Well Belkis, Legion (Legion, #1) by Brandon Sanderson is good for a laugh and it's only 2 1/2 hours long.

It's really short Erin and I have never read anything like it. I listen to it when I want a chuckle.

I really like these Kelly and they are short to so I can finish them in a couple of hours.

Ashlee | 309 comments Finished Gameboard of the Gods (Age of X, #1) by Richelle Mead and The Immortal Crown (Age of X, #2) by Richelle Mead - loved them both! I wasn't sure what to expect as I've only read Mead's YA stuff (which is the age range I prefer because of the faster pace) however I found that despite the ages of the characters and some more adult themes the structure and pacing wasn't all that different to YA

It's a really original concept and the characters are great - definitely helped to fill the gaping hole left behind by the end of Bloodlines....if only I didn't have to wait for the next one!

Finished Wild Heat (Northern Fire, #1) by Lucy Monroe for review, it was okay but nothing new. Just the simple, quick smutty read I needed after my heart was torn into pieces by Here's to Falling by Christine Zolendz !

On to Secret Harbor (Windfall Island, #3) by Anna Sullivan then I think I'll finally get to Defiance (Defiance #1) by C.J. Redwine for a change-up!

I got Here's To Falling the other day and Defiance is a good read, just push through and you won't put it down.

You are not wrong! I did like this one a lot. Although, I will say, I've met the author twice and I don't know if she's just not friendly or doesn't like crowds or what but she's kind of flat. I gave her all kinds of compliments and it was hard to pull a thank you out of her.

Kelly Elise | 188 comments Finished Steelheart (Reckoners, #1) by Brandon Sanderson last night. Completely different from Warbreaker... like a totally different author. Steelheart was good not great for me although I think it'd make for a really good movie.

and STILL nothing available from the waitlist at the library aghhhh

Oh, wow, that's a little disappointing. Even if you don't like crowds you still try to be appreciative of those who read your books and smile a little.

Entertaining and different but omg. Not sure if I'll be reading book 2. Maybe. Hahahaha. Now started Things We Know by Heart by Jessi Kirby so let's see how this one goes.

Yes, it releases next Tuesday. I purposefully waited b/c I know this one has a cliffy. Even waiting 1/2 a week will probably be torture for me! LOL!

Oh good, I'm excited that it's something a little different than the contemp romance and standard PNR I've been reading lately.
