do not read the following. (Spoilers)

So far is best book of the series, I have like a 100 pages to go (yay!). I think that changing the narration type for the last book was a bold move by Roth. I also like how they discover this whole new world and realize that their existence is just an experiment. Is pretty sick.


message 456: by Olivia (new)

Olivia McCloskey (brewingupbooks) | 2470 comments Mod
I should warn you - the ending is a bit of a shocker. But I've heard phenomenal things about it and I can't wait to start it sometime soon!


message 457: by Alexander (new)

Alexander (alexmata) | 32 comments Is pretty cool so far. Also, I don't know if you're read Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare, is a good book, is my Favorite book out of The Infernal Devices series


message 458: by Olivia (new)

Olivia McCloskey (brewingupbooks) | 2470 comments Mod
I just finished it not that long ago. I both loved and hated the ending though. I wasn't expecting the whole situation with Jem and his illness. Being a team Will fan, I was so hopeful when I began reading the epilogue that I would absolutely love the ending, but my hopes were a little dashed when I finished.


message 459: by Alexander (new)

Alexander (alexmata) | 32 comments The Epilogue was sad, but, I liked how the plot changed after a couple of years and the way that Jem and Tessa ended; It was a win-win for Tessa because he had Will and end up with Jem. I can't wait for CoHF and see what will happen with Tessa


message 460: by Olivia (new)

Olivia McCloskey (brewingupbooks) | 2470 comments Mod
I think I'm glad that Tessa did end up with Jem, even though Will's death was too much for me. I feel like Jem deserved her most of all, out of all of the characters. I'm really excited to see how Clare decides to connect the two series.


message 461: by Alexander (new)

Alexander (alexmata) | 32 comments I read a snippet and Clary meets Tessa in CoHF. I hope Clare explain what will happen with Jem

Hi, Blair! Have you read the Infernal Devices or Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare? They might be something to look into.

Welcome, Christine! How do you like your Kobo? I've been thinking of purchasing a new ereader because my Nook is beginning to malfunction, but there are so many options that I'm not really sure where to look.

Alexander wrote: "I read a snippet and Clary meets Tessa in CoHF. I hope Clare explain what will happen with Jem"

Wow, that's a plot twist I definitely wasn't expecting. Must google immediately...

Thanks, Olivia :) I've had my Kobo for a few years now, though I chose it because it was the most readily available option in our bookstores. Kind of sad, really, because I've heard the new Glo has a light function so you can read with it in the dark (mine can't do anything of the sort). Have you thought about getting a Kindle?

I have read Clockwork Angel but confess I haven't gotten around to reading the next two. I know how beloved this series is and I probably should continue on with it. Thanks! I'm really looking forward to discussing books with everyone. Should be lots of fun!

Quite a few of my friends have recommended Kindles. I've spent the past few days researching the various models and reading reviews, trying to figure out which one would be best suited to my needs. I have also considered purchasing the new Nook Glo, but there are rumors that the entire Nook line will be discontinued by the end of this year, so that makes me a little hesitant to buy a nook. I think I'm going to investigate Kobos, though, since they are a reasonable price. How much are ebooks on a Kobo?

Christine (solipsisme) Olivia wrote: "Quite a few of my friends have recommended Kindles. I've spent the past few days researching the various models and reading reviews..."

Oh, yikes. I don't think there's a set price range for Kobo ebooks, because while some are definitely great deals ($2-$12), others are bordering on what I'd consider a bit pricey for an ebook ($15+) and aren't much less expensive then their hard copy. I guess it would depend on the books you'd be buying.

Sorry, haha. I don't think that helped much. xD

Dana Hey, my name is Dana, I'm 24 and live in the Great North. Obviously I love reading and just this year started actively reviewing. It's amazing how many free books you can get when you start giving feedback. I am always looking for friends on Goodreads as none of my real life friends love reading like I do. Favourite genres are Dystopian/Paranormal/Young Adult. I am currently taking online prerequisite courses in the hopes of eventually becoming a dental assistant. That's all for now folks!

message 483: by Padgett (new)

Padgett Lively My birthday is October 5 -which, I am told, is the most frequent b-date. I think because it is almost nine months after New Year's Eve.

My favorite book for right now is "Shadow of the Wind" by Carlos Ruiz Zafron. It is beautifully written.

I am usually not a big fan of biographies but am currently reading "The First American, The Life and Times of Benjamin Franklin." He was amazing.

I have a white pitbull terrier that we adopted last June. She is a lovey.

Thanks, d

Rusty Nugent (RustyNugent) | 1 comments My first horror movie was From Hell It Came!, I was two years old. Then, Trilogy of Terror with the late Karen Black. When I was three years old my parents brought me to see Jaws at the theater. I fall in love with that movie. And I found out my mother had a Readers Digest Condensed Book of Jaws by Peter Benchley. I begged her to read it to me all the time, until she told me that I needed to learn to read so I could read the book myself. In third grade, I was reading Jaws while the other kids were reading kid books. I saw Texas Chainsaw Massacre at the drive in I was age three. Then, I saw The Car staring James Brolin when I was age five. I loved the look of that demonic car.



Then came a little film called Star Wars. It changed my life. But The Car oddly enough is what started me writing. At age six I wrote a book for The Car it was about 4 page. In the third grade, I began writing more often and found it was to my liking and that my peers seemed to like it.



In the early 1980s, three horror films came that made an impact on me. An American Werewolf In London, The Howling, and Wolfen. Thus, my fascination with werewolves began.



When I met my girlfriend and lifemate, we discovered we both liked the same music and had an afinity for these creatures of the night. She begged me to write her a medieval werewolf story. We agreed that it shouldn't be the "typical" tired, traditional tale, so we thought, the werewolf always gets a bad wrap, so let's make him the hero, and thus, "Moonwarriors" was born.
