Grave Mercy was one of my first audio books. The narrator does a great job.

I've only read the first of this series. Don't know why I haven't continued. It was really good.

It's YA. I'm 60 pages in and like it so far.

If you like (or even if you don't) the narrator is the bomb!

Yeah, I was led to believe it would be more PNR, but its not really. I still read the second book but they are only 3 stars for me.

I agree with Tracy the narrator I'm loving her right now.


message 10963: by Tiana411 (new)

Tiana411 | 701 comments I'm currently reading Fallen Crest High (Fallen Crest High, #1) by Tijan and I'm wondering what the obsession is with this series. This story is crazy! These are high school kids? Do they do anything besides drink, cheat and fight? The writing itself is pretty amateur. I think the author needs a thesaurus. There's a lot of glaring......is this written by a teenager?


message 10964: by Nicole D. (new)

Nicole D. (thereadingrebel) | 969 comments finishing up The Blood of an Englishman (Agatha Raisin, #25) by M.C. Beaton and liked it. 3 stars. Then going to start Apollyon (Covenant, #4) by Jennifer L. Armentrout so excited for this one.

Oh Tiana - it is truly f-ed up & that's why it's so great! I really like the FC series & a lot if Tijans books because it's crazy, dark & hella edgy. But I definitely remember reading FC thinking WTH is up with these teens & all this drama! Hahaha. If you can't stand it then definitely DO NOT read the Jaded series!! (which I'm so in love with btw) :)

Yeah, I think I remember actually liking the story overall, but the writing just wasn't up to par.
