The Arcana Chronicles by Kresley Cole - Reading from 'Poison Princess (The Arcana Chronicles #1)' from June 13th 2018

[Andy]

Losses mount and deadly new threats converge in this next action-packed tale of the Arcana Chronicles by #1 New York Times bestselling author Kresley Cole.

When the battle is done . . .
The Emperor unleashes hell and annihilates an army, jeopardizing the future of mankind--but Circe strikes back. The epic clash between them devastates the Arcana world and nearly kills Evie, separating her from her allies.

And all hope is lost . . .
With Aric missing and no sign that Jack and Selena escaped Richter's reach, Evie turns more and more to the darkness lurking inside her. Two Arcana emerge as game changers: one who could be her salvation, the other her worst nightmare.

Vengeance becomes everything.
To take on Richter, Evie must reunite with Death and mend their broken bond. But as she learns more about her role in the future--and her chilling past--will she become a monster like the Emperor? Or can Evie and her allies rise up from Richter's ashes, stronger than ever before?

Okay I’m on Dead of Winter!! Such an addicting series!!!

[Danii]

Chapter 3: (view spoiler)[ So I think Sol is the “inactivated” card that doesn’t get his powers until he kills another Arcana.. And that’s why Evie didn’t hear his call! Also, where the heck is Aric?! (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 21: Wow I’ve been so bad about updating it’s insane lmfao! (view spoiler)[ But seriously, Jacks alive? Really? Not happy about it, he was starting to annoy the hell out of me and I was completely fine with his death. I would rather Selena have survived. Major eye roll from me at him not actually dying, such a cop out.. But Deaths castle and all that reminds me so much of Beauty and the Beast! Not really sure why, Death reminds me of the beast and Evie reminds me of Belle. (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 24: (view spoiler)[ MATTHEW betrayed the Emperess in another game?! And WON?! What the hell! Did not see that coming.. Her grandma is poisoning her mind, just like Death said. Does she not remember all the things SHE did in the previous games? No need to judge Matthew for it, even if he does remember, because Evie has done a lot worse things. Also still mad about Jack being alive and I’m so sick of his chapters already. Why couldn’t he just stay dead?! He literally doesn’t add anything to the story except for a love interest. Evie and Aric are SOULMATES!!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 28; (view spoiler)[ I’ve been thinking.. Evie doesn’t remember her grandma ever showing her Chronicles, death didn’t know her family had them.. The writing is all spelled wrong and weird, and her Grandma just had a stroke.. I think her Grandma wrote fake chronicles to get Evie to kill everyone. And I also think her grandma killed Evies dad. Something is not right with her, and I want to know what it is. I think she’s evil, and has something up her sleeve I just don’t know what yet... (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 35: (view spoiler)[ FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY DEATH AND EVIE ARE TOGETHER!! I SWEAR TO GOD IF JACK RUINS THIS I WILL LOSE IT (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 39: (view spoiler)[ Okay now I’m scared... Did Death actually do something to kill her grandma? No, he wouldn’t, he couldn’t!!! Just when they got together, this better not end ): I’m glad Jack is staying away, thank god. He better ACTUALLY stay out of the picture. I like Aric so much more. (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Finished: (view spoiler)[ I KNEW HER GRANDMA WAS UP TO SOMETHING!!!! AND NOW EVIE IS PREGNANT BECAUSE HER GRANDMA HAD SOME TYPE OF POWER TO MESS WITH HER MIND!! HOLY GODS!!!!!! (hide spoiler)]
I NEED THE READ THE NEXT ONE RIGHT NOW OMG

[Danii]

Chapter 2: (view spoiler)[ What the hell us wrong with Evie? She’s being a straight up crazy bitch to everyone for no reason. What did he Grandma do to her?! It had to be her, she’s losing it! (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 6: (view spoiler)[ Yay, Evie said that she would stay with Aric even if Jack was alive!! That makes me so happy! :D (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 7: (view spoiler)[ HOW CAN FINN BE DEAD?! PAUL IS TJE INACTIVE CARD HOLY CRAP HES MESSING WITHE EVERHONES MINDS (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 31: (view spoiler)[ This is all so ridiculous like why is Jack around Evie again, things were going so well ugh. I hate Paul!!! And I can’t believe Evie is having a boy! I’ve been so bad about updating, it’s too addicting! I hope Circe is okay ): And I need someone to find a way to bring Finn back! Evie better just stay with Aric after this is all over because oh my god I’m so sick of Jackson (hide spoiler)]

[Danii]

Chapter 34: (view spoiler)[ SHUT UP JACKSON GO AWAY NEVER COME BACK HOLY CRAP I HATE HIM HE KEEPS RUINING HER SOULMATE I AM SO MAD (hide spoiler)]

