Melissa Baez Perfect name.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Thanks :-P

I think you can add books as you see fit and we can vote on them to figure out what we want to read next.


message 3: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Perfect. Buddy readings


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Exactly. We can even get more people in on this too and get them to vote.


message 5: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Ok, so I probably missed the "lighthearted" books by a mile but they all looked interesting.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* They do look really interesting. This is an interesting way of finding a new book.


message 7: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Ok, so I sent an invitation to everyone on my list to vote. Easier that way.


message 9: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) So many books I want to read on this list


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Please add books y'all! We're open to suggestions.


message 11: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) How do you add books to the list?


message 12: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) wait I think I figured it out


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* There should be a tab at the top of the list that says "add books to this list"


message 14: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Wow. This grew fast :D


message 15: by Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (last edited Nov 10, 2014 05:57PM) (new)

Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* We should probably set a deadline of some sort. The one that is on top we start reading on xx/xx/xxxx?

So far Splintered is in the lead. I have a NASCAR announcer in my head doing the lineup.


message 16: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Yup, how about we leave it for two weeks. These two weeks I'm going to be busy so I don't know how much reading I can get done to be able to keep up. Basically I'll be free by Thanksgiving. Is that good for you?


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Thanksgiving sounds like a plan to me. I'll be out of town so checking in may be periodic.

Everybody else is welcome to join!


message 18: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Ok perfect. Thanksgiving it is.


message 19: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) I am writing a novel so hopefully I will be ahead of schedule by thanksgiving and be able to read some.


message 20: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Yay Roki.
The more the merrier.


And can I say I am freaking excited Splintered is in the lead.


message 21: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) Great that's awesome! Thanks. I love the cover of the book Splintered I think the second one looks awesome as well. Is it bad of me that I only want to read these books because of the covers. I have no clue what they are even about.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Splintered does look awesome.


message 23: by Pao (new)

Pao Splintered is really awesome ;). And wait till you to meet Morpheus ♥, the things he says...OMG

Melissa Baez Raquel wrote: "Great that's awesome! Thanks. I love the cover of the book Splintered I think the second one looks awesome as well. Is it bad of me that I only want to read these books because of the covers. I hav..."

I remember puting it on my to-read list just because of the cover and every friend I had rated it 4 or 5 stars. Never did I stop to even read what the story was about.


On another note, Brittain, I have already 8 of these that I've read, so I guess they get disqualified, right? Or maybe with some of them, if you've read them too we could just continue with the series. Let me know.

Melissa Baez Pao wrote: "Splintered is really awesome ;). And wait till you to meet Morpheus ♥, the things he says...OMG"

I've heard great things about him. Seriously counting the days to meet him :P


message 26: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) Just bought my copy of Splintered and am excited to start... Now I need to really get going on my novel so I can have time to read it.

Melissa Baez Raquel wrote: "Just bought my copy of Splintered and am excited to start... Now I need to really get going on my novel so I can have time to read it."

I got mine too. Book one, two and the novella. I couldn't help myself. :D


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Y'all don't start this early haha


message 29: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Haha no worries. I'm waiting for Thanksgiving


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Excellent. By the way, what's this I saw about a sex scene from Jericho Barrons point of view?


message 31: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Oh yeah. I think 1.5. It's not really a spoiler if you read it right after the first book.

And let me just say hawwwt


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* I can't find it anywhere! D:


message 33: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) Brittain wrote: "I can't find it anywhere! D:"

You have to buy it off of karen monings website it used to be free but its not anymore. It is so good!

And no worries from me on starting early


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Ah...thank you. I knew it was hidden somewhere.


message 35: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez That's what I was gonna say.


message 36: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez You know, The Bane Chronicles are on the list...yeah, I'm not reading those. Nope. I quit TMI. I can't do more Clare books.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* With you there Melissa. I stalled out on TMI too.

Did you watch North and South?


message 38: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez Yup:) I mean I saw his pic. How could I not? I started today. I only saw the first one though. But I plan on continuing and after that I'll start the book. Is it only four episodes though? That's really short


message 39: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) lol book 2 and 3 are very irritating I think. So I can understand why you would give up on TMI but after that they get better I think.

Also I like Magnus as a character. I think most of the stories take place before the TMI timeline but I can't be sure. What irritated you most about TMI?

It's short so you can watch it over and over :-)

I found myself rolling my eyes a lot and I was able to predict a lot of what was going on in the books. I'm generally a fickle and picky reader and I eventually stopped caring if the characters survived or not.


message 41: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) ahhh I can understand that.


message 42: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Baez To be honest? Everything.
The characters. I disliked everything about them. I couldn't root for them and in turn that just kills it for me in a book. Everyone sounds the same. I feel like they're cardboard cut outs.
It's boring pace. It's ridiculous villain. That whole Clary-Jace sibling thing which I can see from a mile away that it's just a plot twist. I feel it's too predictable.

And the thing is, I know Clare can write books I like. I loved TID. I really did but this was just horrible. Also I loved Magnus in TID. Here he just feels soooo off, I can't even.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Raquel wrote: "ahhh I can understand that."

I have a bad habit of getting to the last book in a series and not finishing it. I still haven't finished the Selection series or Divergent to name a few of the more popular ones.

Ha. Me too. I have like five series where I just stopped on the last one.


message 45: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) I have the bad habit of starting series but never seeing them past the first or second book depending.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Raquel wrote: "I have the bad habit of starting series but never seeing them past the first or second book depending."

I do that too. Generally, my rule is that if I'm not thinking about the characters a week after I finish the book, I don't move onto the next one.


message 47: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) What day are we going to be starting this? Are we going to start it on Thanksgiving day? I am so excited.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* I think we're planning on starting on Thanksgiving Day, so Thursday. I'm ready for this. Psyched for Splintered!


message 49: by Raquel (Rocki) (new)

Raquel (Rocki) Okay awesome just wanted to make sure so I didn't miss the read along thingy


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* Do we want to start a topic on the book or do we want to talk about it here on this list? Or we can talk about it on each others reviews. Any thoughts?
