Yup Erin a very exciting month indeed for releases. Already started mine with a bang. Lots of great releases so far :)

 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments Just finished Darkest Mercy (Wicked Lovely, #5) by Melissa Marr and it was awesome! Probably my fave in the series. This one or #1. Every single character and sub-plot got an HEA! I dont understand why I was previously hearing such mixed reviews for this series.


message 18362: by Kait (new)

Kait I got an ARC of Dare You To (Pushing the Limits, #2) by Katie McGarry , but I don't want to read it yet because I can't post the review for so long.

Has anyone read Devoured (Devoured, #1) by Emily Snow ? I think I might start that tonight after writing a few reviews.

I'm jealous - I loved Pushing the Limits.

Just finished

Hunting Lila (Lila, #1) by Sarah Alderson .

Now reading Incarnate (Newsoul, #1) by Jodi Meadows and Through the Ever Night (Under the Never Sky, #2) by Veronica Rossi

I've never gotten an arc (except for indie books) so I dont know how it works. How come you cant review it till it comes out? Isnt the point of ARCs to let ppl know ahead of time whether or not it is good? To build anticipation or spread the word to ppl who are unsure whether or not the want to read it? You cant really do that without a review. You could say "Yeah, it was good. Read it." Thats doesnt really tell ppl what was good about it, or whether it would appeal to them personally. Haha, anyways, just curious. :P

I am still having trouble finding a good read after Hopeless. I'm reading Slammed though and loving it!

You can post the reviews before the book is released, but I usually try to post no sooner than a month before the release. Though I'm thinking I might not be able to wait. I peeked at the first page and now I can't stop thinking about it!

Right now I am listening to Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater which meets the challenge *snickering* but I isn't quite what I thought it would be. A little slow if you ask me. Has anyone else read this?

I have and I loved the series overall. Kind of slow but I liked that fact because I thought it developed the romance nicely and made it more of the sweet type. The second one is my favorite though.

Since it is on audiobook and I can check my GR and do my laundry I can get through it. Besides I can't put it towards my challenge if I don't read it! Maybe we need a new genre called BBWTIIYA. That means baby books who think it is YA.

I bought the box series, but wish I had stopped after the first one. It was the only one I liked.

So I finally broke down and got Half-Blood (Covenant, #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout . Going to read it when I finish Predestined (Existence Trilogy, #2) by Abbi Glines . But it is really taking me a while to finish because my emotions aren't what they used to be.

Lol, who knows you might enjoy it. I just really enjoyed the developing love story between them in Shiver. By the second and third book more characters were added with their POV and I just didn't like or care about them, so why do I want their POV? Good luck, maybe you'll like it;)

Congrats on the ARCs hun!! So exciting to have them pre-release!! As for the reviews, ARCs are usually sent out so reviews can be put up in the timeframe the publisher is hoping to use to get a buzz going, which would be right around the time it's released (Spencer Hill requested reviews for Apollyon be posted between mid-Feb thru April, which is when it's coming out).

Hell, I wasn't about to wait another month to read my Apollyon ARC, so I just typed up my review in a Word doc. =) Don't wait, you need to feed us some tidbits!! LOL

Finished Up to Me (The Bad Boys, #2) by M. Leighton this morning and I loved it!! Can't ever have too much Cash, and oh boy did he have me drooling like a teething baby!!! ;-)

So who in our group has finished Finale (Hush, Hush, #4) by Becca Fitzpatrick ?? I'm about 170 pages in and I'm reeeeeally frustrated with the sudden disappearance of Nora and Patch's love story!! Nora's been cold and distant with him and they've barely touched, WTH happened to the beautiful moments from Silence (Hush, Hush, #3) by Becca Fitzpatrick ?! Someone please tell me their sparks come back at some point?

I'm picking up The Crimson Hunt (Eldaen Light Chronicles, #1) by Victoria H. Smith tonight to get my disappointment off my mind for the night!

Oh jeez, I read that awhile back but I think there are cute moments scattered throughout. I wouldn't say they get as touchy-feely as in the other books though. It's more dialogue than anything else.
