What Are You Reading? 2015



LOVED this series!! Perry:):)"
Love Perry, but..."
Yes, Roar was great as well.


I did too, but it's also available as a first read in giveaways!!






I loved how different it was, I thought the writing was brilliant but I've given up on the series, I read all three that are out, but I have a problem with an author who doesn't say anything for 3 years about a book we are still waiting to come out.... Talking about Grave Witch btw.


DNF'd Seeker. Got to 65% and I had no connection with the characters, the plot was confusing/not there, and I think it should be labeled MG, not YA.

What the heck! I read

and found them to be OK. Not a wow but I enjoyed them. However, I just finished
and from about chapter 27 I was in tears. What I up with that?

I saw that. I wonder where she will take it though because this one wrapped everything up pretty good.

Not sure whey writers do that, unless there's a perfectly good reason for it. Is there a blurb for the fourth book?

Tracy,
is basically from Kai's POV. This is the authors note:
"Sweet Temptation will encompass the entire trilogy in a condensed version, beginning with Kai's life before he met Anna, and taking readers through the epilogue of Sweet Reckoning. Sweet Temptation is a companion novel, not meant to be a stand alone story. It will definitely be a richer experience for those who have read the original trilogy"

Ohhh...thanks Sylvia. I understand now. I don't see why I would need to read this one because I didnt love the first two and I don't want my thoughts on the last one to change. In other words, as a whole I wouldn't want to read the trilogy again.

It's really good Bridget you're going to like it I think :)




Oh I really enjoyed Fairest too Teresa and LOVED Cruel Beauty so I hope you end up enjoying too. I SO need to get back to the Outlander series but I dread the goriness and harsh details in the story (at least the first book was quite jarring) and the length of the books (and they get longer and longer as they progress LOL! How did you like book 2 overall? Was it as good as or better than the first one for you Teresa?









I couldn't get past the first book for this story, just wasn't for me I guess... Glad to see you girls enjoying it so much though :)


Oh sorry that you're sick Danielle :( hope you feel better soon sweetie. There's so much flu going around. So many people getting sick. Stay in bed if possible and get lots of rest. Well as much as you possibly can.


Oh Rebecca, please let me know how you like this one. I've got it sitting in my kindle :) this one was a cover-lust buy LOL! LOVE the retro feel of the artwork on that gorgeous cover. Yep, I'm a total cover hound-dog hahahahaha!




I think I liked

Yeah I don't think that's the one....if she comes back to the VA world I don't think it will be for a long time...maybe five or so years...she's definitely left her options open though!




also FINALLY finished

Also for the weekly challenge

Finished

and finished

Now Im listing to


And No I was wrong her next YA book series is SOUNDLESS, based in an epic Chinese-inspired fantasy world.
looking forward to this comes out end of the year November I believe.

Oohh that sounds really cool! Definitely going on my TBR....haven't gotten to Age of X yet but have it waiting in my audible library so glad to know it's good! ...once you read TRC you'll get what I mean, she's definitely tied everything up that needed to be tied up but there's enough there for something down the track

Though Mead calls finishing Bloodlines “bittersweet,” she believes that The Ruby Circle brings the story arc to the right conclusion.
But who knows I sure didnt see Bloodlines coming when VA finished.
Yeah I guess Age of X isnt for everyone but Ive fully enjoyed both books out so far. I guess its just a matter of taste.

Yep...this particular story arc has definitely concluded and I think it was done perfectly :).... However I think she may have set another one in motion for some time down the track...you'll know when you read it - it's the kind of thing that if nothing ever comes of it it probably won't be that big a deal, but if she does follow through it'll be fricken awesome!
Ooh I'm really excited about this new series now! I like her adult stuff but she's just so good with YA

Haha, that's ok. I will let you know. :P




Tasha, I haven't read the other 2 but I loooooved the maze runner series. My thought on Maze Runner itself, was it took a little longer for me to get into because i'm so used to female narrators, and the boys of the Glade have some of their own unique vocabulary that took a little adjusting, but by the end of it I was hooked, and I felt they just got better and better from book to book


Is this the final one? I've gotten up to book 4 (I think). Didn't know how many were planned.


Oh, I thought it was a trilogy. But I just checked and there is 2 more books coming. I understand, it sucks when you have to wait so long without any information from the author. You get tired and move on.




I really liked The DUFF, it was funny and fluffy read. I still have to read the third book in Consequences series. I didn't even know there was a 4th book, I thought she wrapped it up in the third. I hate when authors drag out series and milk it to death. You have to respect the story and just let it go.

I haven't read the third one yet, but I loved Be with Me more than the first one. It was really sweet story.

That's because m/m is very addictive! lol
I do struggle sometimes not to end up reading it exclusively.

Yes it is



Awwww... thanks Teresa :) I'll need to read/listen to it then so I can bask in the wonderful glow of Jamie & Claire's love <3
