I'm looking forward to Monday!

Tracy | 223 comments I have this on hold at the library but it will be forever before I get it.


message 5: by Lys (new)

Lys (lysrowan) I'm gonna sit this one out. I'll miss you guys this week :(. But maybe I can finish remodeling my room. :)

Sorry you didn't like these ones Alyssia :(

You can pick what we read next if you want...we still have Jekyll and we had talked about the Iron Fey series. Was there anything else?

I would be up for Jekyll or Iron Fey series. We also talked about Slave to Sensation (Psy-Changeling, #1) by Nalini Singh

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one :)


message 9: by Lys (new)

Lys (lysrowan) We had also talked about the Study series.

Any and all of the above sound great to me. :)

I've been getting so much painting done though, so I don't mind sitting out either. Although I do miss you.

Lol, I forgot about that one, too.

Jekyll (Hyde, #2) by Lauren Stewart The Iron King (The Iron Fey, #1) by Julie Kagawa Slave to Sensation (Psy-Changeling, #1) by Nalini Singh Magic Study (Study, #2) by Maria V. Snyder

Here's a list, though we'll probably forget which thread it is in. I think we should do Jekyll and the Study series first to get them out of the way since that's only three books total. Both the other series are longer.


message 11: by Lys (new)

Lys (lysrowan) Jekyll, poison study, magic study, fire study, iron king? Or...?

I need to read Magic Study (Study, #2) by Maria V. Snyder before we read Poison Study. I'm up for reading all of that.

Sheri | 13547 comments Mod
Sounds good to me. That would give you two weeks to read Poison Study, Leigh, while we do the last GT book and then Jekyll.


message 14: by Lys (new)

Lys (lysrowan) You have that backwards... Poison Study is the first one.

I have both of them but I couldn't remember which one was first.

How many chapters/day?


message 17: by Sheri, Bookworm (new) - rated it 3 stars

Sheri | 13547 comments Mod
20 chapters - 5 a day? I think that's what we did with the other books.

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
That works.

Here we go again. Kate getting into trouble Henry saving her. What is going to happen to Henry? Who is the Henry in Kate's visions. Is it Cronus or Calliope? Walter knew what was going on with Kate and didn't tell anyone. What is up with that? Why is Ava his favorite child?

So far I don't like this one quite as well as the others - we will see how it goes after a few more chapters. I think the big thing bothering me - and we mentioned it before - is Kate's attitude that the whole world is depending on her shoulders. Every thought she has and every action she takes is based on the fact that everything is her fault, no one else is to blame, and only she can save the world. It's really annoying.

I hate, hate, hate Walter. I know he's Zeus, but he's an ass. I hate Ava, too. Also the fact that Kate is already thinking about forgiving her even though she doesn't even have the baby back yet!

I can't stand Walter either. I think Ava will redeem herself. Kate definitely has a "God" complex. Only she can save everyone.

My daughter has read through the Iron Fey series and loved it! She is ready for me to start it.

Sweet :) I told my son he should read it. He likes Fantasy.

I can't wait to start it!

Finally, Kate realized what her mom did to her wasn't that great!

I'm going to get a little behind this week but I will catch up on Friday. I don't think I'll have time today to read at all :/

I'm still not really feeling this one. A lot is happening, and there is a lot of action, but there is something off to me I can't put my finger on. Henry is still so enigmatic...I can't get a feel for him. Maybe that's what is missing - the emotional connection with the characters. What are you thinking?

Lol, yeah I hate how she was never really mad at her mom for making her go through all that, though she was mad at Walter at one point for not stepping in.

Henry has a perpetually lock on his emotions. I was hoping we would see a little more from him. It is a shame to say but I like Cronus more than Walter. They have no loyalty, respect or commitment to their spouses. Walter threw Calliope away for any woman that passed by. Calliope wants Henry and Cronus wants Kate. One big dysfunctional family!
I don't trust Dylan! Why didn't Walter let anyone see who was on the traitor list? Is he trying to hide something?

I finished. I was a little surprised about a few things(view spoiler) Henry finally shows some emotion. Even though, I am not happy with what Ava did I can understand it. Walter had to make some tough choices and that is not always easy. He finally shows his softer side. Who knew he had one?

Are we starting Jekyll Monday?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what was decided on.

Just making sure.

Finished. The ending was okay, but I still didn't like this one as well as the first two. I think it was just the lack of feeling I got for any of the characters. Even Henry, who did come around in the end with his emotions, was still so off-Standish. I hated that (view spoiler).
