I hear you Tracy, some genres are hit or miss for all of of us. I don't care for mysteries, or thrillers, or horror. And UF stories have to be just right for me to enjoy them. I think it's because I'm a total romance buff hahahaha! I need everything to have a love angle in it LOL! That's why PNR is way more enjoyable than UF for me. And I do love my contemporary romances. Of course I'm one of those annoying readers who need to have HEA's because otherwise I'm not a happy camper :P


So good Tracy. I hope you can remember the plot from PP. It'll probably all come back to you after a few chapters.

And yet we usually love the same books! I love mystery, action, UF and horror. Romance is the genre that I have to be in the mood for but when you guys go on about a book I know I have to read it.

Ummm... didn't you see this?
The Fault in Our Stars meets Eleanor and Park in this exhilarating and heart-wrenching love story about a girl who learns to live from a boy who intends to die.

Same here! I was actually failing AR reading and Harry saved my bacon. Plus it was the first thing I ever won!
Everytime I had to wait, it was both sweet and horrible!

Yeah yeah yeah. I didn't cry when I read TFiOS. I knew from the beginning what was going to happen. With this one, I knew...but I'm a masochist, so there's that.

I may try it again one day.

Oh yeah, I have that problem too.

That is me in a nutshell too. A book is usually not quite right for me unless there is some sort of romance in it. it doesn't have to be over the top, but just there somehow. Of course there are some exceptions. Like The Book Thief for example, no romance in that but it was a favorite of mine anyway.


This sounds good but I don't know if I'm up for a tearjerker. I've just started



I'm torn by this, it sounds pretty good, but I find it really difficult reading about suicide/self harm

I really enjoyed the Hemlock series. The first book was my favorite, tho.

I finished it last night. It was very good. I didn't cry, I did tear up. But I didn't cry with TFiOS, either. I don't want to spoil things with what happens, though.

So, done with

, which I am still uncertain about (b/c I cannot seem to remember much of the first book which I just read in April!). And I'm sneaking in
here and there along with






Oh is this one a heart-stomper too Brooke :'(

Awww, please please don't let it be a FiOS kind of a gut-wrencher! I do want to read this one but if it's the ugly cry kind of read then it will have to be put into rotation behind Me Before You and Bright Star because they're slotted to be next up for the ugly cry spots in my reading agenda this year. There's only so much emotional devastation I can deal with every month.

Yeah Danielle, sadly I haven't started the Marked Men series yet. But I definitely plan on reading them soon :)


Oh Ash, that sucks. Dead Of Winter was fantastic! You can probably listen on your computer too. I don't know which audio website you use but you should be able to listen to it using an app or a media player from a computer, the audio website, etc. With Audible.com I can listen to my audios right from the website on my work computer, my personal laptap, my iPad, my phone, my Kindle (yeah a bit obsessed LOL!). Anyway, hope you can listen to it soon, the book was fantastic and the narration was another great one.



How did you like Seven Years to Sin Tasha? I still need to read it. Have had it on my tbr for ages and plan on reading it this year hopefully. Noughts & Crosses looks interesting.... LOL! yeah I need to add another book to my tbr like I need an anvil smashing my foot, but I just keep adding.....

Yup Teresa, gotta have my romance :) like all things sugary and sparkly LOL!

It was pretty good, it got 4 stars from me, obviously had sex in it, but it was quite tasteful and instead of the story revolving around it like certain erotica, it just enhanced the story. Noughts and Crosses is proving pretty good, I had it on my tbr for absolutely ages, then found it for £1 the other day, so thought why not

A bit of one. But I really loved the book. It was so well written.

I did not ugly cry, but I didn't ugly cry for TFiOS. If you did, you might with this. Depends on your mood, I guess.

Cool, thanks Tasha, will be reading Seven Years To Sin and I'll definitely take a closer look at Noughts & Crosses, it looks very interesting.

Ugh, sigh.... I guess I'll add this one to my "ugly cry" list then LOL!


Love Raven Boys Veronica :) such a great story. Hope you enjoy it."

so far the writing is very pretty. it is so pretty that all i can think of is flowers in different pastel shades. sounds weird even to me.

Hahahaha! Give a little while the story take a bit to build up but once it does, the plot, the story-telling, the wonderful characters, is entrancing. So very intricate. I hope it ends up being a good read for you.

Same here!! I only read the first VA book and didn't like it, really not interested in reading the rest. Covenant series had me hooked at every page, the characters were just much more likable. I didn't feel the 'obvious' similarities despite VA fans pointing them out, and regardless I think JLA made a more intriguing storyline with it and her characters were just unforgettable vs. a kind of drab VA cast.

LOVED Lick! Such a good story, and I'm liking the new cover a little better, too. The long greasy hair look on the old cover wasn't working for me. :-) You're making me want to get back to the series, I didn't read past this one yet.

I'm so anxious to get back to this series, but I'm afraid of the love triangle...I've been burned before and now I am hesitant to jump into anything I know could go the complete opposite direction of where I want it to! lol I need to read some reviews before I pick up the sequel, though, it's been awhile and these are complicated storylines.

Oh, no I thought it released in February!! Ahhhh!
Want so bad now. I haven't read book 2 yet, just so I can binge 2 and 3 together! The control I've had to exercise has been crazy! Especially when the date got pushed back.


I'm so anxious to get back ..."
I felt the same way re: the love triangle. But, omg Erin, you HAVE to read it! I'm about 40% through & if I didn't have to work I would have stayed up all night to read! Sooooo gooood!
