Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Lis what did you think of Horizon? It took me a long time to get into it. I kept putting it down, but once I was into it I loved it. I was happy with the ending.

I started Sandman Slim (Sandman Slim, #1) by Richard Kadrey -- it grabbed me right from the beginning. I have several GR and in real life friends who rave about this series.

I am listening The Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling and enjoying it.

I had exactly the same reaction. I grabbed it soon after it was released and just couldn't stick with it. I think part of me didn't want it to end because its a really good story with such "real" characters, warts and all... Then I was browsing my DNFs and once I got to the beaters trying to swim the river I could not put it down. I couldn't believe I put it off for so long, what a great wrap up and emotional ending. I went back and re-read the beginning. I think I just didn't care about all the new island characters. Just kinda choppy in the beginning.

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 1179 comments I've finished Claimed (Brides of the Kindred, #1) by Evangeline Anderson Pretty When She Kills (Pretty When She Dies #2) by Rhiannon Frater Magic Burns (Kate Daniels, #2) by Ilona Andrews Witches of East End (The Beauchamp Family, #1) by Melissa de la Cruz lately


message 1162: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Lis, that was it exactly for me. The change in points of view were not done well in the beginning, I didn't care about the island characters nor did I want to read from the point of view of what's his name's daughter. But once the beaters were swimming -- it took off for me too. I loved how Sophie took the hard path, she didn't make anything easy or simple. It was so real. I love how she writes. I also really love her crime fiction series, it is funny and very real:

A Bad Day for Sorry (Bad Day, #1) by Sophie Littlefield A Bad Day for Pretty (Bad Day #2) by Sophie Littlefield A Bad Day for Scandal (Bad Day, #3) by Sophie Littlefield A Bad Day for Mercy A Crime Novel by Sophie Littlefield


message 1163: by Lis (last edited Oct 09, 2012 04:27PM) (new)

Lis | 4037 comments Regina, very true her characters are real. Completely different stories, but my favs Stacia Kane and Diana Gabaldon give you real characters to enjoy too. Didn't really click in my head right away until now, but probably why I liked it so well. I will have to try her mystery series out too.

Sandra | 25908 comments I read Master of Smoke (Mageverse, #7) by Angela Knight today. I'm amazed how underrated the Mageverse series is. Not high art but definitely worth reading.


Valerie ~ Val Hall ~ | 9661 comments Funny, I read the first 2 books and totally forgot about it.

Yet another series I picked up at Border's liquidation and have yet to read! I really need to get to work on developing that clone of myself that can go to work and do laundry so that I have more time to read. And with the money I make selling them to other readers, I'll be able to buy even more books!

Sandra | 25908 comments Reading Avenger's Angel (The Lost Angel, #1) by Heather Killough-Walden for Bingo. I know it's had mixed reviews and I'm a bit ambivalent about it as well. The MCs just don't seem to mesh well at all so far.


Valerie ~ Val Hall ~ | 9661 comments Listening to The Maze Runner (Maze Runner, #1) by James Dashner and Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna, #1) by Kendare Blake in audiobook. Starting City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1) by Cassandra Clare for Bingo.

I loved the Maze Runner Valerie.


Valerie ~ Val Hall ~ | 9661 comments I like it too but I'm having issues listening to it. I have an iPhone and using Overdrive (with my public library). It's not working, can't transfer it to my phone. Listening from my laptop is ok but not great. Anyone knows how to make it work?


message 1185: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments Valerie, are you downlading Mp3s or WMAs? If it is a WMA, you need to download it to your computer (through the overdrive console) and then transfer to your iphone by connecting your iphone, opening up iTunes and opening up the overdrive console -- and then choosing to transfer from the overdrive console. WMAs need to be converted, that is why.


message 1186: by Regina (new)

Regina (reginar) | 2883 comments I am reading a new book/series by one of my fave authors Sophie Littlefield Blood Bond by Sophie Littlefield and I am really liking it.

I am also listening to Skinwalker (Jane Yellowrock, #1) by Faith Hunter and enjoying it.

Christine | 850 comments I finished the audio of Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs (Jane Jameson, #1) by Molly Harper and I enjoyed it so much that I jumped right into Nice Girls Don't Date Dead Men (Jane Jameson, #2) by Molly Harper . This is such a pleasant surprise of a series for me. And so funny, without going overboard on the humor. I'm loving it.

message 1192: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments I shouldn't complain, I've had a reasonable run lately. I think that I was just expecting too much and this was just so disappointing, when it could been so much better.

Cool! I love the idea that I have a longish series to get into. LOL Lis, that is a lot of books. The Dublin book interests me.

Sandra | 25908 comments Well I couldn't finish Avenger's Angel (The Lost Angel, #1) by Heather Killough-Walden so I had to do a lot of rearranging of challenges. Luckily I had to do a re-read of Blood of the Demon (Kara Gillian, #2) by Diana Rowland this month, so all is good for Bingo and my sanity.
