I still need to start this one Annie. I have the first 2 books sitting in my kindle and am planning to start once all of the books are out so that'll be soon I guess. Hope I fall in love with them as much as you do :)

Well then...glad you are off your slump or whatever it was. HOWEVER...you really need to read Existence (Existence Trilogy, #1) by Abbi Glines . Seriously, look at those eyes. This is where I first fell in love with Pepe.

It is a fast read. I loved Beau Vincent. It's no literary masterpiece, but it's one of my favs. Beau was one of my first book boyfriends.

I started listening to The Darkest Minds (The Darkest Minds, #1) by Alexandra Bracken because I have had it on my TBR forever and I got it on audio really cheap and you guys keep talking about this series so I decided to start it.

Tracy, so far it's NOTHING like Hunger Games. Really, it's not like anything I've read before. Usually that would be good...not so sure here. I'm hoping to finish it tonight. Maybe my opinion will change

I'm excited to see what you think of Covet! If she writes everything as great as On the Island, I need to read more.

I get to meet him and hopefully get a pic of him & those eyes on the 17th! Do you think it'd be weird if I asked him to look over my shoulder just like that book cover while my friend takes our picture?

So far I'm not particularly impressed. I like it enough. The writing it pretty good. But it glossed over a major event that I think should have had a bit more time. Like it was nothing.

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Okay so I finished Covet (Covet, #1) by Tracey Garvis-Graves and it was good but not great like On The Island but I knew this going into it. Didn't read any spoilers or anything like that but had an overall sense of what to expect. Still I did enjoy the writing and plan on reading the followup story which just released Cherish (Covet, #1.5) by Tracey Garvis-Graves . I'm in the middle of Desert Bound (Cambio Springs Book #2) by Elizabeth Hunter which I'm loving and also in the middle of If I Should Die (Revenants, #3) by Amy Plum which I'm also loving.

I felt the same way with that situation too Brooke. I couldn't believe that they just stepped over it so quickly. I'm expecting to have it rehashed in book 2. How can it not be?!
