it took everything I had to finish the Lost Symbol earlier. 2 stars. Boring and anticlimactic and predictable and disappointing after Angels & Demons and Da Vinci Code. I'm hoping Inferno will be better.
I was having trouble staying interested in it so I've read two other books lol. It's sad because by the end of Splintered I was an absolute mess with feelings but now I'm having trouble remembering why I liked the characters and caring about what's going on. :/

That's probably a good idea. It's been a few months and I'm forgetting some of the minor details from the end.

It's one of my favorite series'
I have been soo busy these last few weeks. With getting our book club ready for first meeting now vbs. It's been non stop lol. So very little reading. Gonna finish rebel Belle tonight and then hopefully make a big dent in dust and decay. :)

Well I really like it so far. Thanks for recommending it:)
Y'all should read
It's really good! I read it back in April and absolutely loved it! I can't remember if it's out in English yet, but it'll come out this year!
Darn it ... nothing. I'm mid-way through two books and can't find a free minute to read. Oh wait. I could stop using social media! ;-)
Yes. The storied life of A. J. Fickery is definitely a great read... Jenny is right on track..
Rereading Shatter Me so I can finally continue the series. I've had the second and third books for months lol!
Had to set aside Ready Player One. My borrow time at the library ended. I'm far too social on vacations and I should've known I wouldn't be able to time commit. So, back on the wait list I go. I will be starting The Girl On The Train now. I was number 346 on the wait list for this one so definitely need to make sure I read it before my loan expires!

Good point, Storm. If I shave a few hours out at night, I'd have plenty of reading time. I must re-think my strategy.
Speaking of the night hours, I was up til 1am finishing
and I regret nothing. Great ending to an incredible series. I would love a novella though, as an epilogue of sorts -- what happened to Cam and Hayden and Bam and Grace and Argent and everyone? sigh.
I have to stop reading this thread. I keep adding more books to my to read list LOL as if it's not long enough. There are only so many days of summer vacation left.

I have books on there that will be released in 2017.

Gosh, now I'm struggling to decide whether or not to read it as I wasn't a huge fan of Shadow and Bone. Hmmm

I finished
It was better than book one, imo, but while I liked both, I loved neither. The premise of the series is really interesting though, and so I read on.Up next,

It is good! I finally got the second one recently. Had to special order it so I'm re-reading the first one. The second book cover is even better.

Oh, wow. Yeah that cover is fantastic. I would want to read it without a description haha.

I'm hoping it lives up to the cover. The first book was amazing when I read it before and is still amazing this time round.

I'm halfway through. I'm volunteering at the Pan Am Games so I have no time to read, but I'll pick it back up on Monday probably. Would you like me to start a buddy read thread?
Gah, so many great books everyone! I've been insanely busy trying to get everything done at work so I can take a nice relaxing vacation next week. I've had no time to read OR be on social media. If I can survive the next few days, then I'll have 11 days of nothing but reading! And NO internet!
I've been filling up ereaders! I have
. Sounds like I need to read that one!
David, I didn't love Shadow and Bone but did enjoy
