According to reviews it was handled well so I may have to give it a shot. Hey, is this an ongoing theme with her books? She did the infidelity thing with her Experiment in Terror series.
Just finished " The 5th Wave" by Rick Yancey.I really enjoyed it! Looking forward to the release of book 2 in August.
Starting "the Iron King."

But naturally I will still read this stuff.

This one was a hard one for me to get through Tracy. The 3 main characters were so UGH! Don't want to give anything away but I did not enjoy this one at all.

So I started the True Blood tv series, and I'm into epi 5, which I'll watch tomorrow, but it is almost like this entire season is the entirety of book 1 of Sookie Stackhouse, I am now wondering if or when the series deviates from the book? Because if the entire season of each is each a book, then I might as well watch the series then lol. For some reason it is much more entertaining than reading the series.For those who have done both, how closely related to the books are season 2+?

posted the review here for anyone who wants to read it ^^ http://willreadtillidrop.wordpress.co...
Finished
. I highly recommend this trilogy. If you're a fan of Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey series, you will most likely really enjoy this. Great male MC and a good story! I also finished
and it was eh. I thought it would be better. Very religious undertones, which is not my thing. And not much happens. Very little action to move thing along. I would pass on it unless you're desperate for something to read. I just started
. I'm only 8% in and I love it so far. I can tell I'm going to speed through it! And I'm excited I get to go to the launch since the author lives two towns over from me! I will also start
since I need to review it by May 6th. I am reading some beta stuff for two authors, as well. And I need to get to
ASAP as I'm on the blog tour. Hope it's better than the first one.

@ Danielle- true blood ends up being nothing like the books! And in my opinion thank a higher power, bc the books go waaaaay downhill!!!!

Great so far!"I really am enjoying All Our Yesterdays so far David, it's very intriguing. And I still need to read Partials. That's another story that sounds very interesting. Glad you're enjoying it.

And thanks for the recommend on The Rising King series, will have to move it up my TBR then.

So sorry Marla.
LeeAnna wrote: "@ Danielle- true blood ends up being nothing like the books! And in my opinion thank a higher power, bc the books go waaaaay downhill!!!!"When does it change? Cause I'm bored with knowing what will happen in season 1 since it appears season 1 is essentially book 1 of the book seires. And yes, I am bored of the series I mean I find it interesting, but like I said I'd rather watch the series.

The first three seasons follow the books pretty closely, the fourth season already has mind of its own and little in common with the 4th book. 5th season was so bad and totes of the track I stopped watching. I didn't quit watching because it didn't follow the book but they screwed it up completely IMO. I don't know if actors weren't being payed enough or just got bored but they stopped acting, just read the lines like robots. GAAAH, I hate Hollywood. They make awesome TV-shows, 3-4 seasons I'm loving them and then they turn it into the Brazilian soap operas. I really, really enjoyed first three seasons, though, more than books.

One of my favorites and book 2 is great too. Can't wait for book 3 to come out! Glad you're enjoying it too :)
Thanks everyone for the kind thoughts. My husband is holding up. Trying to catch up on the past week...behind on chores, sleep, work and reading.

Thanks, I have yet to read book 3, so I'm debating if I will or will just watch the series. They talk robotically already IMO but I also think that's how the books sounded as well, so maybe I'll see the difference when I get there but yea I think I may or may not read them who knows lol.

I'm loving Only Everything. It's really fun so far. All different points of view, and who could resist a book with the Gods and Goddesses in it? Keepers of Life is such a great series. I hope you like it. I love YA series from the male POV.

I started
but so far I'm bored. Maybe I need to wIt to get into it, idk. But I'm still pushing into it. She's only in Greg's office now hiding in the corner reading the file. We shall see. Otherwise idk what I'm in the mood for. Now I've really gotten into the show a True Blood, I find myself cracking up during it sometimes. It's definitely much better watching than reading.

By season 2 it veers away from the books. I liked the books much better. I think Sookie's character is sort of set up as a "dumb blond" who turns out not to be that dumb after all. As far as paranormal series go I felt like this one was actually very different from others I read because in a way it's sort of humorous. I'm not sure if Charlaine Harris meant the books to come across that way or not.

The parts where Kate and Curran banter are hilarious! They have such a funny relationship and great chemistry. Hopefully you'll end up enjoying them.

ItD was so beautifully, tormentingly painful, it just rips your heart out but it's impossible to put down! I'm bummed because it looks like she took a different direction with the sequel and it's hit or miss with reviewers. Not sure I want to ruin this one for myself by reading it!
