I'm 50% in and I'm pretty mixed on it. There are some things I love and some I sort of hate lol. So sort of all over the place at this point! But the story keeps you guessing which is a good thing. How about you?

I'm only 11% in and to begin, I thought the voice was decent, but I'm starting to get a little weary of (almost) nothing but narration.


message 309: by David (new)

David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 129 comments Yes! That was one of my major issues with Cassie's POV. Also tons of backstory in between the present. Too much at one time in my opinion. Later it becomes apparent why the author chose to do that, but still... Cassie's POV is my least favorite (there are many other POVs coming soon ;) although a number of people I'm reading with have liked hers the best, so to each their own! We are going a buddy read over in my fan/YA group in case you want to join in:

I won't join in, as I have around 5% of my novel to write this week to make this latest one a wrap, so I'm going to be mega slow at reading until that's out of the way, but I've joined the group so I can pop in and out and comment when I (eventually) get done, thanks.

oh no, another one with only narration! UGH! That was The Testing for sure!

I know, I was looking for a PB to read alongside this one, and I spotted The Testing sitting there, but kinda went: Um ... not two like this, me thinks. I did try another PB this morning, but you already know how that turned out, Brook. :P
Now I'm trying to decide if I should read KA's The Gathering whilst I read 5th Wave, or if I should check out something like Jodi Meadow's Incarnate, as I have that sitting upstairs and waiting to be read. I could use some more Lirium really. He urges me onward, but without taking up too much of my time.

I kinda gave up. But then I seem to be going through a zero tolerance stage in my reading lately. Once you've lost me, you've lost me. Must be because my head's elsewhere right now.

I just started The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden, #1) by Julie Kagawa ooooooooooo Julie is good! LOVE her work!


message 321: by J.A. (new)

J.A. Belfield (jabelfield) Okay, I ended up picking up PODs by Michelle K. Pickett today and opened the front page. I'm only on page 14, but this is a good start considering my reading moods lately, because so far I want to keep going.

I'm also attempting to read Renhala (Renhala, #1) by Amy Joy Lutchen because I'm on the blog tour, but I'm VERY not sure on my opinion of it right now (okay, I am, but I don't want to be hasty before I've decided if it's worth the perseverance it's taking).

message 332: by J.A. (new)

J.A. Belfield (jabelfield) This morning I opened up Gameboard of the Gods (Age of X, #1) by Richelle Mead to check out, but then I spotted Promise (Debt Collector, #7) by Susan Kaye Quinn had gone live on Amazon and so got totally sidetracked the second I purchased and opened that one.

Piercing the Fold is awesome. I just don't have a lot of time to read print books so they take me longer to read. Kasadya: Hellhound Awakened was amazing! and The Crimson Clan from what I understand is back in editing cause the editor did a really bad job.. I do have reviews up for the two I finished though..The Crimson Clan - http://cusreviews.blogspot.com/2013/0...

Kasadya - http://cusreviews.blogspot.com/2013/0...

I hoped that helped >^.^<
