I wasn't a huge fan of The Testing, but I did enjoy Independent Study. The Testing was too much like THG for me. And yes, The Forever Song is FANTASTIC!

I wasn't a huge fan of The Testing. Too much narrative, too much telling rather than showing. I was frustrated for most of it. And it was very similar to THG, so that bugged me. But Independent Study is good, totally different.

That's good to know.

That's good to know.



Donna I am really liking it. Maybe more than the first. And I agree about Ronan, although, I'm liking Gansey more and more. Any idea how many books there will be and when the next will be released?



Yeah, I got the whole Rook & Ronin trilogy on amazon the other day for only .99. That made me happy and it's good too!


I really need to get back to the brothers. I have Quinn & Blay's book next. Heard it was REALLY good.




I'm listening to The Testing Tracy :)


OMG Bridget



I still need to read this duet of books Lila. Have to try and get to them soon.



I'm loving the Raven Boys series so much Bridget. The author has it slated for 4 books and the next book



Yea to me it did because all of a sudden I'm hearing I love yous and I swear they JUST had like one date.



I agree. I loved the imagination and writting was flawless, but there were few issues. It was really good, though. Roth *sigh* at first he really seemed like Seth copy, but he got his own personality pretty soon. He is awesome. I was really happy that there was not much of a love triangle, even though blurb suggested.


I would tell you not to waste your time Danielle, but I did enjoy it till 5th book. Then it got creepy, weird, same old and down right horrible. And the way she ended the series will piss you off. Oh, Sookie doesn't get any brighter either. But Eric is hot. :)) So don't have high hopes. I enjoyed tv-show more than books, but man, they screwed that up too.

Yes, he did remind me a bit of Seth for sure. But then he kind of got his own mold. I just really enjoyed him. I need to see more of Zayne, which I can't wait for in book 2. I need to know more about him for sure!

Ohhh good to know, Bridget! I'm gonna check it out.


I'm reading



The cover is gorgeous & so is the title!


Yes Donna, I'm quite smitten with both too :)








Yes Victoria, The Lumatere Chronicals is a hard act to follow. Such an amazing story. I like Falling Kingdoms. Hoping that book 2 will be even better. And Prodigy was really good. Enjoyed the Legend trilogy a lot. I hope you enjoy them.


For some reason this series never appealed to me. Same thing with Chicagoland series. Or House of Night. I did try the first book to several others that I'm reading pretty regularly or planning on continuing like In Death, Kate Daniels, Mercy Thompson, The Edge, Georgina Kincaid, but I can't offer anything regarding Sookie Stackhouse other than many readers seem to enjoy it.

The Forever Song was a great ending. She renewed my faith in the trilogy (since I had so many bad experiences this past year).

now Belkis and it is good.

Yes definitely agree Brooke. This ending made me happy :)


Oh good Tracy, I'm going to try and get to it next month so that it's still fresh in my mind. I have a few follow-up books that I need to get to hopefully next month.

I could use a little more Jackal, though. I really grew to like him in this book!

I liked the Sweet Trilogy. It wasn't great but it was good. The first book was my favorite of the series.

Isn't he the best! I swear he made this book great. Had me laughing like a maniac over and over and looking forward to all of his parts :D

I liked the second one better. Different strokes and all that but I felt that the second one had more depth to it.

I did love his banter with Allie so much. He's such a snark. A novella for him would be so awesome!

True, it did. Anna grew in that one. I guess I wasn't as into the series as everyone else seems to be.

Yeah, that's happened to me a couple of times as well.

I've heard that from everyone, Belkis. Hopefully I can get to it this weekend:)


4 books, wow. I didn't realize there would be that many Raven Boys books. That's great. I just hate the waiting:( October isn't too far though.

Awesome, love hearing this since Z was my favorite and I was hoping the rest weren't a let-down after that!

Good to know. It sounds really good, although a subject matter I'm a little worried to tackle. But I will try. ;)

Yeah could be. Sometimes we just don't feel the narrator. I'm okay with it so far.
