And let me just say they were really good, i was super impressed. They're currently a guilty pleasure of mine, there are some slight issues but overall I'm really enjoying them, and they do a good job of hitting me in the feels in a good way, plus i can't recall the last time i laughed so much. Rating them both 4 stars.
but now i have to wait for the library to deliver book 3. sigh.

It looks really interesting. How much Thriller Vs Romance would you say there is?


message 114: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments More thriller than romance. But the romance is there underneath for those that want it :)


♥ Ashleigh ♥  Contrary to popular belief I'm not actually mad! (cheshire_red) | 121 comments @ Sandra,

That works out well for me, personally when someone is close to dying and all they can thing about is some hottie...... well it drives me a little bonkers. Though undertones of romance in a book can be fun. :D

Anita Reads | 595 comments I finished:
Whispering Rock (Virgin River, #3) by Robyn Carr Déjà Dead (Temperance Brennan, #1) by Kathy Reichs Desperately Seeking Shapeshifter (Midnight Liaisons, #2) by Jessica Sims

Now I'm working on:
Insurgent (Divergent, #2) by Veronica Roth Onyx (Lux, #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

While I can understand why the majority would like Insurgent. It's fast paced and has a lot of action, I just have serious issues with the main character Triss. Onyx I only just started, but so far I'm liking it. I have a soft spot for Daemon. He's hot, and I like the love/hate banter he and Kat have going on.

I really need to re-read the Onyx series. It gets pretty intense.
Hope you enjoy it :)

I thought simliar myself, its still a good enjoyable read,
but there was something missing. I am going to re-read
this when I get a chance.

On a posative note finally managed to gt our library to
get this series in, wait lists for all four books.

Haha, good on your for getting them to add an excellent series to their database.

Yea there really was something missing, but i can't quite figure out what it is...... though i also felt off about the second book as well. Next one is bound to be good though. lol.


♥ Ashleigh ♥  Contrary to popular belief I'm not actually mad! (cheshire_red) | 121 comments Smashed through Taken by Storm (Raised by Wolves, #3) by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is just a few hours. Was really good, though a tad depressing at the end. Really looking forward to the next one though.

Started The Bone Season (The Bone Season, #1) by Samantha Shannon , have mixed feelings about it so far. But I'm interested enough to continue. I quite liked the beginning, not sure how i feel about the strange developments....


message 131: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 3 comments Finished Fire Touched (Mercy Thompson, #9) by Patricia Briggs it was good, but it wasn't my favorite in the series. I also just finished Bound by Magic a New Adult Fantasy Novel (The Baine Chronicles Book 2) by Jasmine Walt which I really enjoyed. This is becoming one of my favorite series.

I will be starting this soon as I managed to buy this The Bone Season (The Bone Season, #1) by Samantha Shannonand the second bookThe Mime Order (The Bone Season, #2) by Samantha Shannon
both were very cheap bargains. not had a chance to start as I have quite a large currently reading
stack that I am working through. I bought these not knowing a thing about them but have seen that
they have good feedback everwhere. I had heard this was a very different strange series.

just finshed listening to

Kitty and the Midnight Hour (Kitty Norville #1) by Carrie Vaughn

I was not expecting musch but its been surprisingly very good

.



message 135: by Anita Reads (new)

Anita Reads | 595 comments I finished these books:
Insurgent (Divergent, #2) by Veronica Roth Onyx (Lux, #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout The Rosie Effect (Don Tillman, #2) by Graeme Simsion Wonder by R.J. Palacio

I ended up giving Onyyx and Wonder 5 stars, both incredible books in their own way. Didn't expect to rate wonder that high though, but it was just so inspiring to read.

The Rosie Effect and Insurgent were both a little disappointing.

Now I'm working on:
The Murder Pit (A Moose River Mystery Book 1) by Jeff Shelby which I don't like much, but it's a quick read as I'm already halfway, with only reading like a couple of chapters at a time
Chained by Night (MoonBound Clan Vampire, #2) by Larissa Ione Only 19 % in, but so far so good.

I loved Onyx and like you was disapointed with Insurgant never bothered with the third
book. Gave Divergant 3 stars I started this series afterI read the Hunger Games series,
there was so much hype over it at the time perhaps I might have thought differently
if I had read the Divergant series first



message 138: by Anita Reads (new)

Anita Reads | 595 comments I really enjoy the banter between Daemon and Katy, and I've decided that Daemon is my new book boyfriend. :)

The main reason I didn't like Insurgent (gave it 3 stars as well) was that Triss got on my nerve a lot.
I also seem to steer away from Sci-Fi romance a lot. Don't know why. I really liked Hunger Games, and read the first books in Uglies and 5th Wave, which I also liked. The thing is though, most books I read from that genre are books I don't like.

The series was definitely different and had a really unique take on the whole clairvoyance thing. It takes a really strange turn about ...20-30% in that i was completely surprised by, didn't see it coming in the slightest. And originally i wasn't sure how i felt about it, but it ended up being pretty good. I'm going to rate it 4 stars. (I thought there was some small holes and a tad cliche in the romance department, but thats mainly me being nitpicky)
I def recommend giving it a go. I'll be picking up the next book at some point.
I'd be interested to see what you think!!


♥ Ashleigh ♥  Contrary to popular belief I'm not actually mad! (cheshire_red) | 121 comments So i finished The Bone Season (The Bone Season, #1) by Samantha Shannon it turned out to be pretty good. Thought the ending for me was a little anti-climatic. 4 stars.


Going away for the easter weekend and not sure what I want to read so I'm bringing 3 books (in case 1 turns out to be terrible, & i manage to read another one, lol)
First Grave on the Right (Charley Davidson, #1) by Darynda Jones I've been encouraged to read this for as long as i can remember, so i finally grabbed it
Under the Never Sky (Under the Never Sky, #1) by Veronica Rossi also a highly recommended book, no idea what its about or if i'll like it
Sweep in Peace (Innkeeper Chronicles, #2) by Ilona Andrews which I'm bound to love < guaranteed good read

So yeah, between these and my friends & ridiculous amounts of chocolate I am not doubt going to have an excellent weekend!!

Worth keeping an eye out for the second book The Mime Order (The Bone Season, #2) by Samantha Shannon on
Amazon, I got mine hardback very cheap and even though it was supposed to be
secondhand it looks like a brand new book. We have been getting some good bargains on there, we always pick the ones that are classed as very good or nearly new. Everything we have bought so far has come in under $5 (US) or less inc P&P.
