Oooo I so want to read both of these!

I'm also about 70% through

Oooo I so want to read both of these!
So I finished the Shadow Falls series (finally!) There is a sister series that I haven't read, but feeling accomplished since I started this series awhile ago!
I read the 2 short stories:
which were both about Della. Since the new series is about her, these made me more excited for it!
Also read the final book
4 stars, but only because I adored the ending.
Thoughts on the series in general: Its fun YA Paranormal, but it did get a bit long and I felt the plot was way drawn out in each book. I liked the characters and the general premise, and that there were actual adults around disciplining the kids when it was needed (something badly missing from YA) but in a caring, loving way. The parental units in this series (that, ironically, were no one's parents) was honestly my favorite thing about the series. It did get big on teen drama, but ah well. I did really like the ending to the series, it tied things up nicely, but left some room for imagination. I'd say a 3.5-4 star series overall.
I also finished
and this had such beautiful illustrations! Well worth the read.
I've started
which I've been wanting to read for awhile. I like it so far, really interesting premise, although anything with girls as wife/slaves gives me an icky feeling. I love the MC, though, and the world, so hanging in there. I've very interested to see what the author will do with this premise.
Also started
which I've been wanting to read for SO LONG. So far, loving it!
Also started this amazing book Karen gave me
Which shows you fun adventures to do every day of the year. It goes through them in calendar order, so I'm reading each day of the year. Or that's the plan, anyways. So, it will take me all year to read it LOL!
Jan 1st--Go to the Junkaroo Festival/Parade in Nassau, Bahamas (in case you were wondering)
And I will be starting
to read with my OwlCrate book club.
Whew, a lot of books to start the New Year with!
I read the 2 short stories:

So glad you're loving Armada and the adventure book!! :-D I really enjoyed Armada, although I didn't think it was as good as Ready Player One. But then, how would he be able to top RPO?! ;P

Just finished
, solid 4 star read! This novel definitely made a statement about war and humanity. I really loved the message to it. I also liked that the MC questioned EVERYTHING (what we all should be doing) and made up his own mind after he got all the facts. And I loved how it ended--with not everything clear cut and a little bit of gray.
Also finished
and I ended up liking it quite a bit. Some of it was way too predictable (the romance) but I loved the message and the world building, and the characters were nicely developed. So I ended up with a 4 star rating on it, mainly because I thought the ending was good, and the author was willing to make some tough choices that really served in the interest of the story.
I'm still reading
, about halfway through, and oh my goodness! This book is SO CUTE!
