I have seen mixed reviews, some really bad 1 stars and DNF and other 4 and 5 stars...judging by the reviews I think this has more to do with the way the book was marketed and the reader's expectations than anything...its marketed as a fantasy but apparently reads more like dystopian...
Anyway I will reserve judgement until I've read it

http://www.amazon.com/Soundless-Riche...
Alot of them say its very YA others say its very romance heavy and not much story ... I actually dont plan to judge till I read it myself. I just know it has more 2 star reviews on it than anything else and I find that a bit worrying ...
Cant say Im loving the cover for
I really wish she would quit with the full frontal people images on the cover.... I dont mind side of the face and so on but full frontal I get the image of what I think the MC will look like and when I cant match them up in my head from the story it annoys me !! But thats just MO

Really? I thought it was good. Not great, but still good.

I don't mind books with younger protagonists as long as the plot is still engaging enough but if it's too juevenile I might not get too far into it...still, reserving judgement lol

and, while I'll finish it, I can't see it getting more than 3 stars. What happened when this author wrote this book? It's like a totally different person did this story! It's plot is thin and the direction it goes is SO predictable. BAH!

was a DNF for me. I just couldn't do it, and was really surprised that the ratings were so high! I really struggled with the emo's in this books - I could never really grasp what they were feeling since it switched so quickly - like paragraph to paragraph. ugh. I wish I liked it since it's a pnr series... :( Started
and finishing up the 5th wave.

I love the Survivor's Club. Book 2 of the series isn't as great as book one but still really good. But book 1 in the series is my favorite book by Mary that I have read of hers. I hope you love it as much as I do when you get a chance to read them :)

I just finished
which was disappointing. Slow without much happening. It felt like the author was saving all of the action and conflict for book 2. I just started
and am having a bit of trouble getting into it (writing style seems a little basic).

And I really liked Maya Banks Highlander series when I read her
I need to get back to the series as I enjoyed the first book a lot. And I'm also liking her KGI series as well

Okay I finished
and wow! there was SO MUCH going on in this last book! Altogether a great trilogy. Now started
so I can finish another great trilogy and I'm hoping this last book ends the story with a bang!

This is why I have 3 books "ongoing." UGH! I think if I didn't have to work, and the kids still went to daycare, I could actually get some reading done! **sigh** If wishes could be true... Well, I'd still buy a ton of books and be behind! HAHAHAHA :) In the mean while, I'll just chug along and keep reading!

Ladies, so sorry I've been MIA for so long. Life was crazy and busy and there was many things I needed to take care of. But I still read whenever I could. I finished

Hey there Paula :) so great to have you back and I hope everything is alright with you sweetie. Woohoo!! Cannot wait for EH's new book to release!!!! That's one of the ones I'm waiting for excitedly. And I so need to get to the Mara Dyer trilogy.

Thank you. I'm hanging in there. :)
You'll love EH's new book. It's amazing. As always.
And the Mara Dyer series...I could kick myself in the behind for not reading it sooner. I'm waiting for teh paperback of the third book to finally be delivered and then I'm locking myself in the room to read.
I've started
. It's so different from what I expected. It's kinda brutal and slightly uncomfortable but really really good so far.

I was kinda expecting something more fluffy and cozy and let's just say I felt like someone punched me once I started reading. But so good and atmospheric.
