What are you reading? How do you like it so far?

I am currently reading Forest of Lost Souls (Shifter's University #2) by K.R. Thompson , so far it’s pretty good, with romance and shifters. My kind of book! ;)

I'm currently reading Victoria by Daisy Goodwin which isn't exactly my normal read, but it does have romance which makes me happy and I idolize Queen Victoria (and I loved the TV show)

And also The Crucible by Arthur Miller for English class.

The Star-Touched Queen (The Star-Touched Queen, #1) by Roshani Chokshi

It is absolutely wonderful, and I highly recommend it. It's definitely keeping me asking questions about what the heck is going on. xD

I adored Wonder Woman!


message 14: by Elyse (new)

Elyse (elysev) | 46 comments I am trying to finish Insurgent and it taking me forever ! I think I am not paying enough attention but I am so lost in the storyline, and the characters are not likeable at all.


message 15: by Alicia (new)

Alicia (plantisbooks) Well, I'm multi-reading, Trying to read as much as I can since I'm taking my last six classes in college.
The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater
It by Stephen King
Children of Eden by Joey Graceffa
The Hammer of Thor by Rick Riordan


message 16: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments So, my 3 day weekend readathon is over. I read a total of 1,551 pages!

I finished Before She Ignites (Fallen Isles Trilogy #1) by Jodi Meadows Fierce How Competing for Myself Changed Everything by Aly Raisman First & Then by Emma Mills Ever the Brave (A Clash of Kingdoms #2) by Erin Summerill

I enjoyed them all. First & Then got 3.5 stars from me. I liked her newest book, Foolish Hearts a lot better. This was her first book and the writing was a bit rough. But I eventually got into it. The characters were awesome, and it had a good ending.

The other 3 books all got 4 stars. Really fun reads!

I'm almost done with The Dazzling Heights (The Thousandth Floor #2) by Katharine McGee which is so addicting!

After that, its Nyxia (The Nyxia Triad, #1) by Scott Reintgen and Batman Nightwalker (DC Icons, #2) by Marie Lu


message 17: by Jeanette (new)

Jeanette (nettie1221) | 26 comments I am currently reading this as part of reading challenge for another group. Its only ok wish I had picked something else.
Rebel Belle (Rebel Belle, #1) by Rachel Hawkins Miss Mayhem (Rebel Belle, #2) by Rachel Hawkins Lady Renegades (Rebel Belle, #3) by Rachel Hawkins


message 18: by Rachael (new)

Rachael Bell-Irving (rbell-irving) | 12 comments Currently reading Six of Crows. It’s a perfect mix of the action, mystery and some hints of romance. The only challenge is I’m not familiar with the world, because I haven’t read the Grisha series, and so sometimes the terminology is a bit confusing


message 19: by Benjamin (new)

Benjamin Parker (brp_books) | 7 comments I’m currently reading Batman: Nightwalker and listening to Red Queen.


message 20: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments I finished The Dazzling Heights (The Thousandth Floor #2) by Katharine McGee liked it as much as the first! Very futuristic "Pretty Little Liars"

Also finished a reread of The Sorceress (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, #3) by Michael Scott loved it! I think this is my fave book of the series (so far)

Finished Batman Nightwalker (DC Icons, #2) by Marie Lu which was really good and I enjoyed a lot, although not quite as much as Wonder Woman. But still a good read!

And finished The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle and really loved these stories! Need to get the rest of the stories!

Started Nyxia (The Nyxia Triad, #1) by Scott Reintgen and I really like it so far!

For the readathon this weekend, I have a pretty ambitious TBR planned!

The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black Wicked Like a Wildfire (Hibiscus Daughter, #1) by Lana Popović Fireblood (Frostblood Saga, #2) by Elly Blake Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon The Legend of Wonder Woman Vol. 1 Origins by Renae De Liz

I need to get halfway through The Cruel Prince for a book club by Monday. The others I just want to get read as much as I can!


message 21: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments My reading weekend was pretty good! Not as great as last weekend, but I had more going on!

I finished Wicked Like a Wildfire (Hibiscus Daughter, #1) by Lana Popović and The Legend of Wonder Woman Vol. 1 Origins by Renae De Liz gave both 4 stars. Both enjoyable reads!

I'm halfway through The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black and I'm starting to get into it. It took a bit.

Also just a little way into Fireblood (Frostblood Saga, #2) by Elly Blake which is okay so far.


message 22: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments I finished The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black and I really enjoyed it! More than her other fey trilogy, not quite as much as The Darkest Part of the Forest, but still a good read!

Also read Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon and I just adored this, rated it 4.5 stars!

Right now I'm reading Nyxia (The Nyxia Triad, #1) by Scott Reintgen Fireblood (Frostblood Saga, #2) by Elly Blake Outlander (Outlander, #1) by Diana Gabaldon and rereading The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass, #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas

Ashley Chen | 27 comments I am currently reading The Traitor's Kiss by Erin Beaty. I just started.


message 24: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments I finished Nyxia (The Nyxia Triad, #1) by Scott Reintgen and I really enjoyed this one!

Started Sweethearts by Sara Zarr and I'm pretty hooked. The flashbacks this girl is having are HEARTBREAKING. I really am hoping for a good ending with this one, the main romantic relationship is not a typical one by any means.

Still reading Outlander (Outlander, #1) by Diana Gabaldon and I'm really liking it right now! Also rereading The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass, #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas

message 28: by DoeJoe (new)

DoeJoe (doejoe201) | 2 comments I have just finished reading Brave. I know its a trilogy but hoping for a fourth book. lol. Looking for another good read.


message 29: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments I finished The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli and I ended up really liking it. I really liked the realism, it the kids in it talked and acted just like teens today. And the ending was realistic as well.

Also finished Fireblood (Frostblood Saga, #2) by Elly Blake which was a good sequel, I liked it a bit better than the first. The last book comes out in June! Woot!

Almost done with my reread of The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass, #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas loving it, loving it!

Started Stay with Me (Wait for You, #3) by J. Lynn tonight and I can't put it down, its so addictive!

And also working on a beta read ;)


message 30: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 28 comments I recently finished:

Stay with Me (Wait for You, #3) by J. Lynn and I think this is my favorite of the series so far. 4 stars

The Proposal (Wait for You, #2.5) by J. Lynn which was such a sweet short story! 4 stars

Kissing in Italian (Flirting in Italian, #2) by Lauren Henderson 3.5 stars. I liked the conclusion to this one

Next I'm reading Geekerella by Ashley Poston and rereading A Wrinkle in Time (A Wrinkle in Time Quintet, #1) by Madeleine L'Engle

Allen (goodreadscomahh416) The Hush by John Hart . I like his other books better then this.


Katie (Melting Pages) (meltingpages) I'm about halfway through To Kill a Kingdom and I'm really enjoying it so far, but I probably shouldn't have picked it up right after finishing Daughter of the Siren Queen because now I feel like I'm on siren overload!

Rachael Bell-Irving (rbell-irving) | 12 comments Struggling through a reading block to try and start City of Bones. I know it’s supposed to be fantastic, but I’m having a hard time just sitting down and reading.
