What Are You Reading? 2015


Danielle, Grant's book is really good. I'm an avid Nan hater as well. Don't think I'm going to want to read her book either.


I know I don't think I could hate a fictional character more than I hate her.



Some of my favorites are

Finished
and, while I thought the story was intriguing, it just was not what I expected from Julie Cross. I know she was cowriting, but I just feel like the story was not tight at all. I also finished
which was a great ending to the trilogy, though this trilogy is a bit weird. And I started
which is interesting so far. I'm also reading an ARC of
, which I'm really liking. I like anything Susan writes, though. She's fabulous.

I haven't heard of any of these books. Did you change your avatar again? Are you trying to hide from me?

Yes, I changed it to my author's newest title when the cover was released last week. And I'm always trying to hide from you, can't you tell? *runs off and cowers in corner*

Something I still need to read! Heard great things about it

Sweet, I loved the Beautiful Bastard Series so I have high hopes. :)



The Girl in the Steel Corset looks interesting. Curious to see how it is.


I'll let you know! Only 7% so far, so not much to say yet :-)

Same here, Victoria. Im in MS and we are having a snow day tomorrow because it says it's going to snow. Not because it has snowed! Lol. But that's alright. I will enjoy my day off to catch up on some reading.
So far behind on posts here, but I'm so excited because I was in a bit of a romance rut and in DIRE need of a great YA read when I picked up
, which I loved! I wanted a bit more romance, because honestly there's hardly any here, but it was such a beautifully twisted and dark change from the contemp and paranormal romance reads I've had lately. I used to love Poe, so it was awesome reading a story that had him as a centerpiece. I heard the sequel is disappointing since we don't see much of Varen at all, so I'm bracing myself for that, but I definitely want to check it out.
I also finished Annie's latest
, and I'm loving this troubled start to Ky and Addie's story!
On a sour note,
was indeed a major bust, I am giving it a generous 3 stars but I'm miffed at the false advertising with this one. THe synopsis makes you expect a mysterious hero with an engrossing dom/sub mystery storyline, and I really don't feel like you get any of that. Bummed!
Reading
,
for review now, and
for my YA fix!

I also finished Annie's latest

On a sour note,

Reading

What's you..."
Damn, Belkis, I need to go through your list! lol A friend asked for suggestions the other day and it made me realize how disorganized my shelves were, I know I have a TON more faves to list. Not sure how I got behind, probably 2013 when I was flying through books and didn't always get on GR to get them in the correct shelves!

Yeah, I'm a little confused. There was the story with Phoebe, and then all of a sudden a blurb like "as Finley's adventures continue in the Girl in the Steel Corset" I thought that's what I WAS reading... and then I start reading what I guess is the actual book and some of the things said contradict the short story


Now back to something more tame and back in my comfort zone.

Looks like you didn't read it in order lol. There is a whole reading order on her website because all the books intertwine. I may need to go back. I haven't picked it up because I'm due to read Grant's books and I HATE NAN I can't stand her. And did you know she will be getting her own book(s)? Yea idk about that!!
