I agree- they didn't act like older college age people at all and I couldn't get drawn into their characters because they sounded like the same person the whole time.. it had really good reviews so I guess we are in the minority, but just wasn't for me. oh well- moving on :)

Oh yay!! This series is definitely in need of notice, the creepy/suspenseful dystopian storyline and the HOT sexual tension make it a must-read! So glad you enjoyed it!!

I often chalk up the oohs and aaahs over something like this to people simply not having read much better writing of similar stories, ya know? It was okay, but pales in comparison to authors who write the hell out of abuse/domestic violence stories! Like you said, moving on! LOL

 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments Just finished the Luke Complete Series (Luke, #1-5) by Cassia Leo series of 6 short stories with one left to be published. About a corporate spy that falls in love with her target. A decent series, super sexy.

I can get the majority as well; actually lately it's been okay, but I can't buy Mea Culpa from amazon which is really annoying (But I got it from smashwords, so it's no big deal anymore.) And some other Australians have bought it. Theres quite a few more, btu I can't think of them at the moment.

Oh I still have to read J.R. Ward's Fallen Angel series Tracy. I have all of the ones that are out sitting on my kindle but haven't gotten to them yet. But I grabbed Covet (The Fallen Angels, #1) by J.R. Ward on sale on Audible.com a few days ago. It was super cheap :) try checking it out if you're interested to see if it's still on sale.

Now I wonder what's happening with the BDB books on Amazon that you guys can't get them?? I've had them for ages and ages. Sorry you can't get them. If you want I can lend you mine through my Amazon kindle library. Just let me know and I'll send you an email :)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 1075 comments I finished The Moon and More by Sarah Dessen and it was good, but not great. Also finished Ashen Winter (Ashfall, #2) by Mike Mullin which was really good, I loved it!

I just went to her blog. It looks like the publishing is a kindle only ebook agreement. I can get the paperbacks from BN but not the ebook which is a bummer since I have the first two on there. At least I can get it on my phone, and darn, I may just have to buy it in paperback ;)

It's the first book I'm reading from that author. It's a long one so it should keep me busy for a while. It has pretty good reviews so I'm optimistic I'll like it.

Oh, thank you for reminding me I need to send out recs for that one!! I actually got and ARC of Escape from Paradise from the author last month, she's a friend and is just branching out into this genre and I told her I'd give it a whirl. It's absolutely outstanding, I loved it and I'm hoping everyone gives it a chance because it's going to be a huge hit with Dark Duet fans! Thank you for thinking of me, though hun!! =)

Grabbed up Octavian's Undoing, thanks for the head's up!

Laura just reminded me (Thank you!!) that I've yet to send out recs for this since it's release *bangs head on wall*, but here's the link for Escape from Paradise by Gwendolyn Field !! I know the Dark Duet fans will absolutely love this one, it's equally as dark and I think even more disturbing in many ways, and good lord trust me when I say you'll be drooling over sexy Colin!! I'll send out recs through GR this week at some point, but it's $.99 now so grab it up and give Gwendolyn's work a shot!
