Finished! UGH! I love Warner and Juliette so much.[spoilers removed]"
I know!! His nickname for her is freaking adorable

[Felicia]

Yes. I just can't. I love him. So. Damn. Much.

I need me a Warner. Lol.

[Aly]

I'm starting Restore Me tomorrow! I have the audio

[Felicia]

Ugh! Lol. I’ll start Ignite Me soon.

[Aly]

25% (view spoiler)[ Warner and Juliette really need to talk and be on the same page. She needs help understanding how to be a leader and deal with all the politics. I'm glad Warner and Adam talked (hide spoiler)]
50% (view spoiler)[ I can't believe Castle or Warner haven't told Juliette who she really is. Come on people! She needs to know (hide spoiler)]
75% (view spoiler)[ Warner is really fucking this up lol. And poor Juliette is just getting hit with all this crap at once. Glad she has Nazera (spelling?) on her side at least. (hide spoiler)]
finished (view spoiler)[ That ending!!! So many things are crazy and I need to know what's going on. I wonder about Juliette's sister and I hope that Warner and Kenji are okay (hide spoiler)]

[Lexi]

Chapter 2:(view spoiler)[It's odd reading about Delalieu here and seeing him as so weak and snively while knowing (from already having read books 2 and 3) that he's actually Warner's grandfather! Just would have never guessed. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 4:(view spoiler)[I am so glad I read books 2 and 3 already because this novella ruins the whole "it was just a simulation" shocker. Why?! That reveal was so important for me, so having it just kind of introduced here is a bit anti-climatic... (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 12:(view spoiler)[Reading these parts of Juliette's journal gives me goosebumps. And then Warner's response! This really helps me with the whole "insta love" part of the series that I was struggling with. Warner actually gets to know Juliette's deepest and darkest self through her journal. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 14:(view spoiler)[Poor Warner!! He has an opportunity to both get rid of a terrible person (Fletcher) and save a family while still upholding his a-hole person, but his father intervenes and makes the entire process for nothing. Wow. No wonder he's so messed up. (hide spoiler)]
Finished: (view spoiler)[Loved getting into Warner's POV and filling in so many gaps! (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

I'm going to read Kenji's book soon! I love him

[Felicia]

Ignite me

Chapter 1-16(view spoiler)[ugh. I love Warner. And I fucking love Kenji. Him and Juliette bickering is the best thing I’ve ever read. 😂😂 (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 17-28(view spoiler)[WARNER IS BAE! Seriously. I can’t even deal. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 29-57(view spoiler)[yasssssssss. They got it in! 😍😍😍

I effing love this series so much. (hide spoiler)]

Finished(view spoiler)[man, am I happy Mafi decided to write more books. Because when I first read these I’d have said this was a good ending. But knowing there are more books this definitely doesn’t feel like the end.

It was so good. And I still love these characters. So damn much. (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

YAY!!

[Felicia]

I KNOW! I can't wait to get through Restore Me so I can read Kenji's novella! I want it so bad! LOL.

[Aly]

I need to read it but I'm behind on buddy reads. agh

[Felicia]

I'm behind as well. I have seven audios and only six days until the end of the month. Lol.

[Aly]

are you buddy reading Mack Daddy? It looks good and it's narrated by my audible BF

[Felicia]

Aly wrote: "are you buddy reading Mack Daddy? It looks good and it's narrated by my audible BF"

YES! With Alaina. :D Whose the narrator?! My audible BF would have to be Sebastian York. His voice is so swoon worthy. Lmfao.

[Aly]

Yep it's him!

[Aly]

I'll start it when I finish Mirage

[Felicia]

OMG! YES!

[Felicia]

LOOK AT THIS BEAUTY ALY! Another Kenji novella! <3

[Aly]

I love it!!

[Felicia]

I swear I'm going to start (and hopefully finish) Restore Me today. Lol. I haven't read a thing since last Thursday. -.-

[Aly]

Well, hopefully you had more fun things to do! I am planning on reading Defy Me and Kenji's first novella soon, ugh. I keep getting these audios from the library so I have to listen to them before they expire. I need to stop requesting them ha

[Felicia]

Hahaha! I have the next ones on audible. They're always there. Lol. So no hurry. I'm listening to Restore Me now. I started on lunch. I'm up to chapter 7.

And I effing love Kenji. I cannot wait to get to his novella. I have to buy that though.

[Felicia]

So the narrator of the audio doesn't actually say the chapter. So I'm hoping the app saying the chapter is correct.

So chapter 20 (view spoiler)[I just feel so terrible for Warner. The poor guy is just so emotionally inept. And the whole beginning of this book just made me hurt for him. (hide spoiler)]

The app says chapter 29 but this spoiler is from a few chapters ago. (view spoiler)[My heart literally breaks when Juliette and Warner break up. Ugh. My poor little cinnamon roll Warner. (hide spoiler)]

I know!!!

