What Are You Reading? 2015
Mod
high and nothing is really even coming close, which is kind of depressing. I've read
which was great in that unexpected kind of way, but could have used a bit more steam. Working on
now, which is good. May need to toss in a YA switch-up here, I'm really missing my YA reads but I'm so far behind on blog contemp reviews that I can't seem to squeeze them in. This summer, maybe!! *crosses fingers*

Oh yeah Erin and it has certainly gotten to me. I have had to stop cause I have to catch my breath.
and at the very end and it is breaking my heart!

Just finished
. Why the heck did it take me so long to read it?! I swear EH can do no wrong. Absolutely will read anything she writes. Ah it was sooo gooood I finished it in a day. Thanks for the rec Belkis! Now, I need to find something equally as good to read....

I loved Until Trevor more than Until November but it was still good. Until Lilly we all know kinda what's going to happen.

But I'm a stay at home mom of 1 and for the most part he will let me read. Today he's a bit under the weather so I've been tending to him but he actually napped today, must be sick, and I was able to read for a while.

. Holy crap! Why did I ever stop reading this series?? VA was awesome!..."Bloodlines is so much better except TFH was basically a filler. I expect SS (Silver Shadows) to be epic based on the ending of TFH. I feel like Sydney has a bit more maturity to her than Rose did.

Erin I never read Covenant, and idk if I will based on hearing it's a carbon copy, but it took me reading book 1 2x to get into it. I checked it out from the lib barely could get into it, rechecked it out months later and pushed through the boringness of it and blew through the series after that. Yea I had a thing for the whole Demitri and Rose can't have a relationship thing. I liked the series. It's just one of those that you have to push through the first book.

Book 3 is really where the series picks up and becomes more enjoyable. Also there is Barrons and well more info on him.
Reading
I want Jules to drop off the face of the earth, didn't like her in Until Trevor and definitely don't like her mucking up Cash's life.

Right now it is a bad way. Gran is a real piece of work. I think it will end happy, but I got to get there.

V..."I have to agree with liking Bloodlines more than VA. I liked VA, but think Sydney/Adrian's story is more mature and well developed. Excited for SS!
Yeah I love Adrian in this series. I'm really excited to read his story. I feel bad for him cause Rose treats him like shit. But honestly, I love Rose and Dimitri. It's definitely like Covenant with Aiden and Alex being all forbidden and crap. But it's def just as good, too.
Loved
highly recommend to everyone. Think I will read
now for a quick read.
Annie wrote: "Yeah I love Adrian in this series. I'm really excited to read his story. I feel bad for him cause Rose treats him like shit. But honestly, I love Rose and Dimitri. It's definitely like Covenant wit..."Omg Rose sooooo did and it got to the point that I wasn't sure who I wanted her to be with more because Adrian was just sooo sweet. But I think it's really good with Sydrian, they compliment each other really well, and they are more adult. More responsible, no one would ever put Adrian and Responsible in the same sentence in VA but they do in BLs....I find that interesting and shows he grew.

I've just finished the Trylle Trilogy by Amanda Hocking and loved it! A bit dystopian, a bit fantasy, with romance thrown in.

Candace wrote: "I've just finished the Trylle Trilogy by Amanda Hocking and loved it! A bit dystopian, a bit fantasy, with romance thrown in."Have you read her My Blood Approves series yet? Probably my favorite Hocking series.
I finished last night
and I think I may start
but I'm not sure yet if I want to do that or read something else so I'm going to look at my shelves first and see if I can find something that interests me more.
Sara wrote: "Loved highly recommend to everyone. Think I will read now for a quick read."Oh I'm so excited Sara :) I bought it yesterday and I'm almost done with A Different Blue and LOVING it too. Amy Harmon has now joined my favorite authors shelf.
Donna wrote: "Think I will start either

I have only read the one of hers but I own three or four. Going to get to them soon.

She is awesome! I'm happy she is on our side. :D

Finished
and really enjoyed it. Especially the MC. It's so rare that MC makes me proud. *sigh* Dunno why, but I expected this to be a standalone, no such luck. TBS spoiled me. Up-next
Donna wrote: "Think I will start either or "Both are so good!
I'm a bit grumpy so I think I'm going to read
and save
for later....
Sara wrote: "Loved highly recommend to everyone. Think I will read now for a quick read."I a 20% in and the parallels to the real Bonnie and Clyde are starting to come out. I didn't read the end first on this one, but I'm starting to get a really bad feel about it. Maybe I'll put it down for a while and read some werewolves.

It ends positive, but I was sure on the edge of my seat a few times.
Oh cool. First you said you were worried. Then the TV reporter called them "Bonnie & Clyde" I became very unhinged.I just gotta know - does Gran get what's coming to her? I love books with massive payback.

She gets what's coming to her. I wanted her to get more than she got, though.

Exactly. When a the good character doesn't chew the bad character out enough, I sit around and re-write the scene in my head. Is that the sign of a sick mind?
Okay, finished
and holy cliffhanger!!!! Omg, I'm so upset. My heart has been shredded!!!! Now onto
! God, I love this series!

LOL or the sign of a creative mind...
Maybe. I love coming up with revenge speeches. Sometimes I even say them out loud...if no one is home.

it's hilarious. Loved the series so much. I also LOVE LOVE
SO good and FUNNY, it's PNR but hilarious, hot, and really good.
Mod
I have read both of those Belkis and really didn't get into either one. I am currently listening to Second Grave on the Left right now and it's slow going.
Belkis wrote: "Tracy wrote: "I am still reading The Tied Man and Killing Sarai but I am in need of a GOOD humor book. Something that will make me LOL. These books are killing me and I need a little bit of a buffe..."I second Charley Davidson it is awesome.
Danielle wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Tracy wrote: "I am still reading The Tied Man and Killing Sarai but I am in need of a GOOD humor book. Something that will make me LOL. These books are killing me and I need a little..."OMG yes, love CD!
Mod
She is just lacking something for me. I am trying to like it because you guys love it but its just not happening.

Annie wrote: "Okay, finished and holy cliffhanger!!!! Omg, I'm so upset. My heart has been shredded!!!! Now onto ! God, I love this series!"Yeah, both VA and Bloodlines are great series. You're lucky the VA series is complete so you don't have to wait for the next book after the cliffhanger. The Fiery Heart (Bloodlines) ended on a major cliffhanger and I've been waiting months for the next book to find out what happens.
Mod
I remembered that I have
from the library and i thought
was hilarious. I am also going to try
or
and one of those should work.

I will not be reading book 3..."
I have book 3 queued up to read, but like you it's not pulling me back in. I do like it but I see your point about the slow-moving plot.
