LOVE Sarah J Maas! Still have to read Court of Wings and Ruin.

[Mika Michelle]

I finished which I absolutely LOVED!!!! 5/5.... I normally don’t like romance books like that, but I was surprisingly invested and loved the storyline. This reading romance for Feb worked out..lol..
Next I read 2/5.... This book was so not for me. It bored me out of my mind. I finished it for a book club meeeting tomorrow.

Now its time to finish out Feb with , , , , and .

[Jenny]

I also loved It Ends with Us! So glad you're enjoying your romance reads, I am too for the most part!

[Mika Michelle]

It was an awesome suggestion. I’m glad because I realized I like the romance genre. I will have to start incorporating some into my monthly readings. Thank you for that

[Jenny]

You're very welcome :)

Glad you liked It Ends With Us.. For me it was just meh But I started with her first standalone Which I still think is her best work yet! and then her two best books to date for me. Colleen use to be a Social Worker and these two books are on the darker shady part of life but for me thats what made them so good.

was a cute story but also touched on some real issues. 4/5 from me

Oooh now I'm intrigued ... maybe I will pick it up

[Victoria]

I finished and enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. I just hate when I start a trilogy so early on and have to wait for each new one... Now I am reading and although it is a bit strange and slow, and nothing like what I expected, I have found myself getting drawn in and I think I like it, not completely sold on it, but getting there...haha

[Sara]

and loving it!

[Mika Michelle]

Finished: 3/5, and 3/5. Both books were good and hit on serious issues but they just weren't for me.

I'm reading and so far I'm not liking it. it's boring me.

Sadly I didnt end up loving It was nothing at all like I was expecting !! First book from Maggie I didnt love or really like.

I felt the same way about those two books. Dimple and Rishi was a cute couple that made me smile when I needed it!

[Laura]

Reading About 1/2 through and I must say Im really enjoying it !!

Why this book got so much crap on being racist and so on and on and on Is just dumb! People are bringing to much real World issues into a fantasy world where it dont belong! To say this book was racist/feminist/degrading/ homophobic and any other phobics is BS!! To say all this would to say it about ANY fantasy book out there .

Its a bit Harry Potter -Ish kinda not really but does take place at a Magic boarding school and there are many different "races" rather Fae , Demon , Werewolf, Ogre and so on with different kinds of magic but not everyone has magic.

I totally agree. Yeah the book deals with social issues but not in an offensive way. And if all books were totally 100% PC with no character being offensive or having any flaws then reading would be heck of boring. I feel bad for the author. It feels like she got targeted for no good reason. And I'm generally considered pretty liberal.

[Sana]

Finished and last book of Crescent Chronicles.

Also read loved them!!

I'm nearly done with and it's killing me!! I'm not sure I want to read the end.

I have to be in the mood for me to enjoy romance.

[Sylvia]

Hey everyone, hope you are all doing well...I've been reading a lot of non-fiction at the moment and it may be like that for some time as I am starting my university degree this year online...eeeppppp it's going to be full on and just another crazy thing to add to my already busy life but I'm hoping it will be most rewarding. So right now I'm still reading - textbooks are always fun lol

Sana wrote: "Finished and last book of Crescent Chronicles.

is so good. The end really does make sense. But I have no idea how Cole is going to pull off the end end in the last book. Usually I know who I like best in a love triangle, but in this series I love them both!!!

[Teresa]

I finished today. It's sort of hard for me to decide what I thought about it. As a person who grew up in a house with a father who frightened her and a mother who did nothing to help, it brought back tons of emotions. I need to read something happy next.

I dunno but Im sure its going to be something BIG!! And I agree I love this love triangle which I usually hate in a book but I really like both of the guys!

I totally connected with the story & characters. Touches close to home and I still found to be a great story! I gave it 5 stars

[Phoenix2]

Getting started on and so far I'm loving it, though the disappointing reviews kind of make me skeptical about it....

Sometimes it’s best to stay clear of those reviews.

[Jenny]

I recently finished:

and I think this is my favorite of the series so far. 4 stars

which was such a sweet short story! 4 stars

3.5 stars. I liked the conclusion to this one

Next I'm reading and rereading

I'm very excited for the movie!

I thought it was good. I have learned not to read reviews until after I am done so that I am not influenced by other people's opinions. I tend to like things others don't and not like the ones that everyone else is raving about :D

It was good, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. Worth the read.

[Victoria]

Laura wrote: "Victoria wrote: "I finished and enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. I just hate when I start a trilogy so early on and have to wait for each new on..."

yep, I finished it and I am on the fence. I gave it 4 stars ( really a 3 and a half) because I found myself getting into it, but then there were parts that just aggravated me, and it was so slow. I like her writing style and her descriptions and that part was there, but the actual story line fell kind of flat. I just don't know how I feel about it quite yet.. definitely not my favorite by her.

[Kateb]

just finished Samantha Young's fire spirit series ands tarted the Warriors of ankh

very good so far

I need to read this one but I’m so apprehensive. Like you, I love both guys!

[Tracy]

I really enjoyed this one Phoenix. I don’t care to read reviews until I’m finished with the book because I don’t want the outside influence.

I wish I had time to reread. There are so many I need to read I don’t have time to reread any.

Good to know Victoria. I hope to get it from the library soon.

Thanks Tracey. I started yesterday and it's a little daunting trying to navigate online study. You pretty much have to figure things out on your own but once we get a few lectures and group collaborative info sessions in it will go a lot smoothly.

I just haven't read that much this last week!

I did finished solid 4 star read, so cute! And a great book about fandoms in general :)

Also finished my reread of 5 stars, I just adore this story (the whole quintet is awesome, it gets so much better with each book!)

Haven't started anything new yet, but I'm doing another readathon this weekend. I hope to work some more on and also hoping to read
