Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments I finished Redwood Bend (Virgin River, #18) by Robyn Carr and it was another good one for this series. Now just bidding my time until I can jump into Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) by Marissa Meyer and then November 9 by Colleen Hoover AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!

I'm about 75% in and I love the concept of the story. It's not as wowing as MS, though, I will say that. And I am finding a lot of grammatical errors which seems odd to me coming from a reputable publisher.

My copy of WInter will be here on Thursday (I waited for it to come out so I could use a coupon; I'm so cheap).

Teresa | 606 comments So I started but DNF 3 books back to back. Just couldn't get into them. I'm going to go ahead with Her Billionaire Bodyguard Bridegroom by Lisa Weaver and hope for the best.

Good luck. Sorry about the DNFs. I had two last weekend I thought for sure would be DNF, but I pushed to finish them. I need a suck me in, keep me there, I can't put it down book.

I thought this was ok, not as good as her other series."


I'm not far enough in to judge yet but it's OK.

Oh yeah, that's what I need too. I also just borrowed Nightshade (Nightshade, #1) by Andrea Cremer so hopefully I'll like that.

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments I started Hunted (Dark Protectors, #3) by Rebecca Zanetti and it was good but put it aside to start Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) by Marissa Meyer EEEEPPPPP!!! I'm so ready for this!

Well I hope N9 eds up being a good one for you overall Brooke. I hate it when grammatical errors pop out at me and detract from the story. I got it on audio so I don't think I'll have that particular issue. Hopefully it's a good narration.

zach (zachb) | 4 comments Currently reading Winger (Winger, #1) by Andrew Smith .. Its great so far.. will probably finish it tonight. Hopefully I can get my hands on Stand-Off (Winger, #2) by Andrew Smith ebook soon so I could continue straight away after finishing the 1st book.

I finished it last night. I liked it. I didn't love the ending. I didn't actually totally agree with it and thought there needed to be a bit more to come to the resolution it came to. Hopefully you like it. I think I'd give it a 3.5 comparing it to MS and Hopeless


message 23215: by Jodie (new)

Jodie (anntsy) Started Eragon (The Inheritance Cycle, #1) by Christopher Paolini but i'm not feeling at the moment. So think i'm gonna go for A Thousand Pieces of You (Firebird, #1) by Claudia Gray instead.

I've had my eye on these Zach they look pretty good and seems to be a favorite with readers. I'm glad the ratings and reviews are merited in this case.

message 23225: by ♥ Rebecca ♥ (new)

 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments I am reading Dark Destiny (Dark Mirror, #3) by Mary Jo Putney . Its the last book in a series that was one of the first YA series I started when I first got into reading years ago. I dont know why I never got around to finishing the series till now.


message 23226: by MadameZelda (new)

MadameZelda I'm still older works. I am on Book 4 The Fiery Heart (Bloodlines, #4) by Richelle Mead . It's hard to say how I like it as I'm only on the first chapter.


message 23227: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 1075 comments Okay, finished the following the last few days:

Rebel Mechanics (Rebel Mechanics, #1) by Shanna Swendson 3.5 stars
While I loved the reinventing of the American Revolution and the Steampunk vibe, the romance seemed very juvenile, and it wasn't hard to figure out the twists. Enjoyable read if you like Steampunk/Historical Fiction!

Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover 4 stars
This was my first Colleen Hoover book, and I loved it! It somehow seemed so different than most NA I've read. Her writing is BEAUTIFUL, and I was sucked into the story so easily!

Finished my reread of The Bane (The Eden Trilogy, #1) by Keary Taylor 4 stars. Here's my original review if you're curious: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Again by Lisa Burstein PIFM book. 3.5 stars
Even though I didn't find this story realistic at all, I still enjoyed it! I didn't like the MC, Kate very much, but I did really like Carter!

Page (Protector of the Small, #2) by Tamora Pierce 4 stars.
I am really falling in love with this series, and this world! Keladry is beyond awesome as an MC. I'm officially hooked to Tamora Pierce!

Currently reading: Beastly Bones (Jackaby, #2) by William Ritter Vengeance Road by Erin Bowman Browsings A Year of Reading, Collecting, and Living with Books by Michael Dirda and going to be starting Illuminae (The Illuminae Files, #1) by Amie Kaufman soon!

Laura  (llbasaldua) | 790 comments Im about half way through Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) by Marissa Meyer for some reason Audible failed to deliver my audio edition until 5am on the 11th so a day late!! Also happened with November 9 by Colleen Hoover It came out on the 10th and I got it yesterday morning! GAH!!

Anyways I dont really care for the Narrator of Winter but its going ok so far....


message 23230: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 1075 comments Maybe because of Veterans Day? My direct deposit was a few hours late because of that reason. I assume not as many people working, plus the banks are closed

Rina | booksofthemuggleborn (booksofthemuggleborn) | 2 comments I'm just about to finish off Life and Death Twilight Reimagined by Stephenie Meyer and I just started on City of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments, #2) by Cassandra Clare as well. I'm behind on my TMI series and really want to get into it.

I liked this one as well.


message 23236: by Bridget (new)

Bridget | 1517 comments I've been reading Untamed (Thoughtless, #4) by S.C. Stephens . It started out really good and was great to reconnect with the characters. I LOVED the entire Thoughtless series, but this one is kind of dragging in the middle. I really hope it picks back up. I'm ready to finish it so that I can move onto November 9 by Colleen Hoover and Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) by Marissa Meyer .

message 23243: by Teresa (new)

Teresa | 606 comments I've decided I'm going to wait to tackle Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) by Marissa Meyer after I'm done editing my last book. I need to just get it done already and then I can enjoy it without thinking about what I have to do.
