message 356: by Sherrie (new)

Sherrie | 1212 comments I bought all the books in the Dwellers series for my Kindle. The Moon Dwellers is up next on my to read list.


message 357: by DeAnna (new)

DeAnna (dee84812) | 671 comments So, the first 5 Mortal Instruments books are bundled and on sale for the Kindle for $19.99, but I don't know if I'll like them. Should I splurge?

Also, LOTR is on sale for $9 for all 3 books, but again, not sure if I'll like them. I have gift cards, so should I buy these box sets? Help!


message 358: by Megan (new)

Megan Thomason | 32 comments DeAnna, I think it'd definitely be worth the $19.99 for Mortal Instruments... I absolutely love the world of the Shadowhunters. I'm not a huge fan of Clary, the main female character (she annoys me a bit), but the rest is excellent. I prefer the first 3 books; book 4 is still good; and book 5 is on my phone and ready to read (but in a pile of 'sequels where I read the rest long enough ago that it's a little hard to get back into it.'
LOTR is a classic. Growing up I preferred the Hobbit, but a whole lot of fantasy stems from LOTR and worth a read. Just slower than a lot of modern fantasy.

DeAnna (dee84812) | 671 comments Okay, I bought TMI. I hope I like it as that was a big one-time Kindle purchase! lol I didn't bother with LOTR. It doesn't sound like my thing.

Agree completely both TMI and the TID prequel series are amazing!! And yeah LOTRs my favorite series of all time so I'm slightly biased!

message 374: by Bee (new)

Bee (justabluebee) My boyfriend bought Phoenix Rising (Maggie Henning & The Realm #1) by Lisa Morgan for me on Ebay because I can't buy it somewhere else. Sweet of him isn't it?
What can I say? I have a weakness for books/movies/series were someone has powers. Especially if that power is an element. And Fire always has been my favorite element so yeah. This book kind of is a dream come true, lol. (So yes, I love X-men and I literally cried when a friend said that she doesn't know it. Can you even believe that? Oh and I love Avatar: The legend of Aang too. I'm such a geek lol)
