Cerulean (AKA “Hobbit Blue”)
Loved it. Great resolution with the Ty & Nick & Zane thing. Great stride in the "beginning honest" about feelings thing. Julian Cross is a beast. Enjoyed seeing him in action. My favorite yet on this series.
I want to thank you for recommending Warriors Cross because it made a difference in my comprehension of Cameron and Julian and Preston! If I hadn't read it, I don't think I would have like either J or C.
:D That one was my favorite tooI loved Ty's and Julian's interaction (I have no idea how to call it). I was laughing all the time.
I did had a feeling Cam is little different from WC. I can't remember if he was that naive in there or not.
Cam was whiny like a little kid. He was naive in their book, but being close to professional agents amplified his baby attitude. Julian treated him like that too...but I enjoyed having one person not jaded by the system.Almost done with

Okay, here is my reading update. I haven't finished any books yet in the past few days, because I have an unusually large number of them all going at the same time(6). I usually only have 2-3 at the same time. I should have most of them done by Friday-Saturday so I will probably be adding several books on the same day at the end of the week.Still reading:

We were caught sneaking there few times :D
lol very funny! anyone been caught sneaking here?Question: How do you find out if book you read is on enemies shelf?
Melissa (ladybug) wrote: "lol very funny! anyone been caught sneaking here?"We had few spy alerts, but we need new guards. Those we have know are always eating. (That's what you get when you hire Hobbits!)
Melissa (ladybug) wrote: "How do you find out if book you read is on enemies shelf?"
Well, that was one of those sneakings (this time we weren't caught - we used very good camouflage paint ☺). You see, your co-captains sacrificed themselves and went behind enemy lines to make list of books enemy has read/is reading. So every time you gave us book title, we just check it on that list.
If you want to do it yourself, you would have to go to every team and see what members were reading. ☺

. this one is like a 2.5 or 2.75 stars to me. It was so shallow, formulaic, and predictable. I know the author is a new one, so I tried not to say this sucked, but it did!PAges 333

LOL.Actually, the title was really perfect about her relationship choices. She was born to a rich family, and to keep in that certain lifestyle she married a jackass and tried to turn a blind eye. So she was being stupid by choice---until she decided no more.
(Now you don't have to read the book :)
After reading my Maya Banks book, I was on a high. this book was like cold water and now I feel like I need something strong to take me back to happy land.
i am considering going off my Starter Plan and reading something like

No need to hurry, you're still in the lead. ☺
BTW, thanks for the info
Found it. I guess I shouldn't update spreadsheet after 11pm ☺
I'm on a high because I just bought a new kindle today to replace the one I sat on a few years ago :DWill hopefully try to take advantage of my good mood and finish some books :D
The only thing I'm jealous about your new toy is screen light. Let me know how it looks like. Paperwhite is only kindle I didn't see in person. (Local library has rest of them.)

Actually, this is only part of the big book, that this publisher split up in 3 parts so they can sell it as 3 books.
This is 'real' book.
Do you want me to use it as 3 or as 1 book?
I put it as 3 books only so I can tag then as owned. But for his challenge I can tag that big book as read (when I'm done with it ☺).
Mod
@Melissa ; I noticed you read
... I was realy disappointed in this book and I'm not sure if it was just my head-space at the time, but I couldn't concentrate on all the things going on. How did you find it?
At the rate I am going, I don't think this is going to be a good month for me with short books. I am glad I can read quickly and get a few big books in to keep my points in the Hobbit Game competitive.
