Michael Tyrer (holden) | 55 comments i'm currently 80% through The Iron Daughter (The Iron Fey, #2) by Julie Kagawa and loving it i think thats around 8 five star books in a row, my next is Living in the Dark (Darkness Through the Light, #1) by Rebekah Campbell which is a read for review book which i've never attempted before then i'm onto The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden, #1) by Julie Kagawa . this iron fey series is amazing, I've never read a full series of books before, especially one that has gripped me like this series has, although i'm ready for the star dwellers after the fantastic The Moon Dwellers (The Dwellers, #1) by David Estes .

The Iron Fey series is absolutely FANTASTIC! Love it. You need to get the novellas that come in between some of this series. It gives you some of the points of reference that are discussed in the main novels, and a bit more detail about all three.

The Immortal Rules = OMG I want more! I've also read the first in her Iron Fey spin off series, The Lost Prince, which focuses on Ethan (Meagan's brother) and it was alright, definitely going to take a bit getting used to for me.

Currently I am engrossed in The Selection (still) and Call of the Herald on my kindle.

Oh yay on The Knife, David! I really loved that series. It came highly recommended from some of our group members and I always try to read those! They haven't steered me wrong yet!

Ruby Black (ruby_black) At the start, I couldn't wait for this book to end, now I wish the end never came. Alas, I finished it and now that's that.
Forever (The Wolves of Mercy Falls #3) The pace picks up in the last 200 pages.

Time to finish the Fallen series; now reading Rapture (Fallen, #4)

LoL - Trust me take your time with them :) I'm still wishing there were more books to the series.

Forever, takes forever (lol) to get into (at least for me it did), but then it hits you like a ton of bricks all at once. Can't wait to read more from Maggie Stiefvater!

Yes, I agree. I would love to have more from them. It felt unfinished.


message 376: by Bee (new)

Bee (justabluebee) I've had so many emotional reads lately, I need some I can read without thinking. I'm going to put off the other books on my list for a week or so. I really need a break from the heavy material lolz. I just can't get myself to read The Toy Sorcerer (Ancient Knowledge, #1) by Laura Hart and the other books. :P

I'm going to read The It Girl (It Girl, #1) by Cecily von Ziegesar and the rest of this series to recover. They always help.
