WooHoo!! I grabbed this one too Brooke of course LOL! Let us know what you think please :P"
I never read the final book, so not sure if it includes any of that. I know it's his POV, that's all I know.

Yeah, that's what I've heard as well :)


Oh I'm saving this for the weekend! I want to be able to read it uninterrupted. Well, as uninterrupted as you can be with a husband and kids.

I never read 50 shades of freed."
Is that the last one? If so, neither did I. By the end of the second one I had had enough

Yup Penni I love The Original Sinners series so much. Did you read it too?

I've read the first one and Seven Day Loan (a novella). I still need to read the rest. I thought both of the ones I read were very well done.


Congratulations Jenny!! That's awesome. I love it when I pass my first 100 book for the year :) I'm at around 150 so far so I'm crossing my fingers that I can reach 300 by the end of the year. Woot woot!!


Oh yes Bridget I do love the On Dublin Street series too. Still need to read this last one and looking forward to it and say goodbye to this great series. Love Samantha Young :)


OMG!! Okay..."
Oh Penni let me just tell you that the next books in the series are Fanfreakingtastic!!! I absolutely LOVED them. I can't say enough good things about this series and the writing. Such a treat.

That sucks, hate it when a storyline I knew could have been great just falls flat. =( Sorry, hon!

Yeah, I felt like the actress was a little cold, too. After I finished season one of the show, I grabbed up the book to see if that ending was better than the show's, and Claire came across as much more tender with him than the actress portrayed her. Maybe that's just how she was supposed to handle it, but I personally wish we'd gotten some of THAT ending, because it would have made me feel a lot better than the cut-short final moments we got in the show.

Mine just popped up, but I don't know when I will get to it!

So I finished
and I'm honestly disappointed. It was WAY too long and not much ever really happened until near the end, and my expectations were far off from what we got with this one. Given the age of the characters, I was expecting a more mature storyline, but Ava came across as SO young and naive for a girl in her twenties. And I'm sorry, but what 20-something guy uses the term "daggum"??! Not saying books have to have cursing in them, but ugh it's annoying when teeny-bopper terminology is used by adult characters in a book. That on top of the numerous editing issues just frustrated me to no end, as much as I hate to say it.

Thanks! Way to go Belkis! A few years ago, I read 345 books in one year!! It was INSANE, I've never been able to repeat that!

Holy moly. 300. Don't know how you can do that. Thank goodness there's so many good books out there. I wish I could spread my reading addiction to my husband and children. I have to beg them to read. I've been a book lover since I was a kid but I wasn't allowed to watch TV or play video games and my kids are.

Oh yes. I love the Scottish accent. I can't get enough of it. Wish I could move to Scotland and just hear it all day long :)
OMGOSH I just saw this post about
. It was HILARIOUS. All highlighted quotes tweeted throughout the day as the person read the book. OY! I think I am going to have to pass. I thought maybe, just maybe, it would be better. That the editor/publisher would pay more attention. But there's no fixing bad writing when it's just BAD. YEP!

I'm not keen to read it either. Not in the mood to re-read the same story even though it's told from Fifty's POV….I read that quote you added on FB and I laughed lol

LOL! Yeah Teresa I don't watch tv or play games. Reading is my addiction plus my daughters are grown and out of the house which frees up my time for just me :) My girls also love to read but they have loads of schoolwork with college so they don't have much time left for leisure reading but when they're flooded with school they read a lot too.

Wow Jenny that's awesome! I wish we had 2 sets of eyes and ears so we could read/listen to 2 books at a time hahahaha! There are soooo many books I want to get to :P

Did you ever read her



Yeah I kind of felt the same, Erin. I mean there was hardly any "significance" in the book at all. No powers, no imprinting (other than a touch here and there) just a whole lot of nothing and very anticlimactic.

Yes I read














Crap I still need to read the Significance series too. OMG I'm never going to be able to catchup my tbr :$


It's all our fault, LOL. We are avid readers and we keep piling the TBR shelf with page after page of to-be-read books. We are a different animal. My friends do not have a TBR shelf. They casually read one book after the next. But they have a life in-between books, don't they?


It's awesome Belkis. Well all except this spinoff book.

Oh good and agreed, love her writing and her imagination. Every one of her series are so different from each other. I still also need to read her
