I loved this one The..."
Great. I love everything Sarah Maas, but I think a few people on this thread mentioned it took them a while to get into it so that made me nervous. I think this will be my next book.


Well,


I couldn't agree more - after years of audible I've worked out which narrators I love and which ones I'm not a fan of…if it's someone I've never listened to I'll give them a go but if they're terrible I get a refund and opt for the ebook instead…it really does make a huge difference

I loved ..."
Yes, unlike ToG, which pulls you in right from the first page, ACoTaR does take a little while to get into…it really starts moving at around chapter 7-chapter 8 and then it doesn't stop
Here's my review if you'd like to check it out https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Great review. I don't mind waiting a few chapters for the story to get going. That's better than a book that starts out with a major scene and then drags in the middle. Twilight started out real slow and I loved that series. I feel like a lot of books start with a big action scene and you're like Yeah, and then the rest of it is so boring.


I plan on reading this one next too Teresa so I'm hoping it's another good one from Maas :)



WooHoo!! I SO want to read The Girl at Midnight Brooke :)


Yay! And I still need to read Sila's book LOL! Now I've got 2 books for this great series to get through :P

Yes very true Bridget. Thank goodness I haven't had too many awful audio narrators.

For future reference, you can just do the free month of audible and then cancel, then have the audible app and use your "free account" once you cancel to start using Whispersync in..."
LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only Amazon fanatic Rachel :)


[boo..."
Oh I have the Valerie Dearborn trilogy too Danielle, have had it for a long time sitting in my kindle. So did you like it?


Yes, but in some ways I feel like it lost sight of its objective. Idk. I did like it though.


Oh okay thanks Danielle :)

Gotta love the customer service at Amazon Ash. I've done that too. Whenever I get an audio with a narrator that I can't deal with I'll return it for a refund and they take care of it right away.

Awesome review Ash! I think I'm ready to read this one next and after reading your review I'm even more ready :)


Well now I have such a long line of good books I need to get to soon it's not even funny Brooke :P very excited to get to this one, have been wanting to since before it released. Need to get through all my books faster.

No worries Sylvia, we're all in that boat right along with you :P


I haven't read it either Sylvia and there's a book 4 out now too!


This one has been on my currently reading list for a month. I might get to it. Sigh. I read the first few pages.


Yup Erin! I have had book 3 for the Phoenix Pack in my kindle forever too and I now there's a fourth book out so now I've got another one for this series to get to. Well eventually LOL!


Yes it was really good Erin.

Oh there are so many series I have that response to, from my fave authors, too! lol
was good, but definitely not as great as her first two. I'll be reading Dark Instincts soon, I'll let you all know if it's worth a go!

You will :D

I have Dark Instincts on up next list Erin. I didn't care for book 3, but I'm with you on holding out hope I love S Wright and am hoping this makes up for the last one.


So beautifully written and a completely enthralling story!

Never heard of this one. This is the same author for The Fifth Wave, yes? I didn't read that but my friends have loved it.

Maybe you'll like it more than I? I am finishing it today. I will tell you this, if you are looking for that romance and romantic tension she had in the other two books in this series, you won't find it in this one.
