I might check them out. I'm a mood reader so I do tend to read all over the place from one genre to another.

Mod
and now I’m on to
. I’m enjoying Kenyon at the moment.

You get a 30 day free trial after that its 9.99 there are tons of books to read on KU and a lot of them have free Audio.
3.5/5 Was better than I hoped for and 3.5 is because the Narrator was male and the POV is mostly Female and he sucked at it!! I kept imagining her as this big muscly 6f oot something female lol

Now if the audio Narrator would have been Female I probably would have enjoyed it much more.
Tracy wrote: "Laura wrote: " 3.5/5 Was better than I hoped for and 3.5 is because the Narrator was male and the POV is mostly Female and he sucked at it!! I kept imagining her as this..."Thats for sure! I have DNF or skipped a book because the Narrator just didnt work for me!
Finished
Gave them all two stars.
is the third Abbi Glines I didn't like. Dnf'd
I love Thea Harrison's Elder Races.
enjoyed reading them. I'm going to reread
because the next book is about Dragos and I want to refresh my memory before starting
Also read
another spin chilling crime thriller by Chris Carter. And
by my favorite author Molly Harper

I agree about Abbi Glines books they have gotten really terrible ! I agree with a reviewer also that it feels like Abbi dont even care about her work.
I love Molly Harper and that is a great book !! I am also reading a book by Molly next
I hope the Elder Races are good I recently added them to my TBR !

Gaines writing is too sweet for me but I don’t feel the writing is bad. However I haven’t read anything by her in a while.
Mod
and I’m now listening to
. Inferno was good and so is qfG so far
Tracy wrote: "Laura wrote: "Sana wrote: "Finished Gave them all two stars.[bookcover:As..."
There is nothing sweet about her books they are dull , boring and the same story over and over but they gotten worse and worse even her biggest fans are having a hard time justifying giving a book more than 2 stars.
Mod
A Wind in the Door
"I’m about to start
Carol. Are you enjoying A Wind in the Door?
Mod
Gave them all two stars...."
Didn’t she have a really good series at one time? Something about beaches? I didn’t read it but I remember everyone going Gaga over it.
Tracy wrote: "Laura wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Laura wrote: "Sana wrote: "Finished Gave them al..."Yes her Sea Breeze series was decent a hit and miss kinda series for me. But her Rosemary Beach series was a bigger hit those were also hit and miss for me too.
She has Boys South of the Mason Dixon was sooo childish i hated all the characters had they been a bit more mature this story would have been good.
She also has Until Friday Night Field Part series which I think is great! The childish behavior fits since it is YA series
But everything else she has written as standalone or NA series have been just crap! Her characters have become so immature and the stories flat ... I have read everyone of her books to date and I ca honestly say she is losing Fans because the stories have become so basic and characters highly immature.
Tracy wrote: "Carol wrote: "A Wind in the Door, by Madeleine L'EngleA Wind in the Door

- least favourite book in the series and I finished this amazing duet
in 2 days. If you haven't read this story by Jewel E. Ann than I highly recommend you do. Go into it with an open mind though and hopefully you will be hooked, just like I was.
I just finished reading

Mod
and though it’s not Night Huntress it’s pretty good.

2/5 Was a bit to immature for me
1/5was good right u to the end would have been a solid 4 stars but that ending ruined it all!
DNF Not sure why i couldnt get into this one. Its my kinda book but I just couldnt care about what was hapening ...
2/5 was ok but very predictable does have a good twist right at the end tho!
3/5a few good short stories that tie in and also give you insight into a lot of Characters in her other books and The Hollows where just about all of her books are based.
3/5was decent but reminded me a lot of Shatter Me ...

It was so much like Significance by Shelly Crane although I liked the first book in this series the more I read the more I didnt like them. I honestly made myself finish them so I didnt want to go through that again with this series.

Did you like it Laura? I’m listening to it and I think it has the same narrator as Night Huntress which makes me think I’m in that story sometimes. I loved that series and hope to reread it some day.

Dark but not really? Like, you have fae and some really terrible things happen to the characters and are done by them but it's also a lovely romance and has a lot of hope and love in it so :)

Mercedes M. Yardley She is new to me ! Her stuff started coming up for me as recommended for Horror/Gothic
. She mostly has short stories or Novellas The book I read was about 5 hours and are all short stories that tie into each other so it reads like a book. I thought it was pretty good. IF you have Kindle Unlimited the audio is free to listen and it was pretty great!
