The Shadowhand book/series looks good. I wish it was on audiobook because I am so behind on print books and always listen to audiobooks faster.

Sorry, I just dislike the use of the Word cute. Cute to me is just above mediocre, so when people describe Anna and the French kiss as cute I get mad. Anna and the French kiss is a master piece, not simply "cute".
Diotto on geek girl.

2 books in and it's fantastic :) I'll let you know when I finish book 3 if it's worth putting on your long list of things to read haha. So far though, 2/3 done with the series and I've enjoyed it more than most books I've read in the past few years.

Yeah, it was kind of just a random find for me as well. Then I read it and was like "WHY ISN'T EVERYONE GUSHING ABOUT THIS!" haha
TOMMY: With all these Theodosia books you're reading, it's making me want to read book 2!

I decided to start this series because I heard good things about it. Anyone read the book/series?

I haven't read the last book yet. I LOVED the first book, the second book wasn't as good, but I still liked it. Its very different. I'm not liking the way the love triangle is going, that's my biggest issue with it.
Yea, the love triangle is a bit weird. I'm enjoying it so far. I don't know if I'm just really emotional these days, but I've been crying in parts of the book.

Definitely read book two. So much better than book one. I had a busy weekend so I haven't really started on book three yet.

I hated Shatter Me TBH, like ... really hated it. But I seem to be in the minority, I know a lot of people who love it. I just really couldn't stand the writing style; it seems to be pretty polarizing since it's so ... "different." XD

TOMMY: I think I'll put Theodosia up on my TBR list!
BRIGID: I understand why you hated it. I disliked the writing style too, but I really did enjoy the actual story. I gave it a 4
DARCY: definitely try Gallagher Girls. If you enjoy Heist Society, GG should be a must. But if you want a different genre, then maybe you should hold of on GG.

Wow did it surprise me! Anyone else read this one?"
I haven't heard of this one. You liked it then??

Darcy I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You
is like a younger Heist Society. I liked it. Are you looking for a different genre than Heist Society?

I didn't read the Selection - can't remember why now but it had something to do with the author??


I need to try that series too, I own them all!
Darcy wrote: "Oh yah? I'm not sure what that would be but I really liked it!"
Yeah it wasn't because of the actual book - something about some comments the author and her agent made somewhere. I seriously can't remember! Glad you liked it though :)

I had read the book before all that went down, and I mostly enjoyed it. I do want to finish the trilogy eventually, there's just other books right now I want to read more!

I am currently reading:


I'm not quite sure about the second one. I think I should have started with the Parasol Protectorate series.

Yeah it was her and her agent calling a Goodreads reviewer (Wendy Darling) a bitch on Twitter. They also told fans to go "like" all the positive reviews of her book so they would be more popular than Wendy's review. Her review is not even that nasty, really, so the whole thing was totally immature and uncalled for on the part of the author and her agent. So, personally I refuse to ever read that book. Even without all the drama, I don't think it sounds like something I would enjoy much, anyway.

Yes I love Wendy's reviews! She's always very honest and to-the-point, and I agree with her opinion like 99% of the time. :D

Loved Poison Study - I only liked Etiquette & Espionage but I loved Soulless and the follow up books. Both series are also great on audiobook too just FYI.

I think (as a lot of series) the finishing School series gets better with the books. But I agree parasol protecorate is better.

Also read and finished

Now reading


I have not Dixie. It seems like one of those books people love or they don't. My heart could not handle Gone Girl so I was planning on skipping it since it is supposed to be similar. Let me know what you think please :)





Also finished

Up next I'll more than likely start

Please keep me updated then! I am interested in what you think since you had the same reaction to Gone Girl as I did :)
