Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments The reveiws are all over the place for this one, so we need to make a pact to read #3 together no matter how we feel about this one - which I hope is going to be awesome!

I know! I read the first few pages of this that was at the end of Slammed, and I found Lake to be annoying.

Angela | 17461 comments I have the book on hold now! (: There are not that many holds so it shouldn't take long to come.

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments Whoot Angela. Yay!

I'm trying to not be nervous on how I'll like this one.

And yes, Lake can be annoying - lol. She proved that over and over in Slammed!


message 11: by Angela (new) - added it

Angela | 17461 comments Yes, but MORE annoying. I think I remember Gisbelle saying she didn't like her in this book.

I don't know if I am going to read 3 or not


message 16: by Becky (new) - added it

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments I love you guys! LOL. I think 3 will be better, and I'm hoping we'll be on the upswing of the star rating, but you never know. We'll just have to cling to Will. LOL.


Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Yes!!! Good time for me, so I am joining! I also give my word to read book 3.

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments The more we have the better our reading discussion usually is!! I love input from various people!!


Gisbelle | 25787 comments I didn't like this book. I'm looking forward to seeing your reactions.

I definitely noticed that in your review. Have you read #3?


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Yes, I have. It was much better :)


message 25: by Angela (new) - added it

Angela | 17461 comments Was it better than Slammed?


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Not really, but it was much, much better than Point of Retreat


message 27: by Angela (new) - added it

Angela | 17461 comments Good to know. (:

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Book 3 is mostly retelling of Slammed, just from Will's POV.


Ashlyn | 1842 comments I'm excited for this one! I'm going to definitely be reading three as well.

I didn't like slammed very well I only bought this one because it was on sale for 1.99 at the time and am curious about what will happen next. But ever since reading Walking Disaster I have no interest in reading a retelling from the guys POV so much so that (gasp) I haven't even read Losing Hope.


Gisbelle | 25787 comments I agree, Emily. Walking Disaster was so disappointing. But I think book 3 in Slammed series is much better comparing to Walking Disaster since there are some scenes that we didn't read about in Slammed.


Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Awe, Emily, Losing Hope was so good though.


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Vicki wrote: "Awe, Emily, Losing Hope was so good though."

So true! It's the best :)


message 34: by Angela (new) - added it

Angela | 17461 comments Was Losing Hope better than Hopeless? I still haven't read Losing Hope yet.


Gisbelle | 25787 comments yes, I believe it is :) I loved it so much better than Hopeless.


Emily | 1597 comments okay I may break down and read Losing Hope.

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments Yup, gonna be great! :-)


Sharlene (sharlenehuriwai) | 148 comments I might join this one if I can read Slammed in time.


Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Sharlene, that would be super! Slammed is a quick read!


Melissa I've been wanting to read this since I finished Slammed last month, so if school isn't boggling me down at the time, I'll join you guys as well :)

Angela | 17461 comments I don't think I'm going to get this in time. It's still not in transit. :(


Kathy | 7669 comments Angela, I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you! :D

Melissa, glad you can join us! :D
