[Karen]

I have the next read !

[Shell]

Has anyone else started? It is so good that I can not bring myself to put it down!

[Bernadette]

I’m starting it now, so excited to pick it up! I couldn’t track down a copy of last month’s book so I’m super keen to join in this month :)

[Agnes]

I hope to be able to read it this month, but I have Words of Radiance and Scarlet Tides to read first... so it will be towards the last part of the month :D

[Danielle]

God, I'm loving this book so much so far. I'm just over half way through and hooked (i'll probably finish it tomorrow).

I'm not usually a big fan of flashback scenes in books but find them really enjoyable in this instance.

I do wish we would get back to the gladiator ring though, Çeda had such a badass introduction but hasn't been as strong since.

[Lis]

I'm on Chapter 13. I'm actually finding the book boring. Does it get better?

[Nichole]

I'm a little over 300 pages in and I love it so far.

[Danielle]

I finished it and the ending really picked up the pace and turned out kind of epic, I’m glad we picked a stand alone to read next month or I’d struggle to keep reading all the series we’re starting

[Agnes]

I'm a little over 200 pages in, and so far I like this story.

[Cass]

I’m having a harder time working through this one than I thought I would. I think it’s because this is the second book I’ve read recently with fighting pits and I’m mixing them up.

How is everyone else doing?

[Jessica]

This isn't a quick read for me, but I'm enjoying it so far. I'm just over 200 pages in, and I like the mystery and what we are learning so far.

[Bernadette]

I read about 50 pages but I'm finding it to be a very difficult read - the pacing is quite slow but there's something else putting me off from picking this back up and I'm not quite sure what it is. I need to give it another chance, see if I can get into it!

[Cass]

If anyone does better going back and forth between physical and audio, I did see this book on Scribd.

[Jessica]

I finished it! I really liked the ending and how Ceda's story is going to continue and develop. This book is intense and has a really cool and vast world that I really want to read more in!

[Agnes]

Half a month late, but I finished it!
I definitely liked it, though it was a much slower read for me than other books. I might have managed to read it faster, tough, if not for the workload I had end of November and at the beginning of this month.

I'm curious how the story continues, not least because I'd really like to know what Ihsan is scheming!

[Grace]

I'm late too. Glad I've already read Proiry of the Orange Tree. I'm almost done and I also felt it was a little hard to get into. However, it's picked up and I'm enjoying it.

I haven't read Priory of the Orange Tree, but I have read Leviathan Wakes, so next month should be fine for Priory :D

What did you think of it? People are so divided regarding this book, I'm glad to have a push to reading it, otherwise I'd drag it along for ages :D

[Grace]

I liked Proiry. I did feel that some of the characters could have been built up more. I think that's why some feel it would be more than a stand alone. Overall, I felt the story went well.
