A Court of Frost and Starlight ~ Buddy Read ~ 5/1/18

[Grey]

Squee, it's almost here. Roll call!!! Who all is joining us?

[Ela]

JUMPING UP AND DOWN SQUEEING LIKE A LOON MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[Ela]

OK my fellow peeps! I started re-reading for the 3rd time ACOWAR, so does everyone know/remember what happened? I still had a few questions or maybe just need refreshers: I could've sworn I read that one of the human queens went into the Cauldron and cam out old...

What is everyone's favorite parts?

[Tessa]

ME!!!

(view spoiler)[ My favorite is at the end during the fight when Tamlin was shown not to be a douche and there's a bit of hope that he'll have an HEA. (hide spoiler)]

[Jean]

I'm in too.... just waiting for it to hit my kindle!

[Ela]

I'm already disappointed with the length of this book it's like 1/4 of ACOWAR!

[Grey]

I swear to God, I preordered this. Where is it????

[Lisa]

It's a novella, isn't it? But it's still like 225 pages, which is super long for a novella...I'd expect nothing less from SJM!!!

[Jean]

I was surprised at the length too. Started this morning and only about 10% in.......stupid work.....

[Ela]

DUDE! THIS NOVELLA IS 8.21 US SO YES, I WAS EXPECTING LONGER!

ROFL Right? Still, I'm happy with it. I wouldn't want to wait for the library to have it. It'd take months before I got to read it due to holds.

ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY!

[Jean]

It was expensive but I HAD to have it for my collection!

[Grey]

I still wanna know what happened. I swear to Keebler (OK, autocorrect, wtaf 😂🤣😂) I already bought this damn book. Now I have to go buy another frigging amazon card.

[Kooloo]

LOFLMAO 😝

[Kooloo]

Grey you rock my world babe

[Tessa]

So, I liked it. I almost feel as though it should have been released in December. :) Very Christmasy. That said, I did see how she set up for the next books, and I'm happy with who gets the next book. :D

[Jean]

I can't believe you are finished already Tessa! This is why I'm so bad at BRs. I can never keep up.

I am bad at them because I finish too soon and forget to comment until I'm done.

[Ela]

I'm taking my sweet ass time with this one!

[Jean]

I'm having trouble focusing. I didn't get to read last night, but find myself re-reading paragraphs constantly.

[Ela]

I just went back to ACOWAR

[Grey]

OK, I went back to ACOWAR too much I didnt remember...

[Ela]

EXACTLY...I started Frost and Starlight and I'm like what who when where why...that's it going back and not ruining this book for myself BECAUSE I MUST LOVE IT!

[Jean]

I don't need the refresher, but I'm still only at 26%. I have had a really busy week so that could be the problem. But it seems a little slow going in the beginning. My hopes are high that things will pick up!

[Ela]

I totally forgot Lucien is Hellion's son!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jean]

I love the bond between Feyre and Rhys..... it just makes me feel good.

Should i be feeling sorry for Tamlin...... I'm only at 50% and headed out to dinner. My reading time this week has sucked!

[Grey]

nope. I never feel sorry for tamlin (*giggle* autocorrect tried to.make that tampon) I'm at 53% of acowar... no reading time for me this week either, but this weekend my daughter has a huge dance competition, so I should have a ton of downtime between dances to read.

[Jean]

Ok, so I finally finished....took me all week. I struggled. But I do love their world and I am definitely attracted to certain characters of course.....Rhys, Cassian, Lucien..... and I know you'll probably all want to kill me, but yes, I felt bad for Tamlin.

Now, I'm seriously looking forward to the next book and loved getting that sneak peek!!!! Does anyone know how long we have to wait for it?

[Ela]

Loved it too and yes I too felt bad for Tamlin...

[Jean]

Oh good Ela, I'm glad I'm not the only one.

[Tessa]

I do feel bad for Tamlin. Read my spoiler from earlier. :)

[Jean]

I just read it. Yes!

[Tessa]

See! I'm not totally heartless. :)

[Grey]

OK. so im really just starting this book. I lost my kindle this weekend. my tablet, my regular kindle... you know, the one which has eleventy billion books on it. 😭😭😭😭😭. I'm very sad.

[Jean]

Oh no Grey! Did you find it? I would be crying too!

[Grey]

Nope. it's gone. think someone must have... "accidentally" picked it up at the dance competition this weekend. I'm crushed , but... it was just my galaxy tablet. I can replace it. *sniffle* FML. as if this weekend wasnt expensive enough, you know? ugh.

[Lisa]

But, but, but...that's like your lifeline, your security blanket, your talisman against the bookocalypse. I'mma find who has it and Hulk Smash them!!!!

[Grey]

Yep. Now I am gonna have to do the sign in and out thing thru my phone and my amazon accounts and changing all my damn passwords. I legit went thru the 5 stages of grief over it too. Now I'm just kind of waffling thru them all depending on what minute you ask me about it.

[Nay]

Ohhh, Grey, I'm SO sorry! That sucks balls!!!

[Donna]

Can’t wait to read this ! Ahhhhh

[Grey]

OMG!!! I just got a call from the security office at the theater where they held the competition this weekend... they found it!!!!! they found my beloved tablet!! 😍😍😍😍

[Jean]

That's awesome Grey! I was wondering if anyone would find it and do the right thing!

[Donna]

Awesome Grey !

[Lisa]

I'm so happy for your Grey....I would be so beyond consolable if that happened to me!!!

[Tessa]

That's great, Grey! Beyond great. *throws glitter confetti and tons of chocolate* This deserves more than just glitter.

[Nay]

So happy for you, Grey!

I know that's got to be a relief! I lost an envelope with $400 in it about 8 months ago, and although I live in a town where many people would turn it in, unfortunately, whoever found it wasn't one of those people.

[Melinda]

Grey, you poor thing. I think I would have been hyperventilating thinking that I lost my beloved kindle. I take it every where with me.

Buy a Tatts ticket. Your so lucky. 💕

[Ela]

GREY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS SO FRICKING AWESOME!
