This sounds really good! To my TBR. I think one of those days that shelf gonna have a breakdown and start cussing. Lol, I wouldn't be surprised.

I couldn't agree more! Anytime something gets too popular (like series), that usually means it's time to switch it up :)

*BLUSHES* BTW, did you see I finally got the books! Your inscriptions made me cry!

That blows, I know skimming sometimes is inevitable but to have to skip through whole parts just to get to the main part really sucks. I probably would have given up already, so more power to you!
I've been absent for awhile for a variety of reasons. I guess the primary reason is cause I popped out a child. (Hello world!) so I've had a few things to do. But as most of you know, sleeping isn't one of them. So I've read... Omg Belkis. I'm an Elizabeth Hunter nut now. I don't think I've been this in love with an author since T. Mafi! Just finished Baojia & Natalies story in
. L.O.V.E. I just love their story! Please tell me she's continuing with this series? What about Ben? Tenzin? Deirdre? It can't end!! **pulling my hair in frustration** I'm onto
while also reading
.

JU has tons of great reviews and it's t he one that I've had my eye on for a while without even realizing that it was book 2 to Gemini. Moving JU to my ASAP shelf :)
Donna wrote: "I've been absent for awhile for a variety of reasons. I guess the primary reason is cause I popped out a child. (Hello world!) so I've had a few things to do. But as most of you know, sleeping isn'..."YAY Donna!! First of all OMGOMGOMG CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW BABY!! WOW! That's so wonderful. Children are such a blessing :) and yeah, you're pretty much not going to be getting much sleep for the first few months, but SO worth it. And YAY! you're an Elizabeth Hunter obsessed fan now too!! See?! Told you LOL! She's freaking fantastic! And yes, I stalk her website a lot and she's planning on continuing with EM in future. But as she says, the stories and characters have to speak to her and move her to tell their story :) for now she's writing the next book in her Cambio Springs series, another PNR which is also really good (of course hahahaha) I've read it and fallen in love with it as well (big surprise there right?) the prequel novella
to it had me falling so hard for it while in tears that I started book 1
as soon as it released and was completely smitten by the end. Wonderful characters and again, a nice and unique take on shifters in case you want to give it a try. For me it's not even a question now, ever. If EH wrote it, I'm reading it. Same as anything Colleen Hoover. Automatic must reads for me. I think you said you've read The Genius and the Muse by EH too, so you know how much LOVE I feel for that book. Strongly recommend to anyone wanting an amazing contemporary story :) So happy to have you back in our discussions Donna, and again SO HAPPY FOR YOU and your new baby!!!

I have Fathomless sitting in my kindle but have yet to get to it so I'll be very interested to know what you think of it when you're done reading it. Keep us posted on both please :)

Was waiting for it to come out as soon as I saw the synopsis for it and then *swoon* when I saw the bookcover! And fell insanely in love with it when I started reading it. Such an interesting writing style and narratives and premise, cannot gush enough over These Broken Stars, honestly. SO excited over the release of book 2 for this author and hoping we get another fantastic story :) OMG THAT NEW BOOKCOVER!!

Congrats Donna! I didn't know we were getting a new member!!! Whoohoo!!!
Anyone read Elantris? I just got it out the library today, no idea if it's actually any good, but looks interesting

Tasha wrote: "Anyone read Elantris? I just got it out the library today, no idea if it's actually any good, but looks interesting"Never heard of this one Tasha, but it does look interesting though.
Ekaterine wrote: "Sara wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Finished , Oh I LOVED it!!! It was sooooo good and amazing and heart wrecking and beautiful. Totally worth every tear. *sigh* C..."Similar idea but so so many differences and writing. Go for it.
So I picked up
but haven't even started it yet. I'm so stressed out, we just got our notice that we need to find a new place, and it's going to be rather difficult with some of the requirements and being unprepared for moving costs and expenses plus summers are brutal for us as my boyfriend is a drum teacher so his students go on vacation. Ugh so I've been looking at craigslist and zillow and I just wanna read. I'm also wanting to read something else I'm still in my contemp mood but for tattoos and MC clubs lol.

But as most of you know,..."Lol. Thanks Belkis! Yes- this is my 3rd girl, so I'm prepared to read lots while she's sleeping. Or not. ;)
Gosh! Just finished
. Unreal. Just so sad how horrific Tenzins life has been. I know it's fiction, but it makes me glad that she's found her "new family" in Gio, B, Carwyn, Ben, etc. With that being said, I am definitely reading anything that she writes! Yes, just like my obsession with Colleen Hoover! (These ladies are amazing authors!) up next will be her Cambio series.

