How is it Billie? I only read a couple pages this morning and a little bit confused with R's mind and the world building but I like the writing. Somehow it's kind of poetic, I think.

I don't know whether our cinemas will be release it or not :(

@RAchmi: So far its going okay. I think you get confused because sometimes its like R is in Perry's mind? ( whenever R eats a part of Perry's brain? ) :D

Yeah, I think that's why and I kind of hard to picture the world building. But I think it's because I have to adjust my mind after I read many contemporary books these days :D

I saw the movie last Friday with my friends! It was kinda cheesy but really cute. I hope the book turns out great!


message 20260: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (dragonbee13) Finished reading Return to Paradise (Leaving Paradise, #2) by Simone Elkeles and I enjoyed it. Simone Elkeles is one of my favorite authors so it was expected lol

Now I think I'm going to read Prodigy (Legend, #2) by Marie Lu if I have time this week. Might hold off though since I heard there was a cliff hanger? Gah! I'm tired of all these cliff hangers these days! They're torturous ;_;

Also might hold off because I'm going to want to devour Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2) by Tahereh Mafi as soon as I get it in the mail. Man, I wish I had more time these days! I can only read one book a week instead of 3+ :/

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Oh. My. God. I just finished Prodigy (Legend, #2) by Marie Lu !! Seriously!?! So. Freaking. GOOD! But that ending AARRGGHH! And now we have to sit and wait like what, a year, for book 3?!? Wow. My brain is shot. That was intense.

Hmm I might hold off on reading Legend then. Except that you make it sound so wonderful at the same time, I want to see what you are excited about:)

LOL! I'm sorry Sara :) it's so good. Read it. It's not like it has a real devastating cliffhanger ending. It's sort of bittersweet in a sense. Makes looking forward to book 3 like a MUST to see where she's taking it. That sort of thing. But it's so exhilarating throughout the whole book. Nonstop action and intrigue. EEEKKPP!! So good!

I have not bought Prodigy yet, so I will probably wait a few weeks to start. I have so many books I have to read this month:( it is overwhelming.

Wanted to give myself a few days to clear my head from Prodigy but might not actually happen. I think I'm going to cave and just read it NOW blast it :D

I know!! Argh! And Prodigy, let me tell you, AWESOME. But again the ending!! Not a terrible cliffhanger but still leaves you aching for book 3 like right NOW.

Through The Ever Night was good, I just didn't love it like I did book 1 because Perry & Aria spent most of the book apart and some stuff in the story was a bit frustrating and Roar & Liv was just heart punching.

Okay, so I had a slow reading weekend thanks to family in town and football partying, but I DEVOURED Feral Sins (The Phoenix Pack, #1) by Suzanne Wright like I've never devoured another PNR!!! Gritty, naughty, wild, hot as a raging inferno, this was AWESOME!!! Sexiest PNR I've read to date, no doubt, and as most of you know that's saying a LOT! And, there's even a lot of clever LOL sarcasm and a great romance behind all of that with lots of heartache, too, so I was just completely lost in this!!

And for Cat and Bones fans, you thought chapter 32 was hot...wait until you get to chapter 17 with Trey and Taryn!! Just be prepared, it's not for everyone, but fans of the wilder reads will LOVE it! Can not wait for more from this series!!

If I can pull my mind out of the gutter, I'm going to start Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2) by Tahereh Mafi today with everyone else!! Maybe a good gut-wrenching read will manage to get me back in line. =)


Mello ❣ Illium ✮Harry✮ ☀Myrnin☀ Torin Ichimaru | 257 comments I've finished For the Love of a God by Rosanna Leo and it was a nice, sweet, light read.

Reading Blood Hunt (Sentinel Wars, #5) by Shannon K. Butcher now and there's certainly nothing light going on here.

Yeah,
Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2) by Tahereh Mafi and Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles, #2) by Marissa Meyer are definitely this week for me!! I don't think I'll be able to finish UM before tomorrow, you still up for buddy reading Altered (Setenid Blight #1) by Kimberly Montague this week, or are there too many piling up now? LOL You must read Feral Sins, though, it was hot! =)

Yeah, I noticed that when I clicked on the alternate editions on the GR page. The new cover is sexy! I have to get through Unravel Me first, I've been waiting too long to put this one off any longer, but I'm up for Altered after that.

Mmm, I can pretty much guarantee you'll hate Jack even more by the end. I despised him for a lot of reasons, but one event in particular had my blood boiling. And then the ending...oh sweet lord, you will be PISSED!! LOL I still haven't gotten past the second chapter of the sequel yet, and I'm very much undecided on who she should end up with. I hate Jack, but he's such wicked temptation...ugh.
