The YA Book Club discussion

Hi all-

I just finished reading Half-Blood and Pure by JenniferL. Armentrout. I know that they have a breed order and pures cannot mate with halfs, but my question is what would happen if two halfs reproduce? Their child wouldn't be a half-blood, would it? Just random thoughts while reading, haha.

I guess I should have continued reading the books and i would have gotten my answer... just started reading Deity... HA!

Lol. How are you liking them???!!!! I absolutely LOVED them!

I am loving them! It took me a while to get into them as the first book started out sounding a bit cheesy for me, but I stuck with it and was obsessed with the second book. I'm about a quarter through Deity now and very curious to see where all this is headed.

I'm assuming they'd be 'Half-Blood' aswell since neither parents were born as Pures - logic doesn't make sense when JLA calls them "half"bloods but just think of it like Dhampirs in the VA series :)

Yeah same I was skeptical with the first book but then I loved it!! I'm honestly just a sucker for any JLA book lol.

Omg I just got to the halfway point of Deity. This is by far the best book of the series so far!!

On an unrelated note- how do you directly reply to someone so it has the quote there??? It doesn't seem to allow me to do that

OMG YAY!!!! Cant wait til u finish!!!!!

Oh ok so under whatever post u want to reply to, there should be a green reply button in the bottom right corner of the response. Click it and ther u go!

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm

WHAT!

Welp. On to Apollyon!

Lolll. Ok so on the bottom right corner of this post, do you see a reply button??

Yep, got it!

About a quarter way through Apollyon now. The one thing I don't get though is that Seth just turned from night and day... like in Pure he was really likable, and then by the next book all of a sudden he was acting super villainous. I get that he was really anticipating her Awakening but... just seems like a swift change for me. I don't know.

Yayy!

Yeah, I know what you mean. Seth is a confusing character because you never know if you love or hate him. All I can say is that he goes through a lot of ish in the entire series but by the end I personally loved him.

Finished Apollyon! It went a bit slower for me overall but those final scenes... omg. Not sure how I feel about Alex and aiden's PDA either. It's a bit much. But I can get past that!

Starting Sentinel today. Woohoo!

YAYY! Wait who do you ship with Alex????

I ship Alex with Aiden, but I just feel like once they were officially together it became a bit heavy with the PDA. It's still supposed to be forbidden but other than a few weird looks from Marcus everyone is all just on board with it all of a sudden...? I mean they have bigger things to worry bout of course but even the strangers they come across don't seem to make a big deal about it, when for the first three books it meant death for them.

And with that I finish the covenant series!!!
I am satisfied with the ending. Definitely an interesting concept!

Sorry for the late response 😅
Ohhhhhh I get what you mean. For me I kinda looked at like their time together was a reprieve from all the chaos. And I'm a sucker for romance in a book loll. But totally get what you're saying. It was still a good series nonetheless.

YAYYY YOU FINISHED!!!! Do you plan on reading the Titan series. Its a spinoff series about Seth.
Oh Seth...*swoon*

Nothing wrong with a little romance!! Haha, thanks for following along as I read them~ it's nice to have someone else to talk about it with!

Really?! A spinoff?!!! Man...my to-read list keeps getting longer and longer LOL! Now I've just started reading the second book of the Unearthly series by Cynthia Hand. If you love some romance in a book, these might be worth your read. :)

Of course! No problem! Always fun to follow along when you're reading a great series. ;)

LOL. My tbr list is never ending too. And yeah, I think the first book is called The Return. It's actually really good. Well imo. I've heard of the Unearthly series! I was gonna read it but never got to it. Are they worth it??

Yea, i would say so. The first book started out a little slowly but took an unexpected turn. I am enjoying the second so far. :)

Hmmmmm. Okay I might read it then... :)
