message 2415: by Tiffani (new)

Tiffani | 88 comments Here are some of the books I've read over the last couple of weeks: Tributary (River of Time, #3.2) by Lisa Tawn Bergren (I have my fingers crossed that the series finishes here... this book almost ruined the whole series for me), Forest Born (The Books of Bayern, #4) by Shannon Hale (very good), and Mistress of Rome (Rome, #1) by Kate Quinn (AWFUL!!! For such a good rating and discription AND cover, I was expecting more than the annoying characters {other than the gladiator, and I don't think I was ever supposed to like him :P} and the too fast-paced plot).
Now I'm reading The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride, #1) by James Patterson and I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You (Gallagher Girls, #1) by Ally Carter Have high hopes for these! :)

Maximum Ride is amazing! You will love it <3. I read I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You halfway once like in the 5th grade. Didn't really get into it maybe if I read it now that I will like it but Idk.

Yeah, I'm having a hard time getting into the I'd Tell You I Love You book too, but I'm just trying to read it to the end to see if it suddenly gets better :P. Did you ever feel like the book is mostly Cammie thinking??? I've only read around half the book, and that is what I'm noticing. It's a little annoying, but I'll tell you if it gets better :). Oh, and I noticed that you are reading Beautiful Creatures... You'll have to tell me what you think about it! I'm trying to decide if I should put it on my to-read shelf.

I only read up to like a part where she's in Washington or something. When she meets the guy she likes. I'm not that sure really didn't get into it when and It was a while back. Beautiful Creatures is a really good book. So fat it's been grate and I'm in a part that I think after the book if going to get extremely good. I'll tell you how it goes.

I did, despite myself. It held me, almost as a challenge. I write, so I tend to be very critical but Ms. Flynn is really a genius with multiple POV and gendered voicing. The ending? It ended the way it had to without resorting to stupid author tricks, which she avoided. On the other hand, it couldn't have been a completely satisfying read for me because of how uncomfortable it made me throughout. Don't go looking for redemption except in tiny almost unnoticed doses. It was, above all, a phenomenal lesson in deceit and mistaken feelings. I recommend it, but it's not a "nice beach read", or airplane read.

It was really good! I loved it just as much as the first book and yes I finished it! Those 530 pages went by way too fast! And as for the end...it's kind of a cliffhanger but nothing too bad but I still really want to read the next book, lol. I'll let you know when I put up the review...Should be this week sometime!!
