What Are You Reading? 2015
I finished reading
4 stars. I loved this story! Sucked me right in! Really amazing world building. Everything felt very authentic. My only gripe was the teen angst got to be a bit much. It wasn't even romance teen angst, but BFF Teen Angst! But overall, a fun read!Now reading
and I'm really liking this one as well.
finished

last night and loved it! What a great, sweet story of improbable first love. Really great. Then I started
aaaaannnd.... it's okay so far. Pretty slow and not the greatest writing, but I'll hang in there a little longer. I'm at about 30% right now and I'm hoping it'll pick up.

I'm just starting
because I've heard so many great things about it. Hopefully it lives up to them!

I still need to read her DD's first series too Donna and having read and really liked aSoHO so much I'm definitely going to move
up my tbr asap. Also, I just finished Deviant and it was pretty good. Moving onto
next.
finished
and loved it even more then Prick.Now reading
finally. I have started it before but always got into another book. I am looking forward to it as I am a huge fan of the author. I have read tons of her work.

I'm definitely getting into it, great escapism with a world of its own. I think I could be sucked into the series too!

Yay! I'm so glad you're enjoying it Katie :)
I finished
4 stars. This was a pretty typical NA story...both guy and girl damaged, find each other, try to make it work. I did think this one was more realistic in its viewpoint, though, and I really really liked the characters! I really liked it, except for that HUGE CLIFFHANGER!

Brooke wrote: "Jenny wrote: "I finished 4 stars. This was a pretty typical NA story...both guy and girl damaged, find each other, try to make it work. I did..."True! Need to buy it first though ;)
I finished
4.5 stars. I loved this read! Very dark PA/Dystopian story about 2 sisters trying to make it in post-war destroyed Manhatten with their mother. There's danger and death everywhere, and finding questions to answers results in more questions than answers. The action was incredible, I loved the plot, and the world building was very well done. If you like PA/Dystopian, this is a must read!
Well because I like to punish myself I did a relisten of
and actually liked it (third times a charm) But I still say it really does not need 7 Narrators nor did it need so many POVs A few are really pointless to the story. But overall I'd give it 4 stars. (Anyone that listened to the Audio notice there is a repeated sentence a few times? I thought it was just me from rewinding it but this time around I noticed it but forgot to mark it.)I finished
Im really not sure about this one. I feel like Been there done that kinda story.... But I want to try
before I decide on it. ATM I dont have the best feeling towards this book. Not sure why or if its the feeling I have of "I know this story" Hrmm Now Im listening to
and I know its got some great reviews. I believe was #1 Erotica of last year. But Im just not getting it. Its the same ol story with a slight twist but seriously for those that have read it Who would go along with this seriously?? Surely not me... And Im talking about the $$ and the "retrieving" I laughed so hard at this point then I had to ask everyone I know IRL If this happened to you would you go with it? LOL Yeah yeah Im weird like that. BUT If it dont get better soon Im about to DNF and start something else.
Finished

this morning. I'll probably have it finished before bed. I'm struggling to put it down (even though I've had to eat lunch/dinner etc).

I could not finish There Will Be Lies. Glad you liked it more than me. I think I stopped at 100 pages in.

I WANTED to like it since everyone else did, but I couldn't get into it. Yes - I found it a little too unbelievable. LOL.
Saw this
on kindle deals and read the sample. I liked it so I'm going to continue with it.

Oh I love PoA it's my favourite of the HP series!!! I first read it when I was 13 and I'm pretty sure it was the first novel I've ever stayed up all night reading!!
Was not a fan of the movie though - as much as I love Gary Oldman I thought he was just so completely wrong for Sirius and Michael Gambon (who, again, I have loved in other things) was such a let down after Richard Harris's amazing performance in the first two. Also, even though I don't usually have too much of an issue with slight plot alterations to suit a film format, so much of what was changed was just stupid and wrong and just didn't make sense!
They did get back on track after that though, the other movies were reasonable but nowhere near as good as the books! :)

I need to read this. Yes I know, I'm probably the only person in the world that hasn't read this series yet.

OMG, YES you do need to read it!!
I just had to stop
. Ijust couldn't do it anymore. 50% in and FINALLY we get to whats going on. And not really, because we still don't know the plot! Jeez, I have other books I want to read. So I think I'll start

Mod
and loved it now starting 
yum ..."Loved Tempting the Best Man and IAD!!
Mod
! lol Sorry, couldn't resist. Need to get on that one! Wow, there's a never-ending run of jokes with that title...Finished
which was pretty good but not really enough substance...this series could have easily ended at 2 books but oh well. Next was
, which I loved, Monica never lets me down!!
Hello kindle deals has done it again! Im only about 40% into
but let me tell you this book is pretty awesome right now. I'm only stopping cause my eyes are getting tired from reading all day.

They were such fun, easy reads :) I'd love to see JLA take on a big PNR series along the lines of IAD or LotU...she's sort of heading in that direction with Titan and Wicked I think, but I'd really love to see something in a big huge world with loads of interconnected characters - she'd be really good with that I think
Just got done reading
. Really great second book. Should check that out if you're into mystery and light romance. Nice plot and keeps the story interesting to hold your attention.Am now currently reading
I am about 70% done with it but throughout it all, I feel like it could have been held better. I wasn't able to keep my attention on it like i previously would have been able to. I like how the author makes her seem like a sensible teenager but c'mon, enough with the "beautiful green eyes."
Mod
last night. It was a slow start but I ended up liking it. Definitely ended on a note to have a second. I hope it's soon. I think I'll give it 3.5 stars. Now I really have to finish
! And then I'm going to read
for a blog tour.
Finished
and it was really good. Gave it 4 stars because the girl irritated me a few times because i felt she didnt listen well. But she learned.

So far, it's super good. Kind of creepy too. But it's making me remember why I loved JLA so much to start with.
I am continuing to read an older series, book 4 of the Mythos Academy
by Jennifer Estep
I finished
last night, very quick read and was surprised with how much I loved it. Currently reading
which is so far great, creepier than I expected.
