Nicely done Miche! 😊

[Laura]

I was having Burn for Me on my TBR. It's not that good?

[Miche]

Than you, Laura!

I liked it, but the writing felt a bit off for me. I could tell that two people wrote this book. The technical machine and guns descriptions to cheesy romance lines felt disconnected.

The Sea of Monsters - completed. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Titan's Curse - completed. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Battle of the Labyrinth - completed. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

[Laura]

Wow Miche! You are also kicking butt at this chalenge! 😀

And I love it that you go on with one series one book after another. I used to do the same but since I joined GR it sort of went to one book a month which is not that good at times. I'm planning to remedy that also and start reading series like this.

And regarding that book, after your info I think I'll leave it for a lot lot later. I'm reading Midnight's Daughter now by Karen Chance and it feels disconnected the same way - only in this case between cheesy romance and tons of fight scenes. From fighting in blind rage to searing passionate kisses and desire the next moment. It just doesn't feel that right for me. Or maybe I've become to old for this kind of reads! :D

I used to read one book right after another in a series too. I'm not sure what happened, but now I rarely do that. I wish I could get back to doing that, then I wouldn't have so many unfinished series.

I normally read series like this, unless if I comitted to buddy reads. I get a better momentum if I keep them in a row. When I take breaks I loose interest very easily.

that's awesome!! (view spoiler)[this is as far as I read and I really loved the witches and the dragons, I thought that added a really cool angle to the story. However, the irrational decision making of the main character drove me crazy! It's like her actions don't match up with her thought processes. It bothered me in other series by this author too. (hide spoiler)]

I decided to ignore (view spoiler)[her irrational decisions and just enjoy Rowan. ;) (hide spoiler)]

good call. :) That must be the key I was missing lol.

[Miche]

It made the book much more fun to read. Lets call it guilty pleasure, lol. It is full of issues but I truly enjoyed it. :)

No guilt required - I think i'm just an old lady when it comes to the fun of this series. When I relax a little i'll try it again lol.