[Felicia]

Finished! (view spoiler)[UGH! So much shit breaking loose it was INSANE! OMG!

It still is crazy to me that her parents were the Commanders from Oceana! Like TF! Lol.

And they were just okay giving their kids away. What the actual fuck. And there other daughter is just getting tortured and THEY DON'T CARE! Nice parents they are.

I need to get right to Kenji's novella. Because I need to know WTF is going on with everyone else! (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

Yes the ending!!! Kills me haha

[Felicia]

And Warner! My heart just breaks for him.

[Felicia]

25%(view spoiler)[UGH! Kenji is so damn adorable. I can’t. He’s getting flabbergasted over a girl! KENJI! Like what?! 😂😂 (hide spoiler)]

[Felicia]

66%(view spoiler)[WAH! Kenji and Juliette are the perfect best friends. Like seriously. (hide spoiler)]

[Felicia]

Finished! (view spoiler)[I was hoping for a little more! At least now I know dude isn’t dead. I thought he died after finishing restore me. (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

25% (view spoiler)[ awh I think Kenji and Nazeera would be cute together. I feel like he's always the easy going funny guy, but he's lonely too (hide spoiler)]
50% (view spoiler)[ When those kids from South America and Africa were speaking other languages and Warner joined them, I felt bad for Juliette. I'm glad Kenji has her back and thinks she looks badass with her short hair (hide spoiler)]
75% (view spoiler)[I'm assuming Nouria is Castle's wife? Is she bad since she sent the poison? Or helping in some way? And now there's special tattoos and healing pills and things are crazy!
(hide spoiler)]
Finished(view spoiler)[ I wonder if it was Nazeera who made Juliette disappear or someone else with powers? Now I need to read Defy Me!! (hide spoiler)]

[Felicia]

YAY!

[Felicia]

Are you using mine? Did I give you my kindle log in? I don't remember. Lol.

[Aly]

I have a Kindle copy I won from a YA Buddy Reader challenge. Hopefully tomorrow I'll start Defy Me

[Felicia]

Oh nice! That's exciting. I haven't participated in that group in forever. Lol.

I have to start Defy Me too. But since it's going to be new for me I want to read it when I can actually pay attention instead of like while I'm at work and have to keep pausing it. So maybe tomorrow?

[Aly]

chapter 8 (if audible is correct) or 24% (view spoiler)[ Crazy that all these people knew Juliette, but they had their memories erased. I love that Kenji and Nazeera got together, but sad she says they can't actually be together. Hopefully she'll change her mind (hide spoiler)]
50% (view spoiler)[ All these flashbacks are crazy. How is Anderson alive? And he's been torturing his son by having him meet Juliette over and over. I like getting all this information (hide spoiler)]
75% (view spoiler)[ Reunited! I'm just as happy for Warner to see Emma/Juliette as I am for Kenji. Their friendship is so adorable. Now they have to figure out a way to kill Anderson, ugh (hide spoiler)]
finished (view spoiler)[ I loved this so much!! Warner proposing and getting his birthday party was the best. And hopefully Nazeera and Kenji can get together and my life will be complete lol. I wish this was longer and I can't wait for the last book!! (hide spoiler)]

[Felicia]

OMFG! I need to start this. Lol. I was going to start it tonight but I've since decided to go see Avengers Endgame again tonight. :D

[Aly]

Nice! It's pretty short so I got through it in a couple hours

[Felicia]

SHORT! IT'S SHORT?! WTF!

[Aly]

Yeah it's 350 pages so like 7 hours of listening.

[Felicia]

Aly wrote: "Yeah it's 350 pages so like 7 hours of listening."

Oh. Lol. That's fine. I'll get that done in like 3.5ish? I'll listen to it tomorrow. (:

[Aly]

I saw a tweet from Tahereh that said it's the shortest in the series which is interesting because they usually get longer

[Felicia]

Aly wrote: "I saw a tweet from Tahereh that said it's the shortest in the series which is interesting because they usually get longer"

Right! Promise Me better be like 600 pages. LMFAO. I can't let these characters go again!

[Aly]

No kidding!! I need more!

[Felicia]

Hahaha. Yessssss. Me too.

[Esther]

This is my first time reading this series so I wanted to give it a try.

[Esther]

(view spoiler)[ So I am kind of stupid and finished the first book in 3 hours so now I am reading the novella. I think Warner is crazy. He is supposed to be evil, cruel, and cunning. But instead he is lovesick, kind (to Julliete), and stupid! How was I supposed to survive that torture, I don't know. (hide spoiler)]

[Esther]

That previous comment was for the 1st book.

[Esther]

Now I am reading the novella in Warner's POV. I need to know what goes on in this lunatic mind of his.
