I need to get to these, I'd heard a lot about them and bumped them up, but others kept getting in the way!
Okay finished

Yeah Laura I was so excited to finally get to it since like you I'd heard so many good things about it and I'd had it on my TBR list for a long time. But sadly, no, it was not very good at all. At least for me. And compared to all of the great ones we've read and the piles still left to get to, nope, this one fell way short for me. Most of the book was spent on the 2 MCs sniffing around each other! And not even great lusting :( I'm so over spending energy on mediocre books when there's the promise of great ones to be had :)

I so need to start on all the great Kristen Ashley books. I have them all sitting in my kindle waiting their turn. Plan on starting The Unfinished Heroes & Dream Men series next month :)

That's the one thing I dislike about being a blogger, the idea that I need to push through the bad ones because they were given free for review. I do miss being able to just chuck it and say 'nah' when the need strikes me.
Mod
Kristen Ashley is new to me so I thought I'd start with these books first.Ive hrard nothing but great things about all of he..."I'll be interested in seeing what you think of her writing. I tried out three of her books (across 2 series), and I got progressively more and more irritated by her characters that everyone seems to love. Seriously, 2 were almost DNFs and they have well above 4.0 ratings, I just don't get it. Maybe her writing just isn't for me, but I look forward to seeing your reviews!

I totally love the Under The Never Sky dystopian Laura and can't wait for the last book
to be released :)

Winterton Blue - started very slowly but now about half way and it's getting better.
Laura wrote: "I bought the Unfinished Hero books and Kristen Ashley is new to me so I thought I'd start with these books first.Ive hrard nothing but great things about all of he..."I've got all of her books Laura and I'm hoping they're good too. Have heard so many great things, but who knows since so many mediocre books get great reviews *sigh*
Mod

Oh, another series I need to get back to!! This one and
I am itching to continue, but I may pull a Laura and wait until they're all out.

Yup Erin I have this one sitting nice in my kindle too LOL! I holding out until they're all released just like Laura. Lord knows we have enough books to read in the meantime :)

kind of read
, I mainly just skimmed it until the end, it was just a bit to YA for me.now reading
which im liking ALOT more, its really interesting. so far i'v had trouble putting it down!!
Mod
No doubt!! There are definitely some series I can't wait for, but it's a great idea given there are so many that have books months or a year apart.
just started reading the mortal instruments: city of bones. so far so good.
Reading
so good and hilarious to boot :-D
I have never cried so hard as I am with this book, tissues have been right beside me throughout!! Sisterhood Everlasting
Laura wrote: "I bought the Unfinished Hero books and Kristen Ashley is new to me so I thought I'd start with these books first.Ive hrard nothing but great things about all of he..."I really like her, some it is predictable but I still enjoy it. She writes really sexy Alpha men. I would strongly recommend reading the Dream Man series before going to Own the Wind but you don't have to.
Erin wrote: "Laura wrote: "I bought the Unfinished Hero books and Kristen Ashley is new to me so I thought I'd start with these books first.Ive hrard nothing but great things a..."I liked
and
but didn't care for
. Haven't read the other series, but heard the dream man series was good. I've been meaning to try it.
Finished
, loved it, and
it was good, but not as good as I was expecting. Anyway, now I'm onto

hopefully!
I just finished

Finished
LOVED IT! Starting

Sorry it didn't impress, I'll at least read it just because it's Samantha's. I got my copy of Wethering in the mail today, I'm SO dying to read it now but I'm in the middle of another one I can't put down. Hope it's better for you than ITD was!
If I Should Die was AMAZEBALLLS!!! Love that series
book 4 in the Michael Scott Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series.
I need help. Should I start the Divergent series or Under the Never Sky? Which is better? Honestly I don't like this genre at all, so I'm just curious.
Divergent was Fantastic, not read the other one but the Divergent series is soo good and the last one comes out in a couple of months!
Annie wrote: "I need help. Should I start the Divergent series or Under the Never Sky? Which is better? Honestly I don't like this genre at all, so I'm just curious."O.M.G. Annie! They are up there on my favorites list. Gosh - which is better? Honestly, they are both great. I think Divergent > UNS but only slightly. They are different than each other. You really need to read them (Four vs Perry vs Roar... sigh)- plus they're fast reads! Enjoy!
Thanks ladies! Donna, I'll definitely give both a shot. I have both books sitting on my shelf forever. Did you rate 'em both 5 stars? Are they as good as THG? Love that series! I read Matched/Crossed. I just got bored with dystopia. But I'm trying to mix up my reading so I don't get bored of NA.

Divergent, Divergent, Divergent!!! I love UtNS too but Divergent is better.

Honestly, I liked Divergent better than THG. I'm not a fan of Matched either. These books are way better. Just to let you know how much better: my hubby actually read both series and is readily anticipating both new releases. ummm, from the guy that doesn't read! I think they are both both on my favorites list - & 5 stars... you'll love them. (I hope!)
Wow! That's awesome! I love guys who read. It's hot. LOL! Okay well crap! I wish I could read both. I wish I had 2 sets of eyes. GAH! Eeeenie meenie miney moe.....
I'm literally about to start reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan. I've read The Fault In Our Stars by John Green and loved it, and it prompted me to go on a buying spree.I brought Looking For Alaska, Paper Towns and Will Grayson, Will Grayson. I haven't read the other books yet but I'm about to start reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson as I said.
Any thoughts on this book or just John Green's books in general? Is it just me who has fallen in love with him?!

I just felt it made her more sympathetic. She is kind of a bitch in Sins and Needles lol

um....both, but if you don't like this genre at all then why bother with either? Under the Never Sky was my favorite of the two and I have heard that the second one in that series is even better than the first ( I just got it though so I have not read it yet) and it is a shorter, faster read than Divergent with a little more original plotline IMO, but Divergent has a little more action and suspense and I really liked Four so it is kind of a toss up for me :)
Annie wrote: "I need help. Should I start the Divergent series or Under the Never Sky? Which is better?

I'm being fussed at for not having read it either, so im going to read it this weekend. I've had it sitting on my bookshelf for months. It's time I get to it.
