MadameZelda wrote: "Laura wrote: "Finished LOVED!!! OMG that ending!!!! When is the next out???"Looks like fall of 2016!"
Ugh! I'm going to try and see if I can hold off reading the first one until we're closer to the release of the second one :D

Laura wrote: "Finished LOVED!!! OMG that ending!!!! When is the next out???"LOVED this one too Laura!!! Unfortunately the next one won't be out until next September ;( however given how quickly this year has gone I have no doubt the time will fly by!
Read
last night - it was such a sweet novella! And now I think I have an idea of what the fifth Shadowhunters World series might be about, but we will have to wait and seeOnly one more TftSA novella to go now then it's going to feel like aaaaggggeeessss until Lady Midnight! Argh, that book better be worth this pain of waiting!

Oh Ash hahahaha! Yes I hate waiting on book releases ;P
Just found out Richelle Mead has a new YA series coming out next year -
...it looks very interesting and exciting! Was it just me who only just found out about this or has it snuck up on everyone?I'm definitely excited but I have to admit I really wish there was more news e.g release date, cover, blurb etc for the next Age of X - I feel as though it's just been sitting there with its title and no other info forever

It started off pretty good - interesting - but now I'm kinda thrown on how it switches POV repeatedly... in the middle of a paragraph! ugh. it's a little frustrating. I hope it slows down and gets a little better. Will let you know
Ash wrote: "Just found out Richelle Mead has a new YA series coming out next year -

Ash wrote: "Just found out Richelle Mead has a new YA series coming out next year - ...it looks very interesting and exciting! Was it just me who only just found out ab..."Ohhh this does look very interesting indeed Ash. I wasn't aware of the release of this new one for her. I'm also stacking up the Age of X books until they're all released before diving into them so I'm not frustrated while I wait.
Finished
and it was great! Looking forward to the last book in this time travel series. Now starting
so I can finish off this other great pnr trilogy!
Mod
is not particularly grabbing me. I am interspersing with
but I'm not particularly loving that either.
Finished
4 stars. I love this series! This one was just as good, if not a little better than the first book, Indelible. I love fairy stories in general, and this one is very well done. And I love that this was not all about Ink and Joy, either. It was really more of Joy's story.
Read
it was okay but didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the True Reign series - it actually read like a first draft with lots of sloppy dialogue and for some reason the MC who is a princess in a medieval-esque fictional world kept using words like ' blimey' and 'bloke' (the latter being particularly frustrating for me as an Aussie bc it was being used as a kind of insulting term akin to 'cad' or 'arsehole' when it is actually just a slang word for 'man'.....anyway it made no sense at all for this MC to be sounding like a 1950s London copper...it was just weird!!I can't remember whether the True Reign series was like this - I'm sure I would have picked up on the weird slang but it's possible dialogue problems may have slipped past me, I've become a lot better with my critiquing since then I think...I do think, story wise, the True Reign series was much more engaging and more polished and I also would have liked to see storylines from other characters' perspectives in this one - the subplots were really quite weak
Lol that's enough of my rant!

It wasn't bad. An average read.

was a DNF @ 37%This was so disappointing. This author wrote 2 of my favorite books of the year and then this was just so horrible. The hero was a jerk, the kidnapping and drugging of the heroine by hero was just wrong,and a few other things just made this unreadable. I am just so disappointed.
reading
. This series hasn't let me down.
Mod
is just bugging me. It's nothing like the first book at all. So much is centered on sex and not because it's a good or important part of the plot line. I'm having a really hard time reading it and it's making me sad. I know I need to finish, though, because I know stuff happens to Zack in this book that's important for his book. GAH!
Mod
and now I'm reading 
"What did you think of ACoTaR?

That is really frustrating Nicole but sadly we've all had that happen at one point or another with a favorite author or series. But on a good note I'm glad to know that The Survivor's Club series by Mary Balogh is a good one since I have a couple of the books sitting in my library somewhere so I'll look forward to reading them.

Oh good to know Kitlina, I've got this one sitting in my kindle so I'll move it up :)"
It's a fast and very entertaining read. There are some moments when I almost fell out of my chair laughing. And the heroine is just kick ass.
