Finished Midnight Frost (Mythos Academy, #5) by Jennifer Estep and it was definitely the best out of the series so far. I actually kind of liked the story without Logan around every second!

Started rereading The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus, #1) by Rick Riordan today. This is one of my fave Rick Riordan's books, and I'm really enjoying the reread!

You should definitely check it out! It's an excellent Gothic Horror series! I'm just starting the fourth and final book of the series called The Final Descent which was just released last month! The Final Descent (The Monstrumologist #4) by Rick Yancey

Ok thanks :) After Ashes and Gone series I'm pretty immune to gore now lol!

THe Infernal Devices is just AMAZING! They get better and better with each book, until the last one is just poetry! The characters are wonderful and the storyline is heartbreaking!

The Infernal Devices series is spectacular! A lot of people who weren't such big fans of The Mortal Instruments series really enjoyed TID. Happy reading!

If you're listening - then don't be off-put by Angel. Prince is better and Princess is flat-out amazing. I didn't like the narrator for Angel at all. But Ed Westwick and Heather Lind do Prince (wonderful combination) and then Daniel Sharman does Princess. A-mazing. Amazing.

I am SO glad that you are going to read The Hourglass Door!!!


message 4978: by Zino (new)

Zino (goodreadscomuser_zino) I'm glad a lot of you like The Infernal Devices, I'm feeling more positive about it now :) and the audiobook I'm listening to is different, it's done by one female narrator who's voice I'm enjoying. But sadly no Ed Westwick for me :(

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
I finished my reread of The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus, #1) by Rick Riordan and loved it! Also read The Spindlers by Lauren Oliver which was a really fun children's book! Also read Hero (Woodcutter Sisters #2) by Alethea Kontis this weekend, and really enjoyed it! I'd been waiting to read that one for a long while! Just finished Obsidian (Lux, #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout which was a cross between Twilight and I Am Number Four. I liked the sci-fi parts of it the best, and the MC, Katy, was a book blogger, which was really fun! The story grew on me by the end, and I think I will continue with the series!

While I enjoyed Obsidian, I loved the other books, each one more than the other. Keep reading! :)

I finished Loki's Wolves (The Blackwell Pages, #1) by K.L. Armstrong last night, and I really enjoyed it! It made me think of the Percy Jackson series, but with Norse mythology. Wonderful illustrations as well!
