Courtney Webb | 1361 comments Corina- yes this book is so good I love it so far and I’m probably 70% done with it! So def check it out!

&BELLA! Omg! You know what? That doesn’t surprise me at all in the least because she did a really great job tying the history into the story and really makes you want to learn everything on the subject of the Salem witch trials etc. at-least, with me she did!! :)

I’m pretty sure I’ve already asked but I’m gonna throw it back out there but does anyone have any SERIES of books they want to read all together or that we can look into and pick something we all wanna read?


message 52: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments That makes sense, Bella! I agree she integrated history into the story really well..made look into more witchy books hahaha.
Great to know that both of you liked it, definitely putting it higher on my priority list!
About the series, were we talking about Finlay Donovan? I believe book 2 is coming out soon? Granted, it's not a long series at the moment and I do have loads of other series I want to start, most are fantasy or mystery/thriller.


message 53: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments Ok my library has that one so I’m gonna look into it toooo. Did everyone still want to read the fire keepers daughter or a series/mystery etc. I’m up for anything. Or both. Lol


message 54: by Bella (new)

Bella | 1177 comments I'm down for either!

message 56: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments K same here


message 57: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments Hey Bella and Vanessa, where about are you in the book? Don't want to say anything and spoil it...or maybe I'm behind lol. I'm at 65% now, at part 3.v


message 58: by Bella (new)

Bella | 1177 comments I'm 80 percent through! part 3, ch 35


message 59: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments I'm almost half way done! I'll hopefully finish by next two day!

And yeah I'm okay with anything! I have both Firekeeper's daughter and Finlay with me!


message 60: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments You're a bit ahead of me, Bella!
How are you guys finding the book? Did you get to a reveal, Vanessa?


message 61: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments I want to read both it's just which ones first lol


message 62: by Bella (new)

Bella | 1177 comments can we read Finlay first? my library just notified me that it's ready for me to borrow!


message 63: by Bella (new)

Bella | 1177 comments ughh i love the book so far!!! my hold lapsed and it was returned back to the library and i left off at a cliffhanger. i was able to borrow it again today so I'm going to continue reading it tomorrow!


message 64: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments I’m down for whatever you guys want let me put a hold on it really quick!


message 65: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments I'm all good with reading Finlay first. Are you close to finishing Bella? I'm almost at 80%, hopefully will read some more tonight. I'm generally enjoying the book, it does feel maybe it's dragging a bit for me...


message 66: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments Finished last night :-) How are you going, Bella and Vanessa? and what are your thoughts?


message 67: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments I’m good with whatever you guys choose I have both in my possession


message 68: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments So I finished it last night!

I think because I took much break in between the chapters, that I felt I didnt really get into the story as much as I wanted to. Plus starting I was excited.

But I felt it dragged too much, that towards the end I was like why am I not finishing it sooner!

What about u guys?

And which book have u guys decided on next?


message 69: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments I agree that it dragged a bit too much in the middle, it took me longer to finish it than I thought too.
I enjoyed quite a few things about it, just it would have been better shorter I think haha
Finlay Donovan I believe :-)


message 70: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments I agree with you guys it would have def been better if it was shorter. By the end of the book I was just trying to finish it I wasn’t even interested in what happened to any of the characters by the end of it. Anyways, I have both books in my possession so it’s whatever everyone else wants to do!!!!


message 71: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments Courtney I had the exact same feeling!!! I was like just reach the end. Lol!

I have both the books! I'm ready to start with Finlay Donovan whenever u guys are ready!

I think Bella must have finished this one by now. She was ahead of me...


message 72: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments K cool
Bella!!’ Where are you love!!!


message 73: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments At some point guys I think it’d be cool to read “All Of Us Villains” toooo


message 74: by Bella (new)

Bella | 1177 comments i haven't continued reading! i had a rough weekend but I'm gonna start reading again tonight and hopefully finish tomorrow or so!


message 75: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments Oh, no, sorry to hear that, Bella, hopefully everything is all right! No worries, let us know.
Finlay works for me as I have it on my kindle :-)


message 76: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments I’m sorry Bella! I hope everything is better today!! :(


message 77: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments Hope everything is fine now Bella!


message 78: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments Have you guys voted in the Choice Awards?

I wait for the final results, and end up reading 1-2 books always!

Btw do you guys want to read any Xmas themed book next month to get into the holiday spirit?


message 79: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments No I'll check that out tho.. and yes I always try and read some holiday themed books I'll keep an eye out for some good ones. Is the Choice awards on here? I have like 10 messages I haven't read yet from different groups looking for votes and stuff I have to read them over again..


message 80: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments wow I have a lot of books to catch up on but I'm glad I had read a lot of them. I cheated for horror because I hadn't read any lol


message 81: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments I always end up confused which book to read for Xmas! Lol!

So do let me know the ones which catch ur eye.

Yeah the Goodreads choice awards are on! I have hardly read of the nominated ones this year! I'm planning to make a list of some of them n pick them up this weekend.


message 82: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments I got an email I think about the Choice Awards but haven't looked yet.
To be honest, I'm not much of a seasonal reader, so I don't really read Xmas books as such. I do want to read A Christmas Carol this year as I got a beautiful edition of it and I actually have never read it even if I watched a million adaptations lol


message 83: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments I try to read Xmas books! But I never seem to find any good ones and I end up reading my usual pending list.


message 84: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments You need to recommend some, Vanessa ;-)


message 85: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments A Christmas carol would be good I haven’t READ that in years!

And when I was going through the list there were so many books I hadn’t even heard of so I took screenshots (I was being lazy!!) lol


message 86: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments I made us a new thread :)

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


message 87: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments Haha I was bored so I made a list of around 15-20 books that I would look out for.

I haven't read any which are nominated in Romance Category!

So I got People we meet on vacation from the library... Planning to start that and also I got a graphic novel too... In Love & Pajamas.


message 88: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Webb | 1361 comments Ya I have a nice little list to make as well. People we meet sounds good I have so many I think we’d all enjoy reading too! Have you read Malibu Rising yet? I remember we were gonna read it but I don’t remember if you ended up reading it or not?


message 89: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa Menezes (vanessa_menezes) | 441 comments No I haven't read it yet. I might start it next month.

Firekeeper's Daughter and the Ex Hex... the two books we have planned are on it! So I'm excited for us!


message 90: by Corina (new)

Corina | 2768 comments I looked up the Awards as well and there are quite a few I want to read.
Really liked Beach Read by her, so want to read People we meet as well.
Have read Malibu Rising a couple of months ago, it was good, but I would say my third favourite after The 7 husbands and Daisy Jones.
Looking forward to those 2 as well, Vanessa :-)
