Post about the books you're devouring this month.

Are you loving them, or are they just so-so?

E | 8 comments I'm currently reading the Dark Protectors series by Rebecca Zanetti. I love this series! I am, also, listening to the Edge series by Ilona Andrews. I just started this one so I am not sure if I like it yet or not.

I liked the Edge series well enough (I read the first book and listened to the rest). Just never felt a sense of urgency in anything the characters were going through.

This has been a slow reading month for me, but I'm currently listening to Circe Circe by Madeline Miller .


message 5: by E (new)

E | 8 comments I feel the same way about the Edge series, it just doesn't seem very exciting but I like the characters. I really loved the InnKeeper Chronicles and had hoped the world building would be similar since some of the characters were in both.

Oleander  | 652 comments I am reading the last book of the Edge series. I liked the first 3 pretty well but this one is not working for me. I'm struggling to finish. I haven't tried the InnKeeper series yet. I plan to go on to the Hidden Legacy series because I see so many positive reviews about it.

@Emily - It’s pretty much the same for all the books, in my opinion. I haven’t read the Innkeeper Chronicles yet but they’re on my tbr list (to be started sooner rather than later).

@Oleander - I remember liking the last book but felt it was way too long. I highly recommend Hidden Legacy. While I only read the first three and the novella that followed, they were some of my favorite reads this year. I’m watching for the next book to be released before I continue.

Shay Hello, I just recently joined this group and am excited to hear recommendations from a community interested in the same topics as me. That being said...
Has anyone ever read "The Cruel Prince" by Holly Black? I keep seeing so much about it, but I am unsure if it is my type of book. What do you guys think?

How did you go with the 'Edge' series?
First book was less than stellar, but the next 2 were really enjoyable, the last was not for me..

Curiosity. 😺

I have seen both of these books before and have thought about adding them to my 'to read' list but i have not yet done so. Are they worth a read, and what are they really about?

Heart-shaped Box was an ok read. It took a bit for me to get into it but I’m glad I stuck with it.

Opal was disappointing. I liked the first two books a lot better. The decision making by the gang was dumb, imo, so when things ended as they did, I was mostly annoyed. However, it won’t stop me from reading the next book, as I am invested.

I ended up dnf'ing at 39%. It wasn't what I was expecting but I agree that it was a hard read, from what I did complete.

Selina | 1 comments I just finished From Blood and Ash by Jennifer Armintrout. I thought it had a slow start but at about 1/3 in it got really good and now I can’t wait for the next one.

But I started The Maidens by Alex Michaelides because I’ve been waiting for that one for a long time :)
