Yes, she certainly did an awesome job at tripping us up and making our hearts break for both Adam and Warner. They both deserve happiness and have both been tortured enough. Not to talk about poor Juliette! Goodness this series is a real heart crusher :(

AD (ad345) | 96 comments Just bought Rocked Under (Rocked #1) by Cora Hawkes and Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard, #1) by Christina Lauren eeeeeppppp!
I'm just not sure which one to start first :(

Shelly | 959 comments I give up!lol I can't even keep up with you ladies!


message 20754: by Annie (new)

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments Yeah Belkis I do not envy her. I wouldn't know what to do in her shoes. In spite of all the shit she faces and endures in her life, she's still such a strong lady. She's so brave and courageous with a lovely heart. Oh how this wait for the next one will be torturous. Good thing we have so many others to keep us busy until then.

I have to agree!!! I read their comments for recommendations, but I know I'll never be able to participate in the conversations because I can't keep up with 'em!

When did reading become competitive? lol

Oh I knew you would get conflicted like the rest of us LOL it's hard to choose who the best fit for Juliette is ... Now we have to wait lol but yeah hoping the novella in between is about Adam we need to know him more

I've heard nothing but good things about this but have not read it yet


message 20759: by Annie (new)

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments I agree. I want his story and hear his voice and feel his emotions. And yes, I am conflicted. I was hoping that wouldn't happen. I tried to deny it but inevitably it was hard to deny any longer. Gah. Yes a year...how the hell can we wait that long? *pouts*

So glad you finished it and loved it!! Knew you'd be just as conflicted, Warner just blew me away. *sigh* I don't doubt Adam will end up with Juliette in the end, Tahereh put too much into their story in Shatter Me for all of that to mean nothing. He's her lobster!!! LOL

Okay, so after a really disappointing R4R, I'm picking Ruining You (Ruining, #2) by Nicole Reed back up to finish off this heartbreaking story while I read my smutty books. ;-)

message 20770: by Kait (new)

Kait Just finished Dare You To (Pushing the Limits, #2) by Katie McGarry & Shatter Me (Shatter Me, #1) by Tahereh Mafi .

I LOVED DYT. And I got a sneak peak at Isaiah's story. *sigh*
SM was good too, I'm looking forward to reading Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2) by Tahereh Mafi next.


message 20771: by Annie (new)

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments Make sure you read Destroy Me first Kait. You gotta get Warner's story before Unravel Me. :)


message 20772: by ♥ Rebecca ♥ (new)

 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments Just finished Falling Kingdoms (Falling Kingdoms, #1) by Morgan Rhodes . it was good but I wasnt wowed. I seemed to have too high of expectations from YA fantasy thanks to Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore . :p I have been underwhelmed by YA fantasy I have read since, such as Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1) by Sarah J. Maas . I cant really say which I liked better they were both about 3/5 for me.

Kait Annie wrote: "Make sure you read Destroy Me first Kait. You gotta get Warner's story before Unravel Me. :)"

Oh, yes! Thank you Annie. I almost forgot. But there's no way I'm going to be swayed into Warner's arms, unless he was being controlled by aliens or something because that boy is a straight up murderer. I'm forever Adam's girl. :]


message 20774: by Annie (new)

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments LOL I understand Kait. Really, Adam still has my heart. But I do feel bad for Warner. His dad is a monster.

I've read it, and its good but not as good as [ book:If I Stay|4374400] and Where She Went. They are high on my list of favourite books so I shouldn't compare it to them.

Tiana411 | 701 comments Finished Cinder (Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer . Definitely a different take on the fairy tale version, but very good.

I LOVE
[bookcover:Where She Went|8492825]....a definite favorite! Those were the first contemporary ya books I read as an adult actually and I was in love.

This is why I don't want to start any series until ALL the books are out! I lived under a rock until all the Twilight books came out and finished all of them in 3 days! Actually it started my reading addiction:) The cliffhangers are killers!

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Okay finished my reread of Take This Regret (Take This Regret, #1) by A.L. Jackson and my heart wept all over again and fell hard in love with it anew. Would love it if they made an audiobook version of it so I can buy it and enjoy it in every possible way LOL! Now going to continue my February Lovefest with On the Island by Tracey Garvis-Graves which is another reread of books I LOVE. Too bad the audiobook of this one is horrid so I'll be rereading my kindle ebook version. And still continuing my reread of A Hunger Like No Other (Immortals After Dark, #2) by Kresley Cole on audiobook. Have found a new book addiction with audiobooks because now I can listen to my books while I work long hours in front of the computer. All is right with the world :D

I really enjoyed this one too. Book 2 Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles, #2) by Marissa Meyer is fantastic.


message 20796: by Annie (new)

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments Oh Belkis I already read Where She Went. It was my first contemp romance I read as an adult...actually If I Stay was. And they were superb. Definitely recommend them. :)

You shouldn't be. I just finished it and for a series finale, there may be mass rioting in the streets due to frustration. Definitely not that satisfying ending I expected. Hopefully you both enjoy it more.

I was too. It's not crap, far from it, the second half is quite good, but it's trying to convey a social message I suppose and I expected a more definitive ending. It's still worth the read though, very much so.
