Marga  (margaraawr) | 1550 comments @Abbie - thank you! When will you start reading In The End though? So I'll finish In The After soon. :)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments Sarah's the one who has "In the end" I don't have a copy of it, so you'll have to ask Sarah. :)

We can both discuss "In the after" with you though, if you want to buddy read it and use the thread. :)

Hot Secrets (Tall, Dark & Deadly #1) by Lisa Renee Jones I'm guessing this will be pretty steamy as I know this author's other books are! 'Read Now' on Netgalley! ☺ https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/sho...

That is one book I won't be requesting... I couldn't finish the first book in the original series


message 716: by Tati (new)

Tati Yay! Just got approved for Tease by Amanda Maciel !


message 717: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
I haven't even tried the first series yet. I really liked Tease!


message 718: by Dana (new)

Dana | 887 comments What was the original series?


message 719: by Dana (new)

Dana | 887 comments lol I just read the description for tease. This whole time I thought (judging by the title and cover) that it was a book about a loose girl. lmfao

Born at Midnight (Shadow Falls, #1) by C.C. Hunter


message 721: by Dana (new)

Dana | 887 comments Oooooooooh Yeah I remember that series. I think I rated it a average of 3/5 for the series. I will admit it is a little young but I still liked it.


message 723: by Kate (last edited Apr 01, 2014 09:54PM) (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I was recently approved for Gorgeous by Paul Rudnick on Netgalley and Bleed Like Me by Christa Desir on Edelweiss. :)

I might try it. When were you thinking!? :)

Sounds good. Anyone interested?? :)


message 729: by Tati (new)

Tati The problem with this one for me, is that it's not the first in the series... So I guess I'll pass this one

Isn't it!? Well, if it is then I'm not in either. :)


message 731: by Tati (new)

Tati It's actually the fourth in this series: Unholy Alliance (Unholy Alliance #1) by Lacy Yager


message 732: by Abi (new)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments It sounded like a bit of a mess so i didn't bother getting it. Netgalley didn't say it was 4th in series though!


message 733: by rachel, x (new)

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 8401 comments Okay well count me out then. :)


message 734: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
You're right Tatiana, I'll add it to the series so its more obvious.


message 735: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) You may be able to read Beloved Enemy without reading the rest of the series, actually. Each book in the series is on a different couple, so they're a bit like companion novels. I'll be reading both novellas (Rival is the other) this month, so if anyone wants to give one of them a shot, let me know!


message 736: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Unholy Alliance is a really good book, by the way! If you're going to read any book in the series, read that one.

And HarperCollins just broke my heart... They turned down every request I made on Edelweiss"


Got turned down every time by HarperCollins on Edelweiss too. You're not alone! :D I'm 38% right now on NetGalley. Got approved for a bunch of books and been holding them up for the challenge.


message 738: by Tati (new)

Tati I'm 31.6% right now on NetGalley... If I read all the books I've planned, I'll be around 55% by the end of April :)


message 739: by Abi (last edited Apr 02, 2014 07:39AM) (new)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments Harpercollins depresses me because all 6 of my rejections on edelweiss are from them. :(

My netgalley ratio is at 90.2%. It should be 100% by the end of this month. :)


message 740: by Tati (new)

Tati I've decided to continue the ARC reading in May as well. My ratio is depressing me right now


message 741: by Marga (new)

Marga  (margaraawr) | 1550 comments Me too! My ratio on NetGalley is 25.9%, so far from 80%. :( I think I have 30+ ARCs to read. And then those ARCs turned out to be sequels of books I haven't read yet so my tbr-list just grow longer :/


message 742: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
That's the problem I always have - getting sequels and having to read the previous books too. I've stopped requesting them until I've read the first book though, got caught out by Under the Never Sky (Under the Never Sky, #1) by Veronica Rossi , which I didn't like, but had an ARC of the third. Really glad I read Arclight (Arclight, #1) by Josin L. McQuein before requesting the sequel as well because it was rubbish!


message 743: by Marga (new)

Marga  (margaraawr) | 1550 comments Well, I'll do that from now on. It was my fault anyway because I request books w/o reading the blurb just because then cover is pretty! Lol. I loved Under The Never Sky though ^_^

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
It's just annoying when you end up reading a rubbish series. I nearly didn't download 'in the end' but I figured it was the last book so I might as well read it.


message 745: by Marga (new)

Marga  (margaraawr) | 1550 comments Oh, you didn't like In The After? I'm going to read it. :/ I'm enjoying the Elemental Assassin series so far yaay


message 746: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
In the after was okay, it just wasn't great, and the main character was so stupid it was ridiculous.


message 748: by Amanda (new)

Amanda  (manka23) | 2337 comments Has anyone ever been approved for a book that was already archived? This just happened to me, pretty upsetting, because I really wanted to read that book and I got that email and then I was like YAY only to log in and find out that it's archived.


message 749: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
Yes. I think there's a glitch in the system that if you have a request pending, and the book is archived, it automatically approves you. It's happened to me several times, and there's nothing you can do about it. It's really annoying!

Simon & Schuster just declined me for all the books I requested from them on edelweiss. really wanted Sublime by Christina Lauren