[Gillian]

Chapter 8: (view spoiler)[ Sol's boyfriend and girlfriend are the 2 special bagmen. Oh that has to be tough (hide spoiler)]

[Gillian]

Chapter 18 (view spoiler)[ At first I was like woo hoo the grandmother is alive but omg she is evil. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ God I know, she was making me so mad!! Such an evil hearted person! (hide spoiler)]

[Heather]

How did y’all get into this? I can’t get through the first 100 pages of Poison Princess

[Gillian]

Danii wrote: "
Chapter 39: [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ The story twists and turns so much it's hard to know who to trust and who not to. I still feel Jack has to be a card or something I don't exactly know what but he hears things that can't be normal. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

Poison Princess

Up to Chapter 11 :-

(view spoiler)[ wow. Strange things are happening to Evie. I’m not even sure where to begin?! One things for sure... I hate Brandon with a passion he’s just so desperate to get laid. Even with all the stress Evie’s under. I have to admit though, I love Jackson. He’s so.. swooooon. I can’t wait to find out what’s happening with the flowers. And also the creepy scene at the beginning. I honestly can’t put this book down. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

Poison Princess

Up to Chapter 27

(view spoiler)[ Oh my god. The chemistry between these two is incredible. I just want them to get together already. I know. I’m impatient. Anyway. So the Flash has happened and it’s an apocalypse and there aren’t many survivors left. Especially if you don’t include the Slavers or Bagmen. I really didn’t think this was gonna be an apocalyptic book. Don’t ask me why so that was a surprise. I’m also worried something is going to happen to Jackson as in the first part of this book she turned up to that creeps house alone and there is no way he would let her out of his sight. He is way too protective. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

Poison Princess

Just into chapter 28:-

And goddammit Jack don’t make me hate you.

[Elizabeth Emily]

Poison Princess

Up to Chapter 30:-

(view spoiler)[ I loooooove this book. It has been so long since I’ve read a book and felt every emotion right through my body and in my stomach. Those are the best kind of books. I hate Selena and I need Jack to make things right and I need to know if they slept together! Because I refuse to believe that Jack would stoop so low. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

Poison Princess

Chapter 39:-

(view spoiler)[ this girl is driving me insane! What more does he have to do for you to trust him. Urgh! He loves her. Like really loves her and she can’t even tell him a small part of what’s happening. No wonder he’s mad. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

Poison Princess

Finished :-

(view spoiler)[ I am utterly heartbroken. How could he do that to her? I needed them to end up together. I need to start the next book. Now. (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 6 (view spoiler)[ I love Matthew-he's so cute and sweet. You know like minus the crazy part. I totally forgot they had Finn with them. I wonder if Evie and Jackson will be able to resolve their differences. Selena is okay, but I don't trust her. I'm glad Finn was the fake Jackson that kissed Selena. And Evie taking down the tower, archangel and tempest was freaking great. Like dang girl you're freaking powerful. I really hope Evie's gram is alive and can help. (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 14 (view spoiler)[ Well damn it's sexy time for Jackson and Evie. And I am a fan lmao. I wonder if cards having the same sign really means anything? I think I could ship Finn and Lark--if Lark is truly on their side. I really hope things don't go south in this battle, but they probably will. I also need a list of the Arcana to reference lol (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

holy poop. I'm behind lol

[Andy]

Alaina wrote: "holy poop. I'm behind lol"

Yeah you are lol

[Andy]

Ch. 26 (view spoiler)[ Well fuck Evie has been taken by death and fucking Lark is a two faced betrayer! I wish Evie's plan had worked, she was so damn badass. And then she freaking jumps off a bridge!! How the hell did Death revive her. AND MATTHEW AND JACK AREN'T DEAD I KNEW THEY COULDN'T BE! (hide spoiler)]

Ch. 41 (view spoiler)[ SHE WAS HIS WIFE SHE WAS DEATHS WIFE AND HIS NAME IS ARIK OMFG I AM JUST SCREAMING RN LIKE WTF DO I DO NOW WHO DO I SHIP WHAT ARE THEY GONNA DO (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Finished (view spoiler)[ well fuck that ending has left me very confused on where to stand with my ships. I hope Evie can rescue Jackson and talk to him before deciding who she wants. I love Aric, but I wasn't a fan of how he was talking about Evie at the end of this book. She is NOT property and he cannot treat her like that. Damn, I love Lark, I hope she and Evie can be real allies after facing down Ogen. Glad the devil is dead ugh. (hide spoiler)]


