About 60% I realized how logical I was. But, DAMN, it made for an awesome read. It made me remember to be thankful that my life is never as bad as the characters in the books I read!

I kept cracking up. Even when she was sad she was funny.

I thought it was fantasic. Liam and Jojo AND Noah were awesome. The STUPID MISTAKE happens right in the beginning and the BIG MISUNDERSTANDING only lasts for a few pages - isn't that refreshing? - because these two have finally learned to COMMUNICATE. I would read it again.
Scott I agree! It was fantastic. The character dynamic really won me over. And Liam and Noah really made the book for me. All of the characters played their parts well. I only couldn't stand Nick the most but pretty much everyone else was great, I'd read it again too.
I am presently reading 2 books An Amish Gift by Cynthia Keller andThe Sinner's Grand Tour:A Journey Through the historical underbelly of Europe by Tony Perrottet

"It is, honestly. I enjoyed book one, but book two blew it out of the water, along with every other YA fantasy!

Finished
and I liked it okay.Last night I read
and I will be singing by praises from the rooftops! I LOVED IT!! You MUST go and buy it when it comes out on February 15th! LOLNow reading
Well I finished
last night and it was a bit of a disappointment to me in comparison with
. Book 2 somehow missed the mark for me. It was lacking the intensity of book 1 and it pretty much had me frustrated through most of it. The first 5% and the last 5% of the book were the most captivating for me everything else in between was less than for me. Hopefully the last book, whenever it comes out in 2014 will return me to my original love affair with this story. I can hope. Now thinking of starting
because after my disappointing read I need some smut and I it's also part of our couples cover challenge and my PNR group challenge as well. Hoping its good as I need hot, fun, light read right now. Afterwards then I might start
or
because these are too emotionally charged for me to read right this minute.

Okay thank goodness you said it before I did ;)"
Okay so I'm at the part where they just went to the Anne Frank museum and they got back their hotel "together". I'm guessing that at this point it will only go downhill and I should stop while they are happy. The writing is amazing and I love Hazel and Gus! I'm not sure I want to turn the page.

You go Heather. I am going to do that to right after The Fault in our Stars. Laura said it is good to read smut after a tear jerker.

I definitely agree that mixing them up like that is helpful. I just finished up some pnr and I always like to throw a little smut in afterwards. It's like a palate cleanser :)
We need a smut thread so all of us smutters can have a place to talk. hehehe. I didn't have smut on my kindle so Laura hooked me up. Thank you Laura. Now we can smut together.

I have this one on my TBR so I guess I need to bump it up. So it's a real emotional one? Man, haven't read emotional since Hopeless. At least they didn't feel that way compared to Hopeless. I hope that book hasn't ruined books for me.

Thanks Laura, that is really nice of you. I may just do that. My library doesn't carry crap and I usually go on my sisters library site and download audiobooks from it. I suppose you have TTB on your kindle? Maybe I will read that when I am finished with what I am current;y reading. I have one more "couple on the cover" to read and Tribulation. I will let you know and thanks again.

What did you think of Rebel Heart? I didn't like it nearly as much as Blood Red Road

Oh you have to read Hopeless Desiree! It is the most INTENSE book I have EVER read! It is amazing!

Yup I'm standing by that too :) smut is always great after an emotional read. To cleanse the palate as Heather so perfectly phrased it. That's why I'm going to start reading Raphael it's both PNR & Smut LOL!
Laura wrote: "In all Honesty I havent started a book yet,not even any smut after reading

Would love to read it after I finish these two so I will give you my email shortly.

I KNOW! I thought so as well. I wanted to like it, but it was just "okay" for me..Belkis wrote: "Well I finished

I mean the writing was still solid and I liked what she did with Soren as well as reintroducing Marran (hope I got his name right) and I appreciated the additional character insights into Perry but everything else was frustrating and found the book to drag in portions. And don't even want to get into Roar, Liv, Cinder crap. As well as the fact that we only got to have Aria & Perry together for like 5 minutes! Hopefully book 3 will get back on track and be closer to the awesomeness that was book 1.

See, I knew you'd end up loving it, too!! It's in my top favorites for sure, she really blew me away with this one! I was bawling like a baby when (view spoiler).["br"]>["br"]>

Holy hell, I just finished
and I'm a hot mess right now!!! *whimpers* I thought I was diving into a little easy smut, but good lord this was INTENSE!! Mix Fifty Shades and Bared to You through a blender and toss them into the mile high club, and that's about where you end up here. SO very thankful my group waited for the sequel to be out before we started, because there's a heart-wrenching cliffie that will have me reading
into the wee hours of the night!! Sorry Independence, you'll have to wait yet again...

Oh it's okay, we mix the smut in with the YA here so it's a nice balance! LOL We tend to go through phases as a unit, it's like we all share reading cycles on here now. =D

I'm so excited for you to read TTB and TINLID; it's hard to say which is harder to put down but they are both incredible!
