I tried this too and could not get into it. The VA series is one of my all time favorites and so I figured I would love Storm Born. Maybe I should give it a rest and try the Succubus/Georgina series instead.

Julie,I really liked the first one! It had a lot of humor in it and was a real fun read. You should give them a try if you like adult romances and werewolves!! :)

I've added it to my growing TBR list :)
I'm reading The Adventures of Ook and Gluk, Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future. Hooray for immature humor that has me giggling like a little schoolgir!
Looks like I'm adding another book to my list. Going to start reading
to my son. Seems like the kind of thing he would like. Dragons, action, gross stuff, silly names, etc. (I think his dad will like it too!) :)
Come check out this new book about 50 foot waves, growing up, and the magic that makes life a game. Aloha!!

I just started this one and was wondering if anyone who has read it liked it?

I just started this one and was wondering if anyone who has read it liked it?"I read it and didn't like it, it's one of those books that seriously annoyed me. But a lot of other people liked it. Most give it about 3 to 4 stars. I can't tell if you'd like it, based on your ratings, though.

I thought it was okay, but I didn't really like it. Lena was a really selfish character IMO.
I'm currently reading Fate (My Blood Approves, Book 2). I liked the first one pretty well. Well enough to get interested enough to care about what happens to the characters.
finished
It was the wierdest book I have ever read. I didn't really like it a whole lot but at the same time had to finish it. To much slang and when a book comes with a dictionary for its slang and cliques its just to much for me.So now trying
giving a zombie book a try not really into them but it sounded neat so I guess I will see..lolI guess this month is read out of my comfort zone month..LOL
Peep and Emily,
is not really grabbing me and I can see where you didn't like Lena to much she is driving me a bit crazy and I am only on chp 8. I might abadon it for something else or I might keep on going not sure yet. :(

I finished it last night. I really liked it!
Just finished
and I must say that I really really really enjoy this series. Can't wait for the next one to come out.It's such a perfect fit for tomboy me.

Maybe your right. I don't know why i couldn't get into it....It seemed a lot like Alice and Wonderland to me. Did you think that too?

I've heard the succubus series is really goo, I haven't read it yet but I plan too.
Something like that. I just put "Fall" in my brain because its so far away I won't remember unless goodreads sends a happy reminder email.
I just finished
, it took me forever to get into it but in the end it wasn't bad. I'll continue with the series, but honestly I was a little disturbed by the twist involving Clary and Jace.

"So how are you liking the Cassandra Clare series?"
so far they are good, lots of twists and turns to keep the story interesting. they might not make it onto my "favorite series" shelf but it will for sure be on my "good series" shelf.
XVI It's kind of a scary book simply because in the back of my mind I can see these things as being a possibility.
Finished
! It was good, but not great like the others. I hope the next one is better!Now Im reading
. Im on the 3rd chapter and it is VERY confusing so far! But I heard its amazing so I will keep reading!
Read
over the weekend and really really did not like it at all. Followed up on that with
which was much better. Now going back to
while I wait for more books to come in from the library...
You didn't like Knife? *sad face* It's one of my favorites.Started
last night. Planning to go to the library today on my lunch hour.
No, I did not like it at all. To start with, the use of "-shun" instead of "-tion" in some nouns -- "attenshun", "informashun", "inspirayshun" drove me nuts. And then the ending was not an ending at all... :-(

Despite reading some negative reviews, I am reading Wicked Lovely. I bought it on my Nook when it was on sale, and I was drawn by the beautiful cover. I really hope it is good. I am trying not to choose books based on other people's reviews, but sometimes they do scare me? :)
