FOREST OF RUIN by Kelley Armstrong

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

I've been wanting to read the Age of Legends series, Laura! Are you enjoying it?

[Ashley Marie]

So wait, you're saying all the same characters will be back for the Apollo book??

[Dixie]

I am rereading some of the Betsy-Tacy books; I still love them even though they were written such a long time ago. :) Betsy Was a Junior / Betsy and Joe and I finally finished The Story of a New Name , which was really, really good, but so long; I wanted to finish it so I could read some of the other books I was wanting to read. ;) there are two more books in that series, but I am going to have to wait to start them; they are long, too!

[Dixie]

Oops-I think I put the link to the Italian version of The Story if a New Name; I did not read it in Italian, LOL!

I have never heard of the Betsy-Tacy books Dixie - what are they about?

Was it because of me? Because I really did not care for the first book. :P I know a lot of people love the series, though!

[Heidi]

I think a few of my trusted GR friends like you didn't care for the first book Brigid. I am guessing that is why I skipped it.

Ha! I was going to ask whether it was because of me. I made it a little ways into book one and then DNF'd it. I was not a fan at all, although the book/series had received a lot of hype. Coincidentally, I recently met the author's agent at a book conference here in Hawaii.

[Heidi]

Yes I think you were also one of the people who warned me away David! I knew if we a few of you that I trust :)

[David]

Lol!!!!

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

I seem to be the minority in a lot of books I like, so don't go by me. I liked the first book and I'm enjoying this one even more. I know Jenny read Red Queen and liked it, not sure if she loved it though. I'm probably the worst person to ask for recommendations! Haha :p

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

I'm not as hard of a marker as most people on here. I can't help it, I just love most of what I read. If I don't like a book then it's very obvious I'm disappointed, because I'm usually not.

[Elora]

There's nothing wrong with that, Donna :)

Ditto!! I'm the same way, Donna. I just LOVE to read, just about anything! Unless a book is horrible, or just incredibly boring, I usually will like it at least a little! Some I love better than others, though.

Yes, I LOVED Red Queen. Not my fave fantasy ever, but the ENDING to that one was so awesome! Another one of my faves last year was I also ADORED

Thanks Donna! I am quite picky usually but sometimes I wish I would be like you and just love to read like you do :)

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

BRIGID: nice! I'm glad he tweeted that!

(view spoiler)[I understand what you mean about the battle. Considering the whole 5 books is about Gaia rising and then it was a 5 minute battle. I get why you're disappointed, but that's why I took away .5 stars. hahaha... (hide spoiler)]

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I'm actually really interested in An Ember in the Ashes. Will it be a trilogy?

[Laura]

such great ideas of what i can read next
thanks all

[Jenny]

I don't know. There's only 2 books on Goodreads for the series right now.

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

Jenny, yes I follow how you rate a book a lot. I find we are pretty similar in tastes. I loved too! I have and plan on reading it soon.
I feel bad giving recommendations because most people are disappointed in something I really liked. Haha.

Yes, but sometimes I feel I should be more picky! :p

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

I have no problem when people don't like a book I love or really like. I just feel bad if I recommended it. Ya know?

[[deleted user]]

Finished pretty good book.

starting now.

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

Ooh Illuminaethat's on my REALLY WANT TO READ list!!! Can't wait to see what you think!!

[Brigid ✩]

@Bluemoon - Yeah, that's pretty much the reason I didn't give it a full 5 stars either (can't remember if I gave it a 4 or a 4.5, lol). Otherwise I enjoyed the book, though; it just wasn't my favorite of the whole series.

@Donna - Omg I totally know what you mean. I don't really care if people dislike the books I like, but I do feel bad if I recommend a book to someone and they don't like it. :P

Ackkkk same here! I feel like I failed them lol. I rave about Unwind all the time and three of my friends read it in the last 3 months and gave it 2 stars :P

[Ashley Marie]

I started listening to on audio and while I'm really enjoying it, this is one instance where I feel like picking up the print book would be better for me - Fforde's world-building is so intricate and there are so many little details that I have to really focus while listening, otherwise I miss things. I'll probably wind up with it on my bookshelf at home eventually :) I read the first Thursday Next book (paperback) a few years ago and the same thing happened, I was glad to have it in my hands so I could skip back to look at something quickly if I needed to, to catch references and so forth.

I listened to the first book in his nursery rhyme series on audio and now wonder if that was why I didn't love it? Hmmm..

[Heidi]

I 100% get what you mean. If I recommend something someone doesn't like I have a two fold experience - on one hand I feel bad for the poor book I recommend (oh why or why didn't they love you too?) and on the other hand I fell bad for wasting someones time.

[Jenny]

Heidi--I never consider reading time wasted, even if its not something I liked. Reading is NEVER time wasted for me :)

[Heidi]

That is good Jenny :) I hope anyone else I have recommended books they did not love feels the same way! I tend to be pretty lucky so far that people at least seem to be ok with my recommendations - no one has really disliked one at least (that I know of???)

What? They are crazy! Lol

But I get what y'all mean, I also feel as if I recommend a book and the reader ends up not liking it.

[Jenny]

I finished my reread of and I liked this one much better the second time. Also finished a beta read I was doing.

Next I'm reading

Can't wait to hear about Salt to the Sea!

[*b*l*u*e*m*o*o*n*]

I just finished reading...


I don't know what it is about this series that I'm really enjoying, but I won't complain. They're a light fun read. literally takes me just few hours to finish!

[Heidi]

I really like that series too Bluemoon
