Thanks for the info. Seems like a long time between books. I definitely read Ms. Perergrine's well over a year ago and it had been out for awhile.

Finished reading Breaking Nova (Nova, #1) by Jessica Sorensen and it was one of the most depressing NA books I've read. I did enjoy it, but it was very sad. I am looking forward to the sequel, though!

Also finished Briar Rose by Jane Yolen which was just an AMAZING fairy tale re-telling combined with the horrors of the Holocaust. Really loved it, great read!


message 5109: by Catherine (new)

Catherine | 13 comments I am currently reading Allegiant by Veronica Roth. So far, and I am about 2/3 way through, I am enjoying but am still waiting for the "O. M. G!!,, this is the BEST EVER reading experience of my life yet" feeling to Hit Me as did instantly, with Divergent & Insurgent. I must admit, I'm anxious that it isn't gonna happen!! :-(


message 5110: by Zoe (new)

Zoe Cannon (zoecannon) I finally bought Free Souls (Mindjack Trilogy, #3) by Susan Kaye Quinn the other day and finished up the Mindjack Trilogy. Such a good ending. Now I'm reading Mindjack Origins Collection by Susan Kaye Quinn .

Finished reading Slated (Slated, #1) by Teri Terry and I really liked it! It was a good sci-fi/dystopian read. David and Karen, I think you guys would like it!

I really liked it! I went out and got Fractured right after and it was even better. I'm looking forward to the third book!

I liked that one too. It was slow going at the beginning, but got really good by the end. My only complaint was that the ending wasn't big enough. It just kind of... ended.


message 5122: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn Broad (katelynb) I'm listening to The Elite (The Selection, #2) by Kiera Cass at the moment. Anyone else get thrown off when the same narrator of another series is narrating your current book? I keep thinking I'm listening to Everneath (Everneath, #1) by Brodi Ashton again haha.

I disagree with the ending...I thought that was pretty cool, and I was waiting for it to happen! It did leave me wanting to read the sequel, as its a bit of a cliffhanger!

Yes Katelyn, that happens to me a lot and I will have to force myself to remember what book I'm on.

Lauren Stoolfire | 2047 comments I just finished The Runaway King (The Ascendance Trilogy, #2) by Jennifer A. Nielsen which I absolutely adored. I couldn't imagine it would be better than The False Prince (The Ascendance Trilogy, #1) by Jennifer A. Nielsen but it was! By the way, The Runaway King has been nominated for the Goodreads Choice Awards Best Middle Grade and Children's! :)

Now I'm moving on to The Dream Thieves (The Raven Cycle, #2) by Maggie Stiefvater ! :)
