LOL…okay. I'm hearing all kinds of things about the end. I can't WAIT to dig in, but I only got half way through book two because I got distracted by edits and then never got back to it. I HAVE SO MUCH CATCHING UP TO DO! And now you ladies have me all hooked on EH. Not enough time in the day! :D

I've started reading
. It's an interesting fantasy concept that I haven't read much about. It's a bit strange but I can't wait to see how the plot turns out.

Lol the only partial solution I've found so far is audio books - I can listen to them while I'm busy doing stuff
Okay, almost half way through
and now that I've given it a real go I'm hooked...will probs finish it tonightI think my problem was definitely having to put it down so often in the first eight or so chapters...also, the main protagonists don't spend much time together at the start but now that they are its getting more interesting!
Melissa wrote: "I got

I am surprised it's on Kindle Unlimited. That's cool!
Well to start off with there is the FEVER series by KMM
then there is
was a great trilogy and
is a spin off of it also.
was good but I never got around to finishing the series I still have them on my TBR tho! I have
and
but havent read them yet.But they are by Maggie how can they not be good? I really need to read them yet also! The
books have so so ratings and Ive been told are good but have never tried them.Ive bought and heard
is a great series also
are also supposed to be a great series but again havent read them.I think finding a series thats just about Fae/Fairies is hard to find or they end up being too YA for me ...
I forgot all about
I have the first book on my Kindle Ill have to give it a go soon! I LOVED Marrs, Wicked Lovely series one of my all time favorites also The Iron Fey books were great too.
I cant think of any other Fae series that dont focus just on Fae It would be nice to have some good selections out there.

Audios are little miracles that keep me from goin crazy when I got stuff to do and cant carry a book/kindle around with me!! Im totally addicted to audios now!

Oh good! Because I really want to read this one Ash.
Laura wrote: "Audios are little miracles that keep me from goin crazy when I got stuff to do and cant carry a book/kindle around with me!! Im totally addicted to audios now!

I can listen while I work, travel, commute, run errands, cook, do laundry, clean, everything! And now more and more books are coming to audio! Plus they save my eyes LOL! I also find that in most cases they enrich the book experience because they sort of bring the characters to life and when the narrators are good it's fantastic.

Perhaps wait a few days - last year I had a similar issue with
but it was just that the ebook had a different releaseOr if you're going to be reviewing it get in touch with month9books, they are very generous with review copies...definitely my fave publishers to work with

Audios Sylvia LOL!
Agreed about the eyes part! My eyes have gotten so bad over the last few years from reading and reading in dim light and so on so yes audios are definitely an eye saver too! Also a lot of Authors are now putting their books on audio now I see them often asking about Audios and how often used on their FaceBook Author pages.
Also agree about having an Amazing Narrator! They can make or break a book for me and Ive learned this the hard way Ive listened to some Amazing Narrators that can take me away with the story and then again Ive heard some that grated my nerves and made me quit listening. But all in all since I started listening to Audios on a regular basis I havent had but a few bad experiences!

OK so I was just looking to see when the next book in the Raven Cycle was coming out and saw the release date has been changed to February 2016!!! as it was September 2015??? The Raven King GAH!! The wait the wait!!!Im skeered now that I was reading a post and someone has Maggies Tweets screenshotted and they are of her talking about how Gansey is going to die??? I mean I knew she "promised" it was a done deal from the beginning but I didt think she was for serious?!?! But again I can see this as a twist and have my own idea what she might do here ...

For me too Laura, most of the narrators have been good, some are awesome, and a few have been mediocre. But thank goodness not many have been bad. Love love my audios.
