[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

Well, I was never too fond of him, but I don't dislike him either. Just maybe irritated with his frequent disappearance which is probably not his doing.

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

He told me that it is some sort of technical problem. I don't think he would abandon Goodreads even if he found a job.

[Sanne]

I was wondering if anyone has read the Fairytale Retellings by Jackson Pearce? I don't know if I should read them...

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

I'm afraid I haven't.

[Sanne]

Hi there, Aaron :)

[Sanne]

Just a bit stressful at the moment, but I'll manage.
How are you? Did you take a break from goodreads?

[Sanne]

It seems like everyone is pretty much stressed out today haha. Ah, I understand. Welcome back!

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

Aaron, you're back!

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

There was someone who liked you a lot here.

[Yelena]

Yea he was an interesting person.
What's up Aaron?

[Yelena]

Prepping for an exam tomorrow... But other than that I'm doing well!
Working on my writing whenever I'm not studying :) so that's good.
Sounds like good lounging weather over there in Canada

[Yelena]

Novels :)
I finished one and juts did my first run at the second book in series. I'm having a few people editing it now and so I revisited book one and fixed some spelling and embellished on some things. I'll probably update it to new version in next month or two

[Yelena]

It's a fantasy.
There's a world with two races of people. The Madonians who are talented with wielding their power into physical objects, like they can create a sword. Some of them also have an animal type bonded with them and they help the flow of power and control.
Then there are the Rami who have endless power, very explosive, but they lack control and sometimes even hurt themselves because of it.
There's a big war between the two races.
There's also a third party of people who live on a moon that orbits the planet.
Anyways the main story is about a Madonian girl who is a part of the Madonian council. Her family is murdered and she sets out to find help to take out the man who threatens her world.
I'm bad at describing... It's hard to say enough to explain but not give anything away

[Yelena]

Really? Even though there's no spooky horror?

I'm going to give ebook version out for free for a few days on Amazon. I'll let you know when that happens and you could check it out :)

[Sanne]

Hey, I remember being in a group where they would do reading sprints, but I'm not sure which group it was. We don't have that in this one, do we?

[Sanne]

A reading sprint is when you and someone else set a timer (for 20 minutes or at 15:00, something like that) and in that time you try to read as many pages of the book you're currently reading. Afterwards you tell the other person how many pages you've read, but that's not really the point of it. You basically just encourage each other to read, that's it haha.

I'm sure you're a great online buddy!"

Sorry to interfere, but I'll have to agree with Aaron on that one, haha

[Sanne]

I feel the same way, although I spend a bit too much of my time on GR these days :P

[Sanne]

Haha, it sounds kind of fun actually. Though I'd probably be scared to death when the powers goes off.. :P

[Sanne]

That makes it sound not so bad at all. Like camping in your own house haha! How old is your son by the way?
Haha I can imagine that, that is a bit uncomfortable.

[Sanne]

Hahaha :)

Sanne, I'm afraid we don't have that, though I've been wanting to make it. I'm not sure how many would actually participate in it, but do you think we should introduce it here?

Yes, Hallie?"

This was a part of the conversation I was having with a deleted member.

You two don't know me at all!

[Sanne]

I think it would be fun, but I'm not sure wether people would participate either.

[Yelena]

Oh no snowed it!!! I just started my spring break lol one week off from classes.
So having a late start to my day :) this morning. I'm planning on visiting my parents for the night, which means free food!!!

Well, let's give it a try starting March 15th.

Okay :)
I found the group, by the way.

[Sanne]

I just finished My Name Is Memory and I don't know which book I should read next. I've got Red Queen, Incarnate, Life As We Knew It and Paper Towns...

[Yelena]

@Sanne I've been reading shatter me.... I love it!
So good. I think I may finish it tonight or tomorrow. :)

[Sanne]

@Yelena; I'm glad that you like it! :) I've read the entire series in Dutch first and I started reading Shatter Me in English, but my e-reader crashed, so I couldn't finish it :/

[Yelena]

Oh no!!!!! Is the e reader completely broken??

Annnnnndd I just finished! :) I'm ordering the rest of the series tonight! I must read them all :)
Is the trilogy all good.

I'm so excited.
(view spoiler)[.so they never said this word but the main character is she like a succubus? And Warner is nuts!!! And I love Adam :) (hide spoiler)]

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

Is Shatter Me really good? It's on my to read list.

[Yelena]

Yes Hallie. I really enjoyed it! And bought the next 2 books in the series tonight after finishing it :)
The writer has a poetic style of writing that I found really nice. The main character grew though out the story, I liked the love story that unfolded, and I just loved it all. Can't wait to see what happens next.
Hope you read it and like it!!

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

I download the book a little earlier, so I'll read it soon.

[spoiler..."

Yes! You should totally read the rest of it. I personall didn't like Unravel Me and Fracture me as much as I did Shatter Me, but Destroy Me and Ignite Me are reaaaallyy good :)

No, the e reader isn't completely broken, it's just that all of my files were deleted and the battery won't charge, but I'm sure I'll be able to fix that.

(view spoiler)[I don't think they ever use the word succubus in the series, but I won't spoil anything ;) Warner is definitely nuts haha. (hide spoiler)]

[Sanne]

Good morning, Aaron! Good luck with shoveling.

[Sanne]

Oh that's good, how long did it take you? I'm feeling moderately good, but I do have a lot of school stuff I need to prepare/finish. Also, I've got a Skype interview with what might be my future host family, which I'm very excited about!
How are you?

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

Aaron, could you explain everything that is happening to your account?

[Hallie, I'm all about the books]

Maybe there's something wrong with the previous email id. I hope it stops because many in the group like you.

[Yelena]

Yay second family!! :p

[Sanne]

I hope they can fix it, because it would be a shame not to have you in this group!

[Sanne]

By the way, I got accepted by the host family in London, so I'll be in London next year!

[Yelena]

Yayyy congrats!! When you leaving?

[Sanne]

Thank you! In September, after the summer break. (So, next year as in next school year haha)

[Sanne]

Thanks Aaron :)

[Yelena]

So exciting congrats!!!
Also I'm reading destroy me and man the kids dad!!!! He is awful.
I feel like I understand Warner better. He's kinda growing on me. But he still crazy and scares me
