Kikijanika Last book I finished was Ruby Red (Precious Stone Trilogy, #1) by Kerstin Gier . I really liked it.

Jade Diamond (jadediamond) Finished Reading The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater.

This book took me some time to get into and i wasn't sure what to make of it as first, but I ended up Loving the Characters so much. The writing is what drew me in and made me fall in love with the characters. I really Enjoyed this book. I can definitely say that The Raven Cycle series has the potential of becoming a new favourite of mine.

The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater

Ashley  (mochi234) | 54 comments Just finished Three Dark Queens by Kendare Blake!!! I know the goodreads reviews are mostly not positive :/ But this book was great!! It's not an action fantasy, it's slow and I think that kind of build up worked for this book. Others may want the action right away, but I don't think immediately going into the fight would make much sense plot wise for the book. It was introducing the characters, their relationships with one another, and the whole crazy belief system these people have. So if you want an action fantasy I don't suggest it, but if you like the premise of the book and are fine with it being a bit slow to the punch highly recommend!!

Six months later is awesome!! I love being so in the narrators mind, you learn as she does! (since you obviously have great taste in books ;-P) What are you planning on reading next?!?

Natasha | 5 comments A Court of Mist and Fury I just finished this book and thought it was amazing. I never realised there were more being written after and im devastated to wait until next year :(


Bookcrazy ~ So what? I'm still a rock star~ | 43 comments Speaking of Courts, I just finished Court of Fives and it was really cool! Great world and the slightly archaic language didn't put me off (like it usually does) because the storyline moved fast and Jessamy is a great heroine.

Elaine | 16 comments Natasha, ACOMAF is prob my favorite book this year, i'm feeling your pain on the wait.


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

I just finished After You the Me Before You sequel. I didn't enjoy it at all and found it to be a very boring and confusing book. Nothing at all like the first book and in my opinion very disappointing giving the fact that I loved Me Before You.

I wouldn't really say it was :/ it was good anyway, but no magic (so far). The author called it a cross between little women and American ninja warrior so go figure, I guess. The real turn-on for me was Kalliarkos (the guy) and like I said her totally un-damsel-in-distress attitude. :)

Excellent book, highly recommended.

Elaine | 16 comments I've just finished feverborn. I loved the original darkfever series, and while the sequels have been good they have never been as good as the first 5 books.


message 28: by Zoe (new)

Zoe Heron | 33 comments I know this is SUPER late, but I just finished reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K Rowling and I now am onto, of course, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.


message 29: by Cordelianne (new)

Cordelianne I just finished Harry Potter and the Cursed child, I am not sure if I like it or not. Some parts were nice, while some other parts were just not making sense.

Elaine | 16 comments I just finished poison study by Maria v Snyder. I loved it. Entertaining, exciting story and enjoyable characters I was interested in. I'm looking forward to reading more books in the series


message 41: by Daly (new)

Daly Carry On by Rainbow Rowell.

Carry On blew me out of the water. I loved this book so much, it's probably my new favourite! I loved how there was lgbt romance in this, but the story was not based around that. It was just a fantasy novel about two people-who happen to both be male-falling in love.


message 42: by Nechama (new)

Nechama (teajoygreye) | 16 comments I just finished reading The Forgetting by Sharon Cameron and Spinning Starlight by R.C. Lewis .

Both were enjoyable.

The Forgetting was better written. I thought the very ending was a little neatly wrapped up, but it had good plot, characterization, and world building.

It was nice to see a poc heroine in Spinning Starlight. In fact, one of the few YA fantasy novels that isn't a white-dominant main race. I mean, you'd think since people can basically make up whatever races they want there would be more variety out there than there is, but no.

The book was a little unrealistic in parts. That every single person in her family (8 brothers) was a genius and inventing things by the time they were toddlers, for example. Also, the brothers were not fleshed out at all. They were basically interchangeable.

I love Maria Snyder. Not high lit - she has her flaws. But she does plot well, and you get attached to her flawed but strong characters.
