I'm really enjoying it, Harlee! I loved the cover too which is what made me pick it up at the book store. I was able to get it from my elibrary though so didn't buy it. But I may have to. I'm zooming right through.

I finished reading
and I LOVED it, great conclusion! Also finished
and although at times I was a bit confused by the writing, overall I enjoyed it. It was a very dark story, and very unique.
Still reading
and I think I'm going to start

@Teresa I have been wanting to read the first book for a while now so I thought this would be a good time as I am reading more historical fictions right now. There are a lot of books for me to catch up on.

I know its the worst. luckily the second book is soon out :):)

I'm setting aside reading
to read
. I just started it, but I'm already looking forward to the second book. Yeah I know, I just wish there's book two.

"Outlander is next up on audio for me. :)"
Wow Karen! Outlander is a really loooooong audiobook! I love the narrator (Davina Porter)and think if I would not have had her narrating I would not have finished it. It needed some serious editing IMO. While I didn't hate it by any means I think if they would have cut it down by a few hundred pages it would have been something I loved.

I went to write more of my book last night... couldn't get off tumblr for the life of me. still kind of annoyed about it xD
In other news, I'm still liking the Night Circus, and Mastiff is getting interesting (both at the 25% mark)
And planning to start Angelfall tonight!

I'm thinking I'm going to have to make a rule that I can't so much as open an internet browser, unless I've done a certain amount of writing first.

I bounce back and forth between GR and tumblr and in the process get neither reading nor writing accomplished.
@Michelle @Karen I'm reading Confess by Colleen Hoover but next up after that is Outlander!!! I'm doing a buddy read of Outlander with a friend of mine on Bookstagram.

*Nods in understanding* Sounds very familiar!
I'm having a bit more luck with reading though, since I'm not very good at navigating the net on my Kindle, so I can turn off the computer to force myself to get some reading done. Unfortunately, I need the computer to write, so I can't use that trick to get writing done.
This isn't like me, actually... Usually I'm really good about getting in a decent chunk of writing each day, and making it more of a priority than social media sites. I'm blaming the recent move, and hoping I'll be back to normal soon.

@Heidi, I've picked up the book several times at the bookstore but just couldn't get there. You're the one that suggested the audio. ;) So I bought it when it was on sale for $7 or $8. I listened to the first few chapters and it did seem so much better for me that way! So yup. I am ready for the 33 hours plus! I'm going to finish up the Benny Imura series which I've been marathoning. I should be done in another week or so.

I really agree with you here. It could really benefit from being a couple hundred pages shorter.

And to think that they just keep getting bigger and bigger as the books progress, geez! LOL! I liked the first Outlander book well enough but that was one really loooonnggg book. Thank goodness for audios!

Outlander was long for sure, but I'm telling you book 5 is by far the one that could do with a major edit.
Karen wrote: "How many Outlander books are there?"
6-7 I think. I think its supposed to be a 9 book series.

Currently reading
The Last Lover It is very weird and trippy, reminiscent of Abrir Los Ojos or "Open Your Eyes" which became Vanilla Sky in movie form.
