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.

Totally loving Mateo :P he's so HAWT! LOL! Haven't had much reading time this week. Work has been crazier than usual so my reading time has been nonexistent. Looking forward to the weekend so I can finally read something.

Finished Breakable (Contours of the Heart, #2) by Tammara Webber 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 Ashfall (Ashfall, #1) by Mike Mullin series or The Maze Runner (Maze Runner, #1) by James Dashner 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.

Tiana411 | 701 comments Just finished The False Prince (The Ascendance Trilogy, #1) by Jennifer A. Nielsen 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 The Runaway King (The Ascendance Trilogy, #2) by Jennifer A. Nielsen . I'm addicted!

I read them back to back as well Tiana. 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.

Rachel I am reading Dark Triumph (His Fair Assassin, #2) by Robin LaFevers , No Small Thing by Natale Ghent , and Emma by Jane Austen .
A YA fantasy, a children's novel, and a classic--it's like I've got a little bit of every soul-food group ;).

If you like Adult PNR I highly highly recommend Charley Davidson series.
First Grave on the Right (Charley Davidson, #1) by Darynda Jones
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. Halfway to the Grave (Night Huntress, #1) by Jeaniene Frost

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.


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments 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.

Even without the romance aspect, I love it! I can't believe how much Jaron goes through. I'm on to The Shadow Throne (The Ascendance Trilogy, #3) by Jennifer A. Nielsen the third book. This series is incredible and it's a male protagonist which is a nice change for me!

Micah (sinvega) | 76 comments 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

Captive Prince Volume One (Captive Prince, #1) by S.U. Pacat and probably moving on to it's sequel
Captive Prince Volume Two (Captive Prince, #2) by S.U. Pacat

It has excellent reviews.

LOL, that is definitely different from your usual. I've not read that those particular books but m/m romance were new to me this year and I now love the genre, probably one of my favourites now :)

(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?
