Yeah, if a series has a bad ending and I know about it, it doesn't matter if I have read it or not, it will still upset me. It's happened before.

Funny Tracy! Rebecca read book 1 & 2, it's worth it. It's not that book 3 was a bad ending but I just felt like book 3 wasn't necessary and the all the things that made me love the series wasn't there.

Maybe not darling :) I haven't had much reading time this weekend. My oldest daughter is home visiting for a few days so been busy with her instead. So you might finish it before me. But the little bit I've managed to read so far is really good.

I still haven't read The Bronze Horseman either. Do many bookd sitting in my kindle that I have yet to read. Will need to get to it eventually. Minus book 3 of course LOL! I'd already been advised about it so don't plan on reading it :)

Hahaha! Yes Erin, lots of other readers have also felt this way and understandably because the men in them can come across like brutish cavemen and the women sort of flaky. But they're so entertaining and funny and hot LOL! To me at least :D I do have to admit that they're a guilty pleasure hehehehe.

This was my second KA books, I read Rock Chick after coming off of Charley Davidson, and I loved it. It was like the same as CD but without the paranormal part. This one, just baffled me. Didn't make sense at times, and was not what I had remembered from her. So it was ok, but still.


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments Idk what to read right now..... Boo.


message 4861: by Bridget (new)

Bridget | 1517 comments I just read Beautiful Broken Promises (Broken, #3) by Kimberly Lauren . I love this series and this book was great, but I just couldn't get past my dislike of the female mc. Her initial appearance made her seem shady and even though she got better, I just couldn't get over it!

I loved Monument 14 and then I met the author and loved it even more because she's awesome. She even read Fire Country and wrote me an awesome blurb! One of the coolest and most down to earth authors ever :)

I agree with The Cover Contessa, if any one deserves to be there it's definitely you.


Danielle (Danniegurl) (danniesreads) | 1326 comments I picked up Under Locke by Mariana Zapata right now there seems to be a lot of rambling, it's taking a bit of getting used to this writing style. Not far enough into it to say it's interesting lol.

Oh that's so nice. I love when authors are nice, it makes me appreciate their books even more. Okay David, now I started Ashfall and after that I will try Monument 14. One apocalyptic event at a time. :)

Me too! Mike Mullin is another author who was willing to read Fire Country and is one heck of a nice guy. I loved the Ashfall series too :) ENJOY!!

Couldn't have said it better myself. I loved it. Completely throws Allegiant out of the water. Veronica Roth should take notes. Cassandra managed to create a sense of closure to TID and TMI, whilst still leaving the story open for those who want to read the next series.

Did anyone else get the copy with the comic at the end?

Can finally start Daughter of Smoke and Bone (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #1) by Laini Taylor now!

It was good until Saturday. Although I have to say there were less books around this year than last. And Saturday, well, it was INSANE. I even left early b/c all the crowds gave me anxiety. If there was a fire, forget it, people would have gotten trampled for sure. VERY poorly planned on their part.

Micah (sinvega) | 76 comments Reading a Sample of Incubus (The Incubus Saga, #1) by Amanda Meuwissen

I am actually considering reading an Erotica type book....I am shocked since I am such a prude lol
Crimson Reign (The Crimson Nights Saga, #1) by J.T. Cheyanne

I hate Erotica because it is far too explicit. I don't mind sex if there is an actual PLOT that is focused on and not sex as the main focus. But this books blurb sounds good.

Micah (sinvega) | 76 comments How romance heavy is The Lost Prince (The Iron Fey Call of the Forgotten, #1) by Julie Kagawa

I am not in the mood to deal with a heavy romance book? I need action and excitement...not a boy who goes dumb for a girl and his plot is saving her or protecting her or whatever.

On a scale of 1-5 how romance heavy is it?

I haven't read this one Micah, but how about checking this one out? It's a male lead and lots of action? Rapture (Rapture Trilogy, #1) by Phillip W. Simpson Tribulation (Rapture Trilogy, #2) by Phillip W. Simpson Apocalypse (Rapture Trilogy, #3) by Phillip W. Simpson

I pretty sure there is going to be a third book, not sure if there will be more after that. No cliffhangers :) Each book is a different couple. . .

Oh you made my day, Belkis!! I thought it was centered on same characters throughout the series and I was somewhat hesitant to start an unfinished series. That makes waiting so much easier. I'm few chapters in and already in love with it. Can't wait to finish work, so I can read. :)
