Donna (donanicole) | 897 comments Oh, and I am reading a Kindle First book called The Last Girl The Last Girl (The Dominion Trilogy, #1) by Joe Hart which is a really good dystopian book! I recommend it. Well written, good story about how baby girls are only born one in a hundred million. It is about one girl named Zoey. I am almost finished with it. The first in a series.

Thanks for the info! I found it on Kindle First and grabbed it :) There are several good choices for Kindle First this month, but this does look really good!

Oh awesome, Donna!! I hope to finish this one tonight! I've been overwhelmed with work this week and about to head into the office for another 5 or 6 hours today. Boo! I've had no time for reading or social media this week at all. :(

Lauren B (saussage1994) | 19 comments A couple of days ago I pre-ordered Glass Sword (Red Queen, #2) by Victoria Aveyard and A Gathering of Shadows (A Darker Shade of Magic, #2) by V.E. Schwab .

At the same time I also ordered Me Before You (Me Before You, #1) by Jojo Moyes as I've seen people talking (and sobbing) about it a lot.

message 7240: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments How is Red Queen? I've heard some mixed things and still don't know if I want to read it.


Donna (BookDragonGirl) (bookdragongirl) Yay Karen!! Great minds think alike when choosing books!! :D


Donna (BookDragonGirl) (bookdragongirl) Ooh you have a great haul as well Hannah!!!


message 7243: by Harlee (new)

Harlee | 1583 comments @Daniel I really liked it. I can understand why people may not have thought it was too unique or nothing special but I liked the world, the main character, and the end surprised me. I originally gave it five stars but the longer I've thought about it I think it was more of a very strong four.

My recent haul from Book Outlet:

The Program (The Program, #1) by Suzanne Young The Treatment (The Program, #2) by Suzanne Young The Remedy (The Program, #0.5) by Suzanne Young Dust & Decay (Rot & Ruin, #2) by Jonathan Maberry Bits & Pieces (Rot & Ruin, #5) by Jonathan Maberry Out of the Easy by Ruta Sepetys Heir of Fire (Throne of Glass, #3) by Sarah J. Maas We Were Liars by E. Lockhart

Most of these I've actually read. I haven't read The Program trilogy yet. I bought it and the Benny Imura books because Suzanne Young and Jonathan Maberry will be at the Tuscon Book Festival! Also bought Out of the Easy cuz Ruta will be there, and my current book I own is still traveling around the world! I decided it was worth $4 to buy another to have it signed! And then I still hadn't bought Heir of Fire to complete my Sarah J Maas collection, and it was only $5 in hardback!! A no brainer. And I also loved We Were Liars and decided I wouldn't mind owning it :)

Oh one more: Dorothy Must Die (Dorothy Must Die, #1) by Danielle Paige I ordered used from Amazon and send directly to Karen's house, which has arrived. Danielle Paige will also be at the festival.


Donna (BookDragonGirl) (bookdragongirl) Jenny, I have The Program on my Kindle and have been wanting to get to it. Nice haul...so exciting to get new books :)
