So far, I like Nym and Ro. They are great characters and Rowan is soo much fun. So we think Nym is a dragon or just the "True Sacrifice" or is she both? What do we think about Tim? I am not sure I like this vampire yet. I still still making decisions on the doctor and the teachers. What do you think of the book so far?


Karen  ⚜Mess⚜ I'm done with it. lol


Karen  ⚜Mess⚜ I don't want to say much on my views of this book. I don't want to discourage anyone else from reading it.

But if the whole idea of a group read is for everyone to post their good and/or bad views of the book, I will.

I see what you are saying, it is up to you if you want to give your opinion. I like to make my own decisions about books and sometimes my opinions are not with the majority. My thinking was the group read was to discuss the books however you feel comfortable. I know no one in this group would just "slam" a book for no reason so I don't mind opinions. You do what you feel comfortable with. Thanks for giving it a try either way! :)

Has anyone else started any of the group reads? How far along are you? Any thoughts about the books you are reading?


message 12: by Dylan (new)

Dylan I have this book on my to-read list now. Seems like a great suggestion. I am currently reading a lot of paranormal romance books.

Have you tried Kate Daniels series Magic Bites or the Otherworld series by Yasmine Galenorn? Witchling I really enjoyed both series. They are paranormal romance. What kinds do you like? I am always looking for new ideas.

Well I finished Flesh and Fire by Tuesday Cross, and I enjoyed it. I think the ending was not as good as the rest of the book but it was only book 1. What do think think Nym's role is in this book? What did you think of Marcus?


Karen  ⚜Mess⚜ I think the author was going for a combination of Harry Potter and Twilight.

I'm only part way in and so far really like the Marcus character. I'm hoping the book gets a little more into his psyche. And, I agree with Karen, my first thought was Harry Potter - then, Twilight. She's combined both pretty well and the way she describes Nym's magical aura is quite beautiful. I'm guessing her role is ultimately to start another war - bringing back the dragons and reigning peace down on the world because of her love affair with a vampire... the two of them testing their love and conquering all to be together. Reading the comments above, book one in this series is not getting close to that ending. So now I'm curious ... I shall have to read faster!

Maximus Adano | 2 comments Hi I am new to the group. Is the group read books chosen monthly or quarterly?

Quarterly---but you can always make a suggestion. We have grown as a group since we last voted!


message 20: by Steve (new)

Steve Maxwell (goodreadscomstevem) Just finished it. Fantasy isn't my favourite genre but thoroughly enjoyed it. Now for the wait for book 2.
