I loved the movie and when he was losing it in the middle of the night, I actually got quite anxious in the cinema while watching it. It felt so real and like I was sitting in the room with him while he was having his episode. I felt a little overwhelmed (but that's me, ever since I had my youngest Archer, I have anxiety) so besides that little episode, the movie was amazing!!

Today is a public holiday so I am hoping to get ahead in Pieces of You. i want to find out more. But from the bits that I read so far, the thing that bothers me about Adam is his fear of being unfaithful which just makes me want to slap him. While Chris goes out of his way to prove she is the one. Oh damn, I am team Chris I think.

It's on my TBR list too as I love Colleen Hoover's books. But they are quite pricey so they have to wait for a while.

Yes Paula I'm planning on reading book 2 this month. Need to know what happens next after the cliffie at the end of Hyde. Aww goodness there's a third book coming out :( *sigh* oh well I guess I'll have to checkout when book 3 is releasing to see how long a wait it's going to be before I jump into book 2 LOL!

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Okay so I finished Down London Road (On Dublin Street, #2) by Samantha Young late last night and HOT HOT freaking HOT! And let me say that I wasn't loving it at the beginning. I mean On Dublin Street was amazing! So maybe I went into this second book with some sort of expectations, but by the halfway point Samantha Young writer extraordinaire had changed my mind and sold me back into the story. Another great one indeed. Now starting Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson been wanting to read this one for a long time. Then because I can't wait any longer and the talk about it has me panting to start it like NOW LOL! I will also be starting Falling Into You (Falling #1) by Jasinda Wilder right away too!

If I am not fully mistaken book 3 comes out at the end of May. And book 2 is really fabulous but also ends on a cliffhanger. So I am all anxious to find out what happens in book 3.

Oh great! If book 3 is coming out at the end of the month then YAY! I'll definitely read book 2 this month in preparation for the release of book 3. Thank you so much for the heads up :)

Well book 3 Strange Case is slated for June release but there's no date posted, just says June so hopefully it does release by then.

Oh great, I was little scared to pick up Down London Road (On Dublin Street, #2) by Samantha Young . I didn`t liked Jo`s character in On Dublin Street and I didn`t want to be disappointed.

Yes, that's exactly what was happening to me. And as I said and posted on my status updates, I was feeling disappointed with like the first 40% of the book. After that Samantha Young sold me over and I warmed up to Johanna's character a bit more. And it help tons that I really liked Cameron's character, he's HOT! As well as the fact that all of the characters from On Dublin Street are involved in the story too. By the end I was happy with the book. 4 Star read for me. Hope you enjoy it.

Ugh, I read it and it was just...yeah, I don't know. I agree with you about the beginning, I LOVED it and I loved Kyle. But I couldn't connect with the person she became after the big "twist", and Colton was just too much of the "uneducated alpha male" persona for my tastes. Hopefully you'll like it more than I did! =)

Deeply and intensely. Argh.....good thing it is time for bed here. By tomorrow I should be able start another book after I am done fuming.

Really? Amazing! I didn't knew that! I thought it's separated story. I love Braden and it will be wonderful to read about him again, lol. Now I can't wait to get to it. But I have so many books waiting for me, I don't know when I will have chance. :(

I actually started the Consequences. So far I drank two glasses of wine out of despair and said wtf more times than in my entire life. This book is Evil!

Well, I have one friend who read it and liked it even moer than VA. I really cant imagine that. But I guess you should probably read some other reviews and decide whether or not it sounds like something you might like.

LMAO, yeah, he is REALLY hard to take in Consequences! I was shaking mad at him at times, it gets bad. It's so odd to talk about it now, because my opinion of him changed so much after Truth, and I was so desperate for them to be together in that book, but I still can remember that hatred I had! LOL

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments My goodness I was so excited to finally get to Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson . Have been wanting to read this book for a long time. And it has so so many raving reviews and 5 star ratings. So why the hell am I so freaking bored to death. It's dull as dirt so far. Seriously I'm almost in a coma :( have any of you lovey ladies read this one? I'm pretty persistent so I'll give it some more time to see if it gets better. Many readers say that the beginning is hard to get through, but dang I'm at 40% that's not really the beginning anymore LOL! Here's to hoping :D

Oooh, Shifting Dreams is really great. Just like anything by Elizabeth Hunter really. I enjoyed the book a lot and cannot wait for the next one to come out. Curious to see how you'll like it.
