back to back in a matter of like, 4 days I was so hooked and on such a power read. WHY..."I did that same thing last year Ash! I picked up the first, then had the whole series read in a weeknor two. Great series for sure!

since you recommended it a while back, but the ebook is so expensive. It's over $7 on amazon. I keep waiting on the price to drop.

Mod
Thanks Tiana. It really is a beautiful story.
Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Read and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading f..."I feel like that was the point too. It bothered me a bit. It was almost like halfway through she changed her mind about everything.
Erin wrote: "Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Read and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading [bookcover:Ignite..."Yes!! I agree!!
Mod

Yeah, I felt the same way.
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading [bookcover:Ignite..."I agree. The interesting thing is, you only see Adam from Juliette's POV. So we never know what he's thinking or anything, ya know. So to see him from his own POV turned him into a different light. I really loved Adam in the first book. Then I grew to love Warner in the novella. I feel like she could have balanced it better (no matter what decision Juliette came to).
Ah, this is what I needed! Looking for the next book and I'm finding it tough to sink into anything… I forgot about
Reading
now for some crazy challenge.
was real good but it'll be a long wait for the concluding book.
Brooke wrote: "Erin wrote: "Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Read and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading [boo..."Love is blind sometimes. Especially young love. So that means Adam wasnt necessarily as awesome as Juliette thought he was. And as Brooke said, we only ever saw him through Juliette's POV until that novella. So it isnt necessarily Adam that changed, but Juliette.
Sylvia wrote: "Read and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading for our weekly ch..."YES! I'm thinking of re-reading the series soon. It's been on my mind lately. Warner... yum!!
Erin wrote: "GAH!! I'm only 2% into 
and I'm already crying ugly tears!! This one's going to hurt, I think I'm breaking this up with [bookcover:Dark Needs ..."There's never a bad time for IAD, Erin! Good call
Bridget wrote: "Ash wrote: "Bridget wrote: "I'm still trudging along with the audio of

Finished
and LOVED it. Very emotional and there were moments of brilliance in the book. Park was beyond sweet but they totally cracked me up. Was I like that? Probably. So f-ing hilarious!! Also finished
, which was ok. It was cute, not much depth, but an easy light read. Not sure what I'm gonna start now. Kinda in the middle of
- it's good but i'm more into romance right now....
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to final..."Yes, good point. Adam was the first guy she (view spoiler) so that was HUGE for her. When she realized she could also (view spoiler) she probably began to realize that Adam wasn't the be all end all. Still, I was sad when I read that novella. It really killed Adam for me.
Mod

Mod
Awe, you're so sweet Tiana411 <3 thank you and yes, please do read it. It's a book that can't be explained as to why there is so many conflicting emotions going on after you are done reading it. Well worth it though!
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading [bookcover:Ignite..."It is kind of sad that she did that to Adam's character. I guess that's why I was so thrown back by how much he had changed since Shatter Me.
Mod
. As much as I loved the first one, this one just is boring to me. I'm going to make myself fini..."No, I read it and I felt the same Bridget. Didn't really pick up till just after halfway…it's the way the story was flowing or lack of it!!
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading f..."I've missed this story and I'm so nervous and excited to read it EEEEPPPPP
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading [boo..."Unless it was her plan this whole time but I seriously doubt it because you see through her writing how much she loved Adam in Shatter Me…I'm talking about Tahereh
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to final..."I do think it is Juliette that's changed .. you could definitely sense that from Unravel Me
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to finally reading f..."Woot…go for it!!
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than ever. On to final..."Could be she had a change of heart. Or figured doing what she did would bring more readers? Who knows.
Bridget wrote: "Ash wrote: "Bridget wrote: "I'm still trudging along with the audio of . As much as I loved the first one, this one just is boring to me. I'm going to make myself fini..."Yeah I definitely agree that the sequels aren't as good as Divergent itself, but I think if you hang on til the end you'll be quite satisfied with the way the series pans out...
I listened to all three on audio and quite liked Emma Galvin - she is actually one of my favourite narrators...and I found the guy who does Four's narration in the final book was pretty good too...HOWEVER, everyone has different tastes and if you're not enjoying the narration then I definitely suggest reading the book instead - an irritating narrator can really ruin a book
Mod
and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than e..."Very smart on her behalf
Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Brooke wrote: "Erin wrote: "Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Read and was really disappointed by Adam blah which makes me love Warner even more than e..."She said it was the plan from the beginning. I believe her. It seemed to be heading in that direction all along to me.
Ash wrote: "Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Kelly wrote: "OH and also just read 1-5 of back to back in a matter of like, 4 days I was so hooked and on such a power read. WHY..."I did not love va immediately. It took a few months. One fine day I found out that I love it to pieces.
Kelly wrote: "OH and also just read 1-5 of back to back in a matter of like, 4 days I was so hooked and on such a power read. WHY didn't I read these earlier?! went to check ..."I read the first 4 back to back and book 6 was set to release in a month. So I waited for it and read book 5 and 6 together. But the wait was excruciating because of the bloody cliffhanger at end of book 4.
Brooke wrote: "Sylvia wrote: "Kelly wrote: "OH and also just read 1-5 of back to back in a matter of like, 4 days I was so hooked and on such a power read. WHY didn't I read ..."Brooke, you have to read va. I guarantee that it will be your next favourite.

