Andrea: BookStoreFinds (bookstorefinds) | 91 comments Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2) by Tahereh Mafi was amazing! It might have been better then Shatter me.

I'm on to book three now Ignite Me (Shatter Me, #3) by Tahereh Mafi and I'm loving it! But....... Its a little frustrating. If you read it you may know what I'm talking about,Something supposedly happened to a lot of people.... well I don't believe it! And while i think Warner is sexy as hell in the sexy scenes I still dont like him. And I have a mild crush on kenji, lol

I haven't but I do plan on it after I finish book 3. I was going to read them in between but I find novellas usually reveal something that I would already know because they often come out after the series has finished, so I didn't want to ruin it. But I have seen the covers and there's a tag line of each of them that makes me thing there's more to book 3 then what i know right now! lol

Well, I would really recommend you read them first. If you are not as in love with Warner as much as you should be, the novellas would probably help with that. If you dont read them, I just really hope that you can still enjoy book 3.

Oh Andrea, the novellas in this trilogy are integral to the story. I agree that with many series and trilogies most novellas don't enrich the story much but in this particular case the novellas are pivotal to this story. I agree with Brooke & Rebecca in their recommendation that you read the novellas as soon as possible. Book 3 would be way more enjoyable having read the novellas :)

This is one you HAVE to read the novellas with. They add to the story and a few things happen in them you won't get otherwise.

UH! Now I'm torn! Should I read them first and go back to book 3? I only started it today so if i'm going to stop reading it and read the novella's I should do it now! lol

Yes Andrea, definitely yes :) you'll be way happier with book 3 once you've read the novellas. We all seem to be in agreement on our advise to you on this :D

That sucks Brooke but it happens. I really loved this book though and the next one Lola And The Boy Next Door was very good too. At least for me.

Champion has been sitting on my book shelf for a while. I loved the 1st two books in the Legend series, but I'm scared to read this one because I have a feeling that it is not going to have a happy ending, and I'm going to be crying a lot. I think I need to mentally prepare myself to read it just in case.

BTW that's not a spoiler I obviously have no idea how the series ends because I haven't read the book and nobody has told me anything about the ending. It's just a feeling I have.

Actually, the novellas give insight into two of the main characters, rather than revealing much else.

Tasha | 207 comments Finished Ill Wind (Weather Warden, #1) by Rachel Caine , it was ok, but nothing compared to the Morganville Vampires. It got 3 stars from me.
Now (finally) onto Fractured (Slated, #2) by Teri Terry , but don't know how long until I'm dragged away from it

It's a really good wrap up to the trilogy Nicole. I loved this story and it's characters. You can go ahead and read it though. I know you're wary to read the endings because of other dystopian trilogies that have had upsetting endings but I was okay with this one if that helps :)

LOVE Harry Potter! How are you liking Landline Sophie? I fell in love with Rainbow Rowell's writing when I read Eleanor & Park. Still need to read Fangirl as well as Attachments which are sitting in my kindle. But wasn't sure if I wanted to read Landline or not.

Donna | 1350 comments Just about through with Breathe (Sea Breeze, #1) by Abbi Glines . Not too impressed although it seems like everyone really likes Because of Low (Sea Breeze, #2) by Abbi Glines , which I'll get to soon. I still love her writing, so I'll continue with the series. Up next: Dreams of a Dark Warrior (Immortals After Dark, #11) by Kresley Cole .

Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments I started and finished Razer's Ride (The Last Riders, #1) by Jamie Begley so this is an MC book but it's an MC that has freedom of sex....so basically everyone has sex with everyone and the women can become club members by having sex with the original 8 but they I think only need 6 "votes". It was interesting to read, but I didn't like how the main female, Beth, was treated it just felt weird. It's rated fairly high but idk it seemed choppy at times, and some of the editing was missing and *shrugs* I gave it 3 stars.

Doesn't everyone, such a classic! :P I highly recommend reading Fangirl and Attachments, in my opinion both of those were better than Landline. That doesn't mean I didn't enjoy landline- it just wasn't as good as her other books.

OH OH OH Donna, YAY!! You're going to read Regin's story next!!! So hilarious and heartbreaking and amazing. LOVE IAD!! And yeah the Sea Breeze series didn't really impress me much either. Didn't love Breath but I loved Because Of Low. Didn't love the next couple of books so I sort of gave up on the series. Hope you end up enjoying BoL. I know you'll LOVE DoaDW though :D

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments So I finished The One (The Selection, #3) by Kiera Cass and I enjoyed it. Nice wrap up to this light romantic YA trilogy. Now listening to Night Pleasures (Dark-Hunter, #1) by Sherrilyn Kenyon and so far I'm enjoying it.

@ Tracy, see I started the Dark Hunter series and I'm loving the YUMMY HOT Vamp LOL!

Danielle - What do you mean Something Else? lol I'm on Chapter 21 and I'm unsure about him now. He's definately different, he seems broken and unsure.

Belkis - At first I really hated Warner but I'm starting to like him more then Adam now. I love Kenji, hes always so punky and he tells it how it is.

I read the novellas last night and Im starting to think Warner loves Juliette more then Adam does and that hes giving up on her, , its like the passion between A&J is gone... It kinda break smy heart, I really wanted them to end up together...
