message 19451: by mari (new)

mari nuvem (porcelania) | 8 comments I just finished The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus, #1) by Rick Riordan , and liked it way more than I expected.

Today I'll start We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson by Shirley Jackson. I'll admit that the cover was once again the reason that made me buy this book, so I hope it's worth it!

I really liked the first few books in the House of Night series, and I don't usually like YA but they were pretty good.

You are experiencing the after Fifty glow. I get it when I finish a BDB or Huntress book. I have to read something totally different. Sometimes I cannot even read a book for a day or two. Ask Crazy4More. That's who I got the term for.

Remember when I struggled with it. I stopped at page 75. I have not picked it back up. It was so boring. To go from books I could not put down(her first two) to a book I could not put down fast enough. So disappointing.

Julie | 188 comments Putting The Iron Daughter (Iron Fey, #2) by Julie Kagawa on hold because Meghan is annoying the sh$t outta me with her stupidity. I'm already a third of the way, and I just can't handle TSTL heroines and her jumping emotions and a love triangle that is needlessly just trying to build more teenage angst...

I am waiting to see what you think of the Psy-Chng series before I start it. I have the first four or five books...I keep meaning to start but something always pulls me away. I guess it is my short attention span or the zillion books I want to read.

I agree. I thought this one was better than the first. For me, the humor in the first was almost too much and at times actually pulled me out of the story. I think she balances it better with the rest of the story in this one. And I like the progress Charlie made with her family at the end of this one.

I also felt like the author finally established a balance that made the story more enjoyable as well as cohesive. I just found myself laughing less in this one. Though it was super hilarious when Charley had to advice Taft against dating "ho's" for the sake of his sister lol Strawberry Shortcake cracks me up :)


message 19474: by Delaney (new)

Delaney  Reimers  (delaneyakafrog) | 347 comments I am reading Druid's Daughter (Garland of Druids, #1) by Jean Hart Stewart on my kindle, about 60% through right now. Pretty good, hoping to finish it tonight. Started Blood Warrior (The Alexa Montgomery Saga #1) by H.D. Gordon on my computer last night and got to page 63. It grabbed me right away, but between the kindle and computer I have to give my eyes a break, so I am also reading Gift of the Goddess (Phoenix Rising, #1) by Denise Rossetti I'm at chapter 5 but it is alittle hard to get into for me so far.

Katya, give the psy-changlings a try. I'ts a really unique world, great characters plus the bonus of an story arc that continues right through the series as well as a HEA in each book.

I have to agree completely. For some reason when the first of the series came out I put it off for the longest time. I have now read the entire series many times. I absolutely adore Nalini Singh's writing, plot, and especially her relationships between the couples. My most favorite series of any genre :)

I tried another couple pages and then just gave up. I felt bad bc I loved the Elder series but it was lacking in every department, characters, plot, dialogs and conflicts.

I remembered you were struggling and while I was waiting for my library copy, I tried to encourage you on...sigh...so disappointed. I tried soooo hard by reading other positive reviews but the theme didn't change, the characters were lacking and I was dying. I had to stopped in order to hold on to whatever love I have left for Elder Races.

We figured after a really really great read, the afterglow just can't help but overshadow other reads...so we just have to switch genre...no competition.

Crazy4more (lan-ni) | 3071 comments Since a few of you are starting Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices, #2) by Cassandra Clare , I'll join you all too. I'm also starting an ER Fairyville by Emma Holly for my treadmill tomorrow.

Alisa (alisakayco) | 110 comments I finally caught up with the IAD series :0)

Now I'm finishing up the Rock Chick series by Kristen Ashley. I'm currently reading Rock Chick Revenge (Rock Chick, #5) by Kristen Ashley . I LOVE this series and the author as well. I hear her other series are just as good. Can't wait :0)

I can't wait until the end of this month either. Late Jan, early Feb, and March all have some very yummy new releases coming out. *Squee*

i did like how Briggs handled the love triangle. it's always nice when no one gets hurt by who gets picked to be in the couple. this series is really good. i like all the characters, the action and the romance. there is a great balance of all the aspects.

I'm going to have to second that! Psy-changeling series is a top fave. I put it off for ages but as long as you read them, it's all good :)

EowynRN | 121 comments Finished Lothaire Lothaire (Immortals After Dark, #12) by Kresley Cole a few days ago. It was awesome. And I really don't think this is too spoilery, but I have to say, the best line in the book "As if I'd want your F*ing guppy."

I read/finished Stray (Shifters, #1) by Rachel Vincent last night, which was no Lothaire, but still good. And Now I'm reading Rogue (Shifters, #2) by Rachel Vincent .

Christine | 1127 comments I have been totally sucked in by A Hunger Like No Other (Immortals After Dark, #2) by Kresley Cole , even though the story line so far should have really ticked me off. But for some reason I'm captivated by these characters rather than irritated by their behavior. Go figure.


message 19494: by Sheree (new)

Sheree I just finished Shadow Heir & am bitterly disappointed but I am shocked it took me only seven days to read it, I'm usually much slower. I will finally be starting Dark Lover tonight so I can finally fall in love with it as you all have, it better pick my mood up, I'm still pissed off at the conclusion to the end of the other series, I am so pissed off with the ending

you're not wrong Eowynmn, it used to be one of my favourite series but no longer & I wont be recommending them like I used to, it just pisses me off that I wasted 7days of reading that when I could have been reading something far better, I guess Dark Lover will have no chance of being crap in my eye's after reading that last book

I'm sitting here laughing. IMO, they get better. You will be completely sucked in.
I read the first 11 in a row, something I have a hard time doing with other series.