too Donna
Bridget wrote: "Erin wrote: "Danielle (Danniegurl) wrote: "Erin, I wrote on your Falling Away review I think or Bully, I need more suggestions like that series, those books are amazing and the way the author makes..."I'm in the middle of reading the Clipped Wings series too Bridget and it's pretty good so far. I still need to read book 2 and the last novella. I think you'll like them.

I need to dig this one out from underneath my huge tbe pile too. Thanks for reminding me or it Rachel been wanting to read it for a while. Moving it up my tbr right now :)

"WooHoo KA is always a great choice! I plan on reading this one this month too Donna. Really enjoyed The Gamble last month.
Okay so I finished
late Tuesday night and loved it. It was very emotional. I cried through a lot of it, but so so very good. Thanks again Sara for shedding light on this wonderful read. Highly recommend.
Also almost done with
and enjoying it a lot too. Haven't had a whole lot of reading time this week but have enjoyed what I've managed to get through.

I started this book and for some reason I couldn't get into it, even though I was halfway through it I had to stop. Might tackle it again one day

Bridget wrote: "Ash wrote: "Bridget wrote: "I'm still trudging along with the audio of . As much as I loved the first one, this one just is boring to me. I'm going to make myself fini..."I get that with audiobooks, I have to have read the book first a few times or the info just floats in and out. Accents don't help, I listened to VA and I could not take Dimitri seriously at all with the hilariously bad Russian accent, and during Talon I just wanted to throw something with the offensively stereotypical "British" accent
Tasha wrote: "Bridget wrote: "Ash wrote: "Bridget wrote: "I'm still trudging along with the audio of . As much as I loved the first one, this one just is boring to me. I'm going to ..."Haha omg I am listening to Talon RIGHT NOW and thought Wes's accent wasn't tooo bad during Riley's chapters, but he has just popped up in one of Ember's chapters and oh my god the female narrator sounds like she's channeling Eliza Dolittle! Sooooo awful!!
I didn't have a problem with Dimitri's accent in VA/Bloodlines...I actually thought it sounded weird in the Khristine Hvam ones when he didn't have one....what was really awful was Adrian's weird British accent, which miraculously disappeared when they bought in an American co-narrator for the fourth Bloodlines
Mod

Well I'm probably 70% in where it seems that Four has this awesome escape/rescue planned. I'll admit it's better now than it was in the beginning. I'm just not loving it like I did Divergent. Maybe it's because it's on audio (I read the first one). Maybe that is throwing me off. The narrator has to be great for me to get into an audio book. I think maybe audio just isn't for me.
