message 3951: by Nicole (new)

Nicole I keep waiting for someone to post a book on here that I've read before so I can comment. But people keep posting book I've never heard of. This isn't helping me reduce my to read shelf.

I was in the mood for a dark romance, and I was gonna go with Monster in His Eyes (Monster in His Eyes, #1) by J.M. Darhower , but then I heard it has a cliffie, so I am gonna wait on the series for a bit. I guess I will go with Destroyed instead.

I love Cress, both the book and the character. And I agree the books are getting better with each one!

I started Deep Blue (Waterfire Saga, #1) by Jennifer Donnelly and so far I like it. Wondering where it will go. I will start Nantucket Red (Nantucket, #2) by Leila Howland this week as well as I need to review for a blog tour!

Amanda (mandy) | 1311 comments I just finished Quintana of Charyn (Lumatere Chronicles, #3) by Melina Marchetta last night. She is brilliant, absolutely loved it. Getting ready to start The King (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #12) by J.R. Ward :)

Amanda (mandy) | 1311 comments Oh, I want to get my hands on Seductive Chaos (Bad Rep, #3) by A. Meredith Walters which I think just came out and Rush by Nyrae Dawn which comes out tomorrow! Love Nyrae Dawn :)

 Marla | 514 comments Finished The Atlantis Complex (Artemis Fowl, #7) by Eoin Colfer and Midnight Sun (Twilight, #1.5) by Stephenie Meyer . I was underwhelmed with Midnight Sun. It didn't add much to the story and I normally love male POV books.

I'm trying to finish The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde .

Well what are you reading? You can still comment too!! Lol. We love to hear what others are reading even if our tbrs are suffering lol.

Haha I know that feeling!


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments Micah wrote: "Idk what I want to read lol"

Well what do you typically read? What are you in the mood for? Maybe we can suggest until something pops up for you. What I do is I go to google sometimes and type in the top "genre" I'm looking for and it'll usually bring up the listopias from goodreads and I go through those to see if I can find something. Then I go to recommendations look over there, and also ask for a recommendation in that section if I still can't find something I look through my tbrs until sketching jumps out.


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments Yep I went and did it I'm in the middle of Dead as a Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, #5) by Charlaine Harris anyone whose read this story ever thing geez do all the men in this book have a thing for Sookie? If Sam's not kissing her, Bills showing possession, Eric is inquiring about what happened between them, Alcide is asking her to date him, Calvin is prospecting her for kids lol it goes on and on. It's a bit extreme to me.

One of the million of challenges that I am doing is to start with a book you really like and read something off the "Readers Also Enjoyed" list in the upper right corner of the GoodReads book page.

Or you could go to the Recommendations option on the top line of options on the GoodReads screen. And pick one of your shelves that represents what you are in the mood for and GR will suggest books to you.

Or you can do a challenge that will direct your reading. (This is my current favorite, hence the million challenges in progress.)

Laura  (llbasaldua) | 790 comments I started watching True Blood because of the books and after season 1 I was like WTH!!! but I did enjoy the first 3 seasons and can happily say Im glad this season is the last and believe there are only going to be 8 or 9 episodes because the show got so cray cray and far from the books.
Bridget Im like you I could go on and on and on they really are two different stories eventually. There was also talk about a movie that Allen Ball wants to do a Movie of True Blood but who knows. I was glad when he stepped back from the show but by then it was so far from the books it really didnt matter anymore.

Laura  (llbasaldua) | 790 comments Finished The Testing (The Testing, #1) by Joelle Charbonneau Independent Study (The Testing, #2) by Joelle Charbonneau <-- hated the ending also a lot like Hunger Games.

Also finished Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover early this morning in one sitting. It was good but predictable for me so just ended up being meh.

Starting Tithe (Modern Faerie Tales, #1) by Holly Black

I liked book 2 better than book 1 in The Testing, way too much like THG in general, though.

message 3972: by Laura (new)

Laura  (llbasaldua) | 790 comments Yeah Independent Study was better but I really didnt like the way it ended I had to look at make sure I didnt miss a chapter or something it was like it just cuts off I hate those kinds of cliffy endings they are the worst!

Yup, stupid cut off cliffhangers. I've had the next one for a while but just have not had time to get to it. I don't love the series like I did THG or Divergent.

When I have "idk" moments I usually go for cute, fluffy reads. :) They don't need much of a brain work and always work as a buffer.


message 3977: by Ekaterine (new)

Ekaterine (thegoddess) | 478 comments Finished Wicked Little Secrets (Prep School Confidential, #2) by Kara Taylor and completely lived up to my expectation. I adore this series. *sigh* August won't come fast enough! Also read The Avery Shaw Experiment by Kelly Oram and loved it. Adorable totes threw up all over that book. Currently reading Vain (The Seven Deadly, #1) by Fisher Amelie and debating whether to start Breakable (Contours of the Heart, #2) by Tammara Webber or wait till the weekend. Toughie.

Nicole D. (thereadingrebel) | 969 comments rereading The Mortal Instruments series to get ready for the last book

also reading The Road to Pemberley An Anthology of New Pride and Prejudice Stories by Marsha Altman


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments Finished Dead as a Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, #5) by Charlaine Harris anyone else think it's a bit extreme to have 6 people interested in the Mc? Onto the next one Definitely Dead (Sookie Stackhouse, #6) by Charlaine Harris , I was hoping that Bill would disappear, he's so boring and always getting in the way of Sam and Sookie. Idk who I want her to actually be with though.
