Missed you and YAY for QoS. I loved it so much. I don't even know where to start to write my review!

Glad to have you back Belkis! I actually thought of you earlier lol because I'm about to start Sea of Stars (Kricket, #2) by Amy A. Bartol and Darken the Stars (Kricket, #3) by Amy A. Bartol

As for QoS - I was a little disappointed, but only because I had such high hopes. Most of it was really awesome (I still gave it 4 stars) but there was one aspect that I thought SJM, the amazing author that she is, could have handled so much better...I saw someone say that part read like fan fic and that actually is not a bad call in my opinion

it wasn't the actual outcome I had an issue with but the way it happened - it was just a bit abrupt I think, and could have had a better build up ...and tbh, now that aspect, which had the potential to be totally awesome has fallen really flat for me and I have a feeling will just be really boring in the next two books. (I hope I'm being cryptic enough so people don't have it ruined!)

I completely agree with your assessment of the romance scenarios in QoS Ash. I was kind of like "hmmmm.... not sure how I feel about that....." I mean I love Rowan but like you said ..... hmmmm... dunno. I guess we'll have to wait and see where SJM takes it. Although the hot animosity brewing between Aelin & Chaol is very entertaining and I can't wait until all that pent up chemistry implodes *grinning wickedly* LOL!

Oh no. Not liking that. Still want to read it but I think I'll feel pretty bummed if the romance part falls flat.

Oh no Teresa no it's not flat it's just surprising is all but you know how SJM likes to keep us on our toes :P so of course it's a ride with turns and hills and bumps and all as usual.

I just finished it :) It was good, well it was to me :)

I see your reading the next Sarah J. Maas book. I have to wait for it to go to paperback, I hope it don't take too long but I have the third one and the novella one's to read anyway. Uh, I think I wrote this once before. My brain!

I'm glad you at can at least read at all, but I can only imagine how frustrating that can be. Your going to have to do the audio books. I can't afford to do them unless they are selling them for cheap. I can't afford audible so... Good luck with your reading :/

Thanks, Melissa. I'm not going to give up just yet. I just have to live with reading an hour or maybe two at the most instead of hours and hours. My husband used to say I was on vacation when I read. :)
