Nicole D. (thereadingrebel) | 969 comments finshed Fairest (The Lunar Chronicles, #0.5) by Marissa Meyer and Wait for You (Wait for You, #1) by J. Lynn (which I restarted after not getting into it the first time but got into it from page 1 this time).

I loved both these books and reviews to come.

I am trying to decide which book to read next.

Finished Legend (Legend, #1) by Marie Lu and a little confused with the romance thing. It did get good for me at the end though. Thinking about reading No Rest for the Wicked (Immortals After Dark, #3) by Kresley Cole for our next week challenge.

Paula (littledarling2012) | 621 comments Just finished End of Eternity 3 by Loretta Lost and it was really good, though not as good as the first two ones.
Now in need of something completely different, so I started The Memory Witch (The Memory Witch, #1) by Heather Topham Wood .

40% into Seeker (Seeker, #1) by Arwen Elys Dayton and really need to finish it by Monday the latest since it comes out on Tuesday and I must review. Started Gravity (The Taking, #1) by Melissa West which I'm really enjoy (even with the tense errors).

I'm at 30% and so far I really like it. The concept is really interesting and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes. It was free on Amazon this week so I grabbed it. I'm actually on the blog tour for the third book and they gave everyone an ARC but I won't get to read it before publication date

I was on a serious book high after reading The Five Stages of Falling in Love by Rachel Higginson this week, it was INCREDIBLE!! Ripped my heart out multiple times, but I loved every single character in that story. I know a lot of its meaning hit home for me because I could relate so strongly to her mentality of finding love. Being a single mom of four and thinking a man will want all of that baggage is a huge wake-up call, and she had a lot of the same thoughts that I do. It endeared me a lot to her, and so on top of this incredibly moving and heart-wrenching story, I was right there with her. Beautiful story, realistic and genuine, and I loved every second!

And then I read Archer's Voice (A Sign of Love) by Mia Sheridan and I SO wanted to love this book. Part of me did, I mean Archer...wow! Adored this man. But Bree drove me crazy with her monotonous thoughts and how slow she was to figure things out, and a lot of the plot was just too unrealistic for a contemp romance. I loved the concept, just wish it was written by someone who could have handled it better. Sorry, I know pretty much everyone on here loved it, I'm bummed!

I loved Soul Avenged, but I will say it's not as good as the other two. Definitely try out Soul Resurrected (Sons of Wrath, #2) by Keri Lake , I grew to love those characters with the last two books!!

I might I know I can love the brothers, Ayden was just cold. And then the whole I love yous in less than a week put me off.


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments I *think* I want to read a NA book. Idk what yet. I want books similar to Fall Away series which I know is hard. I'm so sick of characters that do dumb things, like the obvious dumb things and what not. The beauty of Fall Away was I couldn't figure out where they were going nor did I think any of the characters did stupid things. I might have thought they over reacted but nothing obviously stupid lol. I'm trying to figure out an example, basically something predictable like where they allude to the character getting hurt and the guy wants to protect her and tells her to say stay put but she goes anyways and gets into trouble/danger/bad position that sort of thing lol.

I literally had an adrenaline rush with racing heart while reading some of the scenes in Falling away. I love it so much I wish the series wasn't ending, seriously. Anyways I know many of you read NA books so lmk please.


message 15531: by Tiana411 (new)

Tiana411 | 701 comments Erin, I just finished reading Archer's Voice (A Sign of Love) by Mia Sheridan too. It took me a while to get into it, probably because Bree was boring in the beginning but I ended up loving it because of Archer!

Kitlina | 195 comments just finished The Mermaid & The Crocodile (The Kill List Series Book One) by Edee M. Fallon for the R4R and it was very very good. its a very fast read so go give it a try :)

Erin, that right man will come along and love you and your kids hun, trust me! You're an amazing women who is strong and independent, and who deserves all the love that the world can offer. I really believe his just around the corner and will enter your door when you least expect it because it's time. He will love you for you and appreciate all of your baggage so to speak lol

I'm really wanting to read both those books, but sorry to hear that Archer's Voice wasn't a hit with you hun

Trying to move forward in Seeker (Seeker, #1) by Arwen Elys Dayton but having hard time of it. I'm at 49% and I just don't see the plot all that much, to be honest. I looked at the ratings and there are A LOT of 1 and 2 stars. I don't usually go by what others think, and the writing is good, but the story is SLOW. How on earth will I finish and review this by Tuesday? I don't think that will happen!

I loved both of these Erin. TFSoFiL was so heartbreakingly beautiful and had me in tears so many times through it. And I'm sorry you didn't enjoy AV. I didn't love Bree, but I loved Archer and the story so it ended up being a great read for me :)

Okay, I've got only 10% left on Ignite Me (Shatter Me, #3) by Tahereh Mafi and I'm trying to savour it knowing it's going to be the end of the series. Then I'm going to start my amazing Bestie's books The White Witch by B.C. Morin and By the Sword (The Kingdom Chronicles #3) by B.C. Morin EEEPPPP! Works well for our Week 7 of the Weekly Reading Challenge we have going on.
