This was one of the ones where I am out of step with most other people - I felt it dragged, and didn't enjoy a lot of it :-( Hope you enjoy it more than me, Bette!

It's fun how we are all different and respond differently to books.

K | 1143 comments So I just finished Fable by Chanda Hahn . OH MY GOD! I HATE YOU, TEAGUE! And why Jared? Just why?? Lol, safe to say I bloody loved the third instalment of the Unfortunate Fairytale series and can't wait to read the next one! Just as soon as I finish City of Heavenly Fire (The Mortal Instruments, #6) by Cassandra Clare , which I am sure is going to send me on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, as well!

Jared is just so... Bloody perfect in an imperfect way and even I had a little crush on him and so... Heart broken. Waaa! Oh I'm bracing myself for City of Heavenly Fire. I am only on page 106 and think it's going to be epic!

Thanks Marianne. The books are soooo big and I'm such a slow reader I think I will just read a few reviews and catch up on the story that way :)
