Loved Twilight, but I think the decision to do a gender bender story because some people didn't like Bella's character was wrong. As an author you have to write what's in your heart, some people will like it, some won't but you shouldn't write just to conform to what you think people want.

Mod
and I'm about 50 pages in. So far its EXACTLY the same as Twilight, almost word for word, except all the names..."Ditto. I know this is just a retake on it from the other POV. I'm not really wanting to read it. But I do need a copy for my shelves. I saw it in the bookstore yesterday and was tempted to get it. But I needed to use my coupons for gifts for my son!
Mod
in the next day or two. I loved ! What a beautiful book!"I absolutely adore this series. Up there with HP and ToG for me.

I really want to read the Ivy series. I've heard good things.
Mod
and 
"Really enjoyed the Delirium series. Pandemonium was my favorite book of the trilogy. Make sure you read the novellas, too!
Mod
STILL reading this. It's been a week. It's not a bad story but it's SO SLOW. I doubt it will get higher than three stars from me. The writing is good, but nothing is really happening. And there's SO much description.

Thanks, Brooke! I need to go back and check out the novellas.

Awww Nicole, I love Christmas stories. Richard Paul Evans has a lot of very good Christmas stories.
Rachel wrote: "I will start in the next day or two. I loved ! What a beautiful book!"Such awesome books!!
Okay, in honor of the season and the need to laugh I'm going with
;)
Mod

So it's not filler, it's supposed to give a better idea of who the characters are, I guess? But it's weird. It's present, then they flashback, then they flashback in the flashback! And often times it's hard to see when they go back to present. It's annoying. I'm almost ready to email the tour host about not finishing it.
Finished
last night and it was very good. Not the best KC I've read, but still enthralling. She has definitely set many things in motion and the future books could go anywhere. Exciting!!

I know what you mean, Nicole! I first read Jane Eyre years ago, in high school or college, but I wasn't mature enough to truly appreciate it. Reading it now is like reading it for the first time, and I absolutely love it!! Bronte has earned a place in my heart right next to Austen.

. She's written a ton of other books. She recently suffered a stroke and has a long road ahead of her. It would mean a lot if you visited her amazon page and picked up a book or two of hers.
