I do that all the time!! It's really bad when you have to work the next day. But when a book is really good, it's so hard to stop. One more chapter turns into 2 more hours!!

It seems like an overwhelming majority which is why I absolutely love the Phoenix pack and the Mangus pack, now those are some good pnrs with plots. There was another one too....uh......not the breeds, these guys were special forces but a werewolf shifter division, they got a lot of drama going on there. Something with labs for sure. I really enjoyed those ones too. I'm sure it's in my shifter shelf if I looked lol. But have you checked out that series? Or noticed this trend? Like most of these books are like 200 pages which are a like a sneeze to me lol.
So I started
havent had much reading time so I havent read a thing for a few days. So far its ok The narrator is meh and if leaves me wanting more Ill be moving on to

I have heard it was not as good as the first one so I'm not sure. Too many others that I know will be good but I am glad I listened to BBR.

Tracy wrote: "OK Belkis, I just got Ceaseless on audio for 1.99 so that will be one series I can mark off my list. *squeal*"Exactly LOL! I bought too. It's so cheap :) so I got to finish this trilogy off today.
So I finished
and loved it as much as the first one, if not more. Such an intricate story. What an imagination. Can't wait for the next book. Then I moved onto
and I enjoyed it too. Next up
so I can bring this series up to date to. Still feeling the afterglow from Before Jamaica Lane which was really really good.

And the writing is so beautiful it's almost haunting. So much detail. I made myself go slow so I could enjoy it and not miss anything. Hope you enjoy it.
Im interested to see where the Crewel story goes I really liked it. Looking forward to BRR I heard many good things about the series.Belkis wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Just finished

I liked it,but was a bit weird I flt like it was to centered on one character,not that I dont like Ronan but IF shs going to give them all a story then it would be nice to have the full story instead of more mystery. I like the series so far but the more mystery at the end of each book is annoying me! Belkis wrote: "So I finished

But it's usually (at least so far) worth it! I just hope nothing too complicated happens that day until I have my coffee!

Belkis wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Just finished which was ok and which was really really good.

However, the second book was a disappointment for me. I just thought the story kind of fell apart in book two and the things that made book 1 interesting were missing in the second one, maybe it will improve for the ending, but it fell flat in the middle.. IMO
Sylvia wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Bridget wrote: "Belkis wrote: "So I finished and loved it as much as the first one, if not more. Such an intricate story. What an imagination. ..."I love this series, it is so good. I can't wait for the last one! so well-written and intriguing.
Mod

We really don't talk that way but in books and movies they portray us like that. Anyway, I heard that about the second book Victoria. Since I was OK with the ending of BRR I'm like Belkis and not going to read the other two. I would like to hear more about Saba and Jack but not if the book isn't good.
Laura wrote: "I liked it,but was a bit weird I flt like it was to centered on one character,not that I dont like Ronan but IF shs going to give them all a story then it would be nice to have the full story inste..."I felt the same frustration Laura. And it's really hard to follow at times with so much mystery being heaped on top of mystery. Another 4 star read just like the first one. But the writing is SO beautiful. It's like reading a painting.

Oh Laura I'd like to know what you think of Altered (Crewel 2) when you're done to see if the story gets any better.

Too true. It was definitely worth it this time.

Book 1 ended well enough for me to just leave the story there so I'm good with that too Victoria. If you end up reading book 3 please let us know what you think.

I saw you guys were buddy reading this one David. Have you finished it?

Finished
onto
though I may have to take a break. I read the synopsis of the coming books and got a lot of vital info that probably gives away the next book and that irritates me why do books put what happened in previous books in their synopsis they could have been a bit more ominous rather that out right saying what happens ugh. So I may need a break I might not we shall see. If I do I'll go to one of my fillers.
Mod
this series is a great one for anyone with tweens. It's funny, quick and teaches many life lessons. I love listening to it because it cracks me up. I listen to them when I want something light and sweet.
Tracy wrote: "Belkis wrote: "So I finished and loved it as much as the first one, if not more. Such an intricate story. What an imagination. Can't wait for the next book. T..."I listened to them Tracy and the narration is fantastic. Really well done on both of them.

I have both books on my Bookshelf but I listened to the audios and really loved the narrator of both books but Book 2 gets a lot more added layers.But I agree with Belkis I love Maggies writing she is just amazing! But like I said book #2 adds a few more layers of mystery to the already mountain of it in the first. I think I might have to relisten to them agan or maybe read them myself this time around I feel like I missed something.. Tracy wrote: "Belkis wrote: "So I finished

I read it when it came out I liked it and looking forward to whats next.I dont think its amazing but it was good.Katie wrote: "

it was meh. I couldnt get into the narrator so I wont be rushig to listen to
even though i already have it on audible. (it was on sale .99 I couldnt pass that up lol)Not sure whats next Got a busy day tomorrow hrmmm ...
Laura wrote: "I have both books on my Bookshelf but I listened to the audios and really loved the narrator of both books but Book 2 gets a lot more added layers.But I agree with Belkis I love Maggies writing she..."Yes Laura I totally agree. Loved the audios of both. But book 2 was somehow even more layered, more intense, more, MORE. That's why I took my time listening to it and only listened to it once I was relaxed and in bed so I could focus and savor it. Honestly there is so much happening as far as different threads of the story being woven and twisted that you find yourself straining to not miss anything. Not a single second. I thoroughly enjoyed it. That narrator is brilliant. He adds the perfect voice, intonation, and emotion to the story's atmosphere.
Exactly he is a really good narrator! I could listen to him read me any book LOL I listened to it alone while Hubby was at work and daughter out with friends. So I listened in two sittings,But I still feel like I Missed something or I dunno something is just nagging me to listen or read it again.

Seriously I think in a lot of my progress thoughts I'm like omg Riley stfu ya know? But I still enjoy the books and give them a 4 star rating. Cause they are really good and I definitely don't know where it's going or who is the suspect. That part is nice, but the romance part she is so obtuse.
