I've loved the whole series, but I'm actually not really getting into this one as much? I don't know. I'm only 30% in, so I'm hoping I'll be pulled into the story as I get closer to the end!

@Raynbow - I've heard really good things about that book!

@Janor - No worries. :) If you're looking for inspiration, you could check out the buddy reads that are planned for January!

Janor | 524 comments @Klancy Good idea! I just asked to join Ink and Bone (The Great Library, #1) by Rachel Caine on the 11th :)
My exams start next week and last until the 22nd, but hopefully I'll be able to read some more books after that!

Raynbow | 16 comments Klancy, it was pretty good! (If you’re talking about Wolf by Wolf) It was little slow at first, and I felt it could’ve been cut down a bit... but overall, a good read.

I’m reading Ruined (Ruined, #1) by Amy Tintera now!

Klancy Hoover-Davis | 1333 comments @Janor - Good luck with your exams!!

@Raynbow - Ohhh, you'll have to let me know what you think of Ruined (Ruined, #1) by Amy Tintera ! It's been on my TBR list for so long

Also, update on the book I'm currently reading: I'm 86% done! So I definitely plan on finishing sometime tonight

✦ Maica ✦ (maicacruz) | 687 comments So sorry I haven't been finishing any books. School has kept me busy but I'll finish Scythe (Arc of a Scythe, #1) by Neal Shusterman by the end of this week! :)

@Janor, hi no problem! Welcome to the team! :) Here are the books I plan to finish this January feel free to join me if you'd like
Scythe (Arc of a Scythe, #1) by Neal Shusterman We Are Okay by Nina LaCour The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black Bad Mommy by Tarryn Fisher

@Klancy - If you end up liking the third book I might pick it up by February :D

Klancy Hoover-Davis | 1333 comments @Maica - I highly, highly, highly recommend The Adjustment (The Program, #5) by Suzanne Young ! It's weird because the book is the 5th one in the series, but in relation to the timeline of when all the other books take place it's the 3rd one.

Also, great job guys!! We have 51 points right now, and I believe that we're in the lead for the fun team category! :) I'm starting The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater tonight for a buddy read

Ariel (taylortheteacher) | 876 comments Hi Ladies,

Just wanted to update you guys! Thank god the weekend is here and it's a long one for me (I'm a high school teacher). These are some of the books I will be working on over the weekend and for the rest of the month. I am trying to see how much I can read and it'll help me gauge whether I am ready for a serious or medium team. I probably won't finish all of these because that's a little intense lol

The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer (Mara Dyer, #1) by Michelle Hodkin Emmy & Oliver by Robin Benway Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1) by Kendare Blake Forest of a Thousand Lanterns (Rise of the Empress, #1) by Julie C. Dao The Shadow Queen (Ravenspire, #1) by C.J. Redwine Sleeping Giants (Themis Files, #1) by Sylvain Neuvel The Beginning of Everything by Robyn Schneider The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon This Savage Song (Monsters of Verity, #1) by Victoria Schwab

I’ll definitely let you know what I think about Ruined! So far, it’s nothing to write home about, but I’m hoping it’ll get better!

@Klancy - I thought it was the third one! xD Well I guess I have to read the third others before reading that one hopefully I'll love it as much as you did! :)

Janor | 524 comments @Klancy - I saw it a little late, but thank you!

@Maica Did you enjoy Scythe? I was planning to maybe read it this year.. :)


message 62: by ✦ Maica ✦ (new)

✦ Maica ✦ (maicacruz) | 687 comments @Janor - I LOOOOVED IT. Everything was really unique!


message 63: by Klancy (new)

Klancy Hoover-Davis | 1333 comments @Maica - I know, it's weird xD But Scythe looks so good!! Since you and a lot of other people have really liked it, I'm thinking about picking it up

Also, update: I'm 75% done with The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater . I should finish it either tonight or tomorrow sometime!

Lisa | 1950 comments @Maica Cruz: if you liked "Scythe", you should try "The Crowns Game"! i think you would like it too. ☺

@Klancy - you should! It's an awesome book. I recommend reading it without knowing much about the world. Discovering and understanding the rules of the world they lived in was the best part of the story for me :)

@Lisa - I've heard of that book before. If that's the case then I'll try to pick it up during Feb :D


message 66: by Klancy (last edited Jan 13, 2018 04:04PM) (new)

Klancy Hoover-Davis | 1333 comments @Maica - I'll definitely check it out then! :)

Awesome!! Keep up the good work, guys! :)

@Maica - The second book for Scythe is out!? I really need to catch up! So many books to read xD

I think I actually have more than 60 books on my shelf right now that I haven't read. I think I need to put myself on a book buying ban lol

Same! And now so many books I want are coming out this year! Is there anything coming out in 2018 that you're excited to read? :)

Also, I'm only about 28% into Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1) by Kendare Blake . Tomorrow is my last day before school starts for the week, so I plan on dedicating the day to reading!

Klancy Hoover-Davis | 1333 comments I'm also excited for The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black !

Jae-Jones Legendary (Caraval, #2) by Stephanie Garber Immortal Reign (Falling Kingdoms, #6) by Morgan Rhodes The Complication (The Program, #6) by Suzanne Young

Did you like the book you finished? :) So far Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1) by Kendare Blake is a little iffy for me


message 76: by ✦ Maica ✦ (last edited Jan 15, 2018 09:30PM) (new)

✦ Maica ✦ (maicacruz) | 687 comments @Klancy - Same! It's one of my most anticipated reads of 2018. I already have the ebook but I don't want to read it during school days

It was okay. I might even continue on with the series but it's definitely a guilty pleasure read xD

Hopefully Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1) by Kendare Blake gets better. A friend of mine is currently reading it and she said it got better towards the end :)

✦ Maica ✦ (maicacruz) | 687 comments Finished The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black I know I said I didn't want to readduring school days but once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down.


message 78: by Klancy (new)

Klancy Hoover-Davis | 1333 comments Wow, sorry it took me so long to finish Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1) by Kendare Blake , guys. The book never really picked up for me lol.

But I'm starting Song of the Current (Song of the Current #1) by Sarah Tolcser now!

That's too bad. Hopefully the second book will be better if you ever decide on picking it up :)
