I just finished
which was absolutely epic and I NEED the next book so bad it's not even funny, and started
which is really... underwhelming so far.

At first I thought you meant the season and I was like NOPE! Now I realize you are referring to a book. And silly me since this is a book site! LOL!

which is ..."That's a resounding YES!! On the release of the next - and hopefully the last - Raven Boys book Nitzan. LOVE this story!!
I finished
just now & it was a little slow paced up until the last ~15%. Then it took off & I was hooked. I kinda hate that just 'cause I expect the next book to be the same. Ugh. But I'm gonna get to the next one eventually.
finished
and
all 4 stars. All for the TBR list Challenge. All had been on my list forever.restarted
and over half way throw and hope to finish today. Love these characters and this world.
Okay I finally finished
and it was "meh" I think I seriously need a complete shakedown read LOL! I need to wipe my reading pallet with something raw, jarring, intense! So I'm going to jump into
since I actually have the luxury of a quiet evening that I can sit down and read a book yay! I hope it's as good as the ratings and reviews say it is. And book 2 which is being highly anticipated releases in August so in case book 1 ends in a cliffie the wait for book 2 won't be too long. Also contemplated starting
but again, the second book doesn't release until September so the wait for book 2 for this one is further out so I decided to read this one closer to the release of book 2. But wow, both of these look like what I need to read right now.

I think a lot of 1 books in a series tend to do that to us Donna. Hopefully book will have better pacing. I have this series in my tbr too and plan to give it a try sometime in the future so I'm hoping it does turn out to be a good one.

I know a lot of people loved Tokyo, but I just couldn't finish it. And I rarely do that.
Just finished
Another 5 star read that I recommend! Especially to fans of Laini Taylor, the style was similar, and this is a very unique fantasy! Loved it!!
Jenny wrote: "Just finished

I finished
which was adorable and definitely my second favorite book of this series. And I also finished
. I liked it but I was a bit annoyed at the way the MC acted about her relationship. If you read it you'll more than likely understand. I don't want to spoil things. I am reading
which I like despite how political it is (I think it's interesting because this was the year I graduated and the kids are exactly the age I was, so I can really related to this book).
I want to start something else but I'm not sure what.

I'm so glad you loved it Jenny because this is another one I've had my eye on since before it's release and I grabbed it on audio so plan on listening to in my July lineup :)
Nicole D. wrote: "finished

. I'll need to move the books up my tbr. I'm hoping they come to audio eventually. Audios are so much easier for me to get through with my work schedules.

Okay I finished
and it was fantastic!!! I need book 2 right now!! My goodness that ending!!! Highly recommend for those lovers of MC stories and or intense/gritty reads. This one is SO GOOD! Thank the lord
releases in a few weeks because the wait is going to just about kill me LOL! Now to finish
which I'm also enjoying :)

I don't know why it's taken me so long to get to it! It's soooo good! & Of course KA is great! (Although I have to say that book 3 of her Colorado series wasn't my favorite... it's still good:)

That does sound good Jenny. Will have to check it out.

Maybe the later books are better?
Okay finished
and it was alright, but not great. Now listening to
because the MCs for this book were introduced in the first book and I was intrigued by them and the promise of a sort of beauty and the beast type storyline :) I'm hoping it's a good one!

Interested to know what you think. I will say I didn't enjoy this as much as her ToG series.

Started
and so far I'm still waiting for something to happen at 16%. I'm not sure what the crux of the story is. I'll see where I'm at at 25%. I really loved this author's other book
so I'll be sad if I don't like this one. I think I'll also pick up either
or
. Not sure which but I need an otherworldly read at this point.

Just started
. Hasn't pulled me in yet, but I've read another book by this author and she seems to build her stories slowly, which I'm okay with. I think it will pick up as I keep reading. I had
on hold at the library and it's finally ready for pick up, but I'm hesitant since so many people said they were underwhelmed. I guess it doesn't hurt to give it a try.

It's honestly not great writing, but it's one of those series I just loved anyway. This one, though, just didn't cut it.
