Heir of Fire - Starts 15th January (Devika, Johanna & Aarja)

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Hey guys! I'm not entering our normal form here.

There are 68 chapters. Well, it's up to us to decide.

Well, how about 9 chapters for the first 4 days, then 8 for the other 4 days.
What do you guys say? :)

[Johanna]

I'm fine with this plan

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Great! Devika?

[◐Devika]

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Haha alright! I'll get on the reading for today :D

[◐Devika]

How much have you reached? 27 chapters? And do you all like it so far?

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Hi! Sorry for replying so late.

(view spoiler)[I'm shipping Sorscha and Dorian. Is it bad? Should I?

Anyways, I love Manon, I hate Rowan (for now).

And you, Devika and Johanna? (hide spoiler)]

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Which chapter have you guys reached? If not farther than 36, we can still reschedule :P

[Johanna]

I haven't read farther!!

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Okay!

[◐Devika]

I've only reached chapter 15😓
Yes, we can reschedule. Can we reduce it to 50 pages per day?🥺

[◐Devika]

And are we gonna start from chapter 36 today? Anything is fine, I'll just catch up today

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Just try to reach chapter 36 and when you do so, let us know. We can reschedule :)

[◐Devika]

Aarja wrote: "Hi! Sorry for replying so late..."

You just spoke my mind!
(view spoiler)[I ship Sorscha and Dorian too. But I don't think anything will happen between them, one is a healer and the other is a prince! How can they ever be together? But...we can always hope!
I don't have any feelings toward Manon. She is not bad, she is OK.
I hate Rowan too! A lot! But he is supposed to be good and is supposed to end up with Calaena, I guess?
And I got spoiled again😐(something about Manon) (hide spoiler)]

Ok, thank you so much for waiting(again!)❤

[spoilers removed]"

Yeah! Maybe not a healer and a prince... :/
Be careful next time and DON'T SPOIL US 😂

[◐Devika]

I'll try my best not to😂

I'm really surprised that you both don't get spoiled😲
Don't you ever just google stuff about the books you read? (google is the biggest spoiler of all time!

[Johanna]

NO :D Google is my worst enemy when I'm reading some book :D :D :D

[◐Devika]

Haha yes. That's why I try not to google things, I've already gotten spoiled for many books such as Allegiant... XD

[◐Devika]

😂😂

[◐Devika]

I finally reached chapter 36! \^o^/
So can we reschedule now? :)

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Yes! 4 books per day? :)

[◐Devika]

4 books?!🤣
4 chapters you mean?

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Oh yes.... sorry XD

[◐Devika]

4 chapters is good :)
So till 41 chapters today!

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Alright :)

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Hey guys! I slipped again. So I finished it. I will wait :)

[◐Devika]

Ok😂

[◐Devika]

You changed your pfp? Who is it? Manon Blackbeak? You like her so much?

[Johanna]

Aarja wrote: "Hi! Sorry for replying so late."
(view spoiler)[I have also felt that Manon's personality and POV has been almost the most interesting part of the book! I'm not so sure what I think about Dorian and Sorscha... Well their "thing" is sweet, but their POV and characters has been almost unnecessary for the main plot? I think their characters should have more deepness, they are lame one one dimensional. But they are sweet! Rowan is now a bit sweet & kind as well. I don't really get it why he was so unkind first? I have to say that this book overall started really slowly and even confusing because there were new characters, different POVs and all were unfriendly, melancholical and angry... (hide spoiler)]

◐Devika wrote: "You changed your pfp? Who is it? Manon Blackbeak? You like her so much?"

Yeah! I love her :D

(view spoiler)[Yeah, Manon's chapters are the best! loved them from the start! I used to ship Sorscha and Dorian, but I don't know how it helps the plot yet. \Yeah, I used to hate Rowan, but all of a sudden, he's changed. I know the endgame ship so I am excited! And I agree the start was kinda rough :/ (hide spoiler)]

Which chapter are you both on?

[Johanna]

I have read 48 chapters, so I'm one day behind. I was planning to catch it up today but now with Aarja finishing... This is now so much more interesting than at the beginning so I have to see if I can read more today

[Johanna]

I have finished now 56 chapters

[Johanna]

I have now read 60 chapters :)

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Great! Will you be able to finish by today? I'm very excited for TAB!

[Johanna]

Aarja wrote: "Great! Will you be able to finish by today? I'm very excited for TAB!"

Yes I could do that, there isn't much left :)

[Johanna]

Finished!
(view spoiler)[I loved the plot twists, but I hope character would get more flesh and deepness. And this was a bit too slow at the beginning. I loved the end part, it was so thrilling to read!! I'm eager to see how this continues.

And Sorcha!! O.O

Aarja... I cried once... when I read author's thanks and there was the text for her dog. Haha, you know me, couldn't anything else than cry xD (hide spoiler)]

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

(view spoiler)[I know! I didn't really expect Sorscha to (view spoiler)[die... (hide spoiler)]

And aw! I understand. But in the first book, SJM acknowledged Leigh Bardugo, and Leigh did the same for SJM in Shadow and Bone. Just saying :D (hide spoiler)]

Yeah! (view spoiler)[How it tried to save Petrah... <3 (hide spoiler)]

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

And Devika? Are you here?

[Johanna]

Aarja wrote: "Johanna wrote: "Aarja wrote: "[spoilers removed]"

[spoilers removed]"

Yeah! [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Yes, exactly!! And the ending was super thrilling!! Can't wait to see what happens to Dorian now when he got that collar O.O (hide spoiler)]

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Ah, yes! That was scary!

[◐Devika]

I'm so sorry you guys. I still haven't finished Heir of Fire and I've decided to not do this buddy-read(the whole series). I have way less time to read now and if I'm doing it with you, you will have to wait for me all the time.


But I'll still comment on the threads as I read, I'll just be reading at an incredibly slow pace😭
So you can continue the series, don't have to wait for me :)

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Hey Devika. It's fine if you aren't able to read on time. You can still be a part of the buddy read! Once you're close to Chapter 55, I'll create a thread for TAB. And then you can still post your thoughts on this thread! I really love to read with you and Johanna, and it's fine if our pace doesn't match. But do think about it!

[Johanna]

I agree: I don't have a problem with waiting ^_^ Take your time, no pressures :)

[◐Devika]

I'm actually on Chapter 60 now, so you can create the thread :)
