[Yz the Whyz, Moderator]

I will be reading and for this list.

[Yz the Whyz, Moderator]

I finished both 11/29 and 11/22 for this list and I was thinking that this is how authors should end their Young Adult trilogies. (Don't really care for those that killed their main characters)

Overall, 5 stars for Winter and 4 stars for Champion.

[Kim]

I am reading Winter for this list. I am glad you liked it Yz. Looking forward to seeing how the series ends.

I wanted a little bit more from the ending, especially for Cinder and Kai, but, overall, I thought she ended it satisfactorily.

[Vi]

I finished (it was a freebie) and I liked it. An interesting start to the series though I was expecting a bit more than the length. I'm continuing the series because I've heard good things about this.

[Suzanne]

"Random Book List #265"

I finished reading Champion by Marie Lu and it was ok. It felt like a Divergent/Hunger Games knock-off, I just couldn't get into this series...

[Ty]

finished . 4.5*
loooooooong read, but satisfying end to a roller coaster series.

I did watch it anyway...and found the movie lacking. I still have a crush on Four (Tobias Eaton)

I'll read for this one. So glad it's finally out on audio!

I finished today. Lovely book. Makes me want to re-read her Edge series also.

I read Sweep in Peace for this list on 1/8/16 and I LOVED it. From beginning to end, I was hooked. I can't wait for this series to continue! *5 STARS* for me.

[Yz the Whyz, Moderator]

I read for this list. I'm glad I did because there are so many things that were added that I don't remember from the serial. As always, Ilona Andrews rocks. *****

Also working on reading but I'm going so slow. Might pick up something else and continue it later.

Random Book List #269

I finished reading Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews and I really liked it! I gave it 5 stars, I really enjoyed the world they built. It was unique, which made me happy. I've read too many authors who try to write 2 series at the same time and they end up resembling each other.
