I know. I mean how someone who was sweet and nice in the 2nd books turned into a total ass in his book... tsk..tsk..

[Gea]

Sadly, that happens a lot in series I read. I really like a character and can't wait for his/hers book and when it comes it's such a dissappointment that my head hurts.

Agree.

[Kay ✾◕ ‿ ◕✾]

Read . It could be just the copy I have or the book really badly needs editing... If any of you read the same novel, please tell me which. But discounting that, with the main characters very likeable, the sexual tension tight, the approach to the actual relationship mature, the drama not overdone, good relationship with family and the constant volley of wits... 5 stars.

I finished this one yesterday. It was a 3.5 star. I think it just felt formulaic to me

New list?

Hi Ezinwanyi!

The new list for the thread should be posted Saturday night (EST). Yz leaves the thread open this week in case anyone who read a book for this list hasn't gotten to post it yet :) (At least, that's what I always thought, lol)

[Gea]

I finished and even when I love biker books this one was just too much for me. I gave it 3 stars mainly because as said above I love bikers but I usually prefer more romantic books. I will try the second book though and see if it gets any better.

comes out in a week and can't wait to read that one

You should have picked instead. I think it's a less hard core than . : )

[Gea]

I've read about a year ago and loved it. I also just finished and liked it almost as much as the first book - 5*

[Gea]

I don't know if we're in such different time zones that you always post when I'm asleep :/ I get 15+ notifications every morning and it seems it's a bad luck I miss these notifications

[Yz the Whyz, Moderator]

I read Karina Halle's . It was quite well-written but horror is not really my fave genre. 4 stars.

[Suzanne]

Random Book List #168

I finished reading and it was good, but super depressing. It was one long emotional roller coaster, when you think something couldn't get any worse it does. I'm pretty familiar with grief and watching all these people deal with it and do the wrong things was agonizing. I gave it 4 stars, but it'll be awhile before I read another Kristin Hannah book. I've read 3 this month and I think I've had enough. :)

This is a great list of books. I'll try to read one of them.

[Yz the Whyz, Moderator]

I think I'll join the bandwagon and will read .

[Kim]

There are probably 3 or 4 books I would read off this list. I will read the one that comes in from the library first!

[Gea]

I finished and it was a good book, but way too long for me to read in English. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more if I read in my language but sadly it hasn't been translated yet. 3 stars

[Lauren]

I also finished and wasn't that impressed. The pacing is too slow and Nora’s trademark skills at building tension is sorely lacking in both the romance and the suspense plots. I think there are better Nora books out there.

I don't think you'll regret it, Ezi. No chemistry between the H/h either :0(

[Ezi]

Thanks Lauren

[Gigi]

Finished in place of 3/2/2014 3stars. I liked it. Interesting book, will read the rest of the series. However, both the H/h annoyed me at times.

Random Book List #173

I finished reading Dark Witch by Nora Roberts and I thought it was ok. I was very similar to another trilogy that she wrote about 10 years ago so I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. I kept comparing and contrasting between the two. I'll definitely continue the series but I gave this one 3 stars.

I read the same book for this list. It's too similar to her Sign of the Seven trilogy I feel.

I agree! She should of at least come up with a different spell lingo. I got tired of hearing "SO MOTE IT BE"

[Kim]

I read The Heiress of Winterwood for The Headmistress of Rosemere. I rated it 3 stars.
