Well, at least you tried it! Not everyone's going to love the same stuff. Sorry it wasn't a good one, though.

Wow, just read a few reviews for Me Before You, not sure I could take that one. Added it to my TBR last year, but it's going to have to be for a day I need a good cry. No HEA just breaks my heart before I've even opened the book! lol

Yup, another DNF. I just can't waste my time.

Oh that sucks....I did the same with VA and Bloodlines - only took me like two weeks, probably less to get through them all
Take comfort in the fact that by the time you're ready for it the final Bloodlines book will be out and you won't have the agonising wait the rest of us have had! THAT'S why you've waited so long lol


Oohh PLEASE hold out for the last one - it is epic! And I'm not sure what stage of Insurgent you're at but the ending is worth holding on for

It's definitely nothing as exciting as the first one that's for sure. I'm with you in that I don't know whether I am convinced enough to read the 3rd but I might wait till the final movie is coming out and read it before then but in no hurry now

Lol I hope you do just know each read gets better as the series goes on

I think the reason I loved it so much is that i really wasn't expecting to lol - I'm SO anti-Twilight and when I came across VA I was just like 'urgh...more Vampires?? Really?'....I honestly don't know what made me pick it up in the first place, but I'm very glad I did!

Uuuugghhh you guys are killing me with this!! I've read Forbidden which I loved but I was so upset because of the ending and I couldn't stop thinking about it for ages. Now my question to you book pimps, is there a HEA??? You can put a spoiler alert for those who don't want to know, but I NEED to know....don't be all coy like "oh, well it depends on your idea of HEA". Y'all know what I'm asking, so please tell me before I start;)

Yeah, I read the reviews and it sounds like it's similar to Forbidden in terms of the (view spoiler) Interested in knowing as well though, because I need to be prepared going in if it's going to gut me!

Oh wow, that's a tall order because that is such a unique series and you've probably read 90% of the books I'd recommend! lol Have you read

(view spoiler) . Do not read this if you do not want Me Before You spoiled for you. You can read my review and know what will happen, pretty much. However it will spoil the book.

Oh man, read what Tracy wrote in her review cause I didn't spoil anything in mine or go into the discussion thread under Buddy Reads and you will see what we are talking about. But it's a book that you either want to experience whether the ending was what you want it to be or not. The movie is coming out this year too and the casting of the two main characters is spot on.

Others loved it. Not me. I could not get past the girl pining after the boy immediately. So annoying.

What did you think? I had issues with parts of this book. Especially the part with Max, I think his name was, and a certain question he asks the main character about (view spoiler) . It seemed out of place.["br"]>["br"]>

I think you being disappointed in Adam is the point of this novella. It's to turn the readers, IMO.

Haha Ash, good point! It always is again having to wait for books to come out. And so true, I think I was avoiding it because of the post-twilight vampire thing. Although, I don't hate on twilight as much.. I probably would have if i'd read them in English, but my Aunt is a librarian and accidentally ordered them in Spanish for her school, so they served as my practice reads!


I want to..."
Yeah Tracy, it's a bit of a different writing style. It kind of threw me because the writing style makes it seem like it takes place... maybe in the past, but then they're talking about tablets and Obama and you're like oh, ok then. It's a quick read though. I think it's worth it

i gave it a 2 star. i did not like the characterization.insta love is grating on my nerves. and i did not like the really uncomfortable triangle between max, adrien and zoel.

my book club read this a few months back and I agree with Tracy.

Ahhhh thanks ladies. Tracy, great review. Sylvia I read your buddy read comments and I agree with Tracy. You are full of love!!!
Maybe I will still read it now that I know what's coming.

Yeah, which royally pissed me off. People can say what they will about Warner always being better for her, but she MADE so many of her readers adore Adam in Shatter Me, and it irritated me to no end that it suddenly shifted to him being a jerk. He was a jerk because she was cold to him after all he'd done, how is that his fault?? Ugh, don't get me wrong, I loved Warner in the end and he's the epitome of the sexy bad boy, but she seriously did wrong by Adam with this series and it hurt! lol
