The Moon Dwellers is amazing, as is the The Country Saga - such an epic story c:

I haven't finished After the End (After the End #1) by Amy Plum but my eloan expired :( Put it on hold again, but could be awhile! Just way too busy to get much reading done! So far I like it, although its completely different from what I was expecting!

Reading The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass, #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas which is a bind up of the novellas for Throne of Glass. I'd already read 2, The Assassin and the Pirate Lord (Throne of Glass, #0.1) by Sarah J. Maas and The Assassin and the Desert (Throne of Glass, #0.3) by Sarah J. Maas which was SO GOOD! Last night read The Assassin and the Healer (Throne of Glass, #0.2) by Sarah J. Maas and enjoyed it :)

I need to read that! I was supposed to read that book weeks ago. :( I have a friend who's reading it. He doesn't care for the main character right now. Haha.

I finished We Were Liars by E. Lockhart last night, now I'm juggling The Chance You Won't Return by Annie Cardi and Dangerous Girls by Abigail Haas , but after finishing We Were Liars, I think I need something lighter, so I may switch to The DUFF Designated Ugly Fat Friend by Kody Keplinger and Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell or Amy and Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson . :)

Cindee | 331 comments I just finished Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and Hollow City. I loved them both, can't wait till the third book comes out, especially with an ending like it had in the 2nd book. Im now reading The Monstrumologist its super creepy. Im hoping to get past this creepy stuff so I can get into it more. But I think im only on chapter 3 or somthing, with them going to the graveyard. The writing is good, but wow, im just creeped out lol. Not sure if I will make it thru it. But so many of you loved it.

Cindee, I'm not too far in either in The Monstrumologist (The Monstrumologist, #1) by Rick Yancey . I'm creeped out as well so far. I have some other books I plan on reading first and then I'll try to get back into it. :)

I orderd the novella bind up that came out in (july?) but still havent gotten it.anyway,kinda happy sad to see the series end so dont mind waiting.

I read a couple more chapters in this book, after seeing David enter book 3 and loving the series. But all I can think as I read creepy creepy creepy lol. I hate leaving a book unfinished, it feels like betrayal lol, I dont do it often, I will even skim read a book to make it thru, but this book can't be skimmed. Think maybe a break into somthing else will work. When I got into Miss Pegerines home for Peculiar Children I thought the kids were creepy, push thru a couple of chapters and its not just their peculiar things they can do but the author wrote them with amazing personalities. And so far I like the creepy scientist better then the 12 year old boy. ...but still creepy! Lol

Ha, that's an understatement! Yeah, if you don't like creepy, I don't think a book about monster hunters will be a good fit for you LOL But the writing is SO GOOD I wish everyone could read it!

I finished the 3rd book and I'm starting the 4th :) OBSESSED!


message 9298: by Heidi (new)

Heidi | 2372 comments David that is awesome! Beware - the 4th book is quite different from the first 3 IMO. If you can believe it, it was even crazier than the first books!

Donna (donanicole) | 897 comments Lots of new books out lately. I have David Estes's books Brew and Boil on my list to read but first I am reading the Contagion series again, by Emily Goodwin. I have waited two years for the third book to come out so I have to reread the first two. It will be fast, and although she rereleased the first two, all tightened up and re-edited, I am not buying those books again, so assuming the story is the same in the first two, Contagious (The Contagium Series) by Emily Goodwin and Deathly Contagious (The Contagium #2) by Emily Goodwin . These are the old versions, already 30% done with the first one.
