So I asked Sarah when this BR was meant to start and she goes 12th so I'm either really early or a little bit late but I've started anyway.

Loving this so far

Up to Chapter 5:

(view spoiler)[ I'm just not really loving Limeros' incest storyline but apart from that I'm enjoying it immensely! The abrupt murder at the beginning just drew me in. I love revenge! ;) (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Read to chapter 21:

This has got to be one of the best books I've read.... :-D


(view spoiler)[ Ok so, so far Im really loving the change of perspectives of the different kingdoms and the way the seperate stories are linking to each other so flawlessly.

Cleo is by far my favourite becasde who dosent love a badass princess who breaks the rules, doesnt listen to her father and runs off to save her sister then gives herself up? ME!

Also I think I've started to fall for Jonas. Hes soooo angry about his brothers death but he's hot..

Then you got the incest storyline which isnt really incest now that we found out that Lucia and Magnus arent really brother and sister by blood. Yet he still had feelings for her.. stilll.... (hide spoiler)]


Anywho - i just summed up all those chapters in one spot. But I just cant stop. Its soo good ;-)

FINISHED! OH MY FUZZBALLS.

Need to read the next book. The stories, the kingdoms, the characters - epicness overload.

Full review to come..

[Crystal]

I so wanna read this

[Brooke]

27%
(view spoiler)[ the narrators voice and the way this guy acts, sounds like the bad guy in GoT. the "uncle" or whatever. scary. (hide spoiler)]

[Brooke]

68%
(view spoiler)[ so he loves the girl but shes his sister. the saving princess stuff has me thinking mario! really thou. (hide spoiler)]

[Brooke]

Door!
(view spoiler)[ WHY WOULD YOU HAVE ANYONE NEAR THE DANG DOOR WHEN YOU TRIED TO OPEN IT?! Really, it's a magically door and you know have a bunch of kids burning.... sad. (hide spoiler)]

[Brooke]

Ending Thoughts
(view spoiler)[ Someone is going to hit me. I didn't love this. It was alright. Dragged too much for my liking thou. The "incest" love killed me. Thou in this time period, that was a bit more okay than it is now. Too many deaths near the end, not given enough of a climax for them. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Prologue
(view spoiler)[What a happy start! What with betrayal and all.
But honestly, what else did she expect from her mommy-murdering sister? (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Chapter 5
(view spoiler)[Cleo is very much coming off as a pampered little girl who can't actually do anything. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Halfway through chapter 12
How do you shrug defiantly? I can't picture it.

[Meaghan]

Just finished Falling Kingdoms, and posting my updates for it now!

[Meaghan]

Falling Kingdoms 5%
(view spoiler)[Okay I really really really wish Aron dies in this book. I just hate him. (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Falling Kingdoms 8%
(view spoiler)[ I'm thinking Lucia is the orphan girl from the prologue, since Sabina was so "close" to the King, she probably gave the girl to him. (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Falling Kingdoms 53%
(view spoiler)[ it's probably not that good that the King knows of Mason's incestuous feelings, because that's definitely going to be held over him (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Falling Kingdoms 82%
(view spoiler)[ Jonas probably hit the nail on the head with his suspicions of Gauis betraying the Paelsians (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Falling Kingdoms 100%
(view spoiler)[I really didn't care for the "useless" or simple deaths of many people near the end, specifically of those close to Cleo. They should've been used better, but I don't really see any true way they were important. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Chapter 19
(view spoiler)[I really hope Magnus decides that he and Lucia need to run. Daddy dearest is bad news. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

Chapter 25
(view spoiler)[Sorry to say, but I laughed when Theon died. He turned his back on the enemy to make gooey eyes! TSTL right there! (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Just finished Rebel Springs, and am finally able to post my updates now!

[Meaghan]

Rebel Springs 1%
(view spoiler)[ Right back into the deaths, blood, and fire! (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Rebel Springs 17%
(view spoiler)[I'm actually liking the rebel plot! I was worried I wouldn't, as I didn't really care for it in book 1. (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Rebel Springs 38%
(view spoiler)[Not Mira! Cleo has lost too many people already! How much more can she lose???? (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Rebel Springs 79%
(view spoiler)[Oh god I really don't want to ship Magnus and Cleo but I feel it already starting. This is going to be like the TOG love triangle all over again, me wanting both Jonas & Cleo to happen and Magnus & Cleo. (hide spoiler)]

[Meaghan]

Rebel Springs 93%
(view spoiler)[Is anyone else literally cheering the fact that Aron's dead? God, he was just so insufferable. (hide spoiler)]

[Eesh]

@Meaghan The rest of the series BR (after book 1) is on the series readalong thread.

[Allison]

25%

(view spoiler)[ Cleo is definitely my favorite point of view (hide spoiler)]

[Allison]

50%

(view spoiler)[ I wonder if that old lady is actually the old lady they're looking for (hide spoiler)]

[Allison]

75%

(view spoiler)[ I knew I had to be worried about Theon's life span!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Allison]

100%

(view spoiler)[ That cliffhanger though...I can sense greatness coming (hide spoiler)]

[Jordan]

Reading from the 9th of July 2016

***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

[Sharon]

Chapter 1: (view spoiler)[ I can't believe Aron. I do not think he had to stab the wine seller's son in the throat. I think he should have listened to Cleo. It is super stupid of himself to act so almighty. Just because he is a royal, does not mean you have to act like a douche. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 7: (view spoiler)[ I do not like Aron. He is a jerk. I feel bad for Cleo, she did not want the wine seller's son Tomas to be killed, and especially in that way. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 19: (view spoiler)[ Yes!! There is no more Sabina! Never liked her since the prologue when she killed her sister, Jana. Thank you Lucia. I am wondering why her father so proud. Wasn't Sabina his mistress? (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 25: (view spoiler)[ I was sad when Theon died. Was Magnus trying to take Cleo with him? For what reason? I liked how Nic came to her rescue. I think Cleo now knows what it feels like to lose someone that you love just like Jonas does. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Ending Thoughts: (view spoiler)[ First off, Cleo should have done something for her sister instead of talking with Nic. I can't believe Emilia died right when the cure was found. That is so sad. Auranos was victorious in the war. However, Cleo will now be Queen. Also, how did Magnus find Cleo again for a third time? I need the 2nd book now. (hide spoiler)]

[Jordan]

I'm late for this buddy read, but I'm going to try and start in the next few days :)
