I mean seriously, I will have..."Yup, that right there is our main non-problem Victoria :P SO many good books to try and resist LOL!
Finished
I liked it but it was sooooooo forsaking short. Only 15 chapters and it ended in a place I wouldn't call an ending in the plot. The plot did not conclude. But overall I loved it.
Mod
. Now I need to finish 
and 
. Started [..."LOL! It's good so far. I'm almost 1/2 way done.
Mod
I should go clean...some day

I don't like my tbrs too high and I don't add all the series books at once because I may or may not continue the series lol.
Tracy wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Teresa wrote: "Ekaterine wrote: "Teresa wrote: "So I finally finished 
which started out interesting but I'm sorry to say I got a little bored..."I've never read that series. The reviews seemed pretty mixed to me and the synopsis didn't sound like something I'd like.
Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read. I mean seriously, I will have to live a thousand years to ..."Wow, 2000 books, that's a huge pile. I've got a big list but nothing close to that many. My problem is I buy a book and by the time I get around to it I'm like do I really want to read that right now? I never can figure out what I'm in the mood to read. I think I'm looking for something really sweet like
or anything that can compare to the Throne of Glass series.
Mod
I have a lot on my tbr shelf too. Over 1000 since I started on goodreads in February
Mod
I do, too. I shall go take a bit of a look now.
Brooke wrote: "Danielle (Danniegurl) wrote: "Brooke wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Danielle (Danniegurl) wrote: "Victoria wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over ..."I just did it too I found I had some PNR still listed as Adult Romance. I've figured out I need more sub shelves so I can find things that are in the moods I'm looking for. So if I put it in Adult Romance I doubt I'll look there since right now I'm in UF/PNR world lol.
I didn't delete any. Though I wish the shelves would sort by read or tbr I hate that I see all the stuff I've read in those same shelves too.
Mod
finished
and it was great. Not my favorite of hers but still a great book none the less and now to finish up the Lux series with the prequel novel
. It will be nice to see Dawson and Beth's back story. Oh well guess not finished I still need to read the adult Lux novel.
Mod

I swe..."I hate that the tbr & read are lumped together too Danielle. And I'm not deleting books either, just removing from my tbr shelves to try and narrow down the books that I'd really like to get to at some point. Although it seems that they are way way way too many of course :P
Teresa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read. I mean seriously, I will have to live a thou..."That's our problem in a nutshell Teresa. I do the same thing almost on a weekly basis. My tbr is way over 5000 books. I kid you not LOL! And I keep finding ones that I want to read every other day so my shelves just keep growing. I have hundreds and hundreds of ebooks and audiobooks waiting in my kindle to be read/listened to. And I know what you mean about On The Island and Throne Of Glass those books are simply in a league of their own and that's why I have a LOVE and REREAD shelf because there are a few very special ones that I have to reread every year. I think I have like 20-25 very special ones so far :) I also have a FAVORITES shelf for all of the other special wonderful ones that I might consider rereading and don't want to ever forget how great they were the first time around.
So far these very special to me are in my LOVE shelf but of course my list continuously grows as I find and read new addicting ones:
Finnikin Of The Rock - The Lumatere Trilogy really
The Throne Of Glass books
On The Island
Beautiful Disaster
The Slammed Trilogy
The Hopeless books
Maybe Someday
The Edge Of Never
The Sweet Gum Tree
Ten Tiny Breaths
Daughter Of Smoke And Bone
The Genius And The Muse
The Scribe & The Singer
Making Faces
Infinity + One
The Sea Of Tranquility
The Fault In Our Stars
Real
Sweet Thing
A Hunger Like No Other
Take This Regret

Hey Nicole since you enjoy HR books, have you read any of these?
, loved them. Have read and loved most of Julie Garwood's books, she's one of my favorite HR writers. And of course Lisa Kleypas is fantastic. Loved her Hathaways series and plan on reading her Travises series in 2015. And absolutely LOVED Lord Of Scoundrels by Loretta Chase so will be reading more of her's in the future as well. But I've also read and loved Elizabeth Lowell & Johanna Lindsey. Planning to read
this one in 2015 too and I've heard that it's supposed to be really really good.

is great. But I prefer Elizabeth Hoyt's Maiden Lane series more as a whole. In the Prince series I only really love The Raven Prince.
Belkis wrote: "Teresa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read.

Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Warner ♥ wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Hey Nicole since you enjoy HR books, have you read any of these? , loved them. ..."Oh thank you Rebecca :) yeah, from the reviews and comments I've read you're right so my plan was to just read the one for this series.
Mod
. But do not be misguided by the cover. I thought for sure it would be fantasty. But it is paranormal/mystery and it's really good! I'm 84% right now and I just want to read as opposed to do anything at work! LOL!
Brooke wrote: "Guys, you have to read . But do not be misguided by the cover. I thought for sure it would be fantasty. But it is paranormal/mystery and it's really good! I'm 84% right ..."Yes Brooke, for sure. I've heard so many great things about this one and have been compiling the books to then start reading them back to back. Annie also raved about it a while back and said that book 2 was just as good as the first one. And the third book is releasing next month so that'll be perfect. All 3 books are in my 300 in 2015 shelf.
Belkis wrote: "Teresa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read.

Brooke wrote: "Guys, you have to read . But do not be misguided by the cover. I thought for sure it would be fantasty. But it is paranormal/mystery and it's really good! I'm 84% right ..."Ooo. I read this & book 2 last year. It IS good! Can't wait for the next one to be released!
Almost done with
. Holy mother. Barrons is freaking so hot he's nuclear. I think I'll wait to read the next one & read something Christmas-y.
Brooke wrote: "Guys, you have to read . But do not be misguided by the cover. I thought for sure it would be fantasty. But it is paranormal/mystery and it's really good! I'm 84% right ..."That's always a good sign. Will have to add that to my list.
Belkis wrote: "Teresa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read. I mean seriously, I will have..."I've read about half of these and totally agree with your faves. I'll definitely have to add a few of the ones I haven't read to my pile
Donna wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Teresa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read. I mean serious..."Well Donna, you know.... our group has awesome reading tastes :)

Donna wrote: "Almost done with . Holy mother. Barrons is freaking so hot he's nuclear. I think I'll wait to read the next one & read something Christmas-y."Right??!! LOVE Barrons! Will definitely need to do a reread of The Fever series at some point too Donna.
Teresa wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Teresa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "We need to do a TBR challenge next year. I swear I have over 2,000 books on that stinking shelf. I'm never going to get all of those read.

Haven't been able to get any reading done this today or yesterday. Have loads of work and tons of holiday stuff afterwards. Hopefully I can get a little reading/listening done in the next few days.
Mod

The publisher sent me an ARC of #3 so I want to get to it before publication date! I have a feeling it will be done sooner rather than later b/c I tore through this one fairly quickly!
Mod

Mod

I know Belkis. All this working gets in my way to.

Belkis wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Warner ♥ wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Hey Nicole since you enjoy HR books, have you read any of these? [bookcov..."Cool. Its a good one. You should check out the Maiden Lane series if you are a fan of those series that eventually give an HEA for every character. If there is someone you love, just wait and they will get their own book eventually. And the characters feel like one big family. :P I love those series.
Belkis wrote: "Hey Nicole since you enjoy HR books, have you read any of these? , loved them. Have read and l..."Thanks I heard great things about Lord of Scoundrels. I have read a book by Lisa Kleypas but it was a modern day romance. Good writing. Liked the book. I will have to look into them. But I am very very picky about historical romances.
Mod

Mod
I am so ready for that! I want that perfect year around weather we are going to have and those HOT pool boys that will be hanging around. Yeah Belkis, I'm ready.
Mod

Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Warner ♥ wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Warner ♥ wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Hey Nicole since you enjoy HR books, have you read any of these? [bookcover:The Bride|..."Oh Rebecca, yup Maiden Lane sounds like it's right up my alley :) love HR's with HEA endings.
I was able to listen to my audio book of
for a little bit earlier today and was so happy to get back to this wonderful story. I love the writing; it's so beautiful. Has an ethereal ambiance to it. It sweeps you away to another place almost.
