Dawn (dawnv) | 4058 comments Five months into the year and it would be interesting to see what people like/dislike so far this year.

Please use this thread to post books that you loved and/or those that did not work out as expected. The book does not have to be published in 2017, but it would be best if you read it this year (2017).

List away :-)

Dawn (dawnv) | 4058 comments I just want to read a UF book that is amazing.

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 3123 comments Yeah, I haven't really come across a super amazing book in a long while.

I loved Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore Heart of Venom (Elemental Assassin, #9) by Jennifer Estep March Book One (March, #1) by John Lewis Burn Baby Burn by Meg Medina I have not been reading all UF this year.
Books I didn't especially like Dark Prince (Carpathians, #1) by Christine Feehan right now I am reading Remember Ben Clayton by Stephen Harrigan and I can't wait to be done with it.

They're had to find now that their numbers are dwindling.

I feel like there are more authors but the books just have the same plot over and over.

True as well. I guess I should say the self pub market is full. I even stumbled across a copy cat for one of my fave self pub UF authors.
