Nicole wrote: "Laura wrote: "Finished and I had a WTF? moment at the ending because I thought this was a trilogy! But I see now there are 2 -3 more books? Gah Had I known I would..."Nope - six, possibly seven
Ash wrote: "Tiana411 wrote: "I'm reading , why are there so many POV's! I loved the first 2 books but all these POV's are making me skim. WTF!!!! I've been looking forward ..."Ash, thanks for the explanation. I'm one of those people who gets attached to the main characters and want more of them. I generally avoid books with so many storylines and I know that it'll all get tied together at the end. I don't mind side characters but I don't necessarily need their POV.
I like new characters like Rowan but I don't care much for the witches or the healer so far. I will keep reading:)

Between these I guess.

I enjoyed this POV enough, but I had a bit of a harder time with it b/c it wasn't giving me what I needed in regards to being important to this story line. But I guess she had to introduce them somewhere

and I'm on the fence with it. Actually, it seems every book I have read lately I have been on the fence. Is this one yours Brooke?
Just finished
. I really enjoyed it. Good for fans of sci-fi erotica.

Nope, not one of mine. Never heard of this one.

For the challenge it's from Erin.
I'm currently reading
idk yet.

I didn't love it but enjoyed it enough and found it somewhat interesting especially knowing that all of it will be important to the overall story in the future books.

I'll probably try and read this one for our Mod RC too Tracy. I've been sort of debating whether to read it or not for a while so I figure our RC would be the right opportunity. This is one that has a lot of mixed feelings.

I've recently finished Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas which is an incredible book in my opinion. (Can't wait to purchase the next book). Went straight to reading Witch Finder by Ruth Warburton only on chapter 3, but so far so good

So I finished
and it was very cute, more Kowalski joy. Also finished
and loved it as much as the first book. Very excited that the author will be writing more books for this story! Now starting
yay!

I am straddling the fence Belkis. The story would be very dramatic and overemphasized situations made it unbelievable for me sometimes. I think I have to think on this one before reviewing.

The second is even better.

Its pretty good, I would recommend giving it a try but I can definitely see why there are mixed feelings. It reminds me a lot of Ashton and Beau from The Vincent Boys.
Belkis wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Ash, Kishan, Warner ♥ wrote: "Just finished

I think you would like this one, Belkis. Its short though, so keep that in mind. Almost short enough to qualify as a novella. I generally think of novellas as 150 pg or less. Breeder is 200.

I can see why you think t about Bully Rebecca. It kind of is. It's just for me it was really over he top at times with the back and forth.

I REALLY liked Bully. And

Mod
Love the Throne of Glass series so much! There's a lot of talk about it in this post, LOL!
Just finished
. It was okay. I'm not the biggest fan of the cliffhangerish ending, though. Now I have to read
just to see how the story ends.

Becky Wicks is going to be interviewed here in the group on 9/11!!!! You should stop by and see what she has to say!

That's okay Rebecca short ones are nice every once in a while. I've read lots of great stories that have been 200 pages or less. I'll be adding this one to my TBR for sure since I do enjoy both scifi & smexy reads ;)
I just bought
, so I am going to reread
and
first then read HoF. :)

Awesome. Maybe I can get to this before then. Wait.... That's this week! Ok I'm gonna try really hard!

So I finally finished
and I loved it. I gotta admit I was pretty impatient when I started because all I wanted was Celaena and Chaol but I really enjoyed the addition go Rowan and Aedeon.

Really? You're the first person to say that! I guess it's all a matter of preference though!
The reason for the extra POVs is that the story is getting bigger...it's not just in the castle anymore, it's all over Erilea and Wendlyn so and we need those extra POVs to keep us in the loop
Personally I really enjoyed getting to see some of the other places in the ToG world and meeting new characters, I can't wait to see how Maas brings all these different plots together
