It's so very good. I didn't cry. I teared up a few times, but I never actually cried. I rarely cry at books. You might need therapy. Depends on how thick your skin is!

Erin, it wasn't as bad as the Adam/Warner debacle. I still love both characters. One just wasn't introduced until the second book. And when he was, i switched teams. The first is still an upstanding character and he is still fighting for Evie. I just dont want him to win;)

I'm very jealous that you got to attend Apollycon. I guess I'll just have to live vicariously through you!

Awesome!!! I saw her table :)
I know, I'm so glad I went to JLA's table first because I was there until like 5ish and could not believe how long the line still was, it was crazy!!

I didn't cry when I read the book but I did get that huge lump in my throat. However, I watched it yesterday and balled.

I didn't think it was the same either. Death's story wasn't known until book 2 and Evie didn't even know any of it.

Okay, that's good. I honestly struggled with Jack for awhile anyway, but ended up liking him in the end. So it wasn't much like Adam for me, because I adored him from the very start and was pulling for him big time, whereas I could take or leave Jack.

Because there really isn't lol it's a miracle we get the chance to actual read at all. Having some downtime is such a rare thing indeed.

Yeah, I think she was able to get out last night. She's so super awesome. We played Cards Against Humanity on Friday night! I brought it along because all the Carmcats from the street team who were there got together. So much fun

Hey guys, I sent a message out yesterday but not too sure if everyone read it or not but no one has even suggested any books to read for BOTM in April. In case you all missed it, here is the link…https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Have you guys read the BOM
yet? Maybe not since it's only the 3rd but this is a really easy read. I want to start the next one as soon as I finish these mysteries.

I'm a fan of this series too. I even was satisfied with the result of the love triangle.


Read this one what feels like forever ago! Never got the second one because the library only had audio versions. I need to just cave and try an audio book at some point. I'm scared it'll ruin a book i'd otherwise love - which is probably stupid. I don' thave a commute though since I work at home, so haven't had much need for audio. Once you get on to book 2 let me know how it is! Maybe i'll cave and buy or go for the audio



Yeah, I wasn't ever completely sold on Jack either.


The movie is really good. I cried for like half of it because I knew what was coming.

I like those kinds of books that make you feel satisfied, rather than robbed lol

Well now you're making me want to finally get to the sequel! Though I may wait for all of the books to be out so it's not a torturous wait.

I finished an ARC of
, which was really sexy and I liked it but between my contemp romance rut and re-reading (and watching) Fifty Shades last month, it was a bit too much of the same old same old for me. Still a good one to add to the TBR, though. I'm also reading
for review, and seeing as how it's a similar concept (filthy rich and cocky womanizer), it's not wowing me. I have to say, it IS different because the heroine is very feisty and sassy instead of being some awkward mousy thing, and the storyline has had some twists to give me something to work with. So I'm optimistic!
Finished
and I liked this one, too. It was pretty much a werewolf version of
, but with the emotions more subdued. I'm probably at a disadvantage there, because I loved how strongly Maggie and Caleb felt for each other even though it was an instant connection situation. I still enjoyed Matefinder (thank you, Danielle!!), and it inspired me to re-read Significance today! lol


Finished




On about 10 waitlists for more YA, so in the meantime... i'm diving into

Edit: LOL and ironically she references YA like a chapter in: "And by 'adult' I mean someone who isn't drunk. It can be your kid sister too. She seems pretty responsible for a sixteen-year-old. I mean, she's always reading those YA books, so she must have learned a thing or two about life"


I'll have to bump Matefinder up then. I loved the Significance Series!!
Bridget wrote: "FINALLY finished
. I just wasn't feeling it throughout the whole book. But I made myself finish."
Yeah, I felt the same way. Almost like the first half of the book dragged on like there was no tomorrow and the last 1/4 had the umpf we were wanting from the beginning.

Well, this week has been crazy busy for me and I'm still making my way through

I didn't like it as much as Divergent. It got to political for me.

I want to read Article 5 Nicole. I think one of our weekly challenges is to read a book with a number in the title. I may read this one.

hahahaha chook is slang for chicken :D and running around like a headless chook implies that I'm just going with the motion without my head screwed on ie. lost my mind ages ago

h Ok, I guess that's alright then. I was really fearful of you losing your head. I have felt like that chicken for some time now. Working 12 hours a day and then coming home to cook and go straight to bed is killing me.
