Yes it was Annie. Truly wonderfully written. Even the few typos didn't detract from it. Cried my eyes out for them. Poor Clay and Maggie. Their characters were so well developed. And goodness the story was so well told. Loved that the author didn't take the easy way out with any of it and just told a sincere gut wrenching emotionally draining heartbreaking fall to your knees story. And through it all she still managed to give us hope lift our spirits and let them find their little piece of happiness. Loved it loved it loved it.

It's such a great story Sylvia. Truly worth moving up your TBR list for sure. Loved it. Will stay with me for a long time this one.

Anna didn't impress me much, I got about 200 pages in with a ho-hum response to it, then skim-read to the end. How are you liking it?

I've never been a big fan of contemporaries, but whenever there is a popular one like this I end up reading them anyway, hoping it will be the one to make the difference. They never are. There have only been 3 that I enjoyed enough to not regret reading after, or to actually recommend to others.

I actually feel the same way. Contemporary is just not my genre and I'll read most of the popular ones but rarely do I end up feeling the same way everyone else does. There are very few that I've liked enough to re-read.

I would never go as far as rereading them. I rarely reread books to begin with.

I really liked it too! It was definitely a unique twist on the mythology and I really enjoyed the characters. It definitely surprised me.

Scott-robert Shenkman | 202 comments I don't know why, but all books that have a lone girl standing around in a dress that's blowing in the wind tend to scare me away. Maybe I think they're all the same book...or girl...or both.

Is there a clinical name for such a phobia?

(Go ahead, I dare you - I want to see all the creative responses this goup can come up with!)

Cassi Clare is an AMAZING writer! I can not tell you how absolutely PERFECT CP is. You will fall in love with Will and Jem and Tessa. Oh my.... just so perfect. And fyi - I'm a 100% Team Will gal, so making me fall in love with Jem wasn't going to happen, but I did. So freaking awesome.

I finished One Week Girlfriend (Drew + Fable, #1) by Monica Murphy last night and am onto Second Chance Boyfriend (Drew + Fable, #2) by Monica Murphy right now. Fable (love the name) and Drew... that bitch (you know who I'm talking about) has got to pay!

message 23797: by Annie (new)

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments I agree Donna!! She's brilliant. Every character she creates you fall in love with. I already love Jem, I'm just not a 'Jem is for Tessa' fan. But he's amazing! Will, however, has my heart in his hands! LOVE him something fierce!! I also love Magnus!!! I love seeing him again!

Does CP2 give any insights into how CoHF might end?! I'm so nervous for that ending!

Yes that bitch has to pay! I hate Adele!

After reading CP2, I have some suspicions as to how CoHF will go down. I'm hoping to see Tessa in that book too!

Annie I thought CP was even better than CA. You're lucky you wont have to wait months after the ending in CP. Just wait!! Clare is such an amazing writer.
