I am reading the "A Court of Thorns and Roses" series which is amazing. I am currently waiting on the 2nd book to arrive.
I am going to have a look at this "The Dark Artifices."

''Dark Artifices'' is better when you have more background knowledge, which you get from ''The Mortal Instruments''.
Hope that made sense,

Yeah, I'm so obsessed with it right now and I'm only on page 100. I need to catch up before I get spoiled for the 3rd book coming out soon in like two days. What is your favorite character in the series?

I remember how obsessed I was. I'm kind of jealous since you've the whole series ahead of you..your're in for a treat.
Favorite character..that is hard. It has been a while since I read the two first books, but I think it has to be Julian. I feel that I connect with him more than the other characters. His feelings run so deap and Cassandra explains them in such a beautiful way. I truly feel with him.
Who is your favorite?

I just love the book because they bring the old characters into and I love it.

Emma wrote: "Is it just me who's waiting for Cassandra Clare's new book ''Queen of air and darkness''? 4th of december...wiihii... so close now!"Love her books. That will definitely go on my pile of to-reads. Just finished H.G. Howard's ROSEBLOOD, and actually wasn't that impressed. Was very slow and too prose descriptive rather than action or emotional packed, and it took over halfway through before it got to the good stuff. Was disappointed, because it had a lot of potential.

I love how Cassandra can create new stories and characters in her original world and make them even better (my opinion :). ) than the original characters!
I'm really excited for the new book, but I have to wait like two months before I can read it :( My local library will buy it next year... I hope I won't see any spoilers..

Cassandra is the best :). I've not read that book, but I do hate it when a book has a lot of potential, but doesn't use it...it's very frustration to read..

I just finished the Throne of Glass series and it was absolutely incredible!!! The problem is, I don't know what to read next because I fear it won't be as good as Sarah J. Maas's books.
I know that it is more or less YA, but I am currently reading The Silmarillion from J.R.R Tolkien! Its really good. Essentially the bringing together of all the Lord of the Rings author's notes on the creation of his world, the Humans, the Elves, etc.. Really interesting so far!
If looking for a light hearted, easy read, check out Dreaded Dinner Party by Destiny Henderson.

Maas's books."Hey everyone, I'm Chante, I just finished reading "The Cruel Prince" by Holly Black. I would recommend the series to anyone if you loved ACOTAR. Holly Black has more of a complex writing of faeries but I would say their both really good reads.
New here and late to this post! I am reading two books actually. The first is Children of Blood and Bone and the other is Gone Girl.
I m reading The Wall Of Winnipeg And Me by Mariana Zapata
Hey I'm new too! I'm reading Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
I just finished a graphic novel called hostage by guy deisle and now am moving on to loving vs. virginia
Hi, there's this book called Muskaan-The Story of her Smile. Do read it.
just finished a very large expanse of sea
New here too. I'm just finishing up "The Sawkill Girls". I really don't know what to think of it. But, if scary is your wheelhouse, pick it up.
I'm finishing The Land of Painted Caves. It's the last in The Clan of the Cave Bear series. I wont give opinion or review unless you ask. Cause spoilers.
I just finished reading She Lies in Wait by Gytha Lodge and it was amazing. Starting The Suspect by Fiona Barton right now
Aafreen wrote: "Currently reading One Of Us Is Lying!!!"Loved that book! I'd figured out the twist a wee bit before it happened, but partly because I'd come across a similar twist recently.
FREE OFFER - I came on here to see if any of you book-seekers would be interested in my new YA novel, 'Quest' - it's free this weekend on Amazon (Genre: YA fantasy / adventure / romance). QUEST: First Snow Book 1...but after reading all those earlier comments I'm fixated on looking up 'Deep Blue'! Mermaids here I come.
Just started the second of the Lunar Chronicles. Loved 'Cinder,' although it finished on a bit more of a cliffhanger than I like...a lot of the reviews I've read say the second one is better.Am simultaneously reading Diana Gabaldon's 'Drums of Autumn', depending on my mood.

Think I started with Valley of Horses and didn't finish the series (due to living in remote area without a decent library!). May try the series again from the start.
Just finished reading A Sorrow Fierce and Falling by Jessica Cluess a few days ago. Now I'm reading Labyrinth Lost by Zoraida Córdova.
Hi everyone! Im new here! the book im reading now is One of Us is Lying
Princessjas04 wrote: "Hi everyone! Im new here! the book im reading now is One of Us is Lying" That's awesome! I loved that book it had such a plot twist at the end I'm actually reading her new book "Two can keep a sercet" (not a sequel to one of us is lying)
Currently reading The Trapped Girl by Robert Dugoni
The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon
I’m reading a book called the princess spy by Melanie Dickerson. It’s a part of the hagenheim series
I am currently reading the hocus pocus sequel.
