Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher? I have talked about it for sure.

Do you think so? I have a feeling things will change more than we would like, actually. I have a feeling they will turn things a bit to appease people, which will piss me off and make me not want to see it (even though I probably still will).

OMG Brooke. You are kidding me right now, right? You have to read Easy. There is just no excuse for that.

Yep, I remember now. Sometimes I have to boost my brain to get it going.

Do you think Roth will let them change the ending? She took a lot of flack over that ending from readers. If I were her I wouldn't let them change it because of that. The end is the end and it would stay that way.

Even though I haven't finished the series yet, I agree wholeheartedly that the ending should remain the same no matter what!! Defeats the whole purpose of writing the story. True fans would appreciate that more than succumbing to the wants and needs of the masses.

Oh I wouldn't let them change it, if I were her. But I think they might play it down. I guess we'll see how it plays out. i'm sure the last movie will be TWO movies b/c the movie makers are greedy like that for sure. I can only hope that it doesn't get changed and stays true to the story. I was one of the ones who thought the ending and how she played it out was really rather good and went how it should have gone. I will say that I got annoyed with the alternating POVs though.

LOL! You're funny. And it's funny how we get dragged into books and even if there are things that make us throw it across the room, we continue on.
Oh, Sylvia, I wanted to ask you, so you have plans to read Snakeroot because...well...REN? or are you just done?

What?! You haven't read Easy?! So good! I prefer it to Walking Disaster. The characters are less crazy. And Lucas is just, well, Lucas :)

Well, I really disliked BD and WD. I read BD and thought the writing was awful and the story not believable. And, yes, the characters are crazy. I didn't feel the connections in the romance, to be honest. It was more possessive and stalkerish. I thought maybe reading WD would show me more about Travis, but nope, he was just as crazy. And the story didn't show me anything different from the first. Then I tried BW and forget it, got about two chapters in and tossed it to the side never to go back. So if you tell me this story is similar or the writing is, then I just can't read it. I don't have time to waste. I also can't read Molly McAdams, though I adore her personally, or Abbi Glines.

I have both on my tbr list... since forever. I think Wife by Wednesday should be a good light read...?

The only similarly between the two is contemp romance.

Ya the end of Insurgent kind of felt like an ending with the truth coming out.


I don't think it is anything like the disaster books. I didn't like either one of them, but I really like Easy.. you should definitely read it. Lucas is very loveable.. it is good! :)


I read Allegiant because I needed closure, but I can say that at this point, you aren't missing much, it was my least favorite of the whole series. I actually liked Insurgent ( although not as much as Divergent) but Allegiant was just not good- and that isn't even because of the ending, I just didn't like the whole thing very much. I say quit while you are still ahead..haha!

I heard it was all politics. I don't get so excited about the politics. I will watch the movie though. Just don't want to take the time to read it.

Well then I shall certainly get to it soon!

Well then I shall certainly get to it soon!

it was a lot of politics, which I didn't like either, and I didn't like that she began writing alternate POVs, it changed the way I saw Four and that was a disappointment to me. I just stayed frustrated with the decisions and the outcomes throughout the whole thing. I will probably go to the movies too, but I could have skipped the book and been just as happy
( probably happier :) )


No, the writing is 1000 times better (in my opinion). I know a lot of people really loved Travis which is why I mentioned it. I wasn't really a fan. It seemed like such a toxic relationship to me. Easy is not like that at all. There is drama, of course. But the characters are well written and the relationship builds slowly.

Yes, very toxic. And the writing was not really good, IMO. Glad to hear this is better. I like a bit of drama! It makes for a good build up!

It's so hard to resist the urge to pick up Dead of Winter! But I'm hanging on to my resolution, next up adult title! Then the coveted Dead of Winter.

I'm almost finished with
and it's so good right now. I was OK with the first two but this one I'm loving.




Love this series. How are you enjoying it?"
12 chapters in and I am still wary of the author. I am reading because everyone said the series gets better. But all I have seen so far is the trademark story less and over the top sexual tension. So I am not enjoying.
