I read this back in November and ended up being really disappointed with it. It started out pretty good, but didn't end up that way.

Jess | 3721 comments I started Darkborn (Darkborn Trilogy, #1) by Alison Sinclair and I'm not really enjoying it, so I set it aside to read something else.

I ended up being very underwhelmed by this book and have no plans to read the next one.

Sarah  | 766 comments Ditto all the "underwhelmed" comments about Hush, Hush. It was a wonderful concept and great cover art gone bad.

I agree with you about the cover art. I just don't get all the buzz the book has gotten. For a lot of the book I was bored.

Sandra--Prey & Shift by Rachel Vincent

and Ellen--it is already in some stores now. I got it at Borders Books--I'll bet that Barnes and Noble has it too. I cried like a baby in Prey--that was rough. I am excited about reading it, but sad because once it is over I will have to wait until fall for Alpha. it could be worse--could be a whole year. God Bless Rachel Vincent!


message 525: by Sandra (new)

Sandra  (sleo) Thanks.

*jealous* I've been checking my library's OverDrive website for this audiobook every few days but they still don't have it. I listened to The Hunger Games on audio and enjoyed the experience and want to continue the same format with the same narrator. But I'm cheap and refuse to pay upwards of $20 on an audio book. Heck I don't even like paying more than $7 bucks for any book, period! So anything over that goes on my wish-list until the price comes down.

I'll look forward to hearing about your experience with Catching Fire! :)

Mary E. (jujjy) | 16 comments Recent reads for me have been Red Fire (Gods of Midnight, #1) by Deidre Knight (bleh, too cheesy, 2.5*), Hallowed Circle (Persephone Alcmedi, #2) by Linda Robertson (LOVED it! 5*), and Blue Diablo (Corine Solomon, #1) by Ann Aguirre (LOVED it! 5*).

Currently reading [image error] (it's really good so far, I see another 5* and yet another new series on my TBR).

Next up is probably Fool Moon (The Dresden Files, #2) by Jim Butcher or Darkfever (Fever, #1) by Karen Marie Moning .


message 534: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments Mary ~ I am really liking Catching Fire. I know I am having to approach the book a lot slower than if I was reading, but that is ok as there is so much happening.

I am glad to see there is another fan of Linda Robertson, I really like that series and it is different.


message 535: by Darcy (new)

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments Next up for me is Ecstasy Unveiled (Demonica, #4) by Larissa Ione and [image error] .

I haven't read anything by him, but was drawn in by the cover and how absurd (in a good way) it all sounded. Then when I picked up the book at the library my friend who works there told me he was good.

message 539: by Valorie (new)

Valorie I finished [image error] and really liked Gena Showalter's story, Maggie Shayne's was just ok, and really didn't like Susan Krinard's. I'm now reading [image error] and loving it!!

Sandra  (sleo) I got about halfway through Rosemary and Rue last night after finishing Slave to Sensation. R&R is good so far. Kind of noir.

I love these books. I've read the whole series.