Ch. 12 (view spoiler)[ Okay how did Evie get away from Aric!? WHat did she do to him!? I really want Finn and Lark to be together. Pleaseeeeee. The twins are fucking disgusting and pyschopathic. I can't believe they used to work for Evie! Jackson needs to be saved now before his eyes are taken!!! And the Priestess, idk what to think about her (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 25 (view spoiler)[ Evie using Tess to go back in time to save Jack's eyes was genius and I loved that whole rescue mission. Mad that Selena was taken, but it's amazing seeing so many Arcana working together. I'm glad Evie managed to get Jack and Death to go rescue Selena with her. I still think Jack is hiding things from Evie. AND THE FREAKING TWINS CAN CLONE THEMSELVES HOLY HELL (hide spoiler)]

Ch. 29 (view spoiler)[ I'm really starting to not like Jack. What he's said is rubbing me the wrong way and I don't like how he wants to protect Evie at all costs. This is too much of a tamlin vibe. Still angry Aric tried to coerce Evie. Hopefully he won't ever do that again. I do like that he's being completely honest about what he's done, but I hate the love triangle it's being dragged on way too long and is getting annoying. (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 41 (view spoiler)[I'm so glad they saved Selena!! I missed that girl. She's fucking awesome. And it seems like Jack and Aric are actually becoming friends?? I am so here for that!!! Glad the twins and stupid Milo are dead. I wonder what Aric will learn from their chronicles. (hide spoiler)]

Finished (view spoiler)[ FUCK EVIE WHY ARE YOU SO GODDAMN STUPID I HATE YOU FOR PICKING JACKSON ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME UGHHH I AM SO MAD. I kinda hope Jackson was killed in the Emperor's attack, then Evie can't make deluded choices involving him, but I really hope Selena isn't dead! (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 7 (view spoiler)[ I'm getting really annoyed with how much Evie freaking goes on about how she's going to change time and shit. I don't think Tess has that much power and Evie is just deluded. I don't think Jackson is dead either. And I really hope Selena is not. Sol is weird, but I actually like him XD I hope Aric is okay wherever he is... (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 16 (view spoiler)[ Fuck Sol; what a damn dick. And I hate Zara and the Emperor! I hope Evie takes them all down. I'm so glad Lark and Aric found her. She needs to heal!! And she has her gran now!! Maybe things aren't so bad?? (hide spoiler)]

Ch. 24 (view spoiler)[ I fucking hate Evie's gran. She's such a hateful bitch and I hope she doesn't turn Evie against her friends. JACKSON IS ALIVE I WAS RIGHT DAMMIT. I hope everything will go right at this point. I can't deal with more heartache. AND I NEED ARIC AND EVIE TO BE END GAME UGH IM SO FRUSTRATED (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Ch. 32 (view spoiler)[ THANK GOD FOR CIRCE!! I think she might have gotten some sense into Evie's head finally. This girl is so damn THICK I SWEAR!! I hope Jackson can give Evie up. I wonder if he's going to be the unactivated card. I feel like he has to. Evie's gran needs to die and stop trying to make Evie evil. Girl has enough problems! I'm worried about Matthew and what he's playing at. It's good he's blocking the Emperor and everything but what is Matthew's end goal?? What's he trying to do? First he pushes Evie towards Death and now he's possibly bringing Jackson back?? (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

Endless Knight

Up to Chapter 10:-

(view spoiler)[ These books have drawn me in hook line and sinker. I can’t keep myself away from them. Even though I’m trying to go slow as we don’t know when the last books out yet. I love Jack and I can’t help but sympathise. But at the same time Evie’s also going through a lot and it’s hard on her too. So far I’m loving the band of misfits that we have from the mischievous Finn, crazy Matthew, Gorgeous Jack, Doubt bringer Selena and Empress Evie. Can’t wait to get on with this book. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

@Andrea.. you are crazy fast!..

[Alaina]

25%: (view spoiler)[I really like this book so far. Evie is completely lovable and so is Jackson. Yep, shipping the fuck out of them. The hallucinations are interesting. I'm also wondering what's going to happen when she talks to her grandma again. Also, not really a fan of her and her boyfriend being together. Nope, Jackson all the way guys! (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

50%: (view spoiler)[omg, no, her mom died!! I feel so bad for Evie right now. (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]

Finished (view spoiler)[ EVIE IS PREGNANT WTF!!?!?! hOW? I need answers!!! Okay but here's my theory: Matthew gave her the memory of talking to Paul about the birth control. He has some kind of end game and I guess it involves Evie and Aric's child?? Anyway I need to know, I hope we find out soon! I'm glad they have Finn, Joules and Gabriel back and that Sol is actually on their side. Now they just need to take out Zara and Rictor (hide spoiler)]

[Andy]
