I know it's early in the month guys, but I wanted everybody to have plenty of time to get in their suggestions, and get the poll up ☺

Please suggest titles that are either first in a series or stand alones. Up to 3 suggestions each.

(You can check what we've already read here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... )

Thanks!

Thanks Rachel ☺ These Broken Stars (Starbound, #1) by Amie Kaufman doesn't release until the 10th of December though so we probably won't be able to do that one :(

Your welcome, Sarah! But it cannot! I just bought myself a copy today at the local bookstore! :P

I think they're being naughty...
The US release date is December 10th 2013, and the UK release date is January 23rd 2014. It's still only available for pre-order on amazon and book depository etc. and it's still on Netgalley as being released December 10th - https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/sho...
It's a good book though, I hope you enjoy it ☺

Oh, well I live in Australia so it must have already been published here! Ahaha! Oops. I'm sorry, I didn't realise!

Well, I'll change my nominations to: Cinder (Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer Intertwined (Intertwined, #1) by Gena Showalter and Everneath (Everneath, #1) by Brodi Ashton then! :)

ha ha! the release date is apparently November 20th in Australia so you've still got it early ☺ It's a really good book though! I really liked it ☺

Aha. I must have gotten lucky then! Aha. Maybe Dymocks didn't get the memo! :)

Its sounds amazing! I am excited to read it! Did you get in on Ntegalley? :)

Sounds like that is a good bookstore to shop at! I had it from Netgalley and read it in October, and it was really good! It was really sad in one place though so you might need tissues :( I'm really interested to read the next one in the series, even though it isn't about the same people.

My appreciation for it has grown! :)) I have heard lots of good things about it! Oh, well I just keep a box of tissues near me then! Thanks for warning me! :P Oh, is it one of the series that every book can read as a standalone?

I don't think we can do these broken stars until it's release everywhere. The UK release date isn't until January, so we might be able to do it in February.

Thanks for your suggestions Hannelore, Mei and Rachmi ☺

Aha. Okay! :)


message 28: by Rachmi (new)

Rachmi  | 4882 comments I read what you guys wrote above, I just couldn't wait until it's released :) And buddy read it on February will be a great idea, I will consider it as a gift for myself since it's my birthday :D

Mei (meijey) | 3810 comments I'd like to join even though I have to wait for a few more months 'til the next book! Everyone seems to love it! :) Then it's available to nominate it for the GBR, perhaps!
