this afternoon...*le sigh*...Lucas is such a tragic and heartbreaking character, I just adore him so much more now!! The story dragged a little at parts for me, but it was just a brilliant way to bring us into his sexy bad boy mind!!

Have you read
series or
series yet? I really liked the first two books of the Ashfall series (haven't gotten to book three, these are LONG books), it is an absolutely brilliant and hard-hitting story. My son flew through Maze Runner and can't wait to see the movie, and it's definitely unlike anything you've read before. Both series are great guy-perspective dystopians.
Starting
. I loved, loved, loved
and I'm hoping this is just as good.
Just finished
and I LOVED it! I prefer romance in my books and even though this didn't have it, I still loved it. It's so clever and I just can't say enough about Sage our male protagonist. On to

Can't say enough about them. The next one has a little more romance but its a distant one. He certainly doesn't have time for much he's busy saving his country.

reading
, not as good as Altered, but I am still enjoying it. Then I am reading
for my book club. I don't know anything about it so I hope it is good.
I've just finished
and it was amazing, utterly amazing. I love all of Gena's books. She writes wonderfully.

If you like Adult PNR I highly highly recommend Charley Davidson series.
The main guy is.......shady but we love him anyways. It's a muder mystery type plot, snark, main character is a chick but she rocks. Excellent series.
Another adult PNR is the night huntress series. Still female lead but still pretty cool.
Most of the dystopians I've read are femaie, and the 3rd books suck, Matched, and Delierium both had bad endings IMO.
Let me think of others.
I'm onto book 7 of Sookie, in book 6 someone reviewed it and compared the books to cotton candy, it's good it's sweet, but it isn't filling and definitely not good for you lol.

I've really enjoyed His Fair Assassin series Rachel. The first 2 books were really good. Hope you enjoy Dark Triumph.

LOVE both these PNR series :D the MC's are awesome! And actually all of the characters in both are pretty great.

it was really good. Starting
and
Almost done with
which reminds me a bit of another road trip book.
I am nervous guys :)I decided to step out of my usual ya dystopian and jump into a book that is definitely anything but. I am now reading
and probably moving on to it's sequel
It has excellent reviews.

(Note to Goodreads: Stop telling me I'm spelling favourites wrong, I'm not :p )

I started dabbling in that a little Lynn. I had to choose a genre or sub genre that I had never read before and that didn't leave me many choices. So by the end of the year I need to read 20 of them so if you have any recommendations I'll take them.

I couldn't decide between 3 or stars, think I gave it 4 in the end. It was a love / hate book for me; I really liked the characters, the idea of the book and the slow burn of the story. However some of the plot was so over the top and unbelievable that knocked my rating down. A lot of potential that didn't quite fulfil.

"Are you just looking for straight m/m romance (no pun intended!) or are you happy with things like BDSM, ménage etc chucked in there with some of the recommendations too?

I like pretty much anything except westerns. haha! I love BDSM but I haven't read menage so yeah those would be good to Lynn.

Yes Brooke the ending of Boundless was a bit frustrating for me too because of the way the character was left sort of hanging without closure. I wish the author would write a followup book to remedy it.
