Yes, this was incredible and the wait has been absolute torture after that cliffhanger!!!! UGH! And I agree, her mother had me LOL so many times my stomach hurt. Her little "signatures" at the scenes were hysterical!!

One of my favorite lines from Angelfall:

"We now play a permanent game of I-am-crazier-and-scarier-than-you. And in that game, my mother is our secret weapon." =)

LOL Annie, you're all fired up. I'm a huge fan too and I've been dying to see this. I'm going tomorrow night to see it, so I guess I'll find out if I hate it.
It's funny you said you like the Twilight movies and not the books. I was the opposite, I hated the movies probably with as much passion as you feel for City of Bones movie.
I took the kids to see Percy Jackson today and I enjoyed it, but maybe it's because I haven't read the books?

LMAO! Yes, I took my kids to see Percy Jackson when it first came out and LOVED it! I've loved both movies with so much passion. But like you, I didn't read the books. I guess for me, I have to not read the books to enjoy the movie, or just read the books and forget the movies altogether. With so many movies coming out from books I love, I'm really skeptical about seeing them. That's what I get for having high expectations. lol

So the trick is to watch the movies before reading the book, that way you don't get ticked off that they butchered your favourite book. Too bad we've read most of the popular books being turned into movies! The Divergent trailers look amazing! Lets hope it's better:)

oh my god Beautiful Creatures was a total disaster! And Host was so boring I fell a sleep half way through. HG is really good. I thought Jennifer Lawrence was an excellent choice and she did really good job. Yeah, I have high hopes for the Divergent movie and I hope it will live up to the hype. Though, their Four isn't as good as mine. :D

I'm so glad too. I hate waiting for the next book, especially since I hear the cliffie is brutal. Ugh, I still have to wait a few months though. I don't even like waiting a day LOL


message 30217: by Bridget (new)

Bridget | 1517 comments After reading about Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1) by Susan Ee for nearly two pages on this thread, I just ordered it. It seems that I may have to arrange an "Annie" shelf to go along with my "Erin" shelf. Lol!! At least I know that when either of you gets on a kick like this about a book, its always that good.

YAY!!!!!! Dude, I was told from a few friends that I needed to read it, for the last year so I bought it yesterday and didn't plan on starting it until after I finished Divergent. But I just read a couple lines on my laptop and was glued to it. I didn't realize I already had it for my nook, bought it some time ago and just forgot about it. But damn, it's really freaking amazeballs! And if you love angel books, you'll love this! Or post-apocalyptic books. I hope you enjoy, Bridget! :)

Yeah waiting is the shitty part of starting new series. ugh I hate it. Oh Annie brutal is too calm word for that ending. I literally screamed when I realized there was no sequel waiting for me and it didn't even had a publication date. It breaks my heart every time I remember how it ended. Prepare yourself sweetie it's going to rip your heart out and there is nothing you can do about it. Ugh I was ready for the sequel yesterday.

this is a chapter excerpt from the World After! #fangirling

Annie Brewer (anniebrewer) | 2351 comments SHITE! I'm already wondering how it'll end. Oh dear. This is pretty intense. I've been biting my nails in nervousness and panicking a lot since I started and I'm over halfway through. Oh but how I love Raffe!!!!! Thank you for this sexy angel!

I'll read the excerpt right after I finish. And thank God you don't have *too* much longer for the sequel now! :)

LMAO, you can just make it an Annie/Erin shelf, she was actually one of my very first gals on GR and I followed her reviews around like a little lost puppy for a few months. =) We both love the same stuff, so we probably have identical shelves anyway!

Just finished Wethering The Storm (The Storm, #2) by Samantha Towle , it was a little slow at first but once it picked up I couldn't put it down!

Still working through Origin (Lux, #4) by Jennifer L. Armentrout , I'm nervous so I'm taking it slowly!! Starting an ARC of Everything I've Never Had by Lynetta Halat as my buffer book.

Amanda (mandy) | 1311 comments Started Buried Secrets by Emme Rollins . So far so good :)

Went to see TMI today. It was entertaining, but there were parts I didn't like. But overall it was okay, I would see the rest of them when the came out. Although I think the best part was the Catching Fire preview;)

So the second Percy movie is good?! I still need to see it, I love the books
