Oh see Donna now I have to add Where I Belong to my tbr :P and I hope you enjoy Froi of the Exiles. The Lumatere Chronicles is one of my favorite trilogies read this year. The audios are excellent.

Tracy they are very cute. Give them a try. I know you'll like them. If you like McGarry and West you'll like these. Actually, Lola reminds me A LOT of West's The Distance Between Us. Not the story line but how it's written.

Oooh, ok. :P Yeah, I changed it from Ash, Kishan, Warner, to Mat Cauthon, one of the main characters from the Wheel of Time series. He makes me tingly.

On the WoT series I think I'm at book 7 (see I can't even remember) and book 3 on GoT. There's just too many other books to read! But it might be my goal - to finish them. They are really awesome... Btw, my teenaged mind (gosh that was a LONG time ago LOL) was always a fan of Perrin. :)

Haha, I like tingly too. And not even because of anything romantic. He doesn't even have a pairing as of yet. He's just awesome.

I love Perrin too. I think I preferred him in the first two books, but Mat's just becoming so bad ass! He was too immature in the beginning. But Perrin has always been calm and thoughtful.

Finished Lola and the Boy Next Door (Anna and the French Kiss, #2) by Stephanie Perkins and it was fantastic. Just the kind of read I needed while still trying to get through The Vault of Dreamers by Caragh M. O'Brien . I am moving on to Isla and the Happily Ever After (Anna and the French Kiss, #3) by Stephanie Perkins and if I finish that fast, I will read This is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith which I wanted to read while on vacation but got too caught up in Throne of Glass series to worry about!

I loved HFA and I also liked DT a lot too. Can't wait until book 3 comes out.

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments So I decided to go with Perfection (Neighbor from Hell, #2) by R.L. Mathewson for a change of pace. Felt like something contemporary, funny, and hot! So this one I think will fit that bill quite nicely. Loved the first book in this series and have heard loads of great things about this one so very excited!

This one is reminding me a bit of Kasie West's The Distance Between Us, which I LOVED. "

Those have been on my tbr for a while but moving up my list if it reminds you of The Distance Between Us by Kasie West . I find myself often thinking back to this book and smiling at the 'drink thing' he did :)


message 8988: by Victoria (new)

Victoria | 259 comments it has been a while, I have been so busy my reading has slacked off but back at it now that my children are back in school and I have more me time- just finished A Long, Long Time Ago and Essentially True by Brigid Pasulka which is an adult book, but I really liked it and now I am reading Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell and it is the sweetest story, I am loving it so far :)

I loved the MC in Born Wicked (The Cahill Witch Chronicles, #1) by Jessica Spotswood . It's a YA book so I thought her character was a good female role model especially for the younger age groups.

Lol, I LOVED Anna, liked Lola and found Isla forgettable. Can't wait for your opinions on it! When I read Anna I wanted to jump on a plane to France and enroll my adult self into that school! Heehee.


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments I finished Forget You by Jennifer Echols and was NOT impressed. Idk the mc didn't make sense, being logical didn't work for her or something. No idea, but I mean the story was ok, but I was confused for a majority of the book and I think the book should have a clear explanation on why the character is thinking a certain way.


message 8992: by Tiana411 (new)

Tiana411 | 701 comments Finished Before He Was Famous (Starstruck, #1) by Becky Wicks . It was ok, pretty predictable story. Based on reviews I'm the minority but that's ok:)
Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for it.

Will certainly update. I'm about 30% in now and I'm liking it well enough. It's not grabbing me like Lola.

I didn't think this was her best book. I loved Hopeless, especially Losing Hope b/c I love a guy's POV. But I loved Maybe Someday the most.

message 9000: by Nitzan (new)

Nitzan Schwarz (nitzanafterwords) I just finished Flame Moon (Flame Moon, #1) by K.J. Jackson which turned out to be a hidden gem. It was really good, and I actually got it as a free kindle book and only read it because that's what I drew from my TBR jar (which contains ALL my physical books plus kindle books...) All hail TBR jars!
So now I'm thinking of starting Seduction in Death (In Death, #13) by J.D. Robb . I've been missing Eve and Roarke's companies, and I just got this one in the mail!
