There is no such a thing as getting over Barrons! He has completely ruined me for any other fictional men. God, I love him!

 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments Finished reading Darkness Falls (Darkness Falls, #1) by Jessica Sorensen , which was good but not great imo. But it put me in the mood for post-apocs, so I am reading the shorts The Raid (Eden, #0.6) by Keary Taylor and The Ashes An Eden Prequel by Keary Taylor , before re-reading The Bane (The Eden Trilogy, #1) by Keary Taylor . I already read it when it was Eden (Eden, #1) by Keary Taylor .

I was happy with The Matched trilogy Laura. It's a more mellow dystopian. More focused on the relationship between the 3 MCs. I appreciated that fact. That we get more about the romance and the characters. More subtle and lyrical. Beautifully written. Feels poetic in prose with rich descriptions. Loved that it was different from most dystopian novels out there. Not full of nonstop action, not unnecesssrily bloody. Interesting storyline. Kept me engaged throughout and the ending was well thought out and left me satisfied. I truly enjoyed it.

Yeah, she fleshed out the story a bit in order to be able to turn it into a trilogy.

You'll love Hopeless. That book is amazing. Breath-taking, mind-crushing, heart-wrenching perfect.


message 26320: by Paula (new)

Paula (littledarling2012) | 621 comments Still reading The Disappearing Girl by Heather Topham Wood and hell it is intense. The topic of eating disorders is not easy to stomach at times but the book gives such a good view of what goes on in a person's mind that suffers from it. The characters are wonderful and the writing is perfect. Can highly recommend it ladies.

I have Hopeless on my to-read list, I guess since everyone is saying how great it is I will have to bump it up as well! :)

Found a new must-read for you all!! I grabbed up an ARC of Secret Maneuvers (Ex Ops, #1) by Jessie Lane for blog review, and it was SO much better than I expected!! Had everything I love in a great steamy, heart-wrenching romance, and fabulous characters with great humor to boot! Grab it up next month, I'm now stuck itching for more of this awesome series!!
