Thanks Tessa, I actually was just looking up your rating as you posted, because I thought you'd posted about it!

:) It's just not as good as her other series have been. I probably have less sympathy because a lot of my family has his "issue" and to me, it just isn't that big of a deal.

I haven't started mine yet :/ (Love In English)

Me either

*hugs Renee*

I change my pick for Tessa to Arsen!

I'm not feeling Red Rising *shrugs* it took me 3 tries to read The Hunger Games and I loved it...

lol, I don't even own it. I only had a sample. I haven't read red rising or The Hunger Games yet either Ela. I do have Red Rising though. Actually, before December I have to read Brandon Sandberson's Mistborn. I told my sister in law she could read it after I was done. *hides* Back in August.

I'll buy it for you!

Lol Maybe one day. I honestly have to read a lot of books currently. Anne Bishop's Belladonna, Edge of Destiny, The Thief, Sea of Shadows... Which is why I'm reading none of them and reading a shiny from last week.

Haha Tessa. I feel you.

Tessa, lemme see if I can loan it to you when I get home.

*gasp* for shame!!!

The Hunger Games!!!!! Gah!!! I hate that genre....so not my thing...and I FREAKING LOVE that series.

In fact, I just read something today that said top ten kindle books sold ever and all 3 HG books were on it. Along with FSoG.

It won't let me lend it... boo... sorry Tessa, but I'd be willing to break my no-buy first couple of weeks of November too. LOL!

We should just all share one kindle account. It would be so much easier LOL!

What are you trying to loan to Tessa

Lol I am swamped. I went to read a book I just got on loan from the library and then got an email stating Moonshine had three more borrow days. I gotta avoid shinies!

Tessa ALONG WITH YOU HAVE TO READ ARSEN...

I was trying to loan her Arsen...LOL

:) I'll get it eventually. I really do have a lot I have to read. These books are becoming due. Though, okay, the loan from the library I have three weeks. It's just Seanan McGuire!

I liked the first Hunger Games book OK, although YA's not really my thing. But I tried reading the second one and I was over it by then and think I dnf'ed.

5++++ stars for me with One True Loves.....i just haven't written my review yet.

Arsen.....yeah, that one is a MUST read.

I gotta read One True Loves!

Leslie--YES, you do!

Maybe I will put it on Dec pick for me. I am just not sure if I will be in mood for crying. Robin made it sound like lots of tears.

Yes, you do Leslie it's fantastic, unforgettable.

I want to read it too but it is a bit too expensive for me at the moment - I have never read any of TJR's books as they usually have a high price point

I would never spend that much on a book!! I get TJRs books from library.

They are sooo worth it. Every single one.

I'm actually really getting into Red Rising and loving it...

Well you didn't miss much - I couldn't make it past 20%

Red Rising = 5 stars

OMG yay!!!!
