What Are You Reading? 2015
I went with a slightly lighter and more fun option than Belkis for my last read :) 
. If you can't tell from the title it is a modern retelling of Cinderella, set in Paris. It was very predictible (even if you are not aware of the story of Cinderella). However, I still found myself wanting to know what happens next. It was really fun and easy to read too, which I needed after
.
Finished
it's good just not as good as Jake and. Nina's story in the sense that almost EVERY time they try to get together something gets in their way, drove me nuts, but the book is still a good read.
Mod
and 
"Oh Annie you're flying through VA!! Wish I could join you. =) FCH was good, do you like it so far?
Mod
and I loved it. Totally fits in with the whole taboo theme this month (he's her coach). Nothing like some super hot soccer players. Now trying to decide..."Damn, thank you for singlehandedly pointing out how much I'm lagging behind!! LOL Didn't even know On Dublin and PTL had another book. *face palm*

Yeah, VA is superb!!! FCH...not so much. It was a 3 star read for me. Just meh. Have no interest in continuing. Too many books are coming out soon, so I don't want to waste more time. I was hoping to love it. :/
Mod
and it already had me wanting to cry several times. Omg it's mostly in Mitch's pov but gots back and forth a lot but omg it's sad."THANK YOU, Danielle!!! I've been dying for you guys to get to this series, Jake Undone and My Skylar were my favorites for the year so far. Absolutely beautiful stories, and MS just rips your heart out!
Mod
"Oh Veronica how did you like Gravity? I have this one in my TBR and plan to get to it eventually."
I gave this one a 4 but it really was a 3.5 for me. It's pretty good, I liked it but I'm not itching to get to the next book, ya know?

Do it, Donna, you won't regret it! ;-)
Mod
and "Oh Annie you're flying through VA!! Wish I could join you. =) FCH was good, do you ..."
Yeah, FCH didn't wow me but it was good enough to finish without being painful. Doubt I'll read on either, I'm SO far behind with my favorites these days that it's sad!!
If anyone is interested in joining a buddy read of
Sara and I will be starting it soon and we've setup the thread for it in our buddy reads folder so just come on over :)

Started
almost as good as the Chocolate Lovers series.
REALLY loved this book!! It was not what I was expecting in a good way and wozers it was a good shock that it wasnt! I highly recommend it Its one f my rare 5 stars !!
Enjoyed all so far Great Steampunk/Paranormal reads.
different/weird but enjoyed it.
really liked the story
fully enjoyed but I am a huge fan of Mead so I may be biased :)Finally I read
Not bad but I still dont really get the "Dystopian" feel And now Im finishing up Consequences Series
was meh but the last 20% or so had me wanting the next book already even before I finished :)
Was better but still dragged at times and was dull at times again picked up and kept rolling at the last 30% or so.Finally at
and the beginning has me WTH?!?!! (Audio Books each 20 - 24hr Ive listened to them back to back)
is up next !! Debating on doing a reread/listen to all the books.

[bookcover:Summer..."Wow Laura, you really got through a load of books! We've missed you and so glad to have you pop in. Will definitely be adding The Mad Scientist's Daughter to my TBR and need to get back to reading the London Steampunk series sin I truly enjoyed the first book. Also need to read Passions And Ponies, love that Chocoholics series. Really liked A Different Blue by Amy Harmon and basically plan on reading all of her books. We just finished a buddy read for Ruin And Rising and loved it. Perfect ending to a wonderful trilogy so hoping you enjoy it as much as we did. Still need to read the Consequences series but there are still books being released for it so I might just wait until all of them are out before starting them since I have a ton of books I want/need to read anyway :)

Totally know what you mean Erin. I'll probably read it eventually but not in any rush to get to it from what I've gathered from everyone's thoughts about it :)
Erin wrote: "Danielle wrote: "I started and it already had me wanting to cry several times. Omg it's mostly in Mitch's pov but gots back and forth a lot but omg it's sad."THANK ..."
Oh I plan on getting to it soon too Erin :) Jake Undone is still on my Next Up list so hoping to read it before the month is out.

Oh you're both making me want to move this one up into my Next Up shelf LOL! I swear my Next Up shelf is soon going to be out of control :D
I started
yesterday you all rave about it soooo I'm giving it a shot still a bit confused but I'll push through.I may join
but I've got to read book 1 so we will see if I get to it. Idk yet.@Laura woah that's a crap load of books! I hope you can get on more in the future you're reading a lot and I love hearing about it lol.
@Erin MS for me wasn't AS good as Jake Jake got 5 from me (4.5 really) and MS got 4 but it was still good I just we had more of them in an actual relationship so we could experience their happiness a bit longer lol.
Danielle wrote: "I started yesterday you all rave about it soooo I'm giving it a shot still a bit confused but I'll push through.I may join
but ..."Yeah Danielle, Dragon Bound is a little confusing at the beginning but it'll make sense soon. I really enjoyed it when I read it and need to get back to reading the next book in this series :)
Danielle wrote: "I started yesterday you all rave about it soooo I'm giving it a shot still a bit confused but I'll push through.I may join
but ..."Oh yay Danielle, yes! come join us with the buddy read for
we're reading book 2
but they're pretty light reads and not long so come on over. Maybe we'll continue on and finish off the trilogy and read book 3 afterwards
LOL! who knows :)

We'll see I tend to be one book at a time type reader unless I'm having difficulty getting into it.
Just finished
. Is it just me or is Katie McGarry hell bent on making my life miserable? I mean, seriously! heart wrenching and so good!
Mod
. Is it just me or is Katie McGarry hell bent on making my life miserable? I mean, seriously! heart wrenching and so good!"You think this one is heart wrenching, wait until you get to Take Me On. UGH! My heart was ripped out of my chest, stomped on and ground to a pulp (all in a good way, of course). McGarry is my hero!

Okay, so I got sucked into
and holy shit is it good. Didn't think I'd like this book at all. But it's pretty awesome so far.Listening to
, love the narrator. She has such a passionate and expressive voice. I am loving it this time around, as opposed to the last 3 times of trying to read it and only getting several chapters in and giving up. We'll see.And finishing

Sometime tonight or tomorrow I will be starting

Oh Annie I'm so glad you loved Shadow And Bone! Such a great trilogy. And yay! You're also enjoying Daughter Of Smoke And Bone. I love both these trilogies so much. And yes the narrator for DoSaB is very good I read the first 2 books because they weren't on audio when the first came out but I was able to get the third one on audio and the narration was great. Same case with The Grisha trilogy, read the first book but was able to get audios for the last 2 and the narrator was great.

So just finished
and it was both frustrating and entertaining in equal measures LOL! It intrigued me enough that I will be reading the last book so I can find out how it all wraps up. Next up going to be starting
and then a buddy read of

Hannah wrote: "Sometime tonight or tomorrow I will be starting and I just hope its as good as everyone says it is."Idk if it's good per se I think it's an effing train wreck and that's what makes it good.
Finished
I did surprisingly like it. It definitely was different but not different if that makes sense....but I dug it. Wasn't just all about sex and mating had some other components too.

Hannah wrote: "Sometime tonight or tomorrow I will be starting and I just hope its as good as everyone says it is."This is one where I found people either love it or hate it. I expected not to like it mostly because my sister read it and hated it but I actually thought it was really good.

The second one totally annoyed me b/c it's the story from the male's POV. Not so bad except there are barely any differences between that and the first one, so it wasn't like I was reading a new story as he saw it.

Total train wreck for sure!

I'm definitely in the "hate it" basket. Travis is the worst boyfriend ever.
