I agree


I had every intention of reading Winter as soon as it came out but it's not available on audible in Aus for some reason! Now I'm not in such a hurry for it, I've heard the same thing from lots of peopl so I'll just get to it when I get to it
Really looking forward to

Lol Tracy, so many gatherings so little time. I've barely read anything this year. I'm currently reading


50% into
and while I like the idea of the story, and the characters are growing on me, the chapters are WAY too long. I feel like they go on and on forever. This is making the book really slow for me. Usually I read Bracken in the blink of an eye. I've been reading this one for a few days and, while I am liking it, it's not calling out to me to pick it up. This makes me sad.



Oh my gosh! I didn't know there was a second book to MLO! I'm gonna have to look into it.

Crickets chirping around here huh lol"
ha! It's that time of year, I guess. ;)


Yeah Teresa - I'd have to agree with you on Winter. It was good, but a little too big of a book for one sitting. Does that make sense? I thought the last 25% was great though. ;)

I think I heard Belkis talk about Must Love Otters. I need to see if my library has it.

Do authors go on and on because they dont want the book to end? I don't understand why they do that.

I started re-listening to
for something light. I have been listening to
and it's ok just requiring a little more concentration than i have right now.

Not really sure. It's very wordy. I mean, I like it. But it needs to be cut up. I have found lots of places in each chapter where it could have been split, even into 3 or 4 shorter chapters. This is an ARC, so I'm not sure if they will change the format in the final book. But I can see this being a complaint about this book. It's a good story but it's also slow. Though things have been moving at a faster pace since about 50% in. I'm at 70% now.

I love Kiersten White!


I love Kiersten White!

But being in bed gave me a chance to read THE book of 2015. I've recommended it to a few of you already, but seriously, it's so good I'd like to get it's name tattooed on my forehead so everyone I meet knows about it.


It sucks that you were sick with the flu! ARGH! I guess it's bittersweet, since you got to read? And I'm definitely starting tLotBD tonight. ;)


I often wonder the same thing.

Reading was about all I managed to do. At least that was a plus. Lol.
Oh, you'll have to keep me updated. I'm so consumed by this book, it isn't even funny.

I'm in that mixed group. I didn't love it. I am still waiting for her to top Maybe Someday. It's not that I didn't like Ugly Love, Confess and November 9, but I just don't think they are on par with MS.

See...I can't get past Hopeless. It was my first and I'm not sure she could top it for me. I did like Maybe Someday as well though.

Possibly, I suppose. You would think a good editor would point that out, though.

I read Hopeless first, if I remember correctly. And I loved it, as well as Losing Hope. But MS is just...I don't even know what it is.

Oh you have to read it, and Hopeless, like Tracy said. I'm not a big fan of her Slammed series. I read that and POR and I never went on to Will's POV book because I just wasn't impressed after having read MS.

I have to be in a certain mood to read any romance. Hopeless is so emotional and I cried so much through this book.

I finished
and, while it was slow, and kind of drawn out in the narration, I ended up liking it. I really liked the story, though the time travel was a bit confusing at times. And, of course, it ended on a cliffhanger. Not a OMGOSH I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT (because honestly I saw what happened and had realized earlier on it's not what the male main character thought it was. But it's not like I need the book yesterday. Although it would be nice to have the ARC of the next one and not have to wait so long! I started my sampler of
. I don't do samplers and made a mistake when I requested this. But I figure it comes out in just over three weeks, so I can probably handle waiting a bit for the second half. Unless I read it and the publisher is inclined to send me the rest! LOL!




I have to agree with you about MS. I've read all of her books up until UL - I heard mixed reviews about Confess & NN but may start N9 ... soon? idk. I'm not in the mood for heartbreak right now. ;)




Hopeless is amazing. So is Losing Hope. Haven't read any other CoHo stuff to be honest.


Oh, and it is just starting. Wait until you get to know Azrael. :)

I like NN enough, but I wish I would have just waited for them all to be out. They're like novellas with cliffhangers.

Me, too. I was worried. I still think there was too much filler and the chapters need to be cut down into more chapters, but the actual plot was interesting. I think there were some mistakes with the time travel in the way it was explained. Made it hard to understand at times.
