Still Reading Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things

Ooh, I love Across the Universe! It gets better and better with every book :)

Next I'm starting

Hope you enjoy Cuckoo's Calling.


Life got really busy over the last month, with university applications and school life, and I didn't have any time to read.
I'm picking books back up though, and I read

It was weird finishing a book about a month after I had first picked it up, but I enjoyed the read. Review to come, maybe.

I did't love it starting out, but the last 2 books have gotten really good! Great ending to Origin!

I didn't get into this one as much as Maguire's other books, which was a shame, because I'm a big fan of his writing! It felt a bit disjointed. I really enjoyed the Wonderland parts, and the concept was great, I just felt taken out of the story at about every chapter break.

Ohhhh, I saw part of an episode of the show The Last Kingdom, Victoria. It looked good and seems like something I would have liked. Let me know what you think! I know you share my love for historical fiction and Philippa Gregory. :)

I didn't like the first 2 that much, but ended up really enjoying the last 3. I binge read those over the summer. I couldn't devour them fast enough. ;)

Truthwitch and Glass Sword are two books I cannot wait to read.


I feel like everyone on the planet has read Truthwitch but me!!! Glass Sword I'm sooooo reading release day. I'm holding out hope beyond hope it's not second book syndrome with no action until very, very end. I loved the first so much (and was secretly, well, not soooo secretly, rooting for Maven & Mare and I still kinda am). I can't wait to see where Victoria takes it!


Don't feel bad Rachel I haven't read it yet so you are not alone. :) I pre-ordered Glass Sword so when it gets released I can stare outside waiting for it to arrive. I think it ends in a cliffhanger so we will all die a little bit together waiting for the third book. I don't know what team I am on anymore. I was destroyed by the huge reveal so I will figure out when I re-read it. haha
Wow, everyone's reading Illuminae! There is a buddy read thread, too, guys, if after you finish you want to check out the comments of those who participated:

You are rereading RQ? Oh man that last third was so emotional. I suspected what happened but mannnnnn Victoria still managed to play it just right. I still felt shocked to the core when he played the Joffrey-Cersei card and that ending battle in the arena? And all of his quotes? That's the thing I loved most about that book. Victoria made every sentence feel epic and they could all be tag lines for a book. >>> and oh gosh, you just know there will be a cliffhanger!

I'll have to check it out! :)

Very satisfying ending to the series!! What do you think of the narrator? Winter's voice was a bit annoying at times. ;)

I know! I hadn't read any of her books, and I saw this at the library, so thought I'd read it :)


Yay!! I am hoping to start that today. :)
