Rida - As always there is no time limit on the finish, anyone can join in the discussion at any time.
I will get it on my kindle on the 6th. I was very impressed by the kindle version's price (only 5€!!!). That's cheap for a new release!
I just got a notice that I will receive it on the 6th too! So excited to get it. Now to finish some other books so that I have time to read it!
For anyone that's interested, I found another short story. I didn't know about this one until today. :) It is The Little Android (Lunar Chronicles 2.5).

Lynn- I've started it!
I'm at 20% (didn't read that much last night as I was out and then didn't do my usual staying up until the early hours reading, I actually slept instead. Who'd have thought you could do that!)
What a pickle they are already in!

I'm loving Cress' character already. (view spoiler) I'm already dreading getting to the end of this. I don't want to wait another year for the next one! Waaa lol
I'm not sure your spoiler is actually a spoiler Alycia lol However I suppose it's better to be safe than sorry :)
30% in now - Yes I'm loving Cress too. Thorne is making me smile / laugh as always. (view spoiler)

51% in - Arrrrggghhhh our lovely heroes are not very bright, (view spoiler)
It's all very entertaining but not a huge amount happening really.

Finally got my book today! But, I need to finish one of my others before starting.
Vanessa, Anima, Tullia - Have any of you started yet?

Anyway, so far it is nice to meet all the characters from the previous installments.

Me too, I'm at 10%.
Me too, I'm at 10%.
So I've finished.
I feel that the book was unnecessarily long with nothing really happening for more than the first half of the book. Things did pick up eventually though and I did enjoy it but I do think this was written as a set up for the next instalment rather than a story in it's own right.
The characters are great and I'm becoming really attached to them all. (view spoiler)
::waits for you all to catch up::

That's a bit of a bummer. I really prefer stories that are whole on their own, not just a set up for the next installment. Oh well. I'm sure I'll be looking forward to the next one...for a year.





I ended up stalling out about halfway through. It's just not as interesting as the other two. I'll get back to it later on when I'm in the mood for it.

That's disappointing. I haven't had a chance to start this one yet, but I was expecting it to be similar in pacing, style, etc to the first too. A fun & easy read. Hopefully getting to it soon.

Alycia - Yes as far as I'm aware Winter is the last one (but you never know with these YA series!)
