If I remember right, I think everyone had said they wanted to wait a week or two after it was out. I don't have my copy yet, but should be here by the end of the week I think. So maybe next weekend?

Donna (donanicole) | 897 comments So I got my laptop from Costco and I called them and even though it is 4 years old he helped me.....for 3 hours. He said I had a huge amount of mal ware on my computer. 3000! We got them all off. I can't tell you how happy I am!! I now have software to detect malware.

I had to put the other books I was reading aside as I read rather slowly and I've been looking forward to this one too much. I wasn't crazy about the second book, but so far this one's great! :)


message 9766: by Alison (new)

Alison Morquecho (thebookishcamper) | 787 comments so decided to put a hold on the young elites and start my reread of the darkest minds. I will be busy and have been busy these last few weeks. I like the young elites but it hasn't grabbed me yet. I can put it down easily

Excellent plan because In the Afterlight (The Darkest Minds, #3) by Alexandra Bracken was an amazing end to the series. I think I loved the first book the most - although I really, really liked Never Fade. The last one is my least favourite because of the basic conflict - but it's still a fantastic end to the series.

I liked that series, Russel, although it wasn't my favorite angel series, it was still enjoyable!


Rose (The_Calm_Reader) (roselittlebookowl75) | 1372 comments Just finished Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling !!! SO good!!!!!!! Loved it!!! I just love Sirius Black!

Choices, choices. I can't decide what to read next. I'm debating between The Darkest Minds (The Darkest Minds, #1) by Alexandra Bracken , Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1) by Sarah J. Maas , or Timebound (The Chronos Files, #1) by Rysa Walker ! Somebody help me choose please!!!!!!!!!!!

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
I vote The Darkest Minds. Maybe you'll get caught up in time to join our buddy read for the final book!

That was the one I was leaning towards Jenny!

Oh really? Which angel series is your favorite?


message 9783: by Jen (new)

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments Currently listening to Through the Zombie Glass (White Rabbit Chronicles, #2) by Gena Showalter - which is light YA and I love so far. Very much in the spirit of the Soul Screamers (Rachel Vincent), Unearthly (Cynthia Hand) or Angel Series (L. A. Weatherly). It's zombies but one of those great YA series that doesn't take itself too seriously, just lots of fun well done.
Getting ready to buddy read The Iron Jackal (Tales of the Ketty Jay, #3) by Chris Wooding . This Ketty Jay series by Chris Wooding is SO good! You guys have to give it a try. Especially Retribution Falls (Tales of the Ketty Jay, #1) by Chris Wooding on audio - I think it may well be the best narration I've ever heard!

Storm Arashi (stormarashi) | 1130 comments The One (The Selection, #3) by Kiera Cass I just finished it another all nighter, I know one thing I'm buying when Christmas comes around...The entire Selection series.

Just finished The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden, #1) by Julie Kagawa . Pretty awesome read, will definitely be reading the whole series soon :)

Now reading Graduation Day (The Testing, #3) by Joelle Charbonneau , very mixed reviews on this one, but I loved the first two books!


message 9788: by Heather (new)

Heather Just finished Glass Houses (The Morganville Vampires, #1) by Rachel Caine and I was shocked by the ending but loved the whole book so none the less I am continuing the series with The Dead Girls' Dance (The Morganville Vampires, #2) by Rachel Caine now :)


message 9789: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 957 comments Sadly, after spending over a week to reach page 70, I decided to give up on The Dark Hills Divide (The Land of Elyon, #1) by Patrick Carman :/ The synopsis sounded so interesting, but that far in and nearly nothing had happened. So sad.

I started Theodosia and the Serpents of Chaos (Theodosia Throckmorton, #1) by R.L. LaFevers (my last library book) a couple days ago, and I'm liking it so far. It's pretty light and kind of funny, but still interesting enough so far.

YAY! So happy you liked it :) The sequel is AWESOME!!! Can't wait to read the final book. Maybe we can read it together when you read it. No big hurry on my end or anything. Enjoy Graduation Day!

I think either Unearthly (Unearthly, #1) by Cynthia Hand or Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1) by Susan Ee . Also really loved Illuminate (Gilded Wings, #1) by Aimee Agresti
