Challenge: 50 Books discussion

In 2015, I'm going to try limiting phone, IPad and computer use and pick up a book instead. My to-read list is insanely long:)

Ugh, those three things can be SUCH distractions! I tend to spend hours at my computer, then when I go to bed at night, realize I actually did *nothing* and could have spent all that time reading! I sympathize with you, and wish you tons of luck and willpower in 2015! :)

By the way, I moved your list to the F-J folder so we'll all be able to find it easily as the year progresses.

Thanks for putting my post in the right place....I was trying to create it on the abovementioned Iphone, so I'm not sure where it ended up :)

1. The Three by Sarah Lotz

Loved this book up until the ambiguous and somewhat disappointing ending.

2. Young God by Katherine Faw Morris

This book has been getting a lot of positive hype, but I found it to be rather terrible. Fortunately it was very short.

3. The Twelve by Justin Cronin

I really should have waited longer to read this second book in the trilogy. Now I just want to read the third immediately, but sadly it will not be out until later in the year.

4. The Fixer by T.E. Woods

5. In The Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken

This was a really great trilogy.

6. Red Rising by Pierce Brown

Almost a five star read for me. Very excited to read the next book.

7. V-Wars: Blood and Fire by Jonathan Maberry

8. Four Summoner's Tales

9. The Deep by Nick Cutter

I settled on three stars as a rating for this book because I couldn't decide if I loved or hated it. Super scary, but I would have been way more satisfied if Part 6 of the book was completely eliminated. I think it would have made for a better ending.

10. Golden Son by Pierce Brown

11. The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac by Sharma Shields

12. The Dead Lands by Benjamin Percy

13. The Walled City by Ryan Graudin

14. Milk Bar Life: Recipes & Stories by Christina Tosi

15. Surprise-Inside Cakes: Amazing Cakes for Every Occasion--with a Little Something Extra Inside by Amanda Rettke

16. An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

I think there would have been enough material in this story without adding the supernatural elements.

17. The Forgotten Room by Lincoln Child

18. Hand to Mouth: Living in Bootstrap America by Linda Tirado

Some interesting points, but the book felt repetitive and not well organized.

19. Afterparty by Daryl Gregory

20. Day Four by Sarah Lotz

21. Tin Men by Christopher Golden

22. Hostile Takeover by Shane Kuhn

23. The Good Girl by Mary Kubica

24. Black Chalk by Christopher J. Yates

25. The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi

26. The Book of Speculation by Erika Swyler

27. The Eternal World: A Novel by Christopher Farnsworth

28. Assassin's Code by Jonathan Maberry

29. The Masked Truth by Kelley Armstrong

30. Dead Ringers by Christopher Golden