And I can completely understand wanting to shut yourself away and just read! Lol. Hope you find something soon. Have you read
? The 3rd book just came out & is a pretty good MC book. Also the MC club books by Bella Jewel?
Donna wrote: "I've been absent for awhile for a variety of reasons. I guess the primary reason is cause I popped out a child. (Hello world!) so I've had a few things to do. But as most of you know, sleeping isn'..."Congrats Donna!!! Are you girls doing alright? Welcome to the world, little one!

Belkis wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Erin wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Finished , Oh I LOVED it!!! It was sooooo good and amazing and heart wrecking and beautiful. Totally worth ev..."Me too! I saw it about this time last year and fell in love with the cover and the idea. I was waiting like crazy for it to be published, and when finally it came out I got cold feet. Most of the time my high hopes are crushed pretty soon and also I didn't know it was a standalone. I try to stay away from unfinished series and heartache (not that it's working out great for me.) Every time I opened my kindle there it was all pretty and whatnot and I gave in. Thank God I did. It was really wonderful journey and love both characters something fierce. The writing was so beautiful it stole my breath away. OMG, the second cover is gorgeous, I can't wait to get my hands on it.
Sara wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Sara wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Finished , Oh I LOVED it!!! It was sooooo good and amazing and heart wrecking and beautiful. Totally worth ev..."I started, Sarah. I'm kind of disappointed. I expected little more from it. The writer spends so much time making sure we understand why they fell in love and how right it is, she doesn't take any risks and story looses feel of forbiddance. Compared to Unteachable this one is a child's play.

I noticed none of the other MC club books seem to compare to Reapers, they are all fantasy like and not really explaining the club aspect, I kind of dig the club aspect and want to see more of the women interacting with the club while doing their love story you know ?
Movie definitely sucks.
Ekaterine wrote: "The Cover Contessa wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Erin wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Finished , Oh I LOVED it!!! It was sooooo good and amazing and hear..."Everyone's raving about TBS. think I will give it ago to get my mind out of EH world...

All her loses are so sad. My heart kept breaking and crying for her. I desperately want her to finally get her HEA. So we'll have to be patient and wait it out to see if EH gives us another EM book soon. But in the meantime I'll patiently await the release of the next Cambio Springs book. And yay! You're going to read it :) so know we'll be able to discuss it and share feelings about it! While we also wait for her to write book 3 for The Scribe! And on a similar note super excited over the upcoming release of Colleen Hoover's Ugly Love!!!
Danielle wrote: "So I picked up but haven't even started it yet. I'm so stressed out, we just got our notice that we need to find a new place, and it's going to be rather difficult with so..."Oh Danielle, I'm so sorry :( I hope you find a place soon. How inconsiderate of them to do that to you without more notice. I think you mentioned reading
have you read the rest of the books in the series?
or maybe
I haven't read any of them yet though, just saw that they were MC books. I am planning on reading many of them in the future LOL! Like Reaper's MC series & Dragon's Lair :)

Well
just came out and I HAD to dive into it right away so that's what I'm listening to :)
Picked up
haven't started yet. It looked good so I'm setting
which I'll probably read after Undeniable because I wanted to read that first.

Reapers have been there the others are not.

Huh, I tagged you in the picture on FB!! I shall make sure it went! The package was a bit ripped up, thankfully the books were good :)

& I can't stop balling my eyes out! My husband was conveniently ignoring me last night. Please tell me
isn't so heart wrenching!
Belkis wrote: "Danielle wrote: "So I picked up but haven't even started it yet. I'm so stressed out, we just got our notice that we need to find a new place, and it's going to be rather ..."I planned on reading Dragons Lair too. If you get to It first, please let me know how it is.

It's a process for her as you can imagine but very well done. So glad you're enjoying Cambio Springs :)

I agree with everyone who is moving
up on their TBR list. It's at my library so I'll be requesting it today. Now the question is should I read the book or listen to the audiobook?? Suggestions?I'm currently reading
and I gotta say I'm enjoying it. I don't much like Lucky, but it's through her POV that the demon world comes into play, and it's a very interesting place.

The narration is done as the book is in 3 POVs and they're all great :) I have both the audio & the eBook for this one as I usually do for any books I end up loving.

, for a free book it surprised me. Haven't managed to read on in the series yet though
