I have been on an adult reading kick lately. I had to read
for my book club, which was good, but slow. Then I read
because it was recommended to me by a friend, it was interesting and made me very glad to be born in age of modern medicine..haha. Now I am reading
just because it looked good. I hope I like it, but I am ready to get back to some YA and NA. I am disappointed to see everyone's opinions on the new Colleen Hoover book, Confess. I was hoping good things, but like everyone else I think her books have gone downhill for me since Hopeless... so now I am not as excited about it.

It is well written, but did I mention slllloooowwww. You could literally skip 3 chapters at a time and miss nothing..haha! My whole book club agreed that it was about a 2.5 to 3 star kind of book. No one really hated it, but no one really loved it either.

Yeah those definitely add a different/unique element to it

Shatter Me series is one of my fav's

I just finished
which was amazing but heartbreaking. I promised someone to do a beta read for them and then a friend of mine just published something and I want to read that too so I'll be busy with those for a while.
I'm reading
and i've been hooked from page 1! I also just finished
and loved it! And finished up

Kelly, Shatter Me is so freaking good. The series gets better with each book. Enjoy!!
I've just started reading
Going into it a bit slow because the main character sounds a little snobbish but I hope it gets better!

Love Narnia but The Magician's Nephew wasn't my favorite of the series.

I was meh on both Defy and Ignite. I liked Ignite better. I hated the romance, though.
Mod
and it was just ok. I didn't love the turn it took, like the twist. Meh! I felt like the author needed something to spice up book #3 because she ran out of stuff to have happen between the characters. But the overall book and series is really cute. I read a bit more of
last night and it's really just taking a turn to boring for me. I'm 69% through so I might as well finish it. But it won't get more than 3 stars from me. Probably more like 2.5. And I'm about 1/2 way through
. It's typical JLA, but I just think I need a different story with the NA. Next up is
while I finish up
- Well I'm 52% in and so far I'm loving it. However you've all said the first half is stronger so we'll see ...

Oh Kelly, I really enjoyed both of these. The Shatter Me trilogy is fantastic! And I'm super excited over the news that The Dwellers series is coming to audios!!!! I can't wait. I've been needing/wanting to get back to The Dwellers series but don't really have much reading time so audios are a great option for me and I'm chomping at the bit for David's audiobooks to be released so I can finally get back to them. Happy reading!
Kelly wrote: "13% through and im feeling a bit blown away. The writing is exquisite"Such a fantastic story and the writing is amazing. I can't wait for Mafi to release more stuff. Loved Shatter Me!
Brooke wrote: "Kelly wrote: "Just finished and Loved it!

I'll finally be able to get to them back to back.

Oh Andrea The Girl From The Well looks really interesting, so of course that's another one to go onto my never ending TBR mountain. And sigh, I still need to get to Defy as well. But the second book came out a little while ago so maybe I'll wait until the story is completed before before starting it. Glad you had a great reading spell :)
