Carina's Help Me Decide Thread

[Caru]

I have , which one should I read next?

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Either City of Ashes or The Iron Traitor because either of those would be continuing a series, whereas the other two would be starting a new series. If you've read the first Iron Fey series, I'd recommend The Iron Traitor as that series seems to be (more or less) a continuation of the first. (I haven't read any of the Iron Fey books. Yet.)

Have you read ALL the Mortal Instruments Books?

[Caru]

no I've just read the first book

[Teresa, The One Who LOVES to Cook]

YOU REALLY SHOULD read the other ones. I'm only beginning to read City of Ashes--Book 2, but my Goodreads Friends tell they're so good.

1)City of Bones (Mortal Instruments)
2)City of Ashes (Mortal Instruments)
3)City of Glass (Mortal Instruments)
4)The Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices, Book 1)
5)City of Fallen Angels (Mortal Instruments)
6)Clockwork Prince (Infernal Devices)
7)City of Lost Souls (Mortal Instruments)
8)Clockwork Princess (The infernal Devices
9)City of Heavenly Fire (The Mortal Instruments)

This is the Order that Cassandra Clare herself says how to Read "Mortal Instruments/Infernal Devices" Books.

I'm going for sure Read them ALL.

[Caru]

Okay so I need help on which order I should read these

[Caru]

And I have

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Of all of those, I've only read Hex Hall. But it was fabulous. All three books were good. But the ending of the first might surprise you (and make you want to read the next book right away).

While I haven't read the Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter, I adored Heist Society. (I'm behind on that series. :( Hope the library has them.)

I am so jealous that you have Grave Mercy. So jealous.

This does have Romance. It also has Vampires, if you like Vampires. It's a Vampire-Human Romance.

[Caru]

Thanks!

You're welcome. I read the first 3 and started the 4th one. They're REALLY GOOD.
