You didn't like your last read very much, so how about Born of Deception (Born of Illusion, #2) by Teri Brown , since you liked the first? :)


message 205: by Emily (new)

Emily - Reads Must You could start Don't Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout a little early?


message 206: by Abi (new)

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments Or you could go by the release date:
Blackout by Jan Christensen Starstruck by Nicole Ciacchella Shattered Secrets (Book of Red #1) by Krystal Wade Hooked (Hooked, #1) by Liz Fichera have all been released already. :)

Started blackout because I came across it on my kindle, some bloke asked the main character how old she was, she replied eighteen, and his next question was 'are you married?' How many people are married at eighteen?

I'm going to be away from the 17th until the 25th, so I'm not going to have internet ☹ maybe the 26th?


message 216: by Tati (new)

Tati On second thought, would the 9th or around that time work for you?


message 217: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90920 comments Mod
Yes, I could probably squeeze it in then ☺

message 224: by Emily (new)

Emily - Reads Must How have you read 3 books?? I haven't even finished Don't Look Back yet!! I keep getting distracted! I think I'm only about half way through...


message 225: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90920 comments Mod
I finished Blackout by Jan Christensen first thing this morning, then read Hooked (Hooked, #1) by Liz Fichera & Don't Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout , then I read The One Safe Place by Tania Unsworth (which was awful). I haven't done anything else today though, just been sat here with my kindle.

Echo Boy by Matt Haig - the book that Emily is talking about ☺

Okay, yeah I agree that doesn't sound like my usual book but I might ignore that if its really good. Did you get it from Netgalley Emily!? :)


message 234: by Emily (new)

Emily - Reads Must see I wasn't sure to start with but I'm finding it really interesting. It's been ages since I've read proper YA sci-fi. it's usually haphazardly done and really annoying but this is good. Only just started though.

Bye-bye bad streak ☺


message 240: by Rachmi (new)

Rachmi  | 4882 comments My mobile phone which has Kindle apps broke down :( I'm afraid I have to re-format it. If it happens I won't be able to read ARC that are already in Archive on NetGalley. How can I review it when I can't read it? is it possible if I tell the publisher about it and ask for another copy?


message 241: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90920 comments Mod
If you've already sent the book to the kindle ap you can retrieve it from amazon. does the kindle ap have a search facility? i don't know if it does. anyway, otherwise, go to amazon (whichever site you use), go to your account and log in, then click 'manage your kindle'. this will bring up a list of all the titles on your kindle/kindle ap, including those from netgalley. simply search for the title you want, and then select 'send to kindle(or kindle ap), and it should send the book to your ap.

Rachmi  | 4882 comments Thanks, Sarah. I have to re-format my phone, all of my data and app lost. I use Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 and when want to re-install Kindle app, they (play store) don't have it! I'm so confused now. Can you help me?

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90920 comments Mod
Do you have an account with play store? Is there a way to log in and see what you have previously purchased/downloaded? Maybe if you can log in you can redownload it because you downloaded it from there originally?
