YW :) I grabbed it on audio, too, even though I just read it...others said the audio was good, and since it was on sale, I thought, what the heck!

Heidi | 2372 comments The audio for the The Storied Life is supposed to be good. I should be getting my copy from the library soon

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 957 comments Just finished Midnight for Charlie Bone I really liked it, but can't go so far as to say "loved it". I am intrigued by the rest of the series, though.

Up next, some comics reading Bone, Vol. 8: Treasure Hunters while I decide what novel to read next.

Just finished Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley Another 5 star read that I recommend! Especially to fans of Laini Taylor, the style was similar, and this is a very unique fantasy! Loved it!!

I loved the Winner's Curse!


message 13658: by Michelle (new)

Michelle I loved it too. I bought the second book without even starting the first one which shows a lot of faith in the people who loved this book. I was really hoping I would love it too.

Caitlin (caitlinsiem) | 409 comments Just finished: All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven. I have never cried so hard or so much over a book in my life. The book is spectacular and it's so well done but it is HARD.


Now starting: The Selection by Kiera Cass. I own all of the books that are out so far, seemed like I should actually read them!

[bookcover:Wings|5056084], I've read this one and LOVED it! I've also heard good things about Bright Young Things.


message 13672: by Caedy (new)

Caedy  Eries (karida) | 151 comments @Caitlin, All the Bright Places is on my TBR list, and good to know I will have to read it with tissues handy. I've read the first three books in The Selection series, the only one I still need to read is the newest one, The Heir.

Currently I am devouring Shatter Me (Shatter Me, #1) by Tahereh Mafi on my kindle on this horribly rainy day.

Omg David I despera want to read Golden Son but I'm trying to hold off until it's closer to the release date for book 3 so that the wait won't kill me LOL! But it's so hard! Especially when I read such great comments :) so glad you loved it.


message 13674: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 957 comments Just finished Bone, Vol. 8 Treasure Hunters (Bone, #8) by Jeff Smith and am mad at myself for getting to one of the greater comic series I've ever read so late in life.

Up next I'll either read Bone, Vol. 9 Crown of Horns (Bone #9) by Jeff Smith (the final book in the Bone series, not counting the 2 prequels and 1 companion book(I'll be reading those as well)) or Girl of Nightmares (Anna, #2) by Kendare Blake

Yay, David!! Sooooo good!! I have the audio so will do a reread by audio about a month before Morning Star (Red Rising Trilogy, #3) by Pierce Brown releases. Can't wait!!


message 13676: by Caitlin (new)

Caitlin (caitlinsiem) | 409 comments @Caedy - definitely need tissues for All The Bright Places. It's hard but oh so amazing.


message 13677: by Caitlin (new)

Caitlin (caitlinsiem) | 409 comments Finished: The Selection by Kiera Cass. Quick read. I've read so many insanely amazing books lately that I enjoyed this but didn't find it spectacular.

Jumping right into The Elite by Kiera Cass.

This Q&A is REALLY good. And the three signed ARCs as prizes doesn't hurt either!

Caedy  Eries (karida) | 151 comments I don't know what is wrong with me today, I can't seem to get into any of my books. I know better than to fight it, but I think I might go ahead and start the audio of The Moon Dwellers (The Dwellers, #1) by David Estes and see if I can clear the funk.
Currently reading:
Digital: The Society by William Wilde
Physical: The Tiger's Wife by Téa Obreht


message 13687: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 4472 comments I finnished reading Iris Gower's Potters/Firebird series (I called it both, because it appears to be known by both, depending on where you look it up). It wasn't too bad, but I didn't think too much of it to be honest. I only read it in the first place because the first book in the series is my Mother's favourite book, and the series is set in my hometown, so the first two books worked for a reading challenge I'm doing on another group, and once I started the series, I figured I might as well finnish it.

Anyway, I'm now reading "Evolution" (the second book in Kate Wrath's "E" series)... Which I'm loving so far.

Ohmygosh, so many great insights!! Loving the Q&A! And Scott is exactly the same in person as he is on the video. He has sooooooo much energy! I'm so happy I got to meet him at ComiCon. The ARC's cover is a very limited edition and the only time they'll be used. So many people are trying to get their hands on them. So whoever wins them will have something very special! Good luck to everyone!

Caitlin (caitlinsiem) | 409 comments Finished The Elite by Kiera Cass. This was a frustrating book. I haven't quite figured out if I like that about it or not.

Without wasting any time, I'm jumping into The One. Just gonna keep plowing through. My brain is getting no reprieve.
